Instability evolution on a shock-accelerated cylindrical fluid layer with arbitrary Atwood numbers

Developing a model to describe the shock-accelerated cylindrical fluid layer with arbitrary Atwood numbers is essential for uncovering the effect of Atwood numbers on the perturbation growth. The recent model (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 969, 2023, p. A6) reveals several contributions to the instability evolution of a shock-accelerated cylindrical fluid layer but its applicability is limited to cases with an absolute value of Atwood numbers close to $1$ , due to the employment of the thin-shell correction and interface coupling effect of the fluid layer in vacuum. By employing the linear stability analysis on a cylindrical fluid layer in which two interfaces separate three arbitrary-density fluids, the present work generalizes the thin-shell correction and interface coupling effect, and thus, extends the recent model to cases with arbitrary Atwood numbers. The accuracy of this extended model in describing the instability evolution of the shock-accelerated fluid layer before reshock is confirmed via direct numerical simulations. In the verification simulations, three fluid-layer configurations are considered, where the outer and intermediate fluids remain fixed and the density of the inner fluid is reduced. Moreover, the mechanisms underlying the effect of the Atwood number at the inner interface on the perturbation growth are mainly elucidated by employing the model to analyse each contribution. As the Atwood number decreases, the dominant contribution of the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability is enhanced due to the stronger waves reverberated inside the layer, leading to weakened perturbation growth at initial in-phase interfaces and enhanced perturbation growth at initial anti-phase interfaces.

ATLAS ITk-Pixel DAQ system

During the ATLAS High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) upgrade, the current inner detector is going to be replaced by an all-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk). The pixel detector, located in the innermost part of the ITk, comprises 9716 modules arranged in 5 cylindrical layers around the beam line. The ITk-Pixel Data AcQuisition (DAQ) system basic read-out chain includes the YARR software, communicating with the FELIX PCIe board acting as an interface connected through lpGBT transceivers to the on-detector front-end (FE) chips ITkPix. The FEs are grouped in triplet (3-FE) and mostly in 4-FE Quad Modules (QM), that are installed on local supports, which are integral parts of the ITk structure. The FELIX system is also used for performing Quality Control (QC) tests during integration. The work describes the development steps and corresponding testing and read-out chain validation results. A representative read-out sub-system will be used to develop and validate the different aspects of the read-out chain. This subsystem can be a Loaded Local Support (LLS) comprising few tens of ITkPix QMs with serial powering (SP) and opto-box connection. In order to have the readout chain validated, developments on trigger and command sending and data reading of YARR FelixClient controller were consequently required, working first on a lab setup with a couple of ITkPix single chip cards (SCCs) and QMs. This step has been carried out successfully, paving the road to the next LLS sub-system readout test, once more QMs are available.

Distortion Control in Intakes Subject to Strong Crosswinds Using Steady Vortex Generator Jets

Flow separation over the intake lip often occurs in gas turbine engines at off-design conditions such as crosswinds. The distortion transferred to the fan face detrimentally impacts the engine performance. The current study explores the efficacy of steady vortex generator jets (VGJ) to alleviate this flow distortion using high-fidelity implicit large-eddy simulations on a quasi-3D intake. The study reveals that VGJs, strategically placed on the windward side of the intake, induce coherent structures that include cylindrical jet shear layers, horseshoe vortices, and counter-rotating vortex pairs similar to transverse jets in crossflow. Parametric studies are carried out to identify the optimal VGJ location and blowing ratios. Superior flow control is achieved when the VGJs are placed on the windward side closer to the leading edge, reducing the distortion coefficient by ≈17% compared to the uncontrolled case. In contrast, when the VGJs are placed farther from the leading edge, the flow relaminarizes and the coherent structures decay rapidly due to severe acceleration over the intake lip. Consistent with experiments, our computations at higher blowing ratios (VR1.5 and VR2) show an improved pressure recovery decreasing the distortion coefficient by ≈40% due to deeper jet penetration and enhanced mixing.

Morphological structure of salivary glands, alimentary canal, and Malpighian tubules in adult Eurydema spectabilis Horváth, 1882 (Heteroptera, Pentatomidae).

Eurydema spectabilis (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) has a piercing-sucking mouth type and feeds on plant sap. In this study, the morphological structure of the salivary glands, alimentary canal, and Malpighian tubules of E. spectabilis was examined using light and scanning electron microscopy. Salivary glands consist of the principal and accessory salivary glands. In E. spectabilis, digestion begins in the mouth and ends in the anus. Alimentary canal is divided into three parts: foregut, midgut, and hindgut. The foregut consists of pharynx, esophagus, and proventriculus. The esophagus connects to the proventriculus and resembles a narrow tube. The wall of the proventriculus has a recessed structure and is surrounded by a single cylindrical layer of epithelium and muscle. The midgut is divided into three regions: the first, second, and third ventricles (V1-V3). V1 and V2 consist of single-layered cylindrical epithelium. V3 contains a single layer of cuboidal epithelium. Gastric caeca were found in the midgut. The hindgut consisted of a pylorus followed by a well-developed rectum. The wall of the rectum consists of a single-layer cuboidal epithelium and muscle. Its lumen contains numerous bacteria and uric acid crystals. The pylorus consists of a single-layered cylindrical epithelium. It is also the origin of Malpighian tubules. Malpighian tubules consist of two regions: proximal and distal. The morphological structure of the salivary glands, alimentary canal, and Malpighian tubules of E. spectabilis, which has not been studied before, was examined and discussed in comparison with other orders. It is also aimed to contribute to future studies. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: In E. spectabilis, the salivary glands are divided into principal and accessory salivary glands. Microvilli and numerous secretory granules were found in Malpighian tubules. Numerous uric acid crystals and bacteria were found in the rectum lumen.

New correlations for focusing effect evaluation of the light metal layer in the lower head of a nuclear reactor in case of severe accident

In case of a severe accident (SA) in a nuclear reactor, the core heats up and materials melt and relocate to the lower head of the vessel. In such configuration, stratification occurs between the oxide and metal phases present in the melt. When the metal phase is lighter than the oxide phase, the maximum heat flux applied to the vessel wall is concentrated at the location of this top metal layer, creating the so-called “focusing effect”. The modelling of the focusing effect is essential for SA codes to properly evaluate the vessel failure time or to demonstrate the vessel integrity, when In Vessel Retention (IVR) strategy is implemented. However, existing correlations used in SA codes for focusing effect modelling have some limitations: if the thickness of the metal layer becomes very small, they predict an extremely high heat flux. Moreover, they were validated with tests using water, whereas the Prandtl number was found to play a significant role in this heat transfer.In this paper, the focusing effect is studied based on 3D Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of a cylindrical metal layer, covering all possible metal layer characteristics in terms of geometry and boundary conditions, especially for its top surface where the intensity of radiative heat transfer may vary. The analysis of the fluid behavior and the quantitative results obtained allow to derive new correlations and a new model based on the radial profile of the mean temperature of the system and on the radial profile at the top surface. Results at reactor scale confirm the overestimation of existing 0D model used in SA codes for a thin metal layer and highlight the relevance of the proposed model for focusing effect evaluation during transient situations.

Effect of a uniform magnetic field on the nonlinear instability of double cylindrical interfaces concerning three magnetic liquids

The present manuscript relates to the movement of three immersed viscous magnetic liquids in porous media that are positioned between three concentric cylindrical interfaces. Every cylindrical layer has an axial extension that extends in both vertical directions to infinity. Moreover, the pressure gradients are the driving force behind the uniform motion of all fluids in a similar upward motion at varying velocities. Permanent magnetic fields are tangentially oriented exert stress on the system. The computations are rendered simpler by applying the viscous potential theory. The Maxwell equations are utilized for the magnetic field, while the Brinkman-Darcy equations define the fluid mobility. Moreover, the rise of the disturbance and the subsequent extraction of fuel from the tiny cracks of the reservoir stone can be managed through the implementation of engineering techniques such as electromagnetic field impacts and oil extraction engineering. Typically, the nonlinear strategy involves incorporating the applicable nonlinear boundary conditions and analyzing the linearized equations of motion. This research offers a framework for verifying theoretical models and simulations based on experimental observations. The inclusion of a homogeneous magnetic field introduces complexity to the system, rendering it a suitable candidate for validating and improving models in the field Magneto hydrodynamics. The originality of the problem lies in the dual nonlinear stability of cylindrical interfaces when subjected to uniform magnetic field. Accordingly, two nonlinear characteristic differential equations controlling the surface displacements are produced. The nonlinear stability prerequisite is met by applying the matrix concept and the multiple scale technique in conjunction with a theoretical analysis of stability. Additionally, the Routh-Hrutwitz criterion is encompassed to judge the stability cofiguration. A detailed examination of the associated nonlinear stability requirements is showed. Meanwhile, the estimated limited solutions of perturbed surfaces are achieved. For the cylindrical middle layer, it is found that the outer cylindrical interface has a more stabilizing effect than the inner one. The approximate solutions for displacements at the interface are calculated. The influence of Weber numeral of the problem on the stability profile is investigated.

The ATLAS RPC Phase-II upgrade for High Luminosity LHC era

Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) detectors play a crucial role in triggering events containing muons in the central region of ATLAS. In view of the High Luminosity-LHC program, the existing RPC system, consisting of six independent cylindrical detector layers each providing a full space time localization of hits, is currently undergoing a significant upgrade. In the next few years, 306 triplets of new generation RPCs will be installed in the innermost region of the ATLAS Muon Barrel Spectrometer, increasing from 6 to 9 the number of tracking layers, doubling the trigger lever arm. This allows a substantial enhancement of the present trigger redundancy, increasing the coverage from 76% to approximately 96%. Fitting new chambers in the narrow space left in ATLAS inner barrel was a challenge, achieved by optimizing RPC materials and thickness, featuring a 1 mm gas gap (instead of 2 mm), and 1.4 mm resistive electrodes (instead of 1.8 mm) while reaching an high rate capability. To achieve such results, a 100 ps precise Time-to-Digital Converter (TDC) has been integrated in the front-end electronics ASIC. The expected time resolution of a single 1 mm RPC gas gap is approximately 300 ps, and the possibility of a stand-alone Time of Flight measurement will have a huge impact on ATLAS searches for massive long-lived particles. An overview and the present status of the ATLAS RPC Phase-II project will be presented.

Thermotunable mid-infrared metamaterial absorption material based on combined hollow cylindrical VO2 structure

We have designed a metamaterial absorption material based on the VO2 phase transition effect. The aim is to realize thermally tunable broadband absorption in the mid-infrared band. The metamaterial absorption material is a three-layer structure. From top to bottom, the combined hollow cylindrical VO2 resonant layer, the SiO2 dielectric layer and the Ti substrate. In this work, we perform numerical simulations using the three-dimensional time-domain finite element difference method. The simulation shows that the absorption material's average absorption intensity is adjustable by temperature between 0.09 and 0.95. At a temperature of 342 K, the absorption material has an absorption bandwidth of 17.3 μm (6.43 μm to 23.73 μm) with an absorption rate above 90%. And the average absorption in this band range is 94.95%. And this band covers the wavelength of the atmospheric transparency window (8 μm∼14 μm), which suggests that our absorption material has great application prospects. In this work, we first analyze the electromagnetic field at the absorption material's resonant wavelength and explain the absorption material's absorption mechanism. Then, we investigated the absorption effect of the absorption material under the VO2 structure with different temperatures. And we explain temperature's effect on the absorption material's absorption effect by analyzing the electric field's change on the absorption material's surface at different temperatures for the same wavelength. The effect of the absorption material structural parameters on the absorption material absorption performance to determine the optimal structural parameters was then investigated. Finally, we investigate the absorption curves of the absorption material under different columnar VO2 layers and demonstrate the innovative and unique nature of the designed absorption material. The absorption material we designed has a simple structure and is easy to configure. And the absorption material has high average absorption rate and a wide absorption bandwidth. We therefore believe that the metamaterial absorption material has great application prospects in optoelectronic detection, infrared imaging and infrared stealth.

Measurement of Si pixel sensor alignment for the ALICE ITS detector

Abstract A Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) experiment is one of the four experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) designed to investigate the status of matter under very high energy densities produced during heavy-ion collisions. The ALICE inner tracking system (ITS) consists of seven concentric cylindrical layers of monolithic silicon pixel sensors known as ALICE pixel detector (ALPIDE). The sensors are used to reconstruct the paths of charged particles generated in the collisions. The sensor alignment of the detector must be adjusted to a high precision standard. The adjustment objective is to obtain a detector that can undertake high-resolution measurements. This paper introduces a method for measuring the reference markers utilized in sensor alignment determination. Markers engraved at the chip corners have been detected using the Hough transform, Canny edge detection, and template matching techniques. The distances between two markers are measured to determine the accuracy of the pixel sensor alignment before and after assembly. The proposed methods exhibit an accuracy exceeding 99% and demonstrate high speed analysis. The average processing times for detecting the circle and cross markers are 105.9 ms/image and 113.8 ms/image, respectively. The sensor alignment of the detector must be adjusted to a high precision standard. However, recent studies have shown deviations of up to 5 μ m above the desired value in the measured sensor position. Such deviations do not represent a major issue, nevertheless it is important to measure them in order to speed-up and make more accurate the recursive track-based alignment procedure used to reconstruct the position of each pixel sensor in the tracking detector. The proposed method offers a promising solution to deliver precise and rapid measurements for a large number of examined objects.

Critical velocities of a three-layer composite tube incorporating the rotary inertia and material anisotropy

Critical velocities of a three-layer composite tube subjected to a uniform internal pressure moving at a constant velocity are obtained in closed-form expressions. A Love–Kirchhoff thin shell model including the rotary inertia and material anisotropy effects is used in the formulation. The composite tube is made of three perfectly bonded cylindrical layers of dissimilar materials, each of which can be orthotropic, transversely isotropic, cubic or isotropic. Closed-form formulas for the critical velocities are first derived for the general case by incorporating the effects of material anisotropy, rotary inertia and radial stress. Specific formulas are then obtained for composite tubes without the rotary inertia effect and/or the radial stress effect and with various types of material symmetry for each layer as special cases. It is also shown that the current model for three-layer tubes can be reduced to those for single- and two-layer tubes. To illustrate the newly derived formulas, an example is provided for a composite tube consisting of an isotropic inner layer, an orthotropic core, and an isotropic outer layer. All four critical velocities of the composite tube are computed using the new closed-form formulas. Three values of the lowest critical velocity of the three-layer composite tube are analytically obtained from three sets of the new formulas, which agree well with the value computationally determined by others.

Review of the Development of an Unbonded Flexible Riser: New Material, Types of Layers, and Cross-Sectional Mechanical Properties.

Unbonded flexible risers consist of several helical and cylindrical layers, which can undergo large bending deformation and can be installed in different configurations to adapt to harsh marine environments; thus, they can be applied to transport oil and gas resources from ultra-deep waters (UDW). Due to their special geometric characteristics, they can ensure sufficient axial tensile stiffness while having small bending stiffness, which can undergo large deflection bending deformation. In recent years, the development of unbonded flexible risers has been moving in an intelligent, integrated direction. This paper presents a review of unbonded flexible risers. Firstly, the form and properties of each interlayer of an unbonded flexible riser are introduced, as well as the corresponding performance and configuration characteristics. In recent years, the development of unbonded flexible risers has been evolving, and the development of machine learning on unbonded flexible risers is discussed. Finally, with emphasis on exploring the design characteristics and working principles, three new types of unbonded flexible risers, an integrated production bundle, an unbonded flexible riser with an anti-H2S layer, and an unbonded flexible riser with a composite armor layer, are presented. The research results show that: (1) the analytical methods of cross-sectional properties of unbonded flexible risers are solved based on ideal assumptions, and the computational accuracy needs to be improved. (2) Numerical methods have evolved from equivalent simplified models to models that account for detailed geometric properties. (3) Compared with ordinary steel risers, the unbonded flexible riser is more suitable for deep-sea resource development, and the structure of each layer can be designed according to the requirements of the actual environment.

Critical Velocities of Single-layer and Two-layer Composite Tubes of Transversely Isotropic Materials Based on a Potential Function Method in 3-D Elasticity

Abstract Critical velocities of a single-layer tube of a transversely isotropic material and a two-layer composite tube consisting of two perfectly-bonded cylindrical layers of dissimilar transversely isotropic materials are analytically determined using the potential function method of Elliott in three-dimensional (3-D) elasticity. The displacement and stress components in each transversely isotropic layer of the tube subjected to a uniform internal pressure moving at a constant velocity are derived in integral forms by applying the Fourier transform method. The solution includes those for a tube composed of two dissimilar cubic or isotropic materials as special cases. In addition, it is shown that the model for the two-layer composite tube can be reduced to that for the single-layer tube. Closed-form expressions for four critical velocities are derived for the single-layer tube. The lowest critical velocity is obtained from plotting the velocity curve and finding the inflection point for both the single-layer and two-layer composite tubes. To illustrate the newly developed models, two cases are studied as examples – one for a single-layer isotropic steel tube and the other for a two-layer composite tube consisting of an isotropic steel inner layer and a transversely isotropic glass-epoxy outer layer. The numerical values of the lowest critical velocity predicted by the new 3-D elasticity-based models are obtained and compared with those given by existing models based on thin- and thick-shell theories.

Axial Tensile Ultimate Strength of an Unbonded Flexible Riser Based on a Numerical Method.

Unbonded flexible risers consist of several helical and cylindrical layers, which can undergo large bending deformation and can be installed to different configurations to adapt to harsh marine environments, and is a key equipment in transporting oil and gas resources from Ultra Deep Waters (UDWs) to offshore platforms. The helical interlayer of an unbonded flexible riser makes the structural behavior difficult to predict. In this paper, the axial tensile behavior and the axial tensile ultimate strength of an unbonded flexible riser are studied based on a typical 2.5-inch eight-layer unbonded flexible riser model, and verified through a theoretical method considering the contact between adjacent layers. First, the balance equation of separate layers is deduced by a functional principle, and then the overall theoretical model of an unbonded flexible riser is established considering the geometric relationship between adjacent layers. Then, the numerical model considering the detailed geometric properties of an unbonded flexible riser is established to simulate the axial tensile behavior. Finally, after being verified through the experimental results, the axial tensile stiffness and axial tensile strength of an unboned flexible riser considering the elasticity of the tensile armor layer are studied using the proposed two methods. Additionally, the effect of frictional coefficients is conducted. The numerical and theoretical results show good agreement with the test results, and the friction between adjacent layers would increase the axial tensile stiffness of an unbonded flexible riser.

3D-printed bioinspired spicules: Strengthening and toughening via stereolithography

Recently, the replication of biological microstructures has garnered significant attention due to their superior flexural strength and toughness, coupled with lightweight structures. Among the most intriguing biological microstructures renowned for their flexural strength are those found in the Euplectella Aspergillum (EA) marine sponges. The remarkable strength of this sponge is attributed to its complex microstructure, which consists of concentric cylindrical layers known as spicules with organic interlayers. These features effectively impede large crack propagation, imparting extraordinary mechanical properties. However, there have been limited studies aimed at mimicking the spicule microstructure. In this study, structures inspired by spicules were designed and fabricated using the stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing technique. The mechanical properties of concentric cylindrical structures (CCSs) inspired by the spicule microstructure were evaluated, considering factors such as the wall thickness of the cylinders, the number of layers, and core diameter, all of which significantly affect the mechanical response. These results were compared with those obtained from solid rods used as solid samples. The findings indicated that CCSs with five layers or fewer exhibited a flexural strength close to or higher than that of solid rods. Particularly, samples with 4 and 5 cylindrical layers displayed architecture similar to natural spicules. Moreover, in all CCSs, the absorbed energy was at least 3–4 times higher than solid rods. Conversely, CCSs with a cylinder wall thickness of 0.65 mm exhibited a more brittle behavior under the 3-point bending test than those with 0.35 mm and 0.5 mm wall thicknesses. CCSs demonstrated greater resistance to failure, displaying different crack propagation patterns and shear stress distributions under the bending test compared to solid rods. These results underscore that replicating the structure of spicules and producing structures with concentric cylindrical layers can transform a brittle structure into a more flexible one, particularly in load-bearing applications.

Quantum dynamics within curved thin layers with deviation

Abstract Combining the deviation between thin layers’ adjacent surfaces with the confining potential method applied to the quantum curved systems, we derive the effective Schrödinger equation describing the particle constrained within a curved layer, accompanied by a general geometric potential V gq composed of a compression-corrected geometric potential V gq * and a novel potential V gq * * brought by the deviation. Applying this analysis to the cylindrical layer emerges two types of deviation-induced geometric potential, resulting from the the cases of slant deviation and tangent deviation, respectively, which strongly renormalizes the purely geometric potential and contribute to the energy spectrum based on a very substantial deepening of bound states they offer.

FUNCTIONAL ASSESSMENT OF WAVE PROPAGATION IN IMPERFECT CYLINDER MATERIALS

This work provides a theoretical framework to investigate the shear wave propagation properties within an Electrostrictive cylindrical layered structure. The structure is made up of a concentric, Functionally Assessed Electrostrictive Material (FAEM) cylindrical layer of limited width and an inadequately bonded Electrostrictive material cylinder. The FAEM layer has a constant functional gradient in the radial direction, and flaws at the interface are taken seriously, mirroring actual circumstances involving structural and electrical degradation. The fundamental electromechanical connected Bessel's equations are used to simplify field differential equations by mathematical modifications. Relationships for shear wave propagation under electrically short and open circumstances are established analytically. The acquired findings are verified against predefined standards and a particular issue instance. The impact of variables on the phase velocity of shear waves, including functional range and imperfection parameters, is shown through numerical simulations and graphical displays. The research also establishes boundaries for electrically short and open circumstances, taking into account the shear defect that exists between the inner and outer cylindrical layers.

Effect of fluidized bed shapes on gas-solid fluidization characters and flow regime transition

The technology of gas-solid dense-phase fluidized bed separation is applied in the separation of fine particles in minerals due to its stable and reliable characteristics. The experiment collected time-domain distribution signals of pressure drop from fluidized beds with different shapes, systematically analyzed the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of bed density, and studied the effects of bed shape and fluidization number N on the fluidization and flow transition of the bed layer. The results indicate significant differences in Umf among fluidized beds with different shapes, and the tapered bed requires the highest energy for fluidization. When N=1.3, the cylindrical bed layer is the most stable, maintaining an average density of 1.8 g/cm3, with a density fluctuation variance of 0.02 g/cm3. Additionally, when N<1.0, almost no bubbles inside the bed layer. With an increase in gas velocity, the time-domain distribution of pressure drop signals shows different degrees of fluctuation. When N=1.1, Conspicuous non-uniform particle flow is evident in the tapered bed, with a bubble main frequency of 8 Hz, an amplitude of 27.1, and the highest pressure drop energy signal, indicating that the tapered bed enters the bubbling state prematurely. Finally, fine coal separation experiments were conducted, and the results showed that the minimum E value for the cylindrical bed is 0.08 g/cm3, while the maximum E value for the tapered bed is 0.17 g/cm3.

Design, construction, and performance of the GEM based radial time projection chamber for the BONuS12 experiment with CLAS12

A new radial time projection chamber based on Gas Electron Multiplier amplification layers was developed for the BONuS12 experiment in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. This device represents a significant evolutionary development over similar devices constructed for previous experiments, including cylindrical amplification layers constructed from single continuous GEM foils with less than 1% dead area. Particular attention had been paid to producing excellent geometric uniformity of all electrodes, including the very thin metalized polyester film of the cylindrical cathode. This manuscript describes the design, construction, and performance of this new detector.

Analytical study on transverse behaviour of Love-type waves in a corrugated cylindrical composite structure: A perturbation theory

The current study focuses on the analysis of propagation characteristics of Love-type waves in a corrugated composite cylindrical structure, with corrugation at the lateral surface. The corrugated cylindrical structure is comprised of two regions of functional gradient fiber-reinforced material media with distinct radii. The amplitude of corrugation at the outermost lateral surface is assumed to be small. The functional gradients in outer and inner cylindrical layers are generated because of radial variation of the elastic parameters and density. An analytical treatment featuring a perturbation method and Debye Asymptotic Expansion is employed to attain the dispersion relation. The obtained dispersion relation is validated with some established standard and classical results through particular cases. The substantial effects of reinforcement, functional gradients, and corrugation parameters on both phase and group velocities of the Love-type wave have been analyzed extensively with the aid of graphical illustrations, accomplished by numerical computations.
