Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Analysis of the Integration of Wind Turbines into the Design of the Built EnvironmentHassam Nasarullah Chaudhry, John Kaiser Calautit, Ben Richard HughesThe effect of wind distribution on the architectural domain of the Bahrain Trade Centre was numerically analysed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Using the numerical data, the power generation potential of the building integrated wind turbines was determined in response to the prevailing wind direction. Simulating a reference wind speed of 6 m/s, the findings from the study quantified an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAbrasive Jet Polishing and its Applications in Surface FinishingZhaoze Li, Jianmin Wang, Xiaoqiang Peng et al.Problem statement: Single Point Diamond Turning (SPDT) is highly deterministic and versatile in producing various forms of precise optics. A typical example is the production of large off-axis aspheric mirrors and various infrared mirrors and mandrels. However, the fine periodical turning marks left in the surface critically limit its performance and they are difficult to be avoided for traditional polishing … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 26 Jul 2011 · 13,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Stent Geometry on Phase Shift between Pressure and Flow Waveforms in Stented Human Coronary ArteryVahab Dehlaghi, Siamak Najarian, Mohammad Tafazzoli ShadpourShear stress is known to play a central role in restenosis formation and is sensitive to stent geometry. Alterations of the phase shift between pressure and flow waveform created by a different stents were studied to compare the hemodynamic effects of stent design properties on restenosis in stented human coronary artery. Blood pressure waveforms were computed in three different sites, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Analysis of Pulsatile Blood Flow in a Stented Human Coronary Artery with a Flow DividerVahab Dehlaghi, Mohammad Tafazoli Shadpoor, Siamak NajarianShear stress is known to play a central role in restenosis formation and is sensitive to stent geometry. Local flow alterations created by a different stents without and with flow divider were studied to compare the hemodynamic effects of Stent design properties on restenosis in stented human coronary artery. Blood pressure and shear stress values were computed in three different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWall Shear Stress Distribution in Patient Specific Coronary Artery BifurcationVahab Dehlaghi, Frank GijsenProblem statement: Atherogenesis is affected by hemodynamic parameters, such as wall shear stress and wall shear stress spatial gradient.
