The present aim is to reveal the flow past a pipe which is immersed parallel to the mainstream at high Reynolds numbers.In a wind tunnel, we carry out (1) base-pressure measurements, (2) velocity-fluctuation measurements using a hot-wire anemometer and (3) flow visualisations by a smoke-wire method with PIV analyses, where we take consecutive picut
Low temperature is one of the abiotic stresses seriously affecting the growth of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.Understanding the genetic control of freezing tolerance would aid in the development of cultivars of perennial ryegrass with improved adaptation to frost.A total number of 80 individuals (24 of High frost [HF]; 29 of Low frost [LF]
In this paper, a hybrid system integrating a fixed breakwater and an oscillating buoy type wave energy converter (WEC) is introduced.The energy converter is designed to extract the wave power by making use of the wave-induced heave motions of the three floating pontoons in front of the fixed Tall Pier breakwater.A preliminary experimental study is
In many surgery assistance systems, cumbersome equipment or complicated algorithms are often introduced to build the whole system.To build Fridge Hose Seal a system without cumbersome equipment or complicated algorithms, and to provide physicians the ability to observe the location of the lesion in the course of surgery, an augmented reality approa
