The major problematic soils in semi-arid regions include expansive soils and collapsible soils. These two types of soils cause problems and are hazardous for buildings when moisture is introduced following a dry or semi-dry season. In order to assess the...

Entrapped air in the chambers of a T-girder bridge generates a considerably large vertical force which is harmful to the safety of the bridge superstructure. The contribution of the entrapped air is not considered when calculating flood force in the rela...

In the context of aircraft aerodynamics, the compressibility of air flowing around the aircraft must always be considered. This fact brings with it one inconvenience: to evaluate the velocity of the flowing air (airspeed), it is necessary to know its tem...

Aerostatic bearings are attractive, with minimal friction losses, high durability, and environmental friendliness. However, such designs have a number of disadvantages, including low load-bearing capacity and high compliance due to high air compressibili...

Modeling free surface flows in a CFD context typically requires an incompressible approach along with a formulation to account for the air?water interface. Commonly, pressure-correction algorithms combined with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method are used t...

Air compressibility effects play an important role in large-scale Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy converters. Air compressibility is however not scalable with Froude similarity law. An existing scaling method enables correctly reproducing the ...

Recently, pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs), a lightweight and high-compliant actuator, have been increasingly used in assistive rehabilitation robots. PAM-based applications must overcome two inherent drawbacks. The first is the nonlinearity due to th...

Numerical modeling of multi-element airfoil's aerodynamics employs the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations of incompressible environment, which are related via a single-parametric differential turbulence model by Spalart-Allmaras. The system of ini...
