Heat transfer in the entrance region of annular laminar flow with constant and different heat flux on two walls

Heat transfer differs in the regions where the flow is developed and developing thermally. These regions can be differentiated by using the thermal entry length. Many researchers have presented correlations to determine the thermal entry length for natural ...

Area preserving flows and metriplectic dynamics on an annulus

Tudor Ratiu

In this paper, we present metriplectic extensions of the Lie–Poisson dynamics of fluid flows over the unit annulus for both the Lebesgue [Formula: see text]-pairing and the Sobolev [Formula: see text]-pairing. Several examples are provided including 2D Nav ...

Drag reduction of flexible disks through vortex ring manipulation

Mrudhula Baskaran

Extreme weather events are increasing in frequency in recent years due to global climate change. These events damage infrastructure and pose an open challenge to engineers to design more weather-resistant infrastructure. As engineers, we turn to nature fo ...

Improving Group Testing via Gradient Descent

Pavlos Nikolopoulos

We study the problem of group testing with non-identical, independent priors. So far, the pooling strategies that have been proposed in the literature take the following approach: a hand-crafted test design along with a decoding strategy is proposed, and g ...

FIRST COMPARISON STUDIES IN DYNAMIC APERTURE FOR NESTED MAGNETS AND BASELINE LATTICE IN THE FCC-ee

Tatiana Pieloni, Mike Seidel, Léon Van Riesen-Haupt, Cristobal Miguel Garcia Jaimes

A significant project such as the FCC-ee (with 91.17 km circumference) entails numerous challenges to ensure the stability and performance of the machine. In the pursuit of contributing to the improvement of energy consumption during its operation, the exp ...

Regulation ofthe swimming kinematics oflampreys Petromyzon marinusacross changes in viscosity

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Yuexia Luna Lin

The bodies of most swimming fishes are very flexible and deform as result of both external fluid dynamic forces and internal musculoskeletal forces. If fluid forces change, the body motion will also change unless the fish senses the change and alters its m ...

Computational conceptual design — typological exploration of spatial truss systems through optimization

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth

Exploring a wide range of design options is crucial for every sound conceptual design process. In the conventional structural design workflow, optimization techniques are generally employed to generate well-performing design options. However, focusing only ...

Design, prototyping, and thermo-mechanical modelling of a neutron spallation target impacted by high-energy proton-beam pulses in the n_TOF facility at CERN

Raffaele Esposito

This manuscript describes the design work and the R&D activities carried out for the third-generation neutron production target in the neutron Time-Of-Flight (n_TOF) facility at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN). The facility is composed ...

From coating flow patterns to porous body wake dynamics via multiscale models

Pier Giuseppe Ledda

Multiscale phenomena are involved in countless problems in fluid mechanics. Coating flows are known to exhibit a broad variety of patterns, such as wine tears in a glass and dripping of fresh paint applied on a wall. Coating flows are typically modeled und ...

Gyrokinetic simulations of turbulence and zonal flows driven by steep profile gradients using a delta-f approach with an evolving background Maxwellian

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Moahan Murugappan

Long global gyrokinetic turbulence simulations are particularly challenging in situations where the system deviates strongly from its initial state and when fluctuation levels are high, for example, in strong gradient regions. For particle-in-cell simulati ...

Window View Quality: Why It Matters and What We Should Do

Marilyne Andersen, Caroline Karmann

We lack consensus on a unified definition for window view quality that is applicable across occupancies and building types. In addition, while this is a topic of growing interest, there is limited research underway due to its complex nature, insufficient f ...

Technical and economic feasibility study of high-current HTS bus bars for fusion reactors

Rainer Wesche, Kamil Sedlák, Roberto Guarino

In this study, we present a technical and economic assessment of high-current HTS bus bars for primary use in fusion reactors. Our objective is to verify the technical feasibility of such conductors and, for this purpose, we carry out a conceptual design o ...

An Exploratory Study of Reactions to Bot Comments on GitHub

Denis Gillet, Juan Carlos Farah, Sandy Ingram

The widespread use of bots to support software development makes social coding platforms such as GitHub a particularly rich source of data for the study of human-bot interaction. Software development bots are used to automate repetitive tasks, interacting ...

The late start of the mean velocity overlap log law at y(+) = O(10(3)) - a generic feature of turbulent wall layers in ducts

Peter Monkewitz

One of the key observations in the Princeton Superpipe was the late start of the logarithmic mean velocity overlap layer at a wall distance of the order of 10(3) inner units. Between y(+) approximate to 150, the start of the overlap layer in zero pressure ...
