Application of Computer Technology in Advanced Material Science and Processing

Computer technology is an actual system model, which is largely unaffected by experimental conditions, time and space constraints, and is of great flexibility. Nowadays, computer technology has thoroughly penetrated in the various areas of material processing and research, which becomes one of the important frontiers in the field of material manufacturing industry. At the same time, material sc...

outdoor microclimate and pavement material - case study in university site

pavement materials have great impact on heat island control under the urban canyon layer. understanding the properties of pavement materials can help to reduce the heat island effect. introducing the main properties of pavement surfaces affecting sol-air temperature and mean radiant temperature - such as albedo, permeability, conductivity, thickness, emissivity, irradiation and convective air f...

19th AIAA Advanced Measurement and Ground Testing Technology Conference

A series of experiments has been conducted in the NASA HYPULSE Expansion Tube, in both CO2 and air test gases, in order to obtain data for comparison with computational results and to assess the capability for performing hypervelocity heat-transfer studies in this facility. Heat-transfer measurements were made in both test gases on 70 deg sphere-cone models and on hemisphere models of various r...
