The objective of this paper is to implement a reverse engineering process to inspect the geometry of a flow meter rotor and make recommendations to improve the performance of the rotor. The process includes utilizing a laser scanner arm and Geomagic software to generate a three-dimensional (3D) computer model of the flow meter rotor and compare it with the original Computer Aided Drafting (CAD)...

most of river engineering problems are complicated and need to be analyzed by three dimensional models of flow and sediment transport. considering the fact that computers and numerical methods with great ability of flow and sediment transport simulation are developing quickly, using numerical modeling by engineers is inevitable. nevertheless, before application, numerical models need to be veri...

Pad and fan cooling systems are the most popular evaporative cooling system, especially in the floral industry of tropical and subtropical regions. Microsoft Windows based software written in MATLAB was developed as a teaching/research tool for designing pad and fan systems. This software incorporates information for 4 models of commonly used evaporative cooling pad, fan curves for 9 models of ...

In this publication, the interactive planning and reconstruction of cranial 3D Implants under the medical prototyping platform MeVisLab as alternative to commercial planning software is introduced. In doing so, a MeVisLab prototype consisting of a customized data-flow network and an own C++ module was set up. As a result, the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software prototype guides a user through ...

This work details the development of a novel 3D (3-dimensional) printing system for use in the fabrication of complex biological tissue constructs. The printing system incorporates a microfluidic print head that uses coaxial flow focusing to generate, crosslink, and dispense a microfiber of sodium alginate, and a 3D positioning system to pattern the dispensed microfiber using fused filament fab...

In this study the feasibility of 3D FEM simulation of the orbital forming process was investigated by evaluating the simulation time. Commercial FEA software DEFORM 3D v4.0 that has an efficient computation algorithm for simulating incremental forming process was used for the simulations and the savings in computation time was determined. In order to provide reliable flow stress for the simulat...
