Systematic development of coarse-grained polymer models
… of the wide range of time and length scales. Mechanical models of polymers have been used to understand average heological properties as well as the deviation a single polymer molecule has from the average response. This leads to more physically significant constitutive relations, which can be …

Experimental evaluation and modeling of a turbine blade with potassium evaporative cooling
… the Return Flow Cascade is described including fluid mechanic and heat transfer phenomena that occur at high heat flux and gravitational acceleration levels characteristic of modern gas turbine engines. The performance limits of the Return Flow Cascade are identified by the development of a …

Radial parallel plate flow with mechanical agitation
… the center. Little research has been done on the fluid mechanic properties of this physical situation, particularly with an impeller agitating the air stream. For the design of the integrated heat sink, it is desirable to understand the thermal properties of the channel in terms of various …

Meandering river dynamics
… are dynamic landforms that arise as a result of fluid mechanic and sedimentary processes. Their evolution has been described by the meander morphodynamic equations, which dictate that channel curvature and bed topology give rise to local perturbations in streamwise fluid velocity, prompting the …

Swirl-stabilized lean-premixed flame combustion dynamics: An experimental investigation of flame stabilization, flame dynamics and combustion instability control strategies
… which involves unsteady chemical kinetic, fluid mechanic and acoustic processes that can lead to unstable behavior and could be detrimental in ways ranging from faster part fatigue to catastrophic system failure. Understanding and controlling the onset and propagation of combustion …

LONG TIME BEHAVIOR OF LINEAR AND NONLINEAR WAVES:LARGE LARGE AMPLITUDE TRAVELING QUASI-PERIODIC SOLUTIONS IN FLUID MECHANICS AND DYNAMICS OF LINEAR WAVE EQUATIONS
… of quasi-periodic large amplitude solutions for fluid-dynamic models in more than one space-dimension and a stability result for the linear Klein-Gordon Equation with a small quasi-periodic perturbation. In the first part of the thesis, where we consider two different models on $\mathbb{T}^2$: …
