Definition Of An Asymmetric Domain For Intercrystalline Misorientation In Cubic Materials In The Space Of Euler Angles, Brent L. Adams, Junwu Zhao
Definition Of An Asymmetric Domain For Intercrystalline Misorientation In Cubic Materials In The Space Of Euler Angles, Brent L. Adams, Junwu Zhao
Faculty Publications
The authors wish to acknowledge the support of the United States Department of Energy, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under grant No. DE-FG02-85ER45203. Critical review by Professor Dorian Hatch of the Physics Department at Brigham Young University is gratefully acknowledged. A new asymmetric domain for intercrystalline misorientation is defined in the space of Euler angles for materials exhibiting cubic (Oh point-group) lattice symmetry. The invariant measure for this new domain is nearly constant; this is in significant contrast to the previous domain defined by MacKenzie [Biornetrika (1958), 45, 229-240]. Distribution functions in the misorientation can now be represented with greater …

Radiant Barriers: A Question And Answer Primer, Florida Solar Energy Center, Philip Fairey
FSEC Energy Research Center®
Attic radiant barriers made of aluminum foil are becoming a popular way for homeowners to save energy and money in Southern states. They are increasing in popularity for two reasons. First, tests by the Florida Solar Energy Center and other groups show that they work. Second, manufacturers are improving the quality of radiant barrier materials.
To most homeowners, attic radiant barriers are a new energy conservation concept; many of them have questions about how radiant barriers work and how to use them. This Energy Note answers some of the most commonly asked questions. It also recommends ways to install radiant …
A Turbulence Model For The Heat Transfer Near Stagnation Point Of A Circular Cylinder, Mounir B. Ibrahim
A Turbulence Model For The Heat Transfer Near Stagnation Point Of A Circular Cylinder, Mounir B. Ibrahim
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Publications
A one-equation low-Reynolds number turbulence model has been applied successfully to the flow and heat transfer over a circular cylinder in turbulent cross flow. The turbulence length-scale was found to be equal 3.7y up to a distance 0.05δ and then constant equal to 0.185δ up to the edge of the boundary layer (wherey is the distance from the surface and δ is the boundary layer thickness).
The model predictions for heat transfer coefficient, skin friction factor, velocity and kinetic energy profiles were in good agreement with the data. The model was applied for Re ≤250,000 and Tu∞ …

FSEC Energy Research Center®
This is the final report of ASHRAE research project 448-RP "Building Pressure Distribution for Natural Ventilation" initiated in October 1985. The objective of the research was to review the worldwide data on building pressure coefficient and to assimilate the data for use in hourly calculation of natural ventilation airflow rates in buildings. This report is organized in two parts. Part 1 is written for the user who wants to use the information. Part 2 provides the background and research data analysis which was conducted to come up with the Part 1 information.

The Use Of Ultrasound Imaging In The In-Vivo Determination Of Normal Human Arterial Compliance, Lauren I. Stratouly, Paul A. Cardullo, Frederick A. Anderson Jr., William W. Durgin, H. Brownell Wheeler
Office of the Provost Scholarship
Elastic properties of major arteries were measured in vivo in ten normal volunteers, age 26 to 44 years (mean = 32 years). A B-mode ultrasound imager was used to noninvasively measure mean diameter and pulsatile diameter change at five locations along the main arteries in the abdomen and the lower extremities. Together with pulsatile pressure (measured by the auscultatory method), strain (ε), compliance (C) and the pressure-strain elastic modulus (Ep l/C) were calculated. Ep increased significantly along the arterial tree; mean values (x105 N/m-2 ) were: 0.99 aorta, 1.21 common iliac artery (CIA), 1.43 common femoral artery (CFA), …

Tone Generation By Flow Past Deep Wall Cavities, D. D. Erickson, William W. Durgin
Tone Generation By Flow Past Deep Wall Cavities, D. D. Erickson, William W. Durgin
Office of the Provost Scholarship
Flow past deep wall cavities exhibits strong interaction with the standing wave system in the cavity. The shear layer separating the exterior flow from the cavity flow supports instabilities which excite the normal cavity modes. In turn, the cavity wave system reinforces the instabilities. Experimental studies have shown that two distinct instability modes are encountered as the external velocity is increased. The pressure coefficient versus Strouha1 number behavior reveals two maxima which correspond to different instability modes of the shear layer. Flow visualization studies have shown that these modes correspond to distinct shear 1ayer vortex structures. At high velocities, single …

Thermomechanical Design Criteria For Zr02-Y203 Coated Surfaces, J. Padovan, Benjamin T.F. Chung, Glen E. Mcdonald, Robert C. Hendricks
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Research
Thermocycling of ceramic-coated turbomachine components produces high thermomechanical stresses that are mitigated by plasticity and creep but aggravated by oxidation, with residual stresses exacerbated by all three. These residual stresses, coupled with the thermocyclic loading, lead to high compressive stresses that cause the coating to spall. In the paper a ceramic-coated gas path seal is modeled with consideration given to creep, plasticity, and oxidation. The resulting stresses and possible failure modes are discussed.
Energy Transmission Into The Human Hand From Vibrating Tools, Douglas D. Reynolds
Energy Transmission Into The Human Hand From Vibrating Tools, Douglas D. Reynolds
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Research
A method for calculating power transmitted to the hands of operators who use vibrating hand tools is presented. Results that relate to a comprehensive multidiscipline NIOSH field study of several hundred chipper and grinder workers who used pneumatic hand tools are discussed. These results indicated that the total power in the frequency range of 6.3 to 1000 Hz transmitted to the hand ranged from 1080 to 7230 J/s for the chisel and from 0.852 to 157 J/s the handle of chipping hammers. For pneumatic grinders the power transmitted to the hands of the tool operators was in the range of …
The Force On A Lattice Defect In An Elastic Body, R. C. Batra
The Force On A Lattice Defect In An Elastic Body, R. C. Batra
Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
It is shown that the force on a lattice defect in an elastic body is, like the force on a disclination in a nematic liquid crystal, a real force which, for equilibrium, must be balanced by an external force applied to the closed surface enclosing the defect. © 1987 Martinus Nijhoff Publishers.

Automated Acoustic Intensity Measurements And The Effect Of Gear Tooth Profile On Noise, William J. Atherton, Adam Pintz, David G. Lewicki
Automated Acoustic Intensity Measurements And The Effect Of Gear Tooth Profile On Noise, William J. Atherton, Adam Pintz, David G. Lewicki
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Publications
Acoustic intensity measurements were made at NASA Lewis Research Center on a spur gear test apparatus. The measurements were obtained with the Robotic Acoustic Intensity Measurement System developed by Cleveland State University. This system provided dense spatial positioning, and was calibrated against a high quality acoustic intensity system. The measured gear noise compared gearsets having two different tooth profiles. The tests evaluated the sound field of the different gears for two speeds and three loads. The experimental results showed that gear tooth profile had a major effect on measured noise. Load and speed were found to have an effect on …
