Modeling Restrained Shrinkage Induced Cracking in Concrete Rings Using the Thick Level Set Approach

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Modeling restrained shrinkage-induced damage and cracking in concrete is addressed herein. The novel Thick Level Set (TLS) damage growth and crack propagation model is used and adapted by introducing shrinkage contribution into the formulation.

Multiphysics Simulations of Collisionless Plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2018
Collisionless plasmas, mostly present in astrophysical and space environments, often require a kinetic treatment as given by the Vlasov equation. Unfortunately, the six-dimensional Vlasov equation can only be solved on very small parts of the considered spatial domain. However, in some cases, e.g.

Optimal design of a long and slender compressive strut [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This article deals with the optimal design of long and slender compressive struts. The main objective is to minimize the mass of the struts under certain non-failure constraints and thus find the optimal material.

Multiphysics Measurements for Detection of Gas Hydrate Formation in Undersaturated Oil Coreflooding Experiments with Seawater Injection

open access: yesEnergies
A solid phase of natural gas hydrates can form from dissolved gas in oil during cold water injection into shallow undersaturated oil reservoirs. This creates significant risks to oil production due to potential permeability reduction and flow assurance ...

Correlation between total pressure losses of highly loaded annular diffusers and integral stage design parameters

open access: yesJournal of the Global Power and Propulsion Society, 2018
Diffusers convert kinetic flow energy into a rise in static pressure. This pressure recovery is the primary aerodynamic design objective for exhaust gas diffusers in power-generating steam and gas turbines. The total pressure loss is an equally important

Multiphysics Simulations of a Thermoelectric Generator [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2015
Transient multiphysics simulations are performed to investigate the thermal and electric performance of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) module placed between hot and cold blocks. Effects of heat radiation, thermal and electric contact on the TEG are examined and the simulated results are compared with experimental data.

Axial Motion Characterization of a Helical Ionic Polymer Metal Composite Actuator and Its Application in 3-DOF Micro-Parallel Platforms

open access: yesActuators, 2021
In this work, a helical ionic polymer metal composite (IPMC) was fabricated by thermal treatment in a mold with helix grooves. The axial actuation behaviors of the helical IPMC actuator were observed, and the electromechanical and electrochemical ...
