In coflow jets with relatively large size nozzle and low fuel jet velocity, the buoyancy effect arises from the density difference between fuel and air streams. The present study investigated the behavior of such a buoyant cold Jet both numerically and experimentally, especially when the fuel stream has higher density than air. It has been demonstrated that the cold jet has a circular cone shape since upwardly injected fuel jet decelerates and forms a stagnation region, when the fuel jet was composed of propane highly diluted with nitrogen. When the fuel was moderately diluted, numerical results showed the Kelvin-Helmholtz type instability along the mixing layer of the jet. The stagnation height increases nonlihearly with fuel jet velocity with the power of approximately 1.64.

For the reduction of fuel consumption of high speed, the aerodynamic drag must be reduced. In early vehicle design process, it is very important to have information about aerodynamic characteristics of design models. In this phase CFD methods are usually used to predict the aerodynamic forces. But commercial programs using turbulence models cannot give a good agreement with experimental result and have also problems with convergence. PowerFLOW employs a new technology called DIGITAL PHYSICS, which provides a different approach to simulating fluids. DIGITAL PHYSICS uses a lattice-based approach (extended from lattice-gas and lattice-Boltzmann methods) where time, space and velocity are discrete. This discrete system represents the Wavier-Stokes continuum behavior without the numerical instability Issues of traditional CFD solvers, such as convergence. In this paper, aerodynamic performance of vehicles are simulated using PowerFLOW by Exa and results are compared with experimental wind tunnel data.

An efficient meshfree method based on a stabilized conforming nodal integration method is developed for elastoplastic contact analysis of metal forming processes. In this approach, strain smoothing stabilization is introduced to eliminate spatial instability in Galerkin meshfree methods when the weak form is integrated by a nodal integration. The gradient matrix associated with strain smoothing satisfies the integration constraint for linear exactness in the Galerkin approximation. Strain smoothing formulation and numerical procedures for path-dependent problems are introduced. Applications of metal forming analysis are presented, from which the computational efficiency has been improved significantly without loss of accuracy.

In this paper the vibration system is composed of a rotating cantilever pipe conveying fluid. The equation of motion is derived by using the Lagrange's equation. Generally, the system of pipe conveying fluid becomes unstable by flutter. Therefore, the influence of the rotating angular velocity, mass ratio and the velocity of fluid flow on the stability of a cantilever pipe by the numerical method are studied. The influence of mass ratio, the velocity of fluid, the angular velocity of a cantilever pipe and the coupling of these factors on the stability of a cantilever pipe are analytically clarified. The critical fluid velocity ($u_{cr}$) is proportional to the angular velocity of the cantilever pipe. In this paper Flutter(instability) is always occurred in the second mode of the system.

The increased interest in the design of energy efficient ships post IMO regulation on enforcing EEDI has encouraged researchers to reevaluate the numerical methods in predicting important hull design parameters. The prediction of added resistance and stability of ships in the rough sea environment dictates selection of ship hulls. A 3D panel method based on Green function is developed for vessel motion prediction. The effects of parametric instability are also investigated using the Volterra series approach to model the hydrostatic variation due to ship motions. The added resistance is calculated using the near field pressure integration method.

This paper presents a new formulation of the kinematics of closed-chain mechanisms and its applications to obtaining the kinematic solutions and analyzing the singularities. Closed-chain mechanisms under consideration may have the redundancy in the number of joints. A closed-chain mechanism can be treated as the parallel connection of two open-chains with respect to a point of interest. The kinematics of a closed-chain mechanism is then obtained by imposing the kinematic constraints of the closed-chain on the kinematics of the two open-chains. First, we formulate the kinematics of a closed-chain mechanism using the kinematic constraint between the controllable active joints and the rest of joints, instead of the kinematic constraint between the two open-chains. The kinematic formulation presented in this paper is valid for closed-chain mechanisms with and without the redundancy. Next, based on the derived kinematics of a closed-chain mechanism, we provide the kinematic solutions which are more physically meaningful and less sensitive to numerical instability, and also suggest an effective way to analyze the singularities. Finally, the computational cost associated with the kinematic formulation is analyzed.

Various physical limitations which intrinsically exist in the manipulator control system, for example kinematic limits and torque limit, cause some undesirable effects. Specifically, when one or more actuators are saturated the expected control performance can not be anticipated and in some cases it induces instability of the system. The effect of torque limit, especially for redundant manipulators, is studied in this article, and an analytic method to reconstruct the control input using the redundancy is proposed based on the kinematically decomposed modeling of redundant manipulators. It results to no degradation of the output motion closed-loop dynamics at the cost of the least degradation of the null motion closed-loop dynamics. Numerical simulations help to verify the advantages of the proposed scheme.

The problem of thermal stability of an exothermic reactive viscous fluid between two parallel walls in the plane Poiseuille and Couette flow configurations is investigated for different thermal boundary conditions. Neglecting reactant consumption, the closed-form solutions obtained from the momentum equation was inserted into the energy equation due to dissipative effect of viscosity. The resulting energy equation was analyzed for criticality using the variational method technique. The problem is characterized by two parameters: the Nusselt number(N) and the dynamic parameter($\Lambda$). We observed that the thermal and dynamical boundary conditions of the wall have led to a significant departure from known results. The influence of the variable pre-exponential factor, due to the numerical exponent m, also give further insight into the behavior of the system and the results expressed graphically and in tabular forms.

This paper deals with the dynamic stability and vibration of a non-uniform cantilevered pipe conveying fluid. The present model consists of two segments with different cross-sections. Governing equations of motion are derived by extended Hamilton's principle, and the numerical scheme using finite element method is applied to obtain the discretized equations. The critical flow velocities and stability maps of the pipe are obtained by changing step ratios, mass ratios and internal damping parameters of the pipe. Finally, the vibrational modes associated with flutter are shown graphically.

In this paper, static and oscillatory instability of a nanotube conveying fluid and modelled as a thin-walled beam is investigated. Analytically nonlocal effect, effects of boundary conditions, transverse shear and rotary inertia are incorporated in this study. The governing equations and the two different boundary conditions are derived through Hamilton's principle. Numerical analysis is performed by using extend Galerkin method which enables us to obtain more exact solutions compared with conventional Galerkin method. Variations of critical flow velocity for different boundary conditions of a nanotube with analytically nonlocal effect, partially nonlocal effect and local effect of a nanotube are investigated and pertinent conclusion is outlined.
