Veil Piercing - A Necessary evil? A critical study on the doctrines of limited liability and piercing the corporate veil
… one of the important exceptions to this rule: piercing the corporate veil. This paper reveals, after a detailed analysis, that the doctrine of piercing the corporate veil is inherently flawed. While accepting the necessity for such a doctrine in the context of a global market, this paper shows …

Computational modeling of crack initiation in cross-role piercing
… center of the cylindrical billet ahead of the piercing plug. In this work the crack initiation that leads to the creation of tile small hole has been modeled. The Gurson-Tvergaard-Needlemnan model of porous plasticity is used to simulate the Mannesmann effect. The appearance of a crack at the …

An investigation into the design of surface piercing super cavitating hydrofoils
… involved in the design of high-speed surface-piercing hydrofoils is complex involving three different fluid phases (air, water and vapor) and complex fluid dynamic mechanisms like unsteady cavitation and ventilation and their interaction. For speeds considerably higher than the incipient …

An Analysis on Hydrodynamic Loads for Surface-Piercing Propellers Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
A surface piercing propeller (SPP) is a propeller that is partially submerged in water and is considered a possible solution to high-speed vessels (greater than 50 knots) where cavitation plays a vital role due to its ever-increasing detrimental effects. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has …

Piercing the doctrine of strict compliance in documentary credits: how strict is strict compliance?
Letters of credit have since time immemorial been the bedrock of international trade financing. Arguably, letters of credit have survived the test of time by the observance of the doctrine of strict compliance; that the documents presented by the vendor or provider of services must strictly comply …

Piercing together a girlhood : (re)visiting memories of site using nostalgia as a catalyst for coping with atopia
My research has been preoccupied with the playing of memory with reference to narratives of loss. This loss has been represented by a loss of language, place and family, resulting in the playing of unnerving memory fragments. The primary driving force of this loss has been the notion of a disrupted …

Design and numerical analysis of an unconventional surface-piercing propeller for improved performance at low and high speeds
… reducing drag on the blades. Surface-piercing propellers, operating under a similar concept as supercavitation, often achieve even greater efficiency by drawing in an air cavity from the free surface. Existing small craft have demonstrated the ability of such propellers to yield …
