The paper presents the experimental study on the inter-modulation method for the diagnostics of concrete elements. The tests were conducted on a concrete plate subjected to ultrasonic waves and low frequency vibrations. The nonlinear acoustic effects, recorded in the experiments, made it possible to detect the presence of damaged zones. Further studies are necessary to establish the relation between the sidebanes of frequency spectra and the size of the damaged zone.

An experimental study of turbulent flow in a plane curved channel of depth-to-width ratio 8:1 and mean radius-to-width ratio 1.83:1 by means of measured distributions of mean peripheral velocity and pressure and flow visualization methods using dye. It appears that due to the large depth-to-width ratio, the secondary flow, though appreciable, is apparent mainly in the end plate regions. Even so it has a pronounced effect on the flow near the inner (convex) wall. It appears that the sharp curvature is effective in quenching the turbulence of the entering rectilinear shear flow at the inner wall of the curved channel by causing a mean flow acceleration in this region. The study indicates that localized backflows can occur at the inner wall at the meeting of secondary and main flows under near-laminar conditions.

The study of vortex shedding from a sphere assumes an important role because of its relevance to numerous aerodynamic and hydrodynamic applications. Parameters such as coefficient of drag and static pressure distribution are largely influenced by vortex shedding, and it is found by past studies that the freestream turbulence can interact and alter the vortex formation and shedding drastically. Most of these studies, however, were conducted in the low Reynolds number regime and the vortex shedding results had been described only qualitatively. To better understand the aerodynamics of a sphere in turbulent flow, an experimental study was initiated in a low speed wind tunnel to quantify the vortex shedding characteristics. The Reynolds number of the flow, based on the diameter of the sphere (d), was set at 3.3 × 104, 5 × 104 and 6.6 × 104 by varying the mean flow velocity. The sphere was placed at 20D (= 7.5d) downstream from a perforated plate, where D = 37.5 mm is the size of the holes in the perforated plate, uniquely designed for generating near-isotropic turbulence. Hot-wire measurements were taken at 10D (= 3.75d), 20D (= 7.5d) and 30D (= 11.25d) downstream of the sphere in absence and presence of the perforated plate. The vortex shedding frequency was deduced from the instantaneous flow velocity data.

The paper investigates experimentally the effect of low-frequency vibration on nonlinear vibro-acoustic wave modulations applied to the detection of Barely Visible Impact Damage (BVID) in a composite plate. Finite Element (FE) modeling was used in a pretest stage to identify different motion scenarios of delaminated surfaces and relate them to natural frequencies of the damaged plate. In particular the opening-closing and frictional sliding actions of the defected interfaces have been considered. Subsequently, the identified frequencies have been used for low frequency excitation in nonlinear acoustic experiments on a composite plate with impact damage.
