The study of axisymmetric flow dynamics in both supersonic and subsonic regimes is pivotal in advancing our understanding of fluid behaviour around streamlined bodies and complex geometries. This ...

Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, Vol. 13, No. 2 (JULY, 1955), pp. 139-146 (8 pages) A method is given of designing two-dimensional symmetrical aerofoils in subsonic compressible flow when the ...

Most people have experienced the sonic boom of a skillfully wielded whip, or the closely related crack of a nearby bolt of lightning. Such sounds have a character that attracts a good deal of ...

Most bullets make small sonic booms when flying through the air, which to our ears sound like a loud, distinct “crack!” For the Pentagon’s special forces, that makes it hard to be sneaky about what ...

Confusion and misinformation seem to be the order of the day when it comes to rating pneumatic valves. For instance, in a recent MACHINE DESIGN article ("Clearing the Air on Pneumatic Valve Ratings," ...
