Current investigations solely focus on application of an impulse facility in diverse area of high-speed aerodynamics and structural mechanics. Shock tube, the fundamental impulse facility, is specially designed and calibrated for present objectives. Force measurement experiments are performed on a hemispherical test model integrated with the stress wave force balance. Similar test model is considered for heat transfer measurements using coaxial thermocouple. Force and heat transfer experiments demonstrated that the strain gauge and thermocouple have lag time of 11.5 and 9 microseconds, respectively. Response time of these sensors in measuring the peak load is also measured successfully using shock tube facility. As an outcome, these sensors are found to be suitable for impulse testing. Lastly, the response of aluminum plates subjected to impulsive loading is analyzed by measuring the in-plane strain produced during deformation. Thus, possibility of forming tests in shock is also confirmed.

Bubble departure diameter has significant effect on bubble dynamics and heat transfer in boiling system, and it is difficult to be measured in a boiling system. Therefore, a method to predict bubble departure diameter is necessary to study of bubble dynamics and heat transfer in boiling system. A new theoretical model based on force analysis is proposed for the prediction of bubble departure diameter in vertical boiling system in this paper. Surface tension force, unsteady drag force, quasi-steady drag force, shear lift force, buoyancy force, hydrodynamic pressure force and contact pressure force are taken into account to build the model. Chen’s experimental data is used to validate the model, the averaged relative deviation between the predict results of the model and the experimental data is less than ±14.8%.

A drag force measurement method is presented which makes it possible to study the settling of particles in transparent and opaque fluids. A dimensionless treatment that takes into account the shear thinning effects of fluids was applied to normalize the measured drag force data. A wide range of particle Reynolds numbers can be covered by this method and a profile of friction factor versus Reynolds number can be established by the proposed dimensionless treatment. An algorithm for the prediction of settling of particles in non-Newtonian fluids was introduced. It can be executed by a computer program. With a good set of experimental data, the settling velocities predicted by the computer model are very close to the measured ones in the fluids tested. This method can be used to study the suspension properties of drilling and fracturing fluids, transparent or opaque. The wide coverage of Reynolds number range simplifies the experiment.

Although its importance is recently widely accepted, force measurement has been difficult in living biological systems, mainly due to the lack of the versatile noninvasive force measurement methods. The fluctuation theorem, which represents the thermodynamic properties of small fluctuating nonequilibrium systems, has been applied to the analysis of the thermodynamic properties of motor proteins in vitro. Here we extend it to the axonal transport (displacement) of endosomes. The distribution of the displacement fluctuation had three or four distinct peaks around multiples of a unit value, which the fluctuation theorem can convert into the drag force exerted on the endosomes. The results demonstrated that a single cargo vesicle is conveyed by one to three or four units of force production.
