Numerically generating topology of the liner finish in internal combustion engines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
Internal combustion (IC) engines are broadly utilized today. The friction caused by piston rings in IC engines contributes around 20% of the mechanical friction losses. The liner finish is the most critical parameter to ...
The dynamic behavior of nylon and polyester rope under simulated towing conditions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)
Spheroidization of iron powders by radiative heat transfer
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
The Effect of Co on the Deformation Response of Fe-Mn Alloys
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)
Fe-Mn alloys are well studied and exhibit several interesting responses to deformation which lead to the possibility of desirable mechanical properties for many engineering applications. The addition of other elements to ...
Effects of Strain on Activated-Aluminum–Water Reactions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-09)
Activated aluminum is a fuel source that promises safe hydrogen energy storage with volumetric energy densities twice that of diesel fuel and 45 times that of lithium-ion batteries. Aluminum is activated when liquid eutectic ...
A first principles computational study of ZnO/PbTiO₃ as a tunable catalyst for CO₂ conversion
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
Due to its role in climate change, there is great interest in finding ways to take advantage of the vast amount of waste CO₂ we produce by its conversion to useful substances. This approach is currently impractical due to ...
Characterization of anodic bonding
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Anodic bonding is a common process used in MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) device fabrication and packaging. Polycrystalline chemical vapor deposited (CVD) silicon carbide (SiC) is emerging as a new MEMS device and ...
Design, build and test of an axial flow hydrokinetic turbine with fatigue analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
OpenProp is an open source propeller and turbine design and analysis code that has been in development since 2007 by MIT graduate students under the supervision of Professor Richard Kimball. In order to test the performance ...
