Fiber-optic Pressure Sensor For Time-of-flight Measurements In A Shock Wave
(Aerospace Engineering, 2010-11-01)
Fiber-optic sensors are widely employed to detect pressures and temperatures precisely. In particular, MEMS-based Ber-optic sensors are immune to electromagnetic interference but may have limitations at high temperatures ...
An Integration Of A Modern Flight Control System Design Technique Into A Conceptual Design Stability And Controls Tool, AeroMech
(Aerospace Engineering, 2010-11-01)
The aircraft conceptual design (CD) phase is the most abstract, thus challenging phase of the entire aircraft design process. It is the responsibility of the CD engineer to identify and then to explore various aircraft ...
Experimental Study Of The Effects Of Thermally Conductive Microporous Coatings On Low Heat Flux Pool And Flow Boiling
(Mechanical Engineering, 2010-11-01)
This study examines the effect of the Thermally Conductive Micro-porous Coating (TCMC) developed at the University of Texas at Arlington, on an extended length heater in flow boiling. The study was performed with application ...
Stress Analysis Of Laminated Composite Beam With I-section
(Aerospace Engineering, 2010-07-19)
The advantage of material properties and flexibility of choosing material have made composite materials a primary preference for structural application. Unlike isotropic materials, the parametric study of composite beams ...

Thermal Management Of Outside Plant Telecommunication Cabinets: Design And CFD Modeling Methodology
(Mechanical Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Over the years there has been a steady increase in the number of transistors being packed into the same footprint of a die, which has led to an increase in the power densities of electronics. The thermal management of ...
Effects Of Curvature On The Stresses Of A Curved Laminated Beams Subjected To Bending
(Mechanical Engineering, 2010-07-19)
In aircraft structural applications, curved laminated beam structures are often used as part of the internal structure. If the curved composite structure is subjected to bending that tends to flatten or compress the ...
Development Of An Optical Fiber-based Corrosion Detection Sensor Based On Laser Light Reflection
(Mechanical Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Corrosion plays a detrimental effect on the structural integrity of many engineering structures. It can compromise the safe operation of these structures by forming corrosion pits that deteriorates the structural surfaces ...
Dynamic Thermal Management Of Multi Core Processors Using Core Hopping
(Aerospace Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Multi core processors are the order of the day today. The demand for greater levels of performance and the consequent increase in design complexity have rendered the single core processor obsolete and resulted in more cores ...
