Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAluminum Powder and Zwitrionic Surfactants as Drag Reducing Agents in Pipe LinesHayder A. Abdul Bari, Rosli Bin Mohd Yunus, Tania Suhail HadiProblem statement: One of the most power consuming sector in the industry is the liquid transportation through pipelines due to the turbulent mode the liquids are transported with. Drag reducing agents were used as a solution for the pumping power losses in pipelines. One of the inportant drag reducing agents suggested to improve the flow in pipelines are the suspended … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Wing Tip Flow Around a Low Aspect Ratio Wing at Low Flight Speeds Using OpenFOAM® and Parallel ProcessingNikolaos Konstantinos Lampropoulos, Ioannis Eleftherios SarrisIn the present study, the effect of the wing tip geometry on the aerodynamic performance of a swept-back wing at moderate Reynolds numbers is investigated through numerical simulation and parallel processing. The aim is the identification of streamlines around the wing and subsequently the formation of the wing tip vortex. Due to the purely three-dimensional character of the flow, the … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2025 · 9,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSEVQER: Automatic Semantic Visual Query Builder to Support Intelligent Image Search in Traffic ImagesHui-Hui Wang, Phei-Chin Lim, Yin-Chai Wang et al.Image search is a challenging process in the field of Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Image search-by-example, search-by-keyword and search-by-sketch methods seldom provide user interface that allows user to accurately formulate their search intent easily. To overcome such issue, a novel image search interface-Semantic Visual Query Builder (SeVQer) is proposed as a non-verbal interface which allows user to drag and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 6 Aug 2018 · 7,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation of Limonene-based Environmental-Friendly Emulsion Drilling MudOlaitan Oluwaseum Micheal, Orodu Oyinkepreye David, Ehinmowo Adegboyega BoluThe use of emulsion drilling mud in the oil and gas industry has gained wide acceptance. However, the disposal of drill cuttings and the waste of such emulsion drilling mud usually poses environmental concern. Hence, there is the need to seek oil from biodegradable sources as an alternative to the current conventional diesel oil which constitute environmental threat. In this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2017 · 7,923 accessesView PDFCite
