Two‐dimensional modeling for stability analysis of two‐phase stratified flow

The effect of wavelength and relative velocity on the disturbed interface of two‐phase stratified regime is modeled and discussed. To analyze the stability, a small perturbation is imposed on the interface. Growth or decline of the disturbed wave, relative velocity, and surface tension with respect to time will be discussed numerically. Newly developed scheme applied to a two‐dimensional flow field and the governing Navier–Stokes equations in laminar regime are solved. Finite volume method together with non‐staggered curvilinear grid is a very effective approach to capture interface shape with time. Because of the interface shape, for any time advancement, a new grid is performed separately on each stratified field, liquid, and gas regime. The results are compared with the analytical characteristics method and one‐dimensional modeling. This comparison shows that solving the momentum equation including viscosity term leads to physically more realistic results. In addition, the newly developed method is capable of predicting two‐phase stratified flow behavior more precisely than one‐dimensional modeling. It was perceived that the surface tension has an inevitable role in dissipation of interface instability and convergence of the two‐phase flow model. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis of poly(isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate) and its facile side‐chain functionalization into hydroxy‐polyurethanes

4‐Isopropenyl phenol ( 4‐IPP ) is a versatile dual functional intermediate that can be prepared readily from bisphenol‐A ( BPA ). Through etherification with epichlorohydrin to the phenolic group of 4‐IPP , it can be converted into 4‐isopropenyl phenyl glycidyl ether ( IPGE ). On further reaction with carbon dioxide in the presence of tetra‐n‐butyl ammonium bromide ( TBAB ) as the catalyst, IPGE was transformed into 4‐isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate ( IPPC ) in 90% yield. Cationic polymerization of IPPC with strong acid such as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or boron trifluoride diethyl etherate as the catalyst at ?40 °C gave a linear poly(isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate), poly( IPPC ), with multicyclic carbonate groups substituted uniformly at the side‐chains of the polymer. The cyclic carbonate groups of poly( IPPC ) were further reacted with different aliphatic amines and diamines resulting in formation of polymers with hydroxy‐polyurethane on side‐chains. Syntheses, characterizations of poly( IPPC ) and its conversion into hydroxy‐polyurethane crosslinked polymers were presented. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Pilot-Wave Theory and Financial Option Pricing

This paper tries to argue why pilot-wave theory could be of use in financial economics. We introduce the notion of information wave. We consider a stochastic guidance equation and part of the drift term of that equation makes reference to the phase of the wave. In order to embed information in financial option pricing we could use such a drift. We also briefly argue how we could embed information in the pricing kernel of the option price.

Boundary stabilization for a non‐linear beam on elastic bearings

In this paper, we study the equation under non‐linear boundary conditions which model the vibrations of a beam clamped at x=0 and supported by a non‐linear bearing at x=L. By adding only one damping mechanism at x=L, we prove the existence of a global solution and exponential decay of the energy. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A Mean–variance analysis of arbitrage portfolios

Based on the careful analysis of the definition of arbitrage portfolio and its return, the author presents a mean–variance analysis of the return of arbitrage portfolios, which implies that Korkie and Turtle's results ( B. Korkie, H.J. Turtle, A mean–variance analysis of self-financing portfolios, Manage. Sci. 48 (2002) 427–443) are misleading. A practical example is given to show the difference between the arbitrage portfolio frontier and the usual portfolio frontier.     

A local domain‐free discretization method for simulation of incompressible flows over moving bodies

This paper presents a local domain‐free discretization (DFD) method for the simulation of unsteady flows over moving bodies governed by the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The discretization strategy of DFD is that the discrete form of partial differential equations at an interior point may involve some points outside the solution domain. All the mesh points are classified as interior points, exterior dependent points and exterior independent points. The functional values at the exterior dependent points are updated at each time step by the approximate form of solution near the boundary. When the body is moving, only the status of points is changed and the mesh can stay fixed. The issue of ‘freshly cleared nodes/cells’ encountered in usual sharp interface methods does not pose any particular difficulty in the presented method. The Galerkin finite‐element approximation is used for spatial discretization, and the discrete equations are integrated in time via a dual‐time‐stepping scheme based on artificial compressibility. In order to validate the present method for moving‐boundary flow problems, two groups of flow phenomena have been simulated: (1) flows over a fixed circular cylinder, a harmonic in‐line oscillating cylinder in fluid at rest and a transversely oscillating cylinder in uniform flow; (2) flows over a pure pitching airfoil, a heaving–pitching airfoil and a deforming airfoil. The predictions show good agreement with the published numerical results or experimental data. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effects of hydroxyl‐group end capping and branching on the physical properties of tailored polyethylene terephthalates

Polyethylene terephthalates (PETs) with well‐defined chemical structures were prepared by molecular design, and the effect of the chemical structure on the physical properties of PET was investigated. Hydroxyl‐group end‐capped PETs with η_inh = 0.4–0.6 dL/g exhibited a viscosity behavior similar to Bingham fluids, although other PETs with similar molecular weights (MWs) showed Newtonian flow behavior. This rheological feature was more noticeable for hydroxyl‐group end‐capped branched PETs. In addition, hydroxyl‐group end‐capped branched PETs became solidlike from 80 rad/s as the frequency was increased. On the other hand, hydroxyl end‐capped linear PETs showed a noticeable viscoelastic transition peak around 20 rad/s. High MW linear and branched PETs with η_inh ≥ 0.9 prepared by multistep synthesis showed non‐Newtonian fluid behavior. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 39: 1027–1035, 2001
