A free-wake method is used to simulate the wake from retractable, jointed wings. The method serves to complement existing experimental studies that visualise flying animal wakes. Simulated wakes are shown to be numerically convergent for a case study of the Rock Pigeon in minimum power cruising flight. The free-wake model is robust in simulating wakes for a range of wing geometries and dynamics...

Buchitic glassy rocks appear within the skarn of contact metamorphic aureole of Feshark intrusive complex situated 30 km northeast of Isfahan. Intrusive complex is a multistage intrusion . Noritic gabbro is the first inttrusion which is invaded later on by a granitic melt. Granitic melt has metasomatically altered the gabbro and as a consequence a suite of hybrid rocks like monzogabbro, m...

The failure probability and strength of jointed fractured rock mass under water pressure action place important constraints on the safety stability engineering. In this study, two calculation models for joint rupture shear slip are established according to different relative sizes working conditions, effects fractal dimension, pressure, number cracks analyzed. most unfavorable dip angle shear-s...
