Intermittent Flow Regimes in a Transonic Fan Airfoil Cascade by J. Lepicovsky, E. R. McFarland, R. V. Chima, V. R. Capece, J. Hayden

“…Experimental results revealed that, at a large incidence angle, a range of transonic inlet Mach numbers exist where the leading-edge shock-wave pattern was unstable. Flush-mounted, high-frequency response pressure transducers indicated large local jumps in the pressure in the leading edge area, which generates large intermittent loading on the blade leading edge. …”

Ground Displacements due to the Deformations of Shallow Tunnels with Arbitrary Cross Sections in Soft Ground by Qiongfang Zhang, Kang Cheng, Cungang Lin, Yadong Lou, Panpan Guo, Xiaolu Gan

“…First, a solution for the stresses and displacements around a deep tunnel in a full plane is formulated by imposing a specified convergence pattern over the cavity boundary. Subsequently, this solution is validated using finite element simulations in a case study of an elliptical tunnel with four different convergence patterns. …”
