Continuum Analytical Shape Sensitivity Analysis of 1-D Elastic Bar
… bar are differentiated with respect to the shape design parameter to derive the continuum sensitivity equations. The continuum sensitivity equations are linear ordinary differential equations in terms of local or material shape design derivatives, otherwise known as shape sensitivities. One of the …

Improving Design Guidance for In-Stream Structures Used in Stream Restoration
… undertook a thorough review of the available design guidance for the single-arm vane, j-hook vane, cross vane, and w-weir, which revealed that the existing guidance is composed of non-standardized recommendations largely based on practitioner experience and rules of thumb. Existing guidance …

Analysis of riprap design methods using predictive equations for maximum and average velocities at the tips of transverse in-stream structures
… the bank, which enhances bank stability. The design, effectiveness, and performance of transverse in-stream structures have not been well documented, but recent efforts have begun to study the flow fields and profiles around and over transverse in-stream structures. It is essential for channel …

Investigation of the Under-Body Flow Field of a Prototype Long-Range Electric Vehicle
<p>This thesis presents changes to the design of the Prototype Vehicles Laboratory (PROVE Lab) Endurance Car, an electric car intended to break the Guinness World Record for the single-charge range of an electric vehicle. The design range is 1609.34 km, however at the design velocity of 104.6 kph, …

Study of mouthguard design for endurance and air-flow enhancement
… is safe and comfort, a study on the mouthguard design is carried out to investigate the performance of the mouthguards, in term of stress distribution and air flow path by improving the pressure difference between the ambient (outside) and the oral cavity pressure (inside). A preliminary design …
