Essays on Investment Stagnation and Financialization
… view into the work of the pioneer of investment stagnation, Alvin Harvey Hansen. The essay shows that the influence of continental business-cycle theory, and notably the work of Arthur Spiethoff and Gustav Cassel, were critical to Hansen's conceptualization of stagnation as a cyclical process …

Numerical study of linearized unsteady stagnation flow
<p>The stability of stagnation point flow has long been recognized as an important problem in aerodynamic analysis. Boundary layer disturbances located near the stagnation line can have a significant effect on the overall properties of an airfoil. One example of current interest is the analysis of …

Simulations of Nanoparticle Synthesis in Laminar Stagnation Flames
… of laminar premixed ethylene jet-wall stagnation flames when the equivalence ratio, exit gas velocity and burner-plate separation distance are varied. The simulation results were compared to new experimental 2D measurements of CH* chemiluminescence and temperature. The 2D simulations …

Growth and Stagnation in Developing Economies: a Structural Approach
During the 2000s, after almost two decades of poor growth performance, Latin American countries have experienced a period of growth acceleration. Even though it has been led mainly by a faster growth of external demand for natural resources, this demand has increased national income, and, by …

Exact Solutions for Orthogonal and Non-Orthogonal Magnetohydrodynamic Stagnation-Point Flow
<p>The viscous plane flow of an electrically conducting fluid towards an infinite wall is solved in the presence of a magnetic field which is aligned with the flow far from the wall. The problem has two dimensionless parameters-- ε, the magnetic Prandtl number, and β, the square of the ratio of …

Investigation of stagnation-flow diamond-forming flames using advanced laser diagnostics
… deposition substrate in atmospheric-pressure, stagnation-flow diamond-forming flames. In these flames, a rich acetylene/oxygen/hydrogen mixture accelerates through a nozzle and impinges on a water-cooled molybdenum substrate, stabilizing a flat-flame approximately 1 mm below the substrate. A …

Multi-Fidelity Study of Complex Multi-Scale Flows Concerning Stagnation Probes
… quantify the loss sources related to the use of stagnation probes in aero-engines through the use of RANS and high fidelity wall-resolved Large Eddy Simulations (LES), and help develop methods and techniques to aid in improving their design to reduce the impact of these losses. The measurement of …

Morphology and polymorphism of TiO2 nanoparticles prepared in premixed stagnation flames
… of TiO$_2$ nanoparticles prepared in premixed stagnation flames in order to understand the factors controlling the formation of the particles. Computational models are developed and experimental measurements are performed to characterise the effect of varying process conditions on the particle …

Stagnation temperature test methods for determining solar collector thermal performance degradation
… The proposed method is based on measuring stagnation (no-flow) temperatures of the absorber plate. A comparison of the advantages and limitations of the proposed method is made with the conventionally used existing method which is based on measuring the energy output from the collector. …

Flame stabilization and mixing characteristics in a stagnation point reverse flow combustor
A novel combustor design, referred to as the Stagnation Point Reverse-Flow (SPRF) combustor, was recently developed that is able to operate stably at very lean fuel-air mixtures and with low NOx emissions even when the fuel and air are not premixed before entering the combustor. The primary …
