1. Numerical and experimental evaluation of the thermally stratified atmospheric boundary layer in wind tunnels
Abstract The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flow occurs due to the interaction between the Earth’s surface and atmosphere, and it usually happens under thermal stratification. Therefore, in order to emulate this phenomenon, atmospheric wind tunnels need appropriate devices, such as spires and cubical roughness elements, at the entrance of the wind tunnel

2. Reduction of epistemic uncertainty of a crash box model - experimental and numerical investigations
Abstract The high prediction accuracy of FEM calculations is an important prerequisite for their growing use in the field of crash load cases for vehicle body design. Although the simulation accuracy of crash calculations for steel structures already is at a high standard, continuous improvements and a further development of the simulation models are crucial

3. Experimental and Numerical Study of the Unsteady Wake of a Supercritical Airfoil in a Compressible Flow
ABSTRACT Experimental investigations were carried out to study the wake profile of a supercritical airfoil at Mach numbers of 0.4 and 0.6 in a pitching motion. Both static and dynamic tests were conducted in a tri-sonic wind tunnel. Flow field inside the wake was measured by hot wire anemometry at downstream distances of 0.25 and 0.5 times the chord length f

4. A numerical study on the aerodynamic performance of building cross-sections using corner modifications
Abstract A numerical investigation is performed in this work in order to evaluate the aerodynamic performance of building cross-section configurations by using corner modifications. The CAARC tall building model is utilized here as reference geometry, which is reshaped considering chamfered and recessed corners. The numerical scheme adopted in this work is p

6. Modeling the Local Viscoelastic Behavior of Living Cells Under Nanoindentation Tests
Abstract Aiming at multiscale numerical investigations of fibrous connective tissues, the present work proposes a finite strain viscoelastic model suitable to represent the local mechanical response of living cells in conjunction with finite element simulations of nanoindentation tests. The material model is formulated in a thermodynamically consistent frame

7. Numerical Study of Wall Ventilation in a Transonic Wind Tunnel
ABSTRACT: Transonic wind tunnels (TWT) are sophisticated tools for the investigations of flows with Mach numbers of order one. The most characteristic feature of a facility such as this is, for sure, the openings in the walls of the test section. The openings in the walls permit the proper relief effect, and this, on the other hand, makes possible the experi

8. A swirler stabilized combustion chamber for a micro-gas turbine fuelled with natural gas
Micro-gas turbines are a good alternative for on-site power generation, since their operation is very reliable. The possibility of operating with various fuels increases versatility and, as a result, the usage of these devices. Focusing on a performance improvement of a tri-fuel low-cost micro-gas turbine, this work presents investigations of the inner flow

9. Investigação experimental e analítica do escoamento ao redor de cilindro circular com supressores de VIV. / Experimental and analytical investigation of the flow around circular cylinder with VIV suppressors.
The fluid flow around bluff bodies is one of the main problems in fluid mechanics. The investigations of this phenomenon are based on analytical, numerical and experimental techniques. Each technique presents advantages and disadvantages, being impossible the comprehensive characterization of the flow though only one technique for the majority of body geomet

10. ZIMORA - UM MODELO NUMÉRICO 3D DE DISPERSÃO ATMOSFÉRICA / ZIMORA - A 3D NUMERICAL MODEL FOR ATMOSPHERIC DISPERSION
In this thesis, we presents a development and validation of a 3D numerical model for the advection-diffusion equation. Models of this kind has been developed for scientific investigations and to support atmospheric emissions control and environmental policy decisions. To develop this model, we used the computational implementation of an explicit numerical sc

11. Experimental analyisis of a hypersonic waverider.
This work presents the results of shock tunnel tests of a Mach 10 waverider with sharp leading edges. The waverider surface was generated from a conical flowfield with the volume and the viscous lift-to-drag ratio as optimization parameters. A compression and expansion ramps were added to the pure waverider surface in order to simulate the flow over a scramj

12. Timber-concrete composite structures: evaluation of GFRP reinforced glulam beams / Estruturas mistas de madeira-concreto: avaliação das vigas de madeira laminada colada reforçadas com fibras de vidro
No cenário da produção de edificações sustentáveis, a madeira laminada colada (MLC) ocupa lugar de destaque, sobretudo pela possibilidade de emprego de madeiras provenientes de florestas plantadas. Com o propósito de amenizar os problemas de durabilidade, quando exposta às intempéries, uma solução pressupõe a associação das vigas de MLC com um
