The characteristics performance of the small quadcopter was measured in a wind tunnel. effect propellers on lift and drag frame has been found. descent stage investigated numerically by RANS approximation. calculations allowed determining interference between from propeller with element. A significant vortex ring state

In Japan, several projects to increase train speed are underway, requiring a new generation pantograph that achieves further reduction in aerodynamic noise. However, as reduction of pantograph noise usually conflicts with the stabilization of its lift force characteristics, a number of experiments have to be conducted to develop a new type of pantograph. The aeroacoustic and lift force characte...

This study investigated the performance and aeroelastic characteristics of a wind turbine blade based on strongly coupled approach (two-way fluid structure interaction) to simulate the transient FSI1 responses of HAWT2. Aerodynamic response was obtained by 3D CFD-URANS approach and structural response was obtained by 3D Finite element method. Aeroelastic responses of the blade were obtained by ...

Adjustments to cricothyroid and thyroarytenoid muscle activation are critical to the control of fundamental frequency and aerodynamic aspects of vocal fold vibration in humans. The aerodynamic and physical effects of these muscles are not well understood and are difficult to study in vivo. Knowledge of the contributions of these two muscles is essential to understanding both normal and disorder...

this work aimed to prepare a nanoemulsion preparation containing budesonide and assess its aerodynamic behavior in comparison with suspension of budesonide. in-vitro aerodynamic performance of the corresponding micellar solution (ie. nanoemulsion preparation without oil) was investigated too. nanoemulsions of almond oil containing budesonide, as a hydrophobic model drug molecule, were prepared ...

An interesting characteristic of avian gliders is their ability to soar or remain aloft without flapping their wings for long periods. There are two ways to do this. In static soaring a bird maintains or gains altitude by gliding in air that has an upward velocity component equal to or greater than the bird's sinking speed. In dynamic soaring a bird uses changes in the horizontal wind-velocity ...

The main objective of the “INNWIND.EU” project is to investigate and demonstrate innovative designs for 10-20MW offshore wind turbines and their key components, such as lightweight rotors. In this context, the present paper describes the development of two new airfoils for the blade root region. From the structural point of view, the root is the region in charge of transmitting all the loads of...
