Local heat transfer distribution in a triangular channel with smooth walls and staggered ejection holes
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Transient liquid crystal experiments have been conducted to determine the distribution of the local heat transfer coefficient in a triangular channel with smooth wails and ejection holes along one or two of the wails. The ...
Effect of environmental exposure on the stiffness and energy loss properties of nitrile elastomers
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Elastomers play an important role in today's society. Elastomers, in many applications, are exposed to elevated temperatures and environments that can alter material properties. All to often the elastomer itself may be ...

Pressure and momentum field investigation of a centrifugal pump through dynamic loading of a semi-open impeller
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
A study was performed to investigate the variation in the forces and moments acting on the front and back sides of a semi-open impeller. Three rotational speeds and five volumetric flow rates for each speed were identified ...
Effects of a platinum-based fuel additive on the performance of a single cylinder research diesel engine

Route to, and control of chaos in multidimensional systems
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
The goal of this thesis is to analyze the dynamic behavior of a given nonlinear system and then control the chaotic behavior of the system within some ranges of the parameters. In the first part of this thesis, we study ...
Experimental evaluation of a metal-mesh bearing damper in a high speed test rig
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Metal mesh is a commercially available material used in many applications including seals, heat shields, filters, gaskets, aircraft engine mounts, and vibration absorbers. This material has been tested in the Turbomachinery ...
