Experimental investigations were conducted to uncover the impact of cavitation control?through the use of biomimetic riblets on cavitating flows around a circular cylinder. First, the dynamics of cavitation in the flow behind a finite cylinder (without r...

Suspended and deposited sediments in streams can interfere with filter-feeding caddisfly larvae by reducing feeding sites and feeding efficiency, potentially lowering the densities, growth rates, and secondary production of an important trout prey. We co...

Due to their toxicity, lack of bioaccumulation and biodegradability, and ease of binding to sediments, heavy metals are considered the main pollutants of rivers. It is, therefore, necessary to control and monitor these pollutants. The present study analy...

Off-design condition of a rotor blade cascade with and without platform cooling was experimentally investigated. The ability of the gas turbine to operate down to 50% to 20% of its nominal intake air flow rate has an important consequence in the change i...

Numerous sources of overtopping and flood events suggest different cross-sectional land characteristics of the river and urban river water systems. Multiple stages of floodplains in compound channels are viable in urban areas to facilitate bank slope sta...

This study targets determining impellers of impeller-only axial fans with an optimal hub-to-tip ratio for the highest achievable total-to-static efficiency. Differently from other studies, a holistic approach is chosen. Firstly, the complete class of the...
