The bursting phenomenon consists in the switch of a laminar separation bubble from a short to a long configuration. In the former case, reduced effects on profile pressure distribution are typically observed with respect to the attached condition. On the...

The conversion of solar irradiance into electricity by a photovoltaic module (PV) is 6? 7% of the incoming energy from the sun depending on the type of technology and the environmental parameters. More than 80% of incoming energy from the sun is reflecte...

In surge protection, low-head profiles are deemed a challenge in pump failure events since they are prone to severe negative pressure surges that require an uneconomical surge vessel volume. A hybrid surge vessel with a dipping tube can provide required ...

Snow sampling, either by inserting a tube through the entire snowpack or by taking samples from the vertical profile, is widely applied to measure the snow depth, density, and snow water equivalent (SWE). A comparative study of snow-sampling methods was ...

Groundwater discharge from high tropical islands can have a significant influence on the biochemistry of reef ecosystems. Recent studies have suggested that a portion of groundwater may underflow the reefs to be discharged, either through the reef flat o...

The double-skin roof has been applied in the design of modern granaries for energy saving. Compared with the ordinary parallel double plate, the double skin composed of an inclined upper plate can effectively improve the situation of a ?hot roof? through...

Due to the entrapment of compressible air, the process of a flat plate impact on water is complicated, which cannot be reproduced using incompressible simulations. To investigate such a slamming process, an accuracy compressible fluid?structure interacti...

While transcranial ultrasound imaging is a promising diagnostic modality, it is still hindered due to phase aberration and multiple scattering caused by the skull. In this paper, we compare near-field phase-screen modeling (PS) to a geometry-based phase ...
