Meier and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanism of sound generation and the kind of viscid interaction of vortices with airfoils in an airflow is investigated. Experiments have been performed in regular, quasi-stationary flow with vortices of a Karman vortex street. Depending on the dimensions of vortices and airfoils, their distance, and the flow Machnumbers, different kinds of upstream propagating sound waves occur.

Download or read book Use of Services for Family Planning and Infertility United States 1982 written by Gerry E. Hendershot and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 982 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1982 statistics on the use of family planning and infertility services presented in this report are preliminary results from Cycle III of the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. Data were collected through personal interviews with a multistage area probability sample of 7969 women aged 15-44. A detailed series of questions was asked to obtain relatively complete estimates of the extent and type of family planning services received. Statistics on family planning services are limited to women who were able to conceive 3 years before the interview date. Overall, 79% of currently mrried nonsterile women reported using some type of family planning service during the previous 3 years. There were no statistically significant differences between white (79%), black (75%) or Hispanic (77%) wives, or between the 2 income groups. The 1982 survey questions were more comprehensive than those of earlier cycles of the survey. The annual rate of visits for family planning services in 1982 was 1077 visits /1000 women. Teenagers had the highest annual visit rate (1581/1000) of any age group for all sources of family planning services combined. Visit rates declined sharply with age from 1447 at ages 15-24 to 479 at ages 35-44. Similar declines with age also were found in the visit rates for white and black women separately. Nevertheless, the annual visit rate for black women (1334/1000) was significantly higher than that for white women (1033). The highest overall visit rate was for black women 15-19 years of age (1867/1000). Nearly 2/3 of all family planning visits were to private medical sources. Teenagers of all races had higher family planning service visit rates to clinics than to private medical sources, as did black women age 15-24. White women age 20 and older had higher visit rates to private medical services than to clinics. Never married women had higher visit rates to clinics than currently or formerly married women. Data were also collected in 1982 on use of medical services for infertility by women who had difficulty in conceiving or carrying a pregnancy to term. About 1 million ever married women had 1 or more infertility visits in the 12 months before the interview. During the 3 years before interview, about 1.9 million women had infertility visits. For all ever married women, as well as for white and black women separately, infertility services were more likely to be secured from private medical sources than from clinics. The survey design, reliability of the estimates and the terms used are explained in the technical notes.

Book excerpt: The interaction of convected vortices with different airfoils was investigated in a transonic duct and a shock tube flow. Different kinks of separation and secondary vortex generation have a governing influence on airfoil-vortex interaction. Steep sound waves propagating upstream are generated at the leading edge. A system for digital processing of flow interferograms has been developed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding vortex-wall interactions has applications in the context of airplane trailing vortices, as wake vortices are an unavoidable by-product of aerodynamic lift. These vortices pose an increased hazard for aircraft at airport takeoffs and landings, as following aircraft flying through a vortex wake can experience dangerous rolling moments. In this work, we use a vortex generator tank and a delta wing in an XY-Towing Tank to study the dynamics of counter-rotating vortex pairs both in and out of ground effect, via PIV and flow visualization. When a vortex pair approaches a ground plane, the boundary layer that forms on the surface between the vortices and the wall separates, generating secondary vorticity and causing the primary vortex pair to ``rebound'' from the wall. Using a vortex generator tank to produce a temporally evolving vortex pair, it is shown that the introduction of perturbations at the ground plane results in earlier localized secondary vorticity generation. This leads to the formation of coherent secondary vortex structures, and an accelerated decay of the primary vortex pair. This passive, ground-based method could be a means to diminish the wake vortex hazard behind aircraft close to the ground. We study also the spatially evolving trailing vortices in the far-wake of a 75 degree leading-edge sweep-angle delta wing, using a novel technique to measure the axial flow in the vortex core. This technique is unaffected by vortex wandering, allowing us to capture axial flow data as close as 0.03 chord-lengths apart. Using this technique, the streamwise velocity profile is captured over 20 chord-lengths downstream of the delta wing, even when the vortex pair is in ground effect. In this thesis, we also study new modes of NACA 0012 airfoil motions using a ``sports-mimetic'' approach, inspired by the bodyweight motions of Olympic sailors as they maneuver their sailboats when racing. Olympic sailors use various unsteady aerodynamic techniques when racing to increase propulsion for their boat. One such technique is for sailors to use bodyweight movements to roll the boat about its longitudinal axis. This motion is used especially when turning in light winds by either ``roll tacking'' (upwind sailing) or ``roll gybing'' (downwind sailing); it is also used in ``sail flicking'' whereby the sailor rolls the boat, flicking the sail periodically. These motions are characterized in on-the-water experiments using a Laser sailboat and a 420 sailboat, equipped with a GPS, IMU, wind sensor and GoPro camera array. We study the underlying vortex dynamics of these maneuvers using these characteristic motions, along with full-scale flow visualization and laboratory experiments. Flow visualization experiments are conducted on Cayuga Lake with an Olympic Laser Sailboat, using an Enola Gaye WP40 smoke grenade to visualize large-scale flow features around the sail.
