Behavior of Surface Polaritons on Cylindrical Semiconducting Materials at Nanoscale with Radius Dependence Frequency
Abstract: Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a physical property of the surface to investigate the important properties of optical behaviors for nanomaterial and biomaterial. It involves the excitation of electrons within a thin metal sheet by incident light at a specific angle, prompting them to propagate parallel to the surface. This sensitivity to external factors, such as changes in the refractive index of the surrounding medium due to molecular adsorption, underscores …

Analyzing Cavitation in Marine Propeller: A Computational Approach with Consideration for Polymer Applications
Abstract: A major source of noise and blade damage in marine propellers is because of the phenomenon of hydrodynamic cavitation. The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis approach is employed for the prediction of the cavitating propeller’s performance characteristics under various conditions of operation with the advance coefficient (J) ranging from 0.55 to 0.91 and cavitation number (σ) in the range of 0.80 to 4.50. The numerical simulation is performed on INSEAN …

A Method of Mesh Deformation for Flow Analysis Around Oscillating Bodies
Abstract: In general, high-speed rotating machines are subjected to complex phenomena due to various reasons, such as increased noise and strong vibration due to dynamic unbalance, which affect the dynamic motion of rotating machines and are necessarily a problem to overcome. Therefore, it is necessary to have a mathematical model to simulate it, and a strong tool to solve the constructed model. Using fluid-structure coupling techniques, which are currently a powerful …

Study on the Method of Constructing a System of Linear Equations for Calculating Aerodynamic Derivatives
Abstract: The aerodynamic derivatives can be calculated from the unsteady hydrodynamic forces experienced by the harmonic-oscillating vehicle. Until now, unsteady flow field analysis in aerodynamic derivative calculations has been applied mainly to thin bodies based on potential theory MSC. Nastran is a typical application based on potential theory MSC. Natran can calculate the aerodynamic derivatives of the vehicle relatively well in the subsonic region, but in the supersonic region, the fuselage …

Analysis of the Impact of Seabed Earthquakes on Coastal Structures and Foundation Design
Abstract: Earthquakes in the seabed occur with varying magnitudes. Seabed earthquakes cause a rapid rise in water levels, which can lead to flooding and structural damage. Therefore, when designing buildings near the seashore, it is essential to account for the additional load on columns due to water thrust. Earthquakes occurring at the seabed generate intense ground acceleration of varying magnitudes, significantly affecting water levels and inducing destructive flooding along coastal regions. …
