A Comparative Study Of Different Numerical Techniques Used For Solving Incompressible Fluid Flow Problems
(2010-06-03)
Past studies (primarily on steady state problems) that have compared the penalty and the velocity-pressure finite element formulations on a variety of problems have concluded that both methods yield solutions of comparable ...
Experimental And Theoretical Studies In Fatigue Damage Modeling
(2010-12-07)
This thesis has two parts.
In the first part, we use the results of new fatigue experiments conducted with variable load levels as well as variable stress ratios to critically assess three (two old and one relatively ...
Flow Over A Circular Cylinder With A Flexible Splitter Plate
(2010-07-08)
Previous work on rigid splitter plates in the wake of a bluff body has shown that the primary vortex shedding can be suppressed for sufficiently long splitter plates. In the present work, we study the problem of a flexible ...
