It is a mixture of the metallic powder in high concentration and some plastic binder. The advance in simulation of the mould ?lling with such high viscous feedstock is featured by the development of a fully explicit vectorial algorithm. On the basis of previous explicit software realized by the authors, the new algorithm avoids the global solution for pressure ?elds and the use of MINI elements to improve its e?ciency. Except for the operations at element level, neither global solution nor the construction of global matrix is required in simulation. A special strategy is used to regulate the incompressibility condition in ?lled domain at each time step. In case of the MIM problems, this method provides a fast way to simulate the ?lling processes. The computational cost is about linearly proportional to the degree of freedom number. Moreover, this vectorial algorithm can be easily parallelized for high performance computation with multi-clusters. The comparison of numerical results with previous simulations on 3D cases proves the validity and e?ciency of new algorithm.展开更多

The objective is to demonstrate the capability of explicit convection at currently affordable grid-resolution and compare it with parameterized realizations. Under moderate forcing, 3-kin grid-resolution explicit simulations represent rainfall coherence remarkably well. The observed daily convective generation near the Continental Divide and the subsequent organization and propagation are reproduced qualitatively. The propagation speed, zonal extent and duration of the rainfall streaks compare favorably with their observed counterparts, although the streak frequency is underestimated. The simulations at -10-km grid-resolution applying conventional convective parameterization schemes also replicate reasonably well the diurnal convective regeneration in moderate forcing. The performance of the 3-km grid-resolution model demonstrates the potential of -1-km-resolution explicit cloud-resolving models for the prediction of warm season precipitation for moderately forced environments. In weak forcing conditions, however, predictions of precipitation coherence and diurnal variability are much poorer. This suggests that an even finer resolution explicit model is required to adequately treat convective initiation and upscale organization typical of the warm season over the continental U.S.展开更多

Despite their established importance, the mechanism of chaperonin-assisted protein folding remains unknown. In the present article, all-atom explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed for the first time on rhodanese folding in a series of cavity-size and cavity-charge chaperonin mutants. A compromise between stability and flexibility of chaperonin structure during the substrate folding has been observed and the key factors affecting this dynamic process are discussed.展开更多

In the process of building this bearing FEM, the following parameters have been well considered, such as boundary conditions, friction, contaction, loads and so on. Through simulation, the corresponding equivalent stress nephograms and acceleration of nodes on the inner ring raceway has been obtained. According to features of acceleration which occurs neighbor to fault pit, bearing's fault diagnosis has been realized. This paper provides a new way in monitoring bearing status and diagnosing fault of bearing.展开更多

These techniques include static analysis on circuit structure in preprocessing stage and dynamic calculations in fault simulation stage. With these techniques,the area for stem fault simulation and number of the stems requiring explicit fault simulation are greatly reduced, so that the entire fault simulation time is substantially decreased. Experimental results given in this paper show that the fault simulation algorithm using these techniques is of very high efficiency for both small and large numbers of test patterns. Especially with the increase of circuit gates, its effectivenbss improves obyiously.展开更多
