Development of an advanced Hybrid (U)RANS/LES turbulence models using Scale Adaptive Simulation (SAS) method
(2022)Turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon occurring in most practical fluid flows. The accurate prediction of turbulent flows is evident in optimizing and developing highly efficient modern fluid systems. Several turbulence ... -
Hydrologic Analysis of Rain Garden Performance
(2016)Urban flooding became a significant issue for many cities worldwide due to rapid urbanization and increased impervious areas over the past two decades ([1]). Rain gardens are considered to be an economically-friendly ... -
Identification and Development of a Reliable Framework to Predict Passive Scalar Transport for Turbulent Bounded Shear Flows
(2020)Heat transfer modeling plays an integral role in optimization and development of highly efficient modern thermal-fluid systems. However, currently available heat flux models suffer from fundamental shortcomings. For example, ... -
Investigation of strength of a hybrid adhesive anchor system used in precast concrete welded repair applications subjected to tensile and eccentric shear loading
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-08-28)A common precast industry repair for missing or misplaced connection plates is the use of an adhesive anchor system to fasten repair plates to precast members. Typically, the repair plate will experience elevated ... -
Modeling Pressurized Stairwells with Open Doors
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)Stairwells are essential to occupant exiting from tall (high-rise) buildings. In order to maintain tenable environments in the stairwells, modeling building and fire codes allow the use of a stair pressurization system ... -
Multi-hazard resilience assessment of river-crossing bridges
(2021)Bridge structures are required to possess high reliability and robustness against the concurrent effect of extreme loads and environmental attacks. To achieve such interrelated goals, it is necessary to assess the system ... -
Musculoskeletal Modeling of The Human Elbow Joint
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)Comprehensive knowledge of the in vivo loading of elbow structures is essential in understanding the biomechanical causes associated with elbow diseases and injuries, and to find appropriate treatment. Currently, in ... -
Predictive Thermal Modeling and 3E Analysis of Solar Water Heating Systems: Employing A Hybrid Lattice Boltzmann Based Method and Experimental Investigation
(2023)Today, solar energy is one of the most prevalent forms of renewable energy being used and will come to play one of the most significant roles in meeting future energy demands, which is expected to increase to 34000 PJ by ... -
Use of Biomechanical Motion Analysis and Pelvic Surgery Simulator for the Prevention of Surgical Errors in Mid-urethral Sling Anti-Incontinence Surgery
(2023)More than 200 million surgeries are performed annually worldwide in which preventable complications occur in up to 22 percent of these surgeries, with permanent disability rates between 0.4 - 0.8 percent. Resident surgeons ...
