Numerical Simulations of Sloshing and the Thermodynamic Response Due to Mixing
In this paper, we apply computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to study the thermodynamic response enhanced by sloshing inside liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel tanks.

Earthquake and Tsunami NaTech Risk Assessment for Oil Storage Facilities
ABSTRACT Interaction of natural and technological hazards (NaTech) events, such as tsunamis and earthquakes, can affect industrial facilities such as those featuring anchored atmospheric storage tanks. Consequences of natural events on this kind of installation may include the release of hazardous substances, which in turn can lead to industrial ...

Abstract Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous plasma phenomenon that plays a critical role in particle heating and energization. During reconnection, the topology of magnetic field rearranges, depositing energy into the surrounding plasma through bulk flow, thermal heating, or non‐thermal particle acceleration.

On Sloshing Modes in Equilateral-Polygonal-Section Containers
Vertical sloshing is the liquid surface motion in a container forced to oscillate in the vertical direction. The present paper concerns the vertical sloshing in various equilateral-polygonal-section containers such as octagonal-, heptagonal-, hexagonal-,

Resonant sloshing in shallow water
The ordinary differential equation \[ {\textstyle\frac{1}{3}}\kappa^2(g^{\prime\prime}+g) - \lambda g - {\textstyle\frac{3}{2}}g^2 + \frac{2}{\pi} \cos t = -\frac{3}{2}\int_{-\pi}^{\pi}g^2\,{\rm d}t, \] which represents forced water waves on shallow water near resonance, is considered when the dispersion κ is small.

Actuation of Cell Layers in Three Dimensions
ABSTRACT The alignment of fibers and cells in living tissues affect their mechanical properties and functionality. In this context, one can draw an analogy between tissues and nematic liquid crystal elastomers. We explore this analogy by growing fibroblasts on 2D‐patterned substrates and observing the contraction of cell sheets upon detachment from the

Hydrodynamic Analysis of Partially Filled Liquid Tanks Subject to 3D Vehicular Manoeuvring
This paper is concerned with liquid sloshing in a partially filled container due to 3-dimensional vehicle motion. The liquid sloshing is described by a set of linear modal equations derived from the potential flow theory, which can be applied to liquid ...

We demonstrate that Principal Component Analysis (PCA) can be used in dynamic OCT to substantially reduce artifacts from strong specular reflections, isolate movement within the sample, and create thin, histology‐like images, thereby avoiding the need for complex, time‐consuming techniques used in clinical histopathology.

Widespread Impact‐Induced Crustal Permeability on the Early Earth
Abstract The early Earth (i.e., Archean and Hadean Eons, 2.5–4.0 and 4.0–4.5 Ga, respectively) experienced frequent cosmic bombardment. Impacts have been shown to stimulate crustal alteration, for instance via hydrothermal systems active for up to millions of years post‐impact.

ANALYSIS OF A SLOSHING BEAM EXPERIMENT
Fuel sloshing is seen as a potential mechanism to reduce the loads in aircraft due to atmospheric turbulence and gusts via an increase in the effective damping. A series of steprelease experiments have been performed on a cantilever beam structure with a tank at its end filled with different levels of liquid in order to provide experimental data to ...
