t o the height of the shoulder joints. I t was found that the strength of the response was influenced by the elbow-angle and the degree of body stabilixation provided by the backrest. The backrest height had little effect at the lesser elbow-angles, but as the arm was further straightened to 135 &apos

, as well as how the inclusion of technology in pedagogy further complicates teaching. The TPACK framework for teacher knowledge is described in detail, as a complex interaction among three bodies of knowledge: Content, pedagogy, and technology. The interaction of these bodies of knowledge, both

Three different PDF algorithms have been applied to investigate a constant-density bluff-body stabilized flow using the same turbulence models and the same boundary conditions. The objectives of this paper are to compare the three algorithms in terms of numerical accuracy and efficiency

Passive Dynamic Walking is one of the key issues toward humanoid walking with less energy consumption. There is few past studies on PDW of a robot having the similar body as a human, that is, having both legs, arms and a torso. This is because the 3-D motions of the robot with the upper body

The peculiarities of coherent vortical structures that are formed in a shear flow around a backward facing step are considered. The model of this flow is investigated both experimentally and theoretically for laminar and turbulent regimes of flow. The essence of a method of receptivity-interaction of coherent vortical structures is described. This method is considered as a basis for different variants of practical tasks realization.

This paper describes an investigation of the response of bluff body stabilized flames to harmonic oscillations. This problem involves two key elements – the excitation of hydrodynamic flow instabilities by acoustic waves, and the response of the flame to these harmonic flow instabilities

The velocity-turbulent frequency-compositions PDF method combined with the consistent hybrid finite volume (FV)/particle solution algorithm is applied to a bluff-body stabilized turbulent flame. The statistical stationarity is shown and the performance of the PDF method is assessed by comparing

LES (QL-LES) model. The models are described, and theoretical links between these are discussed in terms of the turbulent flame speed and flame thickness. In addition, the different models are used to study a bluff-body stabilized flame and the resulting predic-tions are compared with experimental
