Effects of Degrees of Freedom on Calculating Diffusion Properties in Nanoporous Materials br

Berend Smit, Henglu Xu, Raffaela Cabriolu

If one carries out a molecular simulation ofNparticlesusing periodic boundary conditions, linear momentum is conserved,and hence, the number of degrees of freedom is set to 3N-3. Inmost programs, this number of degrees of freedom is the defaultsetting. How ...

Entropic Fokker-Planck kinetic model

Mohammadhossein Gorji

The diffusion limit of kinetic systems has been subject of numerous studies since prominent works of Lebowitz et al. [1] and van Kampen [2]. More recently, the topic has seen a fresh interest from the rarefied gas simulation perspective. In particular, Fok ...

Simulation and experimental validation of pulsating heat pipes

John Richard Thome, Jackson Braz Marcinichen, Philippe Aubin, Filippo Cataldo

The one-dimensional transient numerical code of JJ Cooling Innovation has been significantly improved to simulate the thermal/hydraulic performance of pulsating heat pipes (PHPs). Using a mechanistic approach, the liquid slug and vapor plug flows and their ...

A new regret analysis for Adam-type algorithms

Volkan Cevher, Ahmet Alacaoglu

In this paper, we focus on a theory-practice gap for Adam and its variants (AMSgrad, AdamNC, etc.). In practice, these algorithms are used with a constant first-order moment parameter 1 (typically between 0:9 and 0:99). In theory, regret guarantees for onl ...

Numerical and experimental investigations on non-contacting seals for small-scale applications

Suresh Katuwal Chhetri

Dynamic non-contacting seals have been identified as the most appropriate sealing technology for reduced-scale and high-speed turbomachinery applications since they provide a clearance gap preventing rotor-to-seal contact during operation. Yet, any clearan ...

Metal hydride compressor control device and method

Andreas Züttel, Noris André Gallandat

The present relates to a Metal hydride compressor control method for generating a variable output pressure P_desired_outPut, comprising a first step of inflowing gaseous hydrogen into a metal hydride compartment at a constant temperature and then stopping ...

Micropipette calibration by differential pressure measurements

Philippe Renaud, David Vincent Bonzon

The pipetting of small volumes, typically ranging between a few and one thousand microliters (mu l), is widely used in many laboratories and essentially relies on air displacement to aspirate and dispense the liquid contained in a small plastic tip. ...

Scheduling trips through a bottleneck: monotonicity and stability

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

This paper investigates the stability of departure time choice within a population of commuters that need to pass through a bottleneck of constant capacity. It is shown that the corresponding utility function is monotonic if and only if the marginal utilit ...

Cost for a controlled linear KdV equation

Joachim Krieger, Shengquan Xiang

The controllability of the linearized KdV equation with right Neumann control is studied in the pioneering work of Rosier [25]. However, the proof is by contradiction arguments and the value of the observability constant remains unknown, though rich mathem ...

Dynamic wetting in pressure-infiltration of ceramic particle preforms by molten metal

Gionata Schneider

This thesis investigates the interaction between mechanically induced flow of a liquid metal into a porous solid, and kinetic effects at the triple line. The approach is experimental and focuses on metal-ceramic systems for which the literature gives value ...

Depth-averaged momentum equation for gravity currents with varying density: coefficient in pressure term

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are often modelled by means of shallow water equations (SWEs). In these models, simplifications such as the consideration of a constant layer-averaged density are common. This note presents the complete and general derivation of a 2D depth ...

Stiffness, force and drift capacity of in-plane loaded modern unreinforced brick masonry walls

Bastian Valentin Wilding

In countries of low to moderate seismicity, such as Switzerland, unreinforced masonry (URM) is mainly used in residential buildings due to its good insulation capacity and fire resistance along with a fair compressive strength. URM walls however show a lim ...

alpha-Diimine homologues of cisplatin: synthesis, speciation in DMSO/water and cytotoxicity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

The Pt(ii) -diimine complexes [PtCl2{N-2-(HCNR)(2)}] (R = C6H11, 1; 4-C6H10OH, 2; 4-C6H4CH3, 3; 4-C6H4OH, 4) and [PtCl2{N-2-(CH3CNOH)(2)}] (5) were prepared in 60-81% yields from the 1:1 molar reactions of cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)(2)] with the appropriate -diimine ...

Water retention behaviour of compacted bentonites: experimental observations and constitutive model

Anne-Catherine Adolphine M Dieudonné

Bentonite-based materials are studied as potential barriers for the geological disposal of radioactive waste. In this context, the hydro-mechanical behaviour of the engineered barrier is first characterized by free swelling conditions followed by constant ...

Adaptive elastic networks as models of supercooled liquids

Matthieu Wyart

The thermodynamics and dynamics of supercooled liquids correlate with their elasticity. In particular for covalent networks, the jump of specific heat is small and the liquid is strong near the threshold valence where the network acquires rigidity. By cont ...
