The phrase "a cylinder in a" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when describing a specific object or concept that involves a cylinder within a certain context or environment.
Example: "The engineer designed a cylinder in a machine that optimizes energy efficiency."
Alternatives: "a cylinder within a" or "a cylinder inside a".
He said he hoped to build the design, which requires tiny rods arrayed around a cylinder, in a few years.
The theory of stochastic stability is applied to explore the stability of a cylinder in a cross-flow.
Annular flow is the flow over a cylinder in a generally tightly confining channel or the flow between two concentric or eccentric shells.
A novel immersed boundary (IB) method has been developed for simulating multi-material heat transfer problem – a cylinder in a channel heated from below with mixed convection.
Transverse oscillations of a cylinder in a viscous fluid generate a force on the fluid that becomes non-linear at large oscillation amplitudes.
The analytical method is applied to study the stability of a cylinder in a shear flow, where fluidelastic instability is known to occur.
The MRT-LBE with non-uniform stretched grids is first validated with a number of test cases: the Poiseuille flow, the flow past a cylinder asymmetrically placed in a channel, and the flow past a cylinder in an unbounded domain.
The present results extend previous analyses for creeping drag flow past a cylinder in an infinite medium based on variational principles and provide calculations of the drag coefficient around a cylinder in the case of wall effects.
Piston and plunger pumps consist of a cylinder in which a piston or plunger moves back and forth.
The airline found a fracture in a cylinder in one of the three legs of the landing gear on a plane in Oslo during a check of its MD-80 fleet, it said.
The carpet cloak mimics the bowing of plane into a hump, which is much less radical than the stretching of a line into a cylinder in the original cloak, he notes.
