Flow in heated straight rotating pipe

Fully developed laminar flow in a straight heated rotating pipe which includes the influence of both, coriolis force and buoyancy force, has been considered analytically. The solution has been obtained in terms of series expansions; the solution is therefore restricted to small values of the parameters involved.     

Nonlinear vibration and stability analysis of the curved microtube conveying fluid as a model of the micro coriolis flowmeters based on strain gradient theory

Micro coriolis flowmeters are extensively used in fluidic micro circuits and are of great interest to many researchers. Straight and curved coriolis flowmeters are common types of coriolis flowmeters. Therefore in the present work, the out-of- plane vibration and stability of curved micro tubes are investigated to study the dynamic behavior of curved coriolis flowmeters. The Hamilton principle is applied to derive a novel governing equation based on strain gradient theory for the curved micro tube conveying fluid. Lagrangian nonlinear strain is adopted to take into account the geometric nonlinearity and analyze hardening behavior as a result of the cubic nonlinear terms. Linear stability analysis is carried out to investigate the possibility of linear instabilities. Afterwards, the first nonlinear out-of-plane natural frequency is plotted versus fluid velocity to determine the influence of nonlinear terms and hardening behavior on stability of the system. The influence of the length scale parameter is studied by comparison of the results for classical, coupled stress and strain gradient theory. Finally the phase difference between two points at upstream and downstream is plotted versus fluid velocity. Linear relation between the phase difference and fluid velocity is noticed, thus the curved coriolis flowmeter can be calibrated to measure flow rate by measuring the phase difference between two points.     

Electromagnetic force on the wall of cylindrical waveguide

When transverse electric (TE) wave or transverse magnetic (TM) wave propagates inside a cylindrical waveguide, the electromagnetic force on the wall is investigated. The characteristics of surface charge, current, electric force, magnetic force and electromagnetic force are studied. The results show that the electric force is tension and magnetic force is press. The surface density of electromagnetic force on the wall can be calculated by the difference between magnetic and electric energy density there. For TE wave, the electromagnetic force distribution on the walls may be either tension or pressure in general. However, the electromagnetic force is always pressure for TM wave.     

Interaction of a Solitary Wave with an External Force Moving with Variable Speed

The interaction of a solitary wave with an external force moving with constant acceleration is studied within the forced Korteweg-de Vries equation. For the case of a weak isolated force an asymptotic model based on equations for the amplitude and position of the solitary wave is developed. Phase portraits for this asymptotic system are obtained analytically and numerically. Analysis has shown that an accelerated force of either sign can capture a solitary wave if the acceleration is less than a certain critical value, depending on the forcing amplitude (for the case of a constant force speed only a positive force can capture a solitary wave). Direct numerical simulation of the forced Korteweg-de Vries equation has confirmed the predictions of the asymptotic model. Also, it is shown numerically that the accelerated force can capture more than one solitary wave.

Dynamic modeling and simulations of the wave glider

Wave glider is a new wave-powered autonomous marine vehicle, which is composed of a submerged glider connected to a surface floater via a tether. Such an advanced vessel is designed to harvest energy in ocean surface waves to generate forward thrust. Equipped with solar panel and battery as well as some dedicated sensors, the wave glider is able to achieve long duration missions via sea-side control. In this paper, a 4-DOF (degree-of-freedom) mathematical model of the wave glider is established using Newton–Euler approach. The second-order wave drift force on the horizontal plane and the first order wave force on the vertical direction are considered. The hydrodynamic parameters were calculated using the potential flow theory and empirical formula. Furthermore, motion simulation of the wave glider with respect to the sensitivity analysis to some key environmental factors and the heading control ability is conducted. The simulation results are presented and discussed in detail, which provides theoretical guidance and reference for wave glider design.     

Vibrations of a rotating oblate ellipsoidal shell

We consider the vibrations of an oblate ellipsoidal shell with a central rigid insertion rotating with a constant angular velocity about a vertical symmetry axis. The spin axis rotates uniformly. We construct partial differential equations describing the periodic elastic motion of the shell due to the translational, relative, and coriolis inertial forces. The displacement in the equatorial region of the shell is found as a function of the spin angular velocity for different values of the geometric parameters of the shell.Translated Teoreticheskaya i Prikladnaya Mekhanika, No. 20, pp. 81–84, 1989.

Numerical study of the stability of breakwater built on a sloped porous seabed under tsunami loading

Strong earthquake induced huge tsunami has occurred for three times in Pacific ocean in recent ten years; for example, the tsunami triggered by the Sumatra earthquake in 2004, Chile earthquake in 2010 and Tohoku earthquake (Japan) in 2011. Tsunami carrying huge energy always would bring high risks to the population living near to coastline. Breakwater is widely used to dissipate the wave energy, and protect coastline and ports. However, they are vulnerable when being attacked by tsunami wave. At present, the interaction mechanism between tsunami, breakwater and its seabed foundation is not fully understood. In this study, the dynamics and stability of a breakwater under the attacking of tsunami wave is investigated by adopting an integrated model PORO-WSSI 2D, in which the VARANS equation for wave motion, and the Biot’s dynamic equation for soil are used. Based on the numerical results, it is found that offshore breakwater interacts intensively with tsunami wave when it overtopping and overflowing over a breakwater. The impact force on the lateral side of breakwater applied by tsunami wave is huge. The shear failure is likely to occur in the seabed foundation of breakwater. The liquefaction is unlikely to occur due to the fact that there is basically no upward seepage force in seabed foundation in the process of tsunami wave passing through the breakwater.     

Recent progresses in studies on wave-current loads on foundation structure with piles and slab?

The foundation structure with piles and slab is widely used in o?shore wind farm construction in shallow water. Experimental studies on the hydrodynamic loads acting on the piles and slab under irregular waves and currents are summarized with discussion on the e?ects of pile grouping on the wave forces and wave impact loads on the slab locating near the free surface. By applying the theoretical solution of the wave di?racted by the slab and using the Morison equation to evaluate the wave force on the piles, the e?ects of the slab on the wave forces acting on the piles are analyzed. Based on the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and the volume of ?uid (VOF) method, a numerical wave basin is developed to simulate the wave-structure interaction. The computed maximum wave force on the foundation structure with piles and slab agrees well with the measured data. The violent deformation, breaking, and run-up of the wave around the structure are presented and discussed. Further work on the turbulent ?ow structures and large deformation of the free surface due to interaction of the waves and foundation structures of o?shore wind farms needs more e?cient approaches for evaluating hydrodynamic loads under the e?ects of nonlinear waves and currents.     

Sources Acting on the Free Boundary of a Porous Biot Medium and Reflection on This Boundary

A homogeneous isotropic porous Biot half-space z 0 with free boundary z = 0 is considered. This half-space is excited by point sources situated on the boundary z = 0 and applied to the elastic phase. The following four sources are considered: (1) a normal force, (2) a center of tangent forces, (3) a center of rotation, and (4) a tangent force. For all these sources, the wave fields are established. Relationships between the wave fields in a porous medium and the respective wave fields in an elastic medium are investigated. The reflection coefficients on the free boundary of the porous Biot half-space are determined and studied. Bibliography: 11 titles.     

The microwave spectrum of methyl cyanide andl-type doubling in CH3CN,CH3NC,CH3CCH and CF3CCH

The microwave spectrum of Methyl cyanide molecule has been obtained corresponding to the transitions J=0→1, J=1→2 and J=2→3 in the ground vibrational state as well as in the excited degenerate vibrational statesv ₈=1 andv ₈=2. The frequencies of the lines are measured by using a secondary standard spectrograph taking mostly the ammonia lines as standards. The value of the vibration-rotation interaction constanta ₈ has been found to be ?27·3±0·4 mc./sec. The spectrum obtained for the transitions J=1→2 and J=2→3 withv ₈=1 has been understood on the basis of Nielsen’s theory ofl-type doubling in symmetric top molecules. The assignments give a value of 0·94 for the coriolis interaction constant which is consistent with the value obtained from the infra-red spectral data. The earlier work on similar transitions involvingl-type doubling in the molecules CH₃NC, CH₃CCH and CF₃CCH has been reviewed and the inconsistencies in the values of some parameters like coriolis interaction constant ζ and the rotation constant D_JK obtained by earlier workers from their assignments are pointed out. A reassignment of the transitions and the involved parameters removes these inconsistencies and yields coriolis interaction constants which are in close agreement with those obtained from infra-red spectral data. The following are the different ζ values obtained:

$$\begin{gathered}\zeta _8 in CH_3 NC = 0 \cdot 93 \hfill \\\zeta _{10} in CH_3 CCH = 1 \cdot 00 \hfill \\\zeta _9 in CH_3 CCH = 0 \cdot 95 \hfill \\\zeta _{10} in CF_3 CCH = 0 \cdot 6 \hfill \\\end{gathered}$$

Non-linear peristaltic flow of a non-Newtonian fluid under effect of a magnetic field in a planar channel

This paper is devoted to the study of peristaltic flow of a fourth grade fluid in a channel under the considerations of long wavelength and low-Reynolds number. The flow is examined in a wave frame of reference moving with velocity of the wave. The analytic solution has been obtained in the form of a stream function from which the axial velocity and axial pressure gradient have been derived. The results for the pressure rise and frictional force per wavelength have also been computed numerically. The computational results indicate that the pressure rise and frictional force per wavelength are increased in case of non-Newtonian fluid when compared with Newtonian fluid. Several graphs of physical interest are displayed and discussed.

Decay rates of energy of the 1D damped original nonlinear wave equation

We consider the decay rate of energy of the 1D damped original nonlinear wave equation. We first construct a new energy function. Then, employing the perturbed energy method and the generalized Young’s inequality, we prove that, with a general growth assumption on the nonlinear damping force near the origin, the decay rate of energy is governed by a dissipative ordinary differential equation. This allows us to recover the classical exponential, polynomial, or logarithmic decay rate for the linear, polynomial or exponentially degenerating damping force near the origin, respectively. Unlike the linear wave equation, the exponential decay rate constant depends on the initial data, due to the nonlinearity.     

Strongly nonlinear internal soliton load on a small vertical circular cylinder in two-layer fluids

The solutions of MCC theory are used to investigate larger-amplitude strongly nonlinear internal soliton load on a small surface-piercing circular cylinder in two-layer fluids. By comparing the wave profiles and instantaneous horizontal velocities calculated by MCC theory with those of KdV theory and experimental data, we verify the validity of MCC theory for larger-amplitude strongly nonlinear internal soliton. The accelerations are computed, and then force and torque on a small cylinder are estimated based on Morison’s formula for both MCC and KdV theories. Computed results show that the internal soliton force and torque become more and more large and wide with the increase of amplitude for MCC theory. The location of torque crest calculated by MCC theory departs from origin (moving to the right) as the amplitude grows and whenever the inertial term is included or not, the wave forces computed based on the two theories both have small discrepancies for the same amplitude, but when the inertial term is included, the torque obtained by MCC theory will be much larger and the torque obtained by KdV still have a small discrepancy. The reasons are presented in detail. The internal wave force will be underestimated if the traditional KdV theory is used. Therefore, ocean engineers should consider the large-amplitude strongly nonlinear internal soliton load on marine construct carefully.     

Resonant Triads Involving a Nondispersive Wave

A simple system is studied, involving a single nondispersive breaking wave and its interaction with two dispersive modes through a resonant triad. The dynamics of this system are shown to be quite rich, through a combined theoretical and numerical analysis. A sharply defined traveling wave with a corner seems to attract almost all initial data with enough energy, provided the nondispersive wave is unstable to the other two when standing alone. In other cases, the solution converges to quasiperiodic final states, unless extra symmetries force the solution to converge to simpler configurations.
