(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Air-water interaction flow between two parallel flat plates, known as Couette flow, is simulated by direct numerical simulation. The two flowing fluids are coupled through continuity of velocity and shear stress condition ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis used vortex lattice lifting line theory to model an axisymmetrical-ducted propeller with no gap between the duct and the propeller. The theory required to model the duct and its interaction with the propeller ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The flexible metal to metal face seals (FMMFS) has unique features including much more flexibility in the circumferential direction than in the radial direction, identical rotating and stationary seals, and a loading ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)New Scientific missions call for emerging propulsion technologies capable of fine tuning a satellite's relative position and cancelling small disturbances. One candidate technology that holds promise for these type of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a process used to deposit nanometer scale films for use in nano electronics. A typical experimental reactor consist of a warm wall horizontal flow tube, a single disc mounted halfway down ...
