A combined procedure for two-dimensional Delaunay mesh generation algorithm and an adaptive remeshing technique with higher-order compressible flow solver is presented. A pseudo-code procedure is described for the adaptive remeshing technique. The flux-difference splitting scheme with a modified multidimensional dissipation for high-speed compressible flow analysis on unstructured meshes is proposed. The scheme eliminates nonphysical flow solutions such as the spurious bump of the carbuncle phenomenon observed from the bow shock of the flow over a blunt body and the oscillation in the odd-even grid perturbation in a straight duct for the Quirk's odd-even decoupling test. The proposed scheme is further extended to achieve higher-order spatial and temporal solution accuracy. The performance of the combined procedure is evaluated on unstructured triangular meshes by solving several steady-state and transient high-speed compressible flow problems.

The analysis involves an adaptive grid that is created under a criterion of element categorization of filling states and locations in the total region at each time step. By using an adaptive grid wherein the elements, finer than those in internal and external regions, are distributed at the surface region through refinement and coarsening procedures, a more efficient analysis of transient fluid flow with free surface is achieved. Using the proposed numerical technique, the collapse of a dam is analyzed. The numerical results agree well with the theoretical solutions as well as with the experimental results. Through comparisons with the numerical results of several cases using different types of grids, the efficiency of the proposed technique is verified.

The damage threshold measurement of gold films is carried out with ultrashort-pulse laser. An enhanced two temperature model is developed to encounter the limitation of linear modeling during ultrashort pulse laser ablation. In which the electron heat capacity is calculated using a quantum mechanical approach based on a Fermi-Dirac distribution, temperature-dependent electron thermal conductivity valid beyond the Fermi temperature is adopted, and reflectivity and absorption coefficient are estimated by applying a temperature-dependent electron relaxation time. The predicted damage threshold using the proposed enhanced modelclosely agreed with experimental results, demonstrating the importance of considering transient thermal and optical properties in the modeling of ultrashort pulse laser ablation.

Two methodologies for predicting thermal relaxation time of tissue subjected to pulsed laser irradiation is introduced by the calculation the optical penetration depth and by the investigation of the temperature diffusion behavior. First approach is that both x-axial and y-axial thermal relaxation times are predicted and they are superposed to achieve the thermal relaxation time (${\tau}_1$) for two-dimensional square tissue model. Another approach to achieve thermal relaxation time (${\tau}_2$) is measuring the time required for local temperature drop until $e^{-1}$ of the maximum laser induced heating.

This paper deals with approximate analytical solutions for the two-region one-dimensional model describing the charging process of stratified thermal storage tanks at variable inlet temperature with momentum-induced mixing. An arbitrarily increasing inlet temperature is decomposed into inherent step changes and intervals of continuous change. Each continuous interval is approximated as a finite number of piecewise linear functions, which admits an analytical solution for perfectly mixed region. Using the Laplace transform, the temperature profiles in plug flow region with both the semi-infinite and adiabatic ends are successfully derived in terms of well-defined functions. The effect of end condition on the solution proves to be negligible under the practical operating conditions. For a Quadratic variation of inlet temperature, the approximate solution employing a moderate number of pieces agrees excellently with the exact solution.

This paper is concerned with development of an enhanced quadratic Mindlin plate bending element. The behavior of the proposed plate element is further improved by the coupled use of non-conforming displacement modes, the selectively reduced integration scheme, and the assumed shear strain fields. The improvement may be attributable to the fact that the merits of these improvement techniques are merged in the formation of the new element in a complementary manner. The proposed quadratic finite element passes the patch tests, does not show spurious mechanism, and does not produce shear locking phenomena even with distorted meshes. It is shown that the element produces reliable solutions through numerical tests for standard benchmark problems. It is also noted that the element is applicable to transient dynamic analysis of Mindlin plates.

We analyze in detail axially symmetric theoretical study for the photothermal pulsed radiometry of a cylindrical model. The theoretical solutions describe the transient infrared radiation from the sample heated by short-duration pulsed heating. In the conventional transmission radiometry technique, the excitation source and the detector are on opposite sides of the sample, otherwise in the new single ended radiometry technique, the excitation source and the detector are on same sides of the sample. The analytical solution described for photothermal radiometry in this study would not need to cut or polish samples to measure the thermal diffusivity. Therefore the radial area and axial thickness of samples are not limited. The effects of excitation pulse duration and the area of heat source are discussed.

A two-dimensional (2D) steady state numerical model of concentration polarisation (CP) phenomena in a membrane channel has been developed using the commercially available computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package CFX (Ansys, Inc., USA). The model incorporates the transmembrane pressure (TMP), axially variable permeate flux, variable diffusivity and viscosity, and osmotic pressure effects. The model has been verified against several benchmark analytical and empirical solutions from the membrane literature. Additionally, the model is able to predict the rejection of an arbitrary solute by the membrane using a pore model, given some basic knowledge of the geometry of the solute molecule or particle, and the membrane pore geometry. This allows for predictive design of membrane systems without experimental determination of the membrane rejection for the specified operating conditions. A demonstration of the model is presented against experimental results for two uncharged test compounds (sucrose and PEG1000) from the literature. The model will be extended to incorporate charge effects, transient simulations, three-dimensional (3D) geometry and turbulent effects in future work.

A digital controller with a low-power approach for point-of-load synchronous buck converters is discussed and compared with its analog counterpart to confirm its feasibility for system integration. The tri-mode digital controller IC in $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process is presented to demonstrate solutions that include a PID, quarter PID, and robust RST compensators. These compensators address the steady-state, stand-by, and transient modes according to the system operating point. An idle-tone free condition for ${\Sigma}-{\Delta}$ DPWM reduces the inherent tone noise under DC-excitation. Compared with that of the traditional approach, this condition generates a quasi-pure modulation signal. Experimental results verify the closed-loop performances and confirm the power-saving mechanism of the proposed controller.

This paper is derived a solutions for an analytical model of an induction motor and the formula of regenerative power, based on spiral vector. The torque is controlled linearity through variations of the slip angular velocity, based on the field acceleration method (FAM). And also PWM inverter fed induction motor drives is schemed to be easily a regenerative power. The experimental tests verify the performance of the FAM, proving that good behavior of the drive is achieved in the transient and steady state operating condition. and are discussed to shave the power that regenerative power is measured at the operating acceleration or deceleration of servo system.
