In the present study, a pore-scale multicomponent lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is employed for the investigation of the immiscible-phase fluid displacement in a homogeneous porous medium. The viscous fingering and the stable displacement regimes of the invading fluid in the medium are quantified which is beneficial for predicting flow patterns in pore-scale structures, where an experimental study is extremely difficult. Herein, the Shan-Chen (S-C) model is incorporated with an appropriate collision model for computing the interparticle interaction between the immiscible fluids and the interfacial dynamics. Firstly, the computational technique is validated by a comparison of the present results obtained for different benchmark flow problems with those reported in the literature. Then, the penetration of an invading fluid into the porous medium is studied at different flow conditions. The effect of the capillary number (Ca), dynamic viscosity ratio (M), and the surface wettability defined by the contact angle (θ) are investigated on the flow regimes and characteristics. The obtained results show that for M<1, the viscous fingering regime appears by driving the invading fluid through the pore structures due to the viscous force and capillary force. However, by increasing the dynamic viscosity ratio and the capillary number, the invading fluid penetrates even in smaller pores and the stable displacement regime occurs. By the increment of the capillary number, the pressure difference between the two sides of the porous medium increases, so that the pressure drop Δp along with the domain at θ=40∘ is more than that of computed for θ=80∘. The present study shows that the value of wetting fluid saturation Sw at θ=40∘ is larger than its value computed with θ=80∘ that is due to the more tendency of the hydrophilic medium to absorb the wetting fluid at θ=40∘. Also, it is found that the magnitude of Sw computed for both the contact angles is decreased by the increment of the viscosity ratio from Log(M)=−1 to 1. The present study demonstrates that the S-C LBM is an efficient and accurate computational method to quantitatively estimate the flow characteristics and interfacial dynamics through the porous medium.

Impact problem associated with water entry of a wedge has important applications in various aspects of naval architecture and ocean engineering. In the present study, the 2DOF (2 Degrees of Freedom) wedge impact problem into the water with various wedge deadrise angles and impact velocities is investigated using Weakly Compressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (WCSPH) method. Artificial viscosity and density correction are used to create stability and also to prevent the penetration of fluid particles into the solid boundary. Solving the impact problem is very time-consuming, therefore extracting new mathematical relations can be very useful to calculate some important and applicable parameters in a certain range of wedge angles and impact velocities. In the present research, some new dimensionless applicable relations using the Buckingham π theorem are extracted to investigate important parameters such as acceleration and slamming force in general cases of a wedge impact problem. Then, these mathematical relations are validated by the results obtained from the simulations.

In this paper, two different nickel-based superalloys, namely Inconel 718 and Nimonic 80A were joined using electron beam welding techniques with three different welding parameters. A finite element analysis (FEA) using Abaqus software was carried out to calculate the residual stresses due to welding. Both transverse and longitudinal residual stresses were determined. Also, an X-ray residual stress measurement system, μ-X360 Ver. 2.5.6.2 was used for measuring transverse residual stress along and across the weld centerline. The transverse residual stress found by FEA and that measured experimentally was nearly the same thus validating the FEA. Also, the peak values of longitudinal residual stress found using the FEA were close to the yield strengths of the base metals as found elsewhere.

Purpose: To investigate the probabilistic low-velocity impact of functionally graded (FG) plate using the MARS model, considering uncertain system parameters. Design/methodology/application: The distribution of various material properties throughout FG plate thickness is calculated using power law. For finite element (FE) formulation, isoparametric elements with eight nodes are considered, each component has five degrees of freedom. The combined effect of variability in material properties such as elastic modulus, modulus of rigidity, Poisson’s ratio, and mass density are considered. The surrogate model is validated with the FE model represented by the scatter plot and the probability density function (PDF) plot based on Monte Carlo simulation (MCS). Findings: The outcome of the degree of stochasticity, impact angle, impactor’s velocity, impactor’s mass density, and point of impact on the maximum value of contact force (CFmax ), plate deformation (PDmax), and impactor deformation (IDmax ) are determined. A convergence study is also performed to determine the optimal number of the constructed MARS model’s sample size. Originality/value: The results illustrate the significant effects of uncertain input parameters on FGM plates’ low-velocity impact responses by employing a surrogate-based MARS model.

A parameter-uniform finite difference scheme is constructed and analyzed for solving singularly perturbed parabolic problems with two parameters. The solution involves boundary layers at both the left and right ends of the solution domain. A numerical algorithm is formulated based on uniform mesh finite difference approximation for time variable and appropriate piecewise uniform mesh for the spatial variable. Parameter-uniform error bounds are established for both theoretical and experimental results and observed that the scheme is second-order convergent. Furthermore, the present method produces a more accurate solution than some methods existing in the literature.

This study uses Ansys 16 commercial package to investigate an accurate numerical model that can trace the flame shape from inverse diffusion combustion of LPG with a focus on the effect of air pulsation on the combustion characteristics. The simulation is based on solving the energy, mass and momentum equations. The large eddy simulation turbulence model and the non-premixed combustion model are used to simulate the pulsating combustion reaction flows in a cylindrical chamber with an air frequency of 10,20,50,100 and 200 rad/sec. The numerical results are in great agreement with the experimental results in the flame shape and the temperature distribution along the combustion chamber in both pulsating and non-pulsating combustion. Diffusion combustion responds positively to pulsating combustion and increases mixing in the reaction zone. Increasing the air frequency increases the temperature fluctuations, the peak turbulent kinetic energy and maximum velocity magnitude, respectively, by 27.3%, 300%, and 200%. Increasing the Strouhal number to 0.23 shortens the flame by 40% and reduces nitric oxide and carbon monoxide by 12% and 40%, respectively, including an environmentally friendly combustion product. The maximum average temperature dropped from 1800 K to 1582 K with a very homogeneous temperature distribution along the combustion chamber which is very important for furnaces.

In order to explore the temporal and spatial evolution of the mechanical characteristics of hydraulic tunnels with high ground temperature during construction, a numerical simulation study was performed on the construction process of the tunnel using finite element calculation software, and the results were compared with the field monitoring results. The results showed that the displacements of the top arch and waist arch of the tunnel increased with time, and the top arch of the tunnel entrance was greatly affected by the excavation. The plastic zone was larger in the top arch and the bottom arch of surrounding rock, and smaller in the waist arch. The plastic strain of the top arch and bottom arch of surrounding rock was smaller, while the plastic strain of the waist arch was larger. The parallel excavation and lining construction have less impact on the surrounding rock.

Continuum Damage Mechanics is successfully employed to describe the behaviour of metallic materials up to the onset of fracture. Nevertheless, on its own, it is not able to accurately trace discrete crack paths. In this contribution, Continuous Damage Mechanics is combined with the XFEM and a Cohesive Law to allow the full simulation of a ductile fracture process. In particular, the Cohesive Law assures an energetically consistent transition from damage to crack for critical damage values lower than one. Moreover, a novel interpretation is given to the parameters of the cohesive law. A fitting method derived directly from the damage model is proposed for these parameters, avoiding additional experimental characterization.

In order to study the degradation law and seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame structure with the extension of service time under normal service environment, the multi-scale modeling of corroded reinforced concrete frame is carried out by using the general finite element analysis software ABAQUS. The correctness of the multi-scale modeling method is verified by the experimental data of corroded reinforced concrete members and single frame. The pushover analysis and elastic-plastic time history analysis of a four story reinforced concrete frame structure are carried out by using a multi-scale model. Then the seismic response and damage of RC frame structures with different service time are compared. The experimental results show that the established seismic performance model of reinforced concrete frame structure is more practical in practical application and can meet the research requirements.

A linearised finite element numerical scheme for the vibration of inextensible beams is developed. The proposed scheme is based on the methodology introduced by S. Bartels [15] and satisfies a linearised form of the inextensibility constraint. The time m arching procedure is based on repeated use of the theta-parameter integration quadrature. Three parameters are introduced in total and appropriately selected such that the energy conservation features are improved compared to the Bartels algorithm while the inextensibility constraint is satisfied as accurately as possible. Cubic Hermite polynomials are employed for the spatial discretisation. The Bartels algorithm is retrieved as a special case. Several numerical experiments are presented demonstrating the theoretically predicted enhanced inextensibility mimicking and optimum values of the method parameters are identified.
