Computation fluid dynamics on drag reduction II by Zang, Bin

“…Both the flow pattern in the form of velocity contours and the quantitative drag coefficient are extracted and compared in several ways: single dimple along the wall with depth (h/D = 0.21); multiple (three) dimples along the wall with different separation distances between adjacent dimples; single dimple but with several other h/D ratios (i.e. 0.25, 0.14, 0.10, 0.08). …”

Turbulent Flow over a Flexible Wall Undergoing a Streamwise Traveling Wavy Motion by Shen, Lian, Zhang, Xiang, Yue, Dick K.P., Triantafyllou, Michael S.

“…For negative c/U, we find that flow separation is enhanced and a large drag force is produced. For positive c/U, the results show that as c/U increases from zero, the separation bubble moves further upstream and away from the wall, and is reduced in strength. …”

Engineering culture: logics of optimization in music, games, and apps by Morris, JW, Prey, R, Nieborg, DB

“…Through comparative cases of music, games, and apps that draw on trade press and industry discourse, institutional and financial analysis, and select interviews with musicians, we consider various forms of, and strategies for, what we call cultural optimization. …”

An experimental and simulation study of chip transportation behaviour in gundrilling by Tnay, Guan Leong

“…From the experiments, terminal velocities of typical gun drill chips at different range of particle Reynolds number were determined to construct the unique drag curve. Based on the findings, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical model was developed to predict the lateral drag forces with respect to the particle Reynolds number. …”

‘I don’t care who joins my choir’: investigating attitudes to diversity and inclusivity in lower- and upper-voice choirs in the United Kingdom by MacGregor, E

“…We conclude by making initial recommendations for how choirs might recognise and address such challenges, and call for a shift in the research agenda to pay greater attention to exclusionary factors in amateur and community music participation…”

Slow viscous flow around two particles in a cylinder by Yao, Xin, Marcos, Wong, Teck Neng

“…The two solutions are performed in an iterated framework using the method of reflections. We compute the drag force and torque coefficients of the particles which are dependent on the distances among the cylinder wall and the two particles. …”

Essays on the market for corporate bonds by Levonmaa, A

“…Using intraday transaction data from the TRACE database, I analyse over 1,000 of the most liquid corporate bonds, a total of 9.5 million trades. Drawing on similar studies of other markets, the relationship between returns and order flow is modelled using a vector autoregression, and the information content of a trade is measured as the long-run price impact of a shock to order flow. …”
