Purpose

This paper aims to construct positivity-preserving finite volume schemes for the three-dimensional convection–diffusion equation that are applicable to arbitrary polyhedral grids.

Design/methodology/approach

The cell vertices are used to define the auxiliary unknowns, and the primary unknowns are defined at cell centers. The diffusion flux is discretized by the classical nonlinear two-point flux approximation. To ensure the fully discrete scheme has positivity-preserving property, an improved discretization method for the convection flux was presented. Besides, a new positivity-preserving vertex interpolation method is derived from the linear reconstruction in the discretization of convection flux. Moreover, the Picard iteration method may have slow convergence in solving the nonlinear system. Thus, the Anderson acceleration of Picard iteration method is used to solve the nonlinear system. A condition number monitor of matrix is employed in the Anderson acceleration method to achieve better robustness.

Findings

The new scheme is applicable to arbitrary polyhedral grids and has a second-order accuracy. The results of numerical experiments also confirm the positivity-preserving of the discretization scheme.

本文旨在构建适用于任意多面体网格的三维对流扩散方程的保正有限体积方案。扩散通量采用经典的非线性两点通量近似法离散化。为确保完全离散方案具有正保全特性,提出了一种改进的对流通量离散方法。此外,还从对流通量离散化的线性重构中推导出了一种新的保正顶点插值方法。此外,Picard 迭代法在求解非线性系统时可能收敛较慢。因此,采用了 Picard 迭代法的 Anderson 加速法来求解非线性系统。新方案适用于任意多面体网格,并具有二阶精度。数值实验结果也证实了离散化方案的保正性。本文针对三维对流扩散方程提出了一种新的保正有限体积方案。2.构建了新的对流通量离散化方案。3.给出了一种新的二阶插值算法,以消除通量表达式中的辅助未知量。4.采用改进的安德森加速法加速 Picard 迭代的收敛。5.该方案能以二阶精度求解扭曲网格上的对流扩散方程。

目的 本研究主要针对高速燃油泵叶轮顶部涡流堆积问题进行CFD数值模拟分析,主要利用LCS和熵产理论对叶轮顶部涡流进行可视化分析,并对叶轮顶部涡流造成的能量损失进行定量分析。将这两种方法结合起来,可以很好地相互验证叶轮顶部涡旋的堆积问题和涡旋造成的能量损失位置与涡旋位置是一致的。这种方法可以很好地揭示叶轮顶部的涡流堆积问题,为提高高速燃油泵的性能提供了新颖的指导思路。设计/方法/途径基于 CFD 数值模拟和分析,本研究主要采用 LCS 和熵产理论对叶轮顶部涡流进行可视化分析。研究结果(1) 对高速燃油泵进行了 CFD 数值模拟分析,并通过试验验证了数值模拟结果。以进出口压差?P 作为验证指标,误差分析表明数值模拟结果与试验结果的误差在 10%以内,符合我们的要求。因此,我们借助 CFD 数值模拟进行下一步分析。通过全工况模拟分析,其进出口压差?P 和效率?进行了评估。结果发现,其压差随流量的增加而减小,效率在 Qv = 9.87 L/s 时达到最大,最高效率为 78.32%。(2) 我们使用 LCS 分析了高速燃油泵叶轮叶片顶部的涡流。流体动力学中用于描述 LCS 的指标之一是 FTLE。高 FTLE 区域代表流体流动中粒子轨迹拉伸速度最高、最快的区域。我们分别在 25% 平面、50% 平面和 75% 平面上对叶轮不同高度表面上的 FTLE 场进行了横截面分析。转子旋转四分之一圈被分析为一个周期,分为 8 个力矩。结果发现,在 25% 平面上,叶片顶部的涡流并不明显,但护罩表面的 FTLE 值很高。在 50% 平面上,叶顶涡流相对明显,涡流数量为三个。随着转子的旋转运动,涡流模式保持稳定。在 75% 平面上,叶顶涡更加明显,涡旋数量增加到约 5 个,涡旋形态相对稳定。FTLE 脊线将涡流剖面形象化。这对流体动力学分析有很好的指导作用。(3) 同时,我们利用熵产理论对能量损失进行定量分析,并定义了熵产率 Ep。通过对叶轮护罩表面和叶片压力面吸入面在八个时刻的产熵分析,我们发现能量损失大的区域主要集中在叶片的前缘和后缘以及靠近叶片前缘的护罩表面,产熵率值高达 106 W/m3/K。叶片前缘和后缘的高能量损失区域呈弯曲弧形,能量损失随着远离护罩表面和靠近轮毂表面而减少。叶片前缘和后缘的高能量损失区域呈弧形,能量损失随着远离护罩表面和靠近轮毂表面而减少。叶片压力表面的能量损失相对较小,约为 5 × 105 W/m3/K,主要集中在靠近护罩表面的叶片前缘和靠近轮毂表面的叶片后缘。本研究主要针对高速燃油泵叶轮顶部的涡流堆积问题进行 CFD 数值模拟和分析,主要利用 LCS 和熵产理论对叶轮顶部的涡流进行可视化分析,并对叶轮顶部涡流造成的能量损失进行定量分析。通过两种方法的结合,很好地相互验证了叶轮顶部涡流的堆积问题和涡流造成的能量损失位置与涡流位置是一致的。

Purpose

With the development of fracturing technology, the research of multi-well hydrofracturing becomes the key issue. Frac-hits in multi-well hydrofracturing has an important effect on fracture propagation and final production of fractured well; in the process of hydrofracturing, there are many implement parameters that can affect frac-hits, and previous studies in this area have not systematically targeted the influence of a single parameter on multi-well hydrofracturing. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the occurrence rule and influence of frac-hits for optimizing the design of fracturing wells.

Design/methodology/approach

Based on the proposed numerical models, the effects of different fracturing implement parameters (perforation cluster spacing, well spacing and injection rate) on frac-hits are compared in numerical cases. Through the analysis of fracture network, stress field and microseismic, the effects of different fracturing implement parameters on frac-hits and connections are compared.

Findings

The simulation results show that the effect of perforation cluster spacing and well spacing on frac-hits is greater than that of injection rate. Smaller well spacing makes it easier for fractures between adjacent wells to interact with each other, which increases the risk of frac-hits and reduces the risk of fracture connections. Smaller perforation cluster spacing results in larger individual fracture lengths and greater deflection angles, which makes the possibility of frac-hits and connections greater. The lower the injection rate, the lower the probability of frac-hits.

Originality/value

In this study, the influence of different fracturing implement parameters on frac-hits and connections in multi-well hydrofracturing is studied, and the mechanism of frac-hits and connections is analyzed through fracture network, stress field and microseismic analysis. Different simulation results are compared to optimize fracturing well parameter design and provide reference for engineering application.

目的随着压裂技术的发展,多井水力压裂的研究成为关键问题。多井水力压裂中的压裂裂缝对压裂井的裂缝扩展和最终产量有着重要影响;在水力压裂过程中,影响压裂裂缝的实施参数有很多,以往这方面的研究没有系统地针对单一参数对多井水力压裂的影响进行研究。因此,研究压裂裂缝的发生规律和影响因素,对于优化压裂井的设计具有重要意义。设计/方法/途径基于提出的数值模型,在数值案例中比较了不同压裂实施参数(射孔群间距、井间距和注入率)对压裂裂缝的影响。模拟结果表明,射孔群间距和井距对压裂命中率的影响大于注入率对压裂命中率的影响。较小的井距使相邻油井之间的裂缝更容易相互影响,从而增加了压裂命中的风险,降低了裂缝连接的风险。射孔群间距越小,单个裂缝长度越长,偏转角度越大,压裂命中和连接的可能性就越大。本文研究了多井水力压裂中不同压裂实施参数对压裂命中和连接的影响,并通过压裂网络、应力场和微震分析,分析了压裂命中和连接的机理。对比不同的模拟结果,优化压裂井参数设计,为工程应用提供参考。

目的火力冲突通常会降低火力计划的可执行性,从而带来很高的生存风险。以往的研究很少关注在武器目标分配过程中避免火力冲突。本研究提出了一种名为 "火力无冲突 WTA(FCFWTA)"的新约束优化模型,并设计了人工鱼群算法(AFSA)的生存进化(SE)策略来解决复杂的约束 WTA 问题。设计/方法/途径构建了一个名为 "火力无冲突 WTA(FCFWTA)"的新约束优化模型。FCFWTA 统一了不同种类武器的火力决策变量,并以发射时间点为线索进行火力冲突检查。FCFWTA 的目标函数是最小威胁值休息率(RRTV)、最大命中效率(HE)和最小最新拦截时间百分比(PLT)的加权和。由于之前的算法在优化过程中无法检查和解决中间结果,因此设计了一种名为 "生存进化 "的调整策略。研究结果所提出的方法在两个方面具有显著优势。首先,它能在没有火力冲突的情况下有效提高 WTA 的优化结果。图 6 证明了这一点。图 6 证实,如果不采用所提出的方法,就很有可能产生无效结果。在实施火力冲突检查和解决后,目标函数值会大幅下降。其次,该方法擅长在多个目标之间公平分配火力,同时还能提高总体拦截概率,而不受不同场景所带来的不同复杂性的影响。这种保持平衡和效率的能力对于解决国防相关问题至关重要。研究局限/意义具体而言,SE 是针对时间和空间限制下的 MWMT 问题量身定制的。这种方法与传统的 MWMT 研究大相径庭,后者通常只关注弹药数量或射击范围。因此,首要目标是验证这种方法的有效性。测试结果表明,SE 在不同算法中的表现并不一致;虽然它显著提高了 PSO 和 AFSA 的效率,但在应用于 GA 时,其影响却大大减弱。这可能是由于交叉和变异具有固有的随机性,会增加火力冲突的可能性,再加上 SE 对染色体的重组。

Purpose

Parameter estimation in complex engineering structures typically necessitates repeated calculations using simulation models, leading to significant computational costs. This paper aims to introduce an adaptive multi-output Gaussian process (MOGP) surrogate model for parameter estimation in time-consuming models.

Design/methodology/approach

The MOGP surrogate model is established to replace the computationally expensive finite element method (FEM) analysis during the estimation process. We propose a novel adaptive sampling method for MOGP inspired by the traditional expected improvement (EI) method, aiming to reduce the number of required sample points for building the surrogate model. Two mathematical examples and an application in the back analysis of a concrete arch dam are tested to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Findings

The numerical results show that the proposed method requires a relatively small number of sample points to achieve accurate estimates. The proposed adaptive sampling method combined with the MOGP surrogate model shows an obvious advantage in parameter estimation problems involving expensive-to-evaluate models, particularly those with high-dimensional output.

Originality/value

A novel adaptive sampling method for establishing the MOGP surrogate model is proposed to accelerate the procedure of solving large-scale parameter estimation problems. This modified adaptive sampling method, based on the traditional EI method, is better suited for multi-output problems, making it highly valuable for numerous practical engineering applications.

目的复杂工程结构中的参数估计通常需要使用仿真模型进行重复计算,从而导致大量计算成本。本文旨在介绍一种自适应多输出高斯过程(MOGP)代理模型,用于耗时模型的参数估计。设计/方法/途径建立 MOGP 代理模型是为了在估算过程中取代计算成本高昂的有限元法(FEM)分析。受传统预期改进(EI)方法的启发,我们提出了一种新颖的 MOGP 自适应采样方法,旨在减少建立代用模型所需的采样点数量。通过两个数学实例和一个混凝土拱坝的回溯分析应用测试,证明了所提方法的有效性。提出的自适应采样方法与 MOGP 代理模型相结合,在涉及评估成本高昂的模型的参数估计问题中,尤其是那些具有高维输出的参数估计问题中,显示出明显的优势。这种基于传统 EI 方法的改进型自适应采样方法更适合多输出问题,因此在众多实际工程应用中具有很高的价值。

目的 在本研究中,介绍了一种最新的损伤塑性模型在 Koyna 重力坝非线性动态分析中的应用。这是一个基于应力分解的单面各向同性损伤塑性混凝土模型,是在之前的研究中提出的。首先回顾了该模型的理论方面,并举例说明了几个初步验证实例。随后,介绍了用于混凝土重力坝非线性动态分析的 HHT-α(即 Hilber-Hughes-Taylor)算法。为此,本研究考虑了三种情况。情况 A 基于线性模型,主要用于比较。另外两种情况(B 和 C)与非线性(即损伤塑性)模型相对应。这两种情况的基本数据相似。但是,采用的阻尼算法不同,分别对应恒定阻尼算法和可变阻尼算法。这意味着在分析过程中,阻尼矩阵要么保持不变,要么在不同时间增量的所有迭代中进行更新。研究结果初步比较了三种情况下坝顶水平位移的时间历程:线性情况 A 以及两种非线性情况 B 和 C。据观察,非线性情况的响应在约 4.3 秒后开始偏离相应的线性情况。然而,情况 C(即可变阻尼)的变化量远大于情况 B(即恒定阻尼)。这首先表现在响应峰值上。我们还注意到,与线性情况 A 相比,情况 B 的响应周期略有变化,而情况 C 的变化则很大。对于恒定阻尼情况 B,可以发现拉伸破坏发生在 D/S 面的扭结处,U/S 面的高度稍低。此外,它还具有分散性。然而,在可变阻尼情况 C 中,人们注意到拉伸损伤更加局部化,其作用类似于离散裂缝。当然,这两种情况在大坝跟部也都出现了拉伸破坏。在压缩破坏方面,两种非线性情况下的破坏值都很低,符合预期。研究了两种不同阻尼算法下大坝的非线性响应。此外,本研究的后半部分还研究了可变特征长度的影响。

Purpose

The soft stabilized slab and pile-supported (SSPS) embankment is an improvement technique to increase the efficiency of resources in road construction. To capture the effects of stabilized slabs on the stress transfer mechanism, the differential settlements and the lateral displacement of the embankment completely. A theoretical model of SSPS is proposed by considering the effect of soil arching and the interaction between the embankment fill, stabilized soil, pile, foundation soil and bearing stratum.

Design/methodology/approach

In the theoretical model, the stress and strain coordination relationship of the system was analyzed in view of the minimum potential energy theory and equal settlement plane theory. Subsequently, the theoretical method was applied to field tests for comparison. Finally, the influence of the elastic modulus and the thickness of the stabilized slab on the stress concentration ratio and foundation settlement were examined.

Findings

In addition to the experimental findings, the method has been revealed to be reasonable and feasible, considering its ability to effectively exploit the stabilized slab effect and improve the bearing capacity of soil and piles. An economical and reasonable arrangement scheme for the thickness and strength of stabilized slabs was obtained. The results reveal that the optimum elastic modulus was chosen as 28 MPa–60 MPa, and the optimum thickness of the stabilized slab was selected as 1.5 m–2.1 m using the parameters of field tests, which can provide guidance to engineering design.

Originality/value

An optimization calculation method is established to analyze the load transfer mechanics of the SSPS embankment based on a double-equal settlement plane. The model’s rationality was analyzed by comparing the settlement and stress concentration ratios in the field tests. Subsequently, the influence of the elastic modulus and the thickness of the stabilized slab on the stress concentration ratio and settlement were examined. An economical and reasonable arrangement scheme for the thickness and elastic modulus of stabilized slabs was obtained, which can provide a novel approach for engineering design.

Purpose

Simulation-based digital twins represent an effort to provide high-accuracy real-time insights into operational physical processes. However, the computation time of many multi-physical simulation models is far from real-time. It might even exceed sensible time frames to produce sufficient data for training data-driven reduced-order models. This study presents TwinLab, a framework for data-efficient, yet accurate training of neural-ODE type reduced-order models with only two data sets.

Design/methodology/approach

Correlations between test errors of reduced-order models and distinct features of corresponding training data are investigated. Having found the single best data sets for training, a second data set is sought with the help of similarity and error measures to enrich the training process effectively.

Findings

Adding a suitable second training data set in the training process reduces the test error by up to 49% compared to the best base reduced-order model trained only with one data set. Such a second training data set should at least yield a good reduced-order model on its own and exhibit higher levels of dissimilarity to the base training data set regarding the respective excitation signal. Moreover, the base reduced-order model should have elevated test errors on the second data set. The relative error of the time series ranges from 0.18% to 0.49%. Prediction speed-ups of up to a factor of 36,000 are observed.

Originality/value

The proposed computational framework facilitates the automated, data-efficient extraction of non-intrusive reduced-order models for digital twins from existing simulation models, independent of the simulation software.

目的 以仿真为基础的数字孪生代表着一种努力,为操作物理过程提供高精度的实时洞察。然而,许多多物理仿真模型的计算时间远非实时。它甚至可能超过合理的时间范围,无法产生足够的数据来训练数据驱动的低阶模型。本研究提出了 TwinLab,这是一个仅用两组数据就能高效、准确地训练神经-ODE 类型降阶模型的框架。研究结果在训练过程中添加合适的第二组训练数据,与仅用一组数据训练的最佳基础降阶模型相比,测试误差最多可减少 49%。这样的第二组训练数据至少应能产生一个良好的降阶模型,并在各自的激励信号方面与基础训练数据集表现出更高的相似度。此外,基础降阶模型在第二组数据上的测试误差也应增大。时间序列的相对误差在 0.18% 到 0.49% 之间。原创性/价值所提出的计算框架有助于从现有的仿真模型中自动、高效地提取数字双胞胎的非侵入式降阶模型,且不受仿真软件的影响。

Purpose

This study examines two distinct bearing stiffness calculation methods, both of which are based on the displacement-load function. Previous research typically incorporated one type of bearing stiffness into their system mechanics or vibration analysis. However, these two methods of calculating stiffness lead to different vibration models. This implies that the choice for vibration investigation is not merely about selecting one of the two types of stiffness, but also about how to appropriately implement that chosen stiffness within a model. The primary objective of this work is to compare these two methods of bearing calculation and to discuss the suitable applications of each method in both static and dynamic analyses.

Design/methodology/approach

This study compares two distinct methods for calculating bearing stiffness. It explores the relationships between varying bearing stiffnesses, their internal structures, and contact features. Furthermore, it examines the impact of external loads on the static properties and dynamic characteristics of different bearing stiffnesses. Finally, based on the outcomes observed under various operating conditions, the study discusses the suitability of each method for static and dynamic analysis.

Findings

Mean stiffness is more suitable for calculating load transmissibility in a static state or capturing the delivery performance at instantaneous equilibrium positions in a dynamic state. Since the variation of the equilibrium positions is ignored, the alternating stiffness model is better suited for capturing the fluctuating properties of the vibration behaviors, especially under variable external load conditions.

Originality/value

We compare the two bearing calculation methods and discuss the appropriate applications of each method for static and dynamic analysis.

目的 本研究探讨了两种不同的轴承刚度计算方法,这两种方法都基于位移-载荷函数。以往的研究通常在系统力学或振动分析中采用一种轴承刚度计算方法。然而,这两种刚度计算方法会导致不同的振动模型。这意味着振动研究的选择不仅仅是选择两种刚度中的一种,还包括如何在模型中恰当地实现所选刚度。本研究的主要目的是比较这两种轴承计算方法,并讨论每种方法在静态和动态分析中的适当应用。研究探讨了不同轴承刚度、内部结构和接触特征之间的关系。此外,研究还探讨了外部载荷对不同轴承刚度的静态特性和动态特性的影响。最后,根据在各种运行条件下观察到的结果,研究讨论了每种方法在静态和动态分析中的适用性。研究结果平均刚度更适合计算静态下的负载传递率或捕捉动态下瞬时平衡位置的传递性能。由于平衡位置的变化被忽略,交变刚度模型更适合捕捉振动行为的波动特性,尤其是在外部载荷变化的条件下。

Purpose

A stochastic technique for solving interval non-linear problems using generalized Hukuhara (GH)-difference is proposed. The non-linear programming problem in interval form is transformed into an equivalent non-linear programming problem with real coefficients by associating a Gaussian random variable to the interval and the six-sigma rule. The conceptualized idea eliminates the decision maker’s instinctive selection of weight functions and provides an alternative to the order relation method, max-min criteria-based methods and bi-level approaches for representing intervals as real numbers. To demonstrate a coherent understanding, numerical examples have been used.

Design/methodology/approach

A stochastic approach has been used to develop a solution technique for solving interval nonlinear programming problems which arise in the modeling of scientific and engineering problems under uncertain environments.

Findings

The proposed idea eliminates the decision maker’s instinctive selection of weight functions and provides an alternative to the order relation method, max-min criteria-based methods and bi-level approaches for representing intervals as real numbers. This method provides specific results rather than in the interval form, which are more practical and implementable by the decision maker.

目的 提出了一种利用广义赫库哈拉(GH)差分解决区间非线性问题的随机技术。通过将高斯随机变量与区间和六西格玛规则联系起来,将区间形式的非线性程序设计问题转化为具有实系数的等价非线性程序设计问题。这种概念化的想法消除了决策者对权重函数的本能选择,并为将区间表示为实数的阶次关系法、基于最大最小准则的方法和双层方法提供了替代方案。研究结果所提出的想法消除了决策者对权重函数的本能选择,为将区间表示为实数的阶次关系法、基于最大最小准则的方法和双级方法提供了替代方案。这种方法提供了具体的结果,而不是区间形式的结果,这对决策者来说更实用,也更容易实现。原创性/价值兹证明,所提交的研究论文是本人原创性工作的成果。我已正式确认所有观点和摘录的来源。本文未曾在其他地方发表。

The non-linear programming problem in interval form is transformed into an equivalent non-linear programming problem with real coefficients by associating a Gaussian random variable to the interval and the six-sigma rule. The conceptualized idea eliminates the decision maker’s instinctive selection of weight functions and provides an alternative to the order relation method, max-min criteria-based methods and bi-level approaches for representing intervals as real numbers. To demonstrate a coherent understanding, numerical examples have been used.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Design/methodology/approach</h3>\u0000<p>A stochastic approach has been used to develop a solution technique for solving interval nonlinear programming problems which arise in the modeling of scientific and engineering problems under uncertain environments.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Findings</h3>\u0000<p>The proposed idea eliminates the decision maker’s instinctive selection of weight functions and provides an alternative to the order relation method, max-min criteria-based methods and bi-level approaches for representing intervals as real numbers.
