LONGITUDINAL-RADIAL VIBRATIONS OF A VISCOELASTIC CYLINDRICAL THREE-LAYER STRUCTURE

The paper considers a cylindrical three-layer structure of arbitrary thickness made of viscoelastic material. It consists of two external bearing layers and a middle layer, the materials of which are generally different. The problem of nonstationary longitudinal-radial vibrations of such a structure is formulated. Based on the exact solutions in transformations of the three-dimensional problem of the linear theory of viscoelasticity for a circular cylindrical three-layer body, a mathematical model of its nonstationary longitudinal-radial vibrations is developed. Equations are derived that allow, based on the results of solving the vibration equations, to determine the stress-strain state of a cylindrical structure and its layers in arbitrary sections. The results obtained allow for special cases of transition into cylindrical viscoelastic and elastic two-layer structures, as well as into homogeneous single-layer cylindrical structures and round rods.

Comparative Performance Assessment between Incompressible and Compressible Solvers to Simulate a Cavitating Wake

To study the effects of fluid compressibility on the dynamics of a cavitating vortex street flow in a regime where the vortex shedding frequency increases as a result of the cavitation increase, the cavitating wake behind a wedge was simulated employing both incompressible and compressible solvers. To do this, a compressible cavitation model was implemented, modifying the Zwart-Gerber-Belamri (ZGB) incompressible solver and including a pressure limit and absorbing boundary conditions to prevent a non-physical pressure field. To validate the performance of the compressible model, preliminary simulations were carried out on a 1D Sod cavitating tube and the cavitating vortex shedding behind a circular body at laminar flow conditions. The results of the cavitating wake behind the wedge with the incompressible and the compressible solvers showed similar predictions in terms of pressure, vortex shedding frequency, and instantaneous and average vapor volume fraction profiles. In spite of this, differences were obtained in the energy content of the fluid force fluctuations on the body at higher frequencies, which appear to be better resolved and amplified when the compressibility model is considered. Overall, both solvers provided comparable results in terms of cavitation phenomena that are well aligned with experimental observations.

Seismic Assessment of Existing Masonry Buildings Using Damage Mechanics

This paper presents research concerning the numerical simulation of existing masonry buildings when subjected to pushover analysis. A nonlinear static analysis is undertaken using the commercial software ABAQUS standard, in which masonry structures are modelled using damage mechanics. To validate the chosen input parameters, this study compares two different approaches for static nonlinear modelling, the Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Equivalent Frame Method (EFM), for a simple masonry building. The two methods are compared using the guidelines from Part 3 of Eurocode 8. This study identifies the advantages and disadvantages of various modelling approaches based on the results obtained. The results are also compared in terms of capacity curves and damage distributions for the simple case study of a masonry building created to compare numerical methods. Subsequently, nonlinear pushover analyses with ABAQUS (FEM) were performed on the North Tower of Monserrate Palace, Portugal, in which the material parameters were calibrated by considering the results of dynamic characterisation tests conducted in-situ. Regarding the circular body of Monserrate Palace, the damage distribution of the structure is analysed in detail, aiming to contribute to the modelling of such structural configurations through the Equivalent Frame Method.

Performance evaluation and prediction model for novel elliptical cyclone separators

A novel cyclone separator with elliptical body has been proposed recently, but the general applicability of this technical approach has yet to be confirmed. Performance comparisons of the classical cyclone separators with circular and elliptical body were investigated experimentally. It was determined that the elliptical cyclones obtain an increment of 0.5–2% in separation efficiency and a reduction of 10–30% in pressure drop compared to the standard models. The industrial large-scale elliptical cyclone also has higher separation efficiency and lower pressure drop. In addition, the prediction model of fraction efficiency is established based on the force analysis of particles in elliptical equilibrium orbit, and the prediction model of pressure drop also has been developed. Both models demonstrate acceptable accuracy, with an error is less than 10%. The study not only confirms the performance superiority of the elliptical cyclones, but also establishes an acceptable prediction model for their performance assessment.

Using laparoscope to remove an ectopic intrauterine device in the anterior wall of urinary bladder: A case report

BACKGROUND An intrauterine device (IUD) is a contraceptive device placed in the uterine cavity and is a common contraceptive method for Chinese women. However, an IUD may cause complications due to placement time, intrauterine pressure and other factors. Ectopic IUDs are among the most serious complications. Ectopic IUDs are common in the myometrium and periuterine organs, and there are few reports of ectopic IUDs in the urinary bladder, especially in the anterior wall. CASE SUMMARY A 52-year-old woman was hospitalized due to a urinary bladder foreign body found via abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) examination. The patient had a 2-year history of recurrent abdominal distension and lower abdominal pain, accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, dysuria and other discomfort. Ultrasound examination revealed foreign bodies in the bladder cavity, with calculus on the surface of the foreign bodies. CT revealed a circular foreign body on the anterior wall of the urinary bladder, suggesting the possibility of an ectopic IUD. After laparoscopic exploration, an annular IUD was found in the anterior wall of urinary bladder, and an oval calculus with a diameter of approximately 2 cm was attached to the surface of the bladder cavity. The IUD and calculus were successfully and completely removed. The patient recovered well after surgery. CONCLUSION Abdominal ultrasound and CT are effective methods for detecting ectopic IUDs. The IUD is located in the urinary bladder and requires early surgical treatment. The choice of surgical method is determined by comprehensively considering the depth of the IUD in the bladder muscle layer, the situation of complicated calculus, the situation of intravesical inflammation and medical technology and equipment.

Numerical simulation on magnetohydrodynamics convection in annulus inclined elliptical enclosure

ABSTRACT The present work numerically demonstrates the uniform magnetohydrodynamics Newtonian, laminar natural convection in elliptical cold enclosure with inner hot circular body considering the influence of its vertical movement on the fluid flow and heat transfer. The gap area between the elliptical enclosure and the inner body had been filled by the Al2O3-water nanofluid in the upper layer, whereas lower layer has been filled by the porous medium that has been saturated by an identical nanofluid. The local thermal equilibrium model had been implemented to model the nanofluid and porous media. Additionally, Darcy–Brinkman model considered in the representation of the porous media. The three governing equations of heat and fluid flow like energy and momentum of fluid, in addition to the continuity equation, had been solved numerically utilising finite element formulation. The parameters under investigation are the Rayleigh number value 10 3 ≤ Ra ≤ 10 6 , Darcy number 10 − 5 ≤ Da ≤ 10 − 1 , and Hartmann number 0 ≤ Ha ≤ 60 . Additionally, two geometrical parameters had been selected, which are the three different locations of inner cylinder (top, middle, bottom), as well as the four different values of the enclosure’s orientation angle γ = 0 ∘ , γ = 90 ∘ , γ = 180 ∘ , γ = 270 ∘ . The results have been presented to reflect the influence of the abovementioned parameters on isotherms and streamlines, besides Nusselt’s number. It has been proved that to improve the heat transfer rate, it is better to locate inner body in bottom region. The Nusselt number increases by 17.44% when it is moved from the top to the bottom. Additionally, the Nusselt number along the elliptical enclosure attached to the nanofluid layer when rotating the elliptical body from γ = 0 ∘ into γ = 180 ∘ leads to lower the Nusselt number by 32.3372%. This result is exactly inverse considering Nusselt number along nanofluid–porous layer which proved that increasing the orientation angle from γ = 0 ∘ to γ = 180 ∘ contributed to enhancing Nusselt number by 24.7009%.

Impact dynamics of droplets on circular bodies: Exploring the influence of wettability, viscosity, and body dimensions using the lattice Boltzmann method

This study used the multi-relaxation time pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann method to examine the impact dynamics of droplets on circular bodies, focusing on the influence of the surface wettability, the viscosity of droplets by choosing three distinct Reynolds numbers (Re = 100, 300, and 500), and the body diameters. Initially, the study examined impact behavior under non-wetting and wetting conditions, revealing distinct behaviors characterized by dimensional stretch lengths in horizontal and vertical directions. Furthermore, the study evaluated the impact of viscosity by varying the Reynolds number, providing a better understanding of droplet behavior on the solid body. In addition, the effect of changing the diameter of the circular body was examined. This research underlines the importance of surface wettability in the dynamics of contact with the droplets impinging on it. In particular, higher wettability correlates with a monotonic increase in viscosity by acting on the Reynolds number. In addition, the droplet profile responds to changes in Reynolds number, albeit with relatively limited deformation, even in the case of intense interaction with the wetting surface. These results highlight the complex interplay between wettability, droplet dynamics, viscosity, body dimensions, and surface interactions during impact processes.

Numerical analysis of an oscillating square and circular bluff body submerged in the wake of an identical static bluff body: A GPU Accelerated Immersed Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann Approach

Hydrodynamic forces acting on marine structures, tubes, and objects can trigger disruptive vibrations. This study is an effort to encapsulate the results of wake induced vibration among tandem bodies. Specifically, impact of a static upstream body on a downstream oscillating body at Reynolds number 100 and constant frequency ratio Fr=1.0. The effects of streamwise displacement are investigated in a tandem arrangement of 1.05≤Lx/D≤12.0. In this study an in-house developed code employed that combines an immersed boundary lattice Boltzmann method with a structural equation and is accelerated using a graphical processing unit. When comparing scenario 1 (both bodies oscillate) to scenario 2 (only the downstream body oscillates), the study finds that the upstream square body motion has little effect on the downstream square body oscillation. However, the upstream circular body motion significantly impacts the downstream body oscillation. In addition, the study observes that the maximum amplitude occurs after reaching the critical spacing in scenario 2, whereas it occurs at and after the critical spacing in scenario 1. The critical spacing ratio is similar in both scenarios but varies for square and circular bodies. Lastly, the study examines the flow physics and hydrodynamic force coefficients of the downstream oscillating body.

Summer cooling island effects of blue-green spaces in severe cold regions: A case study of harbin, China

Blue-green spaces exhibit a cooling island effect in urban thermal environments. This study, through field measurements combined with thermal comfort indices and CFD simulations, explored the summer cooling island effect in micro-scale blue-green spaces of severe cold regions, summarizing the spatiotemporal characteristics of the effect. Measurements were conducted in Harbin at three water bodies of varying sizes and shapes, revealing a notable cooling island effect at a distance of 6–8 m from the water. The highest Mean Cooling Island Intensity (MCII) of 3.18 °C was recorded at 10 a.m. in a circular water body with compound vegetation. Furthermore, the combination of water bodies and vegetation proved more effective in reducing temperatures than single factors alone, with the peak coupling effect of 6.37 °C at 6 m from the water at 11 a.m. Thermal environment surveys determined Harbin's Neutral Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) temperature range to be 13.3–25.06 °C. Additionally, modeling and optimization comparisons in ENVI-met confirmed that adding a small number of deciduous trees to grassland areas and altering the type of waterside platform can optimize the thermal environment. This research provides a solid foundation for the optimized design of blue-green spaces in severe cold regions.

Overlapping Grid-Based Spectral Collocation Technique for Bioconvective Flow of MHD Williamson Nanofluid over a Radiative Circular Cylindrical Body with Activation Energy

The amalgamation of motile microbes in nanofluid (NF) is important in upsurging the thermal conductivity of various systems, including micro-fluid devices, chip-shaped micro-devices, and enzyme biosensors. The current scrutiny focuses on the bioconvective flow of magneto-Williamson NFs containing motile microbes through a horizontal circular cylinder placed in a porous medium with nonlinear mixed convection and thermal radiation, heat sink/source, variable fluid properties, activation energy with chemical and microbial reactions, and Brownian motion for both nanoparticles and microbes. The flow analysis has also been considered subject to velocity slips, suction/injection, and heat convective and zero mass flux constraints at the boundary. The governing equations have been converted to a non-dimensional form using similarity variables, and the overlapping grid-based spectral collocation technique has been executed to procure solutions numerically. The graphical interpretation of various pertinent variables in the flow profiles and physical quantities of engineering attentiveness is provided and discussed. The results reveal that NF flow is accelerated by nonlinear thermal convection, velocity slip, magnetic fields, and variable viscosity parameters but decelerated by the Williamson fluid and suction parameters. The inclusion of nonlinear thermal radiation and variable thermal conductivity helps to enhance the fluid temperature and heat transfer rate. The concentration of both nanoparticles and motile microbes is promoted by the incorporation of activation energy in the flow system. The contribution of microbial Brownian motion along with microbial reactions on flow quantities justifies the importance of these features in the dynamics of motile microbes.

Comparative analysis of flag based energy harvester undergoing extraneous induced excitation

This study presents a detailed comparative analysis of the piezoelectric flexible plate under the influence of oscillating wakes of different bluff bodies. The piezoelectric plate is tested to determine the optimal configuration for energy harvesting from the wake flow of bluff bodies with different cross-sections in a low-speed closed-circuit wind tunnel. The Reynolds number is varied from 10000 to 75000 and the distance between the bluff body and plate is changed from 1D to 7D (where D is the diameter of the bluff body). The flutter of the plate without a bluff body is considered as a benchmark case and then subsequently the bluff bodies are introduced to see energy generation behavior. The results show that the bluff body caused a significant reduction of 50% in the flow speed as compared to the flutter case along with an improvement of 847% in energy harvesting output. Furthermore, selecting an appropriate bluff body ensures higher peak-to-peak flapping amplitude, which in turn produces a higher amount of electrical energy due to higher bending curvature and resultant strain produced in the piezoelectric plate. An increase of 125% in flapping amplitude is obtained using a bluff body compared to the flutter case. Furthermore, comparison within the various bluff bodies shows that change in cross-section has an enormous impact on output, and an increase of 515% in output power is obtained compared to the typical circular bluff body, which is more often quoted in the literature. Additionally, bending modes are identified and the variation in output power is linked with the flapping behavior of the piezoelectric plate, which is helpful in understanding the energy generation behavior of the piezo plate.

Geochronology and geochemistry of the El Salvador plutonic complex (Sierra de Tamaulipas, NE Mexico): cenozoic tectonic implications of the eastern Mexican alkaline province

ABSTRACT The El Salvador plutonic complex is a 9.2 km2 circular body within the Sierra de Tamaulipas, part of the Eastern Mexican Alkaline Province (EMAP). Three alkaline magmatic suites were identified from El Salvador from the geochemical analysis of 20 samples. Suite A (SiO2 = 58.3–65.3 wt.%) is ferroan (Fe* = 0.761–0.873) and alkalic (MALI = 4.83–9.89). In contrast, Suites B (SiO2 = 52.5–60.8 wt.%; Fe* = 0.680–0.756) and C (SiO2 = 50.5–67.1 wt.%; Fe* = 0.616–0.749) are magnesian. Suite B is alkali-calcic (MALI = -2.18–4.64), while Suite C is alkalic (MALI = 4.48–8.59). All suites display arc-related signatures. U-Pb and fission-track geochronology data reveal two uplift episodes during the cooling history of Suite A. One in the Late Eocene was based on U-Pb zircon (38.42 ± 0.21 Ma) and titanite ages (35.54 ± 3.77 Ma). The other was during the Oligocene from U-Pb apatite (29.9 ± 6.54 Ma) and fission-track titanite (30.2 ± 5.53 Ma) and apatite ages (32.7 ± 7.06 Ma). Integrating the arc-related signatures of El Salvador rocks with the well-documented Palaeogene arc magmatism of the Sierra Madre del Sur, we propose that the mantle beneath the EMAP experienced metasomatism during the Early Permian (and possibly the Early Jurassic) but not after the Late Cretaceous, ruling out Cenozoic slab subduction in eastern Mexico. In the absence of a slab to explain the El Salvador magmatism, we suggest a long-lasting, widespread mantle upwelling beneath Mexico’s northern half in response to the Farallon slab’s break-up. Under this context, the westward drift of the North American plate led to the Mexican Foreland Basin lithosphere reaching this massive mantle upwelling in late Eocene times to produce the EMAP magmatism.

Aerodynamic Characteristics of Circular and Noncircular Cross-Sectional Missile Configurations

This paper summarizes an investigation of the aerodynamic performance of missile configurations with axisymmetric and nonaxisymmetric cross sections. Configurations have either a circular, oval, pentagonal, triangular, or square cross section and were tested at three different flight conditions: Ma=1.17 and Reynolds number per inch of 3.88×105, Ma=2.49 and Reynolds number per inch of 6.88×105, and Ma=4.33 and Reynolds number per inch of 8.74×105. The influence of Mach number, shape, and fin deflection was investigated. A prescribed body motion was used to expedite the prediction of the missile aerodynamic forces and moments at different angles of attack compared to many static computational fluid dynamics simulations. The results show that the oval missile model is the most aerodynamically efficient body at all the tested speeds. At higher speeds, all nonstandard configurations produce more normal force and better aerodynamic efficiency than the circular body. The triangular configuration is much less stable than the other models.

Hydrodynamic response of a pitching elastic hydrofoil in the wake of a circular body

A hydrofoil with a classic cylinder–hydrofoil structure is adopted for study in this paper. The hydrofoil is invented by National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) and so-called NACA0012.The hydrofoil is placed in an unsteady turbulent environment by positioning a cylinder in front of the hydrofoil. The simulation includes a solid stress model to calculate the hydrofoil's elastic deformation. Large-eddy simulation is used to simulate the effects of different materials on the hydrodynamic performance and noise characteristics. Researching the hydrodynamic performance and acoustic radiation characteristics of the pitching hydrofoil in a turbulent flow provides a reference basis for its design and manufacture. It was found that different material properties have limited effects on the hydrodynamic performance of pitching hydrofoils, and the generated lift is similar for each case. An analysis of stress changes shows that the stress increases with increasing elastic modulus and as the fixed rod is approached. In contrast, the displacement decreases as the elastic modulus increases. The displacement increases with the distance from the fixed rod. In addition, the noise component results show that thickness noise dominates, and an elastic material hydrofoil has better noise performance.

Research on the Cultivation of New Farmers under the Background of "Promoting Agriculture through Digital Commerce"

The vigorous promotion of the "Digital Commerce Revitalizing Agriculture" project has provided a good model for realizing economic value for the construction of digital rural areas. In order to accelerate the modernization of agriculture and rural areas and high-quality rural development, and improve the resource participation of rural population, it will become an important work content in the next stage of digital rural construction. Faced with new opportunities, while grasping the internal, organizational, economic, and innovative driving forces that promote the development of new farmers, we need to face the following challenges: the types of professions brought about by digitization need to be clarified, the direction of employment needs to be clarified, the scale of the platform needs to be expanded, and digital technology needs to achieve full process coverage. We need to optimize the new farmer training model through five paths: identifying with "ideological power", expanding the "cultivation chain", building a "technical framework", building a "talent pool", and building a "circular body", in order to accumulate energy for the realization of rural talent revitalization.

Jurassic Uranium-Thorium Deposit of Peralkaline Granitic Rocks, Bokan Mountain, Prince of Wales Island, Southeastern Alaska

The Lower Jurassic (ca. 177 Ma) Bokan Mountain granitic complex, located on southern Prince of Wales Island, southernmost Alaska hosts a high-grade uranium-thorium deposit with past production. The complex is a circular body (~3 km in diameter) which intruded Paleozoic granitoids as well as metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks of the Alexander Terrane of the North American Cordillera. This shallow seated intrusion, which is composed of fractionated peralkaline granites, is a zoned body with a dominant core of arfvedsonite granite and a rim of aegirine granite. All the rock-forming minerals typically record a two-stage growth history and aegirine and arfvedsonite were the last major phases to crystallize from the magma. Both arfvedsonite and aegirine granites have overlapping compositions. The rocks have high contents of rare earth elements, Th, U and high field strength elements (Zr, Nb, Hf and Ta) and low contents of Sr, Ba, Eu and Ti, typical of peralkaline granites. The complex hosts structurally controlled rare metal mineralization, which is associated with the late-stage of magma evolution and hydrothermal fluids. Fluorine complexing played a role during the transportation of rare metals in hydrothermal fluids. The U-Th deposit, which occurs at the margin of the aegirine granite zone, includes structurally controlled shear zone-hosted lenses and irregularly shaped pipe-like orebodies. U-Th mineralization is associated with desilicified and albitized granitic rocks and includes mainly uranothorite and uraninite. These minerals mostly form small ovoids in veinlets typically 0.1 to 1 mm wide. The mine produced about 77,000 t of ore at a grade of ~0.76% U3O8 and 3% of ThO2. The parent magma of the pluton was likely derived from a metasomatized lithospheric source (mantle or lower crust), which was enriched by subduction related processes during Paleozoic time.

Free convection of Ostwald-de Waele fluid within square enclosure equipped with heat-generating circular solid: MRT-LBM simulation

BackgroundNon-Newtonian fluids are frequently present in many natural phenomena and industrial processes. This research focuses on free convection of Ostwald-de Waele fluid in a square enclosure equipped with a conducting circular body of constant internal volumetric heat flux. MethodsThe multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann approach is used for the numerical simulations of this physical problem. The 2-dimensional 9-discrete velocity (D2Q9) model is applied to the hydrodynamic field and the 2-dimensional 5-discrete velocity (D2Q5) model is used to thermal field. The bounce-back condition coupled with the quadratic interpolation is employed at circular boundaries. Significant findingsThe results show that the increase in the volumetric heat generation reverses, partially or completely, the direction of heat transfer on the hot left wall. Moreover, the employment of a dilatant fluid instead of pseudoplastic and Newtonian fluids leads to an increase in the maximum temperature in the case of a heat-generating obstacle.

Numerical simulation of bluff body turbulent flows using hybrid RANS/LES turbulence models

Many engineering applications involve turbulent flows around bluff bodies. Because of their intrinsically unsteady dynamics, bluff body characteristic flows feature unique turbulence-related phenomena, which makes their numerical modeling challenging. Accordingly, accounting for a circular bluff body flow configuration, three different turbulence modeling approaches are investigated in this work, (i) Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS), (ii) large eddy simulation (LES), and (iii) hybrid RANS/LES. Regarding the hybrid approaches, two variants of the detached eddy simulation (DES) one, delayed DES (DDES) and improved delayed DES (IDDES), are studied. As RANS model, the $$\mathrm{k}-\mathrm{\omega SST}$$ is utilized here. This RANS model is also used as the background one for both DDES and IDDES. Wall-adaptive local eddy viscosity (WALE) is used in turn as the sub-grid scale (SGS) model for LES. The velocity two-point correlation function is used to assess the mesh size requirements. When compared to experimental data, the obtained numerical results indicate that RANS overestimates the recirculating bubble length by over 18% and is not capable of describing the turbulent kinetic energy and the flow anisotropy in agreement with the experimental data. In contrast, LES, DDES, and IDDES are all within 1% of the recirculating bubble length while predicting both the Reynolds stress tensor components and the corresponding flow anisotropy in agreement with the measurements. Besides, normalized anisotropy tensor invariants maxima in the shear layer were reproduced by all scale resolving models studied here, but they failed to yield the local extrema measured within the wake recirculation region. A comparative analysis of the anisotropic Reynolds stress tensor invariances underscores the adequacy of the scale resolving models.
