An Enhanced Tire Model for Dynamic Simulation based on Geometrically Exact Shells

open access: yesArchive of Mechanical Engineering, 2016
In the present work, a tire model is derived based on geometrically exact shells. The discretization is done with the help of isoparametric quadrilateral finite elements.

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

Algebraic expressions for convective solute transport in a homogeneous soil below a surface barrier

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal
Engineered surface barriers are expected to be used to cover sites containing buried waste radionuclides after site closure. Understanding the transport of contaminants in the soil below a surface barrier is of importance in order to protect the ...

Isoperimetric inequalities on slabs with applications to cubes and Gaussian slabs

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract We study isoperimetric inequalities on “slabs”, namely weighted Riemannian manifolds obtained as the product of the uniform measure on a finite length interval with a codimension‐one base. As our two main applications, we consider the case when the base is the flat torus R2/2Z2$\mathbb {R}^2 / 2 \mathbb {Z}^2$ and the standard Gaussian measure

Characteristic Number: Theory and Its Application to Shape Analysis

open access: yesAxioms, 2014
Geometric invariants are important for shape recognition and matching. Existing invariants in projective geometry are typically defined on the limited number (e.g., five for the classical cross-ratio) of collinear planar points and also lack the ability ...

Photometric Diagnostic of the Sheath Dynamics and Electron Density Trends in Single and Dual Frequency CCRF Argon Plasmas

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A methodological study is presented on a noninvasive photometric diagnostic for determining trends in electron density and sheath dynamics in single (1f) and a dual (2f) radio frequency capacitively coupled (CCRF) argon plasmas. The 1f discharges are operated at 13.56 and 27.12 MHz, respectively, while the 2f discharge is driven by both ...

Local realities, global discourses and decolonising the curriculum in a post‐92 UK context: Academic voices on enacting decolonial curriculum change

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explored how lecturers in a post‐92 UK university conceptualise and enact decolonial curriculum principles within their teaching and programme design. Drawing on semi‐structured interviews with academic staff across multiple disciplines, the research adopts a qualitative, phenomenologically informed approach to examine the interplay

Resonance‐induced restoration of rock permeability degraded by heavy components of crude oil

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Resonance‐induced changes occur in filtration properties of sedimentary rocks in crude paraffin oil flow under acoustic vibrations. Experimental data on (a) pressure drop; (b) permeability; (c) pressure at the rock inlet; and (d) pressure at the rock outlet are presented.

Study on fracture parameter calibration and failure characteristics of rock with hole and crack

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The SIF and plastic zone equations for a single hole and crack have been derived. The model's failure state leads to the identification of four types of cracks. The plastic zone increases with increased brittleness and decreased crack length. Abstract Cracks within the surrounding rock of roadways significantly affect their stability and failure ...
