Preliminary Design Of A Pressurization System For Small Bipropellant Rocket Engines
(Aerospace Engineering, 2012-04-11)
A study was conducted on the feasibility of developing a device or system that would improve the performance of small, bipropellant rockets through pressurization of the propellants. Due to the limitations in the space ...
Evaporative Cooling Performance Of A Brazed Microporous Coating On An Aluminum Surface
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
The effect of an aluminum microporous coating on evaporative cooling performance was studied using distilled water as the working fluid. The aluminum microporous coating was fabricated by brazing aluminum particles to an ...
Determination Of Factors To Improve Effectiveness Of Triangulation Members For A Formula SAE Race Car Frame
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-07-25)
This thesis suggests which factors have significant effect on the torsional and flexural stiffness of a space frame without contributing excessively to its weight. These factors are used as design variables to display ...
Stable Reference Trajectory Modification For Handling Actuator Failure In Control Systems
(Aerospace Engineering, 2012-04-11)
The issue of rapidly reconfiguring the reference trajectory under unanticipated actuator failures in order to regain lost performance or aircraft handling qualities is explored. The failures detected in real-time are ...
Numerical Study Of Drop Formation From Dripping To Jetting
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
The formation of liquid droplet from a capillary tube has been examined using numerical simulations. The dimensions of the capillary tube and the flow velocity have been varied to observe the regimes of drop formation. ...
Mode Truncation Analysis In Forced Response Of Structural Dynamics
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Mode truncation in Modal analysis is an important problem and should be addressed with an effective truncation criterion. The truncation errors are considered as error forces and these error limits can be used to select ...
Thermal Behavior Of Dielectric Materials During Rapid Heating
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-07-25)
The objective of this research is to understand the temperature variation in dielectric materials of different geometry. The work is divided into three major segments. The Thermal Wave model has been taken into consideration ...
Heat Transfer In Triangular Ducts With Axial Conduction,containing Porous Medium
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
The objective of this study is to find a numerical solution for the velocity and temperature field in a duct of triangular cross-section area. A fully saturated porous medium is considered to be present in the duct. The ...
Analysis Of Laminated Tubular Structure Under Torsion
(Aerospace Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Laminated composite shells in particular are prominent in bearing various types of loads and are hence used in many engineering structures. The analysis of laminated composites is quite complicated since the material ...
