Shell dredging as a factor in estuarine sedimentation

Mash, F.D. (author)

During the past few decades, industrial demands for buried shell have been rapidly increasing. Highway construction, the petrochemical industries, and cement manufacturers are among the major users of shell. Semi-fossil oyster shell is found in tidal embayments in deposits of varying thickness and is dredged from depths varying from two or three...

Driving in a womb

Drive thousands of kilometres on just a litre of fuel? During the annual Shell eco-marathon at the end of May, schoolchildren and students – including a team from TU Delft – demonstrated that it can indeed be done.

Two-dimensional modelling of capillary liquid flow in a thin annulus

Vogels, M.E.S. (author)

One of the experiments performed on board Spacelab, involves a partially filled annular cylinder which is subjected to prescribed motions (Ref. 1). The interest in this configuration arises from its practical use; for instance, the coolant in IRAS was stored in an annulus-like tank. In this report, a mathematical model for the transient liquid...

The nonlinear analysis part of B2000: a first evaluation

de Boer, A. (author), Riks, E. (author)

In this report a description is given of the nonlinear package of B2000. The set-up of the continuation procedure which controls the nonlinear calculations is explained. At some points the existing continuation procedure was modified to enhance its performance. The nonlinear package contains a nonlinear rod element and a nonlinear thick shell...

On the simulation of fluid spacecraft interactive dynamics

Guelman, M. (author)

The present report contains a study on the simulation of interactive fluid spacecraft dynamics. The equations of motion of the two dimensional full tank case as well as the corresponding finite different discretized equations are presented. The numerical solution of this system is studied. Results are presented for a number of cases. Based on...

On transforming accelerometer data to angular rate

Vreeburg, J.P.B. (author)

The representation of the acceleration field on a rigid body contains as parameters its angular rate and acceleration vectors plus the acceleration vector at a single point of the body. A linear accelerometer measures a local component of the field. From the response of different accelerometers, three quadratic forms in the angular rate of the...

Damage assessment and preservation of an Egyptian silver vase (300 - 200 B.C.)

Wanhill, R.J.H. (author), Leenheer, R. (author), Steijaert, J.P.H.M. (author), Koens, J.F.W. (author)

An Egyptian metal vase from the Ptolemaic period was investigated metallurgically and fractographically. The metal is nearly pure silver, and chemical analysis indicates it was obtained from the cupellation of lead. Despite its high purity (in archaeological terms) the metal is severely cracked and embrittled, with fractures mainly along grain...
