Passengers' perception of the safety demonstration on board an aircraftRuenruoy, Ratchada 22 May 2015 (has links)
<p> The cabin safety demonstration on board an aircraft is one of the methods to provide safety information for passengers before aircraft takeoff. However, passengers' enthusiasm toward safety demonstrations is normally low. Therefore, the study of passengers' perception toward safety briefings on board an aircraft is important in increasing the safety awareness for the travelling public on commercial aircraft. A survey was distributed to measure the perceptions of Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) faculty and staff, Aerospace students, and international students who have traveled in the last year. It was generally found that watching the cabin safety demonstration before aircraft takeoff was believed to be important for passengers. However, the attention to the safety demonstration remained low because the safety briefings were not good enough in terms of clear communication, particularly in the recorded audio demonstration and the live safety demonstration methods of briefing.</p>

PIV investigation of compressibility effects on dynamic stallUnknown Date (has links)
An experimental investigation was conducted to study compressibility effects on dynamic stall for an airfoil pitching at a constant rate. Instantaneous, whole field velocity data was acquired using an on-line, video-based particle image velocimetry (PIV) system, which incorporated a passive, optical, displacement bias technique to eliminate the sign ambiguity inherent in PIV measurements of reversed flows. Vorticity data were subsequently computed from the corresponding velocity field. Free stream Mach numbers were 0.23 and 0.45, and corresponding Reynolds numbers were 280,000 and 620,000, respectively. Non-dimensional pitch rates were 0.010, 0.030, and 0.060. Although the flow was near sonic in the high speed case, no shocks were observed. The sequence of events at high speed was remarkably similar to that at both low speed and to that observed in water tank experiments. The dynamic stall process is initiated with formation and convection aft of a single, discrete, vortex. Formation and initial release of the structure is probably initiated by a van Dommelen-Shen unsteady separation. A region of closed vorticity forms over the forward portion of the airfoil, caused by periodic reattachment and shedding of discrete vortical structures of positive sign from the leading edge. These structures and the adverse pressure gradient then induce production of negative vorticity near the airfoil surface, which is convected forward and accumulates near the quarter chord. Subsequently, coherent negative vorticity is ejected into the outer flow, isolating the initial structures from the leading edge. Subsequent interaction induces separation from the surface of the dynamic stall vortex, which is composed of several small, interacting structures rather than a single, large structure. / The data complement Schlieren and surface pressure investigations, which are useful but provide no information about local flow direction. The data also demonstrate the utility of PIV for investigating highly unsteady, reversed flows with dynamic boundary conditions at compressible or transonic speeds. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 54-12, Section: B, page: 6318. / Major Professor: Anjaneyulu Krothapalli. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1993.
