Calculation of vertical velocity in three-dimensional,shallow water equation,finite element models

Computation of vertical velocity within the confines of a three-dimensional, finite element model is a difficult but important task. This paper examines four approaches to the solution of the overdetermined system of equations arising when the first-order continuity equation is solved in conjunction with two boundary conditions. The traditional (TRAD) method neglects one boundary condition, solving the continuity equation with the remaining boundary condition. The vertical derivative of continuity (VDC) method involves solution of the second-order equation obtained by differentiation of the continuity equation with respect to the vertical co-ordinate. The least squares (LS) method minimizes the residuals of the continuity equation (in discrete form) and the two boundary conditions. The adjoint (ADJ) method minimizes the residuals of the continuity equation (in continuous form) and the two boundary conditions. Two domains are considered: a quarter-annular harbour and the southwest coast of Vancouver Island. Results indicate that the highest-quality solution is obtained with both LS and ADJ. Furthermore, ADJ requires less CPU and memory than LS. Therefore the optimal method for computation of vertical velocity in a three-dimensional finite element model is the adjoint (ADJ) method. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

上覆单相弹性层饱和地基上弹性基础的竖向振动分析

基于Biot动力控制方程,运用Fourier积分变换技术,并按照混合边值条件和连续条件建立了上覆单相弹性层饱和地基上弹性基础竖向振动的对偶积分方程.利用正交多项式将对偶积分方程化简,得到了动力柔度系数随无量纲频率b0的变化关系曲线,从而得到了上覆单相弹性层饱和地基上弹性基础的竖向振动规律.数值分析结果表明,对于弹性基础,当弹性基础的挠曲刚度较大时,发现弹性基础的竖向振动特性与刚性基础的类同,可忽略挠曲刚度对竖向振动的影响,且当无量纲频率较小的时候,动力柔度系数Cv随着无量纲频率b0的变化而发生显著的变化,但当无量纲频率b0较大的时候,动力柔度系数Cv受无量纲频率的影响较小,甚至基本上不受影响.当弹性基础的挠曲刚度较小时,随着挠曲刚度的减小,弹性基础的竖向振动将发生显著的变化,动力柔度系数Cv的实部和虚部的绝对值均变大.     

An analytic solution of dense two-phase flow in a vertical pipeline

According to a mathematical model for dense two-phase flows presented in theprevious paper,a dense two-phase flow in a vertical pipeline is analytically solved,and theanalytic expressions of velocity of each continuous phase and dispersed phase arerespectively derived The results show that when the drag force between two phases dependslinearly on their relative velocity,the relative velocity profile in the pipeline coincides withDarcy’s law except for the thin layer region near the pipeline wall,and that the theoreticalassumptions in the dense two-phase flow theory mentioned are reasonable.     

Extended Mac-Millan's equation

The principle of classical dynamics and Appell-Chetayev ’s assumption are extended to non-inertial frame, from which extended Mac-Millan ’s equation is derived for non-holonomic system in non-inertial system.     

Vertical rotation effect on turbulence characteristics in an open channel flow

This paper solves the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation by a fractional-step method with the Reynolds number Reτ=194 and the rotation number Nτ=0-0.12. When Nτ is less than 0.06, the turbulence statistics relevant to the spanwise velocity fluctuation are enhanced, but other statistics are suppressed. When Nτ is larger than 0.06, all the turbulence statistics decrease significantly. Reynolds stress budgets elucidate that turbulence kinetic energy in the vertical direction is transferred into the streamwise and spanwise directions. The flow structures exhibit that the bursting processes near the bottom wall are ejected toward the free surface. Evident change of near-surface streak structures of the velocity fluctuations are revealed.

THE SOLUTION TO THE DESTABILIZING CRITICAL LOAD OF CIRCULAR DOUBLE ARTICULATED ARCH UNDER GOING VERTICAL DISTRIBUTIVE LOAD g0/cos2θ

In this paper, after taking the effect of axis force on bending into consideration, the general potential energy for the circular double articulated arch is established undergoing vertical distributive load g₀/cos²θ. With sufficient engineering precision, the fourth approximations to the destabilizing critical load of the arch under t his load are obtained by Ritz method. The approximations to the critical load ta ble are listed for various center angles of arch, and are contrasted with the critical load circular arch undergoing radial uniform load. Some reference results have been obtained.
