Structural performance of rounded dovetail connections
The structural performance of Rounded Dovetail Connections (RDC) has been studied experimentally and numerically to provide information needed for connection structural design. RDC are mainly used to transfer vertical shear forces, but test results show that they can carry considerable load in …

Use of Rounded Base Turns in General Aviation Traffic Patterns: A Quantitative Analysis
… directional changes are accomplished. A “rounded-base” could instead be conducted, consisting of a constant 180- degree turn, potentially resulting in lower angles-of-attack (AOA), thereby keeping the aircraft further from the critical AOA at which I-LOC may occur. Using flight data …

The prediction of the outermost trajectory of media in a grinding mill for lifter bars with rounded or worn profiles
… the inside of a ball mill for lifter bars with rounded or worn profiles. The model predicts the response of a single ball with particular reference to the balls trajectory after departure from the lifter bar and incorporates the effect of friction, mill rotational speed, lifter height as well as …

Software-based approximate computing for mathematical functions
… error or when it is necessary to be correctly-rounded. Deterministic correctly-rounded elementary mathematical functions are important in many applications. Others are tolerant to some level of error and would benefit from less accurate, better-performing approximations. We found that, despite …

Heat capacity of gadolinium near the Curie point
… The heat capacity peak for our best sample is rounded in a range of lO at the Curie point (Tc ). Outside this region, good power law fits are obtained fora range of values of the critical exponents alpha (above Tc) and alpha' (below Tc )' the choice of which depends on the choice of Tc The …

Investigation of suction recirculation in rocket pump inducers
… edge tip region. This part of the blade is rounded off in a meridional view, resulting in an increased sweep angle over the outer 30 percent of the blade height. Inlet recirculation and cavitation performance are the main concern of this thesis. The literature review focuses on these two …

Sound Radiated from Turbulent Flow over Two and Three-Dimensional Surface Discontinuities
… two-dimensional forward facing steps, gaps with rounded corners and swept forward facing steps with rounded corners were made. The sound from a forward facing step is shown to exhibit effects of non-compactness. Rounding the step corner results in consistent drop in sound levels but the …
