In this study, a finite element model was developed to analyze the mechanical behavior of repairing aluminum 2024-T3 structures subjected to complex shear-shear loads using composite patch repair techniques. The study aimed to investigate the effect of different patch sequences on the mechanical behavior of the repaired structure, including the ori...

In rocket engine nozzle design, flow separation is essential and, given the high temperatures and pressures in the thrust chamber, regenerative cooling is critical for maintaining the nozzle wall's integrity. This passage provides a summary of an in-depth numerical analysis of boundary layer separation and heat transfer within a 30°-15&A...

Aerodynamic drag is still one of the main challenges facing the automotive industry. The design engineers are trying to develop novel techniques that could help to control the flow and optimize the shape of a vehicle to make it able to increase the base pressure drag at the wake region. The pressure drag is one of the main contributors to the aerod...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is one of the most prominent cardiovascular diseases, with almost 1 in 500 people suffering from it. It is of great importance for this disease to be detected in a timely manner, so that patients can be provided with an adequate therapy. This is also important for monitoring the future development of the disease so that ...

Recent studies have attempted to find methods and techniques that enable the development of heat transfer within thermal transformers. For this purpose, this paper includes a numerical simulation of a non-Newtonian fluid inside a chamber with four hot bodies. The chamber is exposed to a magnetic field of constant and uniform intensity. Also, the up...

The introduction of pressure piping increasingly requires the use of efficient materials which must withstand both high hydrostatic pressures, high mechanical loads and high thermal gradients. At nuclear power plants, piping systems are subjected to high pressures (up to 60 MPa). The occurrence of cracks and their possible spread is one of the seri...

The results of a computational experiment on the analysis of the effectiveness of placing stiffeners on the outer side of the shell structure are presented. The calculations were carried out on the basis of a geometrically nonlinear mathematical model that takes into account transverse shears and orthotropy of the material. The calculation algorith...

In this article we present an experimental and numerical study of the behavior of the boundary layer type viscous flow in the presence of the thermal effect. The flow was held in a three-dimensional field with a uniform infinite velocity in the case of an adiabatic wall with heat input. The presented experimental work was performed in the Thermal L...
