Impact of a reverse delta type add-on device on the flap-tip vortex of a wing by Altaf, Afaq, Tan, Boon Thong, Omar, Ashraf Ali, Asrar, Waqar

“…The effect of interactions of vortices produced by an outboard flap-tip of a half-span wing (NACA 23012 in landing configuration) and a slender reverse delta type add-on device, placed in the proximity of the outboard flap-tip, on the upper surface of the half-span wing is investigated using Particle Image Velocimetry in a closed loop low speed wind tunnel. …”

NN approach and its comparison with NN-SVM to beta-barrel prediction by Kazemian, Hassan, Yusuf, Syed A., White, Kenneth, Grimaldi, Cédric Maxime

“…Current beta barrel prediction methodologies present intermittent misclassifications resulting in mismatch in the number of membrane spanning regions within amino-acid sequences. To address the problem, this research embarks upon a NN technique and its comparison with hybrid- two-level NN-SVM methodology to classify inter-class and intra-class transitions to predict the number and range of beta membrane spanning regions. …”

Analytical Finite Element Formulation of Non-uniform Euler-Bernoulli Beam by Sulaeman, Erwin, Kapania, Rakesh

“…To satisfy some requirements, it is not uncommon that the beam has to posses a non-uniform distribution of its cross section along the span. A common approach to analyze such a structure is by using a variational principle to develop the element stiffness matrix. …”
