This open access book commemorates the 30th anniversary of the discovery of Solitons/like Coherent Structures (SCS) under experimental conditions, presenting a curated collection of contributions on SCS, the most important physical structures in the origin and development of turbulent flows.

Different from previous books that focus on theory and numerical simulation, this book offers a comprehensive and systematic theoretical framework to address the global challenge of understanding the origins of turbulence from an experimental physics perspective. It begins with the common...

This book features 31 studies that collectively explore a wide range of innovative engineering solutions and advanced technologies across various fields. Most of the studies focus on designing, analyzing, and optimizing systems that improve efficiency and performance. The papers highlight cutting-edge methodologies and applications, from hydro turbine installations in underground pipelines to using nanofluids for CPU cooling. Key projects include the development of autonomous vehicles for flood detection, innovative composites for automotive applications, and advanced monitoring systems...

This revised second edition of the book presents an improvement of the original version in terms of recent research, corrections, and outline. The state of the art in fluvial hydrodynamics can be examined only through a careful exploration of the theoretical development and applied engineering technology. This second, updated edition focuses, since most up-to-date research findings in the field are presented, on the research aspects that involve a comprehensive knowledge of sediment dynamics in turbulent flows. It begins with the fundamentals of hydrodynamics and particle motion followed...

This open access book presents the steps necessary for the application of rotorcraft flight modelling and simulation and analysis in support of certification for compliance with EASA CS-27 and CS-29, SUBPART B—FLIGHT and other flight-related rules (e.g. CS-27/9, Appendix B, Airworthiness Criteria for Helicopter Instrument Flight). The material is presented in the form of a structured ‘Rotorcraft Certification by Simulation’ process, starting from the relevant paragraphs in the Certification Specifications, through a comprehensive description of the assembly of flight simulation...
