Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Buoyancy Force in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of a Two-Dimensional Continuous Ohmic Heating ProcessElzubier A. Salih, Thomas S.Y. Choong, S. Y. Sergie et al.Problem statement: Earlier work on ohmic heating technique focused on viscous food and foods containing solid particles. In this study, the use of ohmic heating on sterilization of guava juice is carried out. Computational fluid dynamics is used to model and simulate the system. Approach: Investigate the buoyancy effect on the CFD simulation of continuous ohmic heating systems of fluid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,303 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComputer Simulation of a Radiative MHD flow in a Rotating FluidHarouna NarouaA hydromagnetic free convection flow has been modeled and simulated. The flow is considered unsteady, near a moving infinite flat plate in a rotating fluid. For the radiative heat transfer to be significant, very high temperatures are involved rendering the problem highly non-linear. The simulation is based on a generic finite element scheme coupled with a stepwise Lagrange polynomial. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2016 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Role of Slope Geometry on Flowslide OccurrenceChiara DeangeliThe paper reports a study aimed to the prediction of susceptibility to flowslide of granular soil slopes as a consequence of the in situ state of stress. In particular, the slope geometry has been investigated as a factor influencing the initial state of stress. For this purpose the results of numerical models, performed by a finite different approach (FLAC), allowed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the keywordsTurbulent-Fluid-Based Simulation of Dynamic Liquefaction Using Large Deformation Analysis of Solid PhaseRohollah TaslimianTo accurately simulate the cyclic liquefaction phenomenon, it is necessary to establish a well-defined coupling between the solid particles and the high-velocity percolating pore fluid. For this purpose, the existing literature extensively examines large deformation liquefaction analyses for the solid phase, regardless of the fluid flow nonlinearity. On the other hand, the transient fluid pressure gradient governed by the turbulence … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 22 Feb 2024 · 6,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of the Application of Turbulence Models in the Calculation of Supersonic Gas JetIlina Ekaterina Evgenevna, Ilina Tamara Evgenevna, Bulat Pavel ViktorovichThis article considers the adequacy of the usage of various two-parameter differential turbulence models for the calculation of supersonic non-calculative (overexpanded and underexpanded) gas jet flowing into the environment that have a pressure equal to atmospheric. A brief historical background on the development of methods for calculating turbulent supersonic jet, which contain developed shock wave structures, is given. For each … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison and Parametric Study of Flameless Oxidation in a Gas Turbine Using Two Kinetics MechanismsMohamed Hamdi, Hmaïed Benticha, Mohamed SassiThe so-called "Flameless Oxidation" is a novel combustion mode, in which combustion products are re-circulated and mixed into the fresh incoming fuel and air streams. This reduces the concentration of the reactants and thereby reducing the reaction rate through avoiding the formation of sharp high temperature zones in the combustion chamber. Flameless combustion has been acknowledged as one of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Drives and Control Integrated Time-Domain Dynamic Analysis and Modeling Approach Applied To Ultra-Precision Machine ToolsTianjian Li, Shijin Chen, Haijun Zhang, Kai ChengProblem statement: Machines dynamic performance depends not only upon the mechanical structure and components but also the drives and control system. However, the design of the machines is still at the nascent stage by working on an individual machine basis, hence lacks generic scientific approach and design guideline. Approach: Using computer models integrated drives and control system to predict the … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2011 · 8,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKey Structural Aspects for Adaptive Facades - Activity Progress from the EU-COST Action TU1403 ‘Structural’ Task GroupChiara Bedon, Dániel Honfi, Marcin Kozłowski et al.Adaptive facades are getting more and more widespread in modern buildings. These facade systems, among many others, need to fulfil the requirements of several structural considerations, such as structural safety, serviceability, durability, robustness and fire safety, being typically defined for standard facades and building enclosures in general. The current paper discusses special structural characteristics which need to be taken into … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2018 · 13,380 accessesView PDFCite
