An incremental pressure fractional step method is adopted to handle the velocity-pressure coupling. The velocity and the pressure are collocated at the node of the vertex-centered control volume which is formed by join- ing the centroid of cells sharing the common vertex. For the temporal integration of the momentum equations, an im- plicit second-order scheme is utilized to enhance the com- putational stability and eliminate the time step limit due to the diffusion term. The momentum equations are discretized by the vertex-centered finite volume method (FVM) and the pressure Poisson equation is solved by the Galerkin finite el- ement method (FEM). The momentum interpolation is used to damp out the spurious pressure wiggles. The test case with analytical solutions demonstrates second-order accuracy of the current hybrid scheme in time and space for both veloc- ity and pressure. The classic test cases, the lid-driven cavity flow, the skew cavity flow and the backward-facing step flow, show that numerical results are in good agreement with the published benchmark solutions.展开更多

The collocated (i.e. non-staggered) arrangement of variables is used on the unstructured triangular grids, and a fractional step projection method is applied for the velocity-pressure coupling. The cell-centered finite volume method is employed to discretize the momentum equation and the vertex-based finite element for the pressure Poisson equation. The momentum interpolation method is used to suppress unphysical pressure wiggles. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the current hybrid scheme has second order accuracy in both space and time. Results on flows in the lid-driven cavity and between parallel walls for Newtonian and Power-Law models are also in good agreement with the published solutions.展开更多

This study proposes a multi-level grid method that can efficiently achieve phase unwrapping. First, the phase image of the package to be processed is divided into small grids, and each grid is unwrapped in multiple directions. Then, a level-by-level coarse-graining mesh method is employed to eliminate the new data “faults”generated from the previous level of grid processing. Finally, the true phase results are obtained by iterating to the coarsest grid through the unwrapping process. In order to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, a numerical simulation is first applied. Further, three typical flow fields are selected for experiments, and the results are compared with flood-fill and multi-grid methods for accuracy and efficiency. The proposed method obtains true phase information in just 0.5 s;moreover, it offers more flexibility in threshold selection compared to the flood-fill and region-growing methods.In summary, the proposed method can solve the phase unwrapping problems for moiré fringes, which could provide possibilities for the intelligent development of moiré deflection tomography.展开更多

During shifting of segments onto a barge, the slideway on the barge's deck must be adjusted to maintain the same level as the wharf and also the barge must be kept level by adjusting the water in the ballast tanks. When to open the adjusting valves is an important factor influencing the barge's trim during the water-adjustment process. Because these adjustments are complex a mathematical model was formulated,after analyzing the characteristics of the process of moving the segments onto the barges deck, and considering the effects of this movement's speed and variations in tidal levels during the move. Then the model was solved by the penalty function method, the grid method, and improved simulated annealing, respectively. The best optimization model and its corresponding solution were then determined.

It is a complex hydrodynamic problem with the interaction of many factors. With the purpose of directly predicting the behavior of ship maneuvering in waves, a CFD solver named naoe-FOAM-SJTU is developed by the Computational Marine Hydrodynamics Lab(CMHL) in Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The solver is based on open source platform OpenFOAM and has introduced dynamic overset grid technology to handle complex ship hull-propeller-rudder motion system. Maneuvering control module based on feedback control mechanism is also developed to accurately simulate corresponding motion behavior of free running ship maneuver. Inlet boundary wavemaker and relaxation zone technique is used to generate desired waves. Based on the developed modules, unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) computations are carried out for several validation cases of free running ship maneuver in waves including zigzag, turning circle, and course keeping maneuvers. The simulation results are compared with available benchmark data. Ship motions, trajectories, and other maneuvering parameters are consistent with available experimental data, which indicate that the present solver can be suitable and reliable in predicting the performance of ship maneuvering in waves. Flow visualizations, such as free surface elevation, wake flow, vortical structures, are presented to explain the hydrodynamic performance of ship maneuvering in waves. Large flow separation can be observed around propellers and rudders. It is concluded that RANS approach is not accurate enough for predicting ship maneuvering in waves with large flow separations and detached eddy simulation(DES) or large eddy simulation(LES) computations are required to improve the prediction accuracy.展开更多

The reliability~ based topology optimization (RBTO) is a powerful and promising methodology for finding the optimum topologies with the uncertainties being explicitly considered, typically manifested by the use of reliability constraints. Generally, a direct integration of reliability concept and topol- ogy optimization may lead to computational difficulties. In view of this fact, three methodologies have been presented in this study, including the double-loop approach (the performance measure approach, PMA) and the decoupled approaches (the so-called Hybrid method and the sequential optimization and reliability assessment, SORA). For reliability analysis, the stochastic response surface method (SRSM) was applied, combining with the design of experiments generated by the sparse grid method, which has been proven as an effective and special discretization technique. The methodologies were investigated with three numerical examples considering the uncertainties including material properties and external loads. The optimal topologies obtained using the de- terministic, RBTOs were compared with one another; and useful conclusions regarding validity, accuracy and efficiency were drawn.展开更多

Parametric ro...Parametric rolling is one of five types of the ship stability failure modes as proposed by IMO. The periodic change of the metacentric height is often considered as the internal cause of this phenomenon. Parametric rolling is a complex nonlinear hydrodynamic problem, often accompanied by large amplitude vertical motions of ships. In recent years,the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes(RANS) equation simulations for viscous flows have made great progress in the field of ship seakeeping. In this paper, the parametric rolling for the C11 containership in regular waves is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experiments, parametric rolling amplitudes at different drafts, forward speeds and wave steepnesses are analyzed. The differences in the steady amplitudes of parametric rolling are observed for two drafts. The effect of the incident wave steepness(or wave amplitude) is also studied, and this supports previous results obtained on limits of the stability for parametric rolling. In numerical simulations, the ship motions of parametric rolling are analyzed by use of the potential-flow and viscous-flow methods. In the viscousflow method, the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are solved using the overset grid method. The numerical accuracies of the two methods at different wave steepnesses are also discussed.展开更多

The integral spatial distribution trend of landscape elements is interested point in the landscape ecological research, especially in those of complex secondary forest regions with confusing mosaics of land cover. Trend surface analysis which used in community and population ecological researches was introduced to reveal the landscape pattern. A reasonable and reliable approach for application of trend surface analysis was provided in detail. As key steps of the approach, uniform grid point sampling method was developed. The efforts were also concentrated at an example of Guandishan forested landscape. Some basic rules of spatial distribution of landscape elements were exclaimed. These will be benefit to the further study in the area to enhance the forest sustainable management and landscape planning.展开更多

文摘Reliability and optimization are two key elements for structural design. The reliability~ based topology optimization (RBTO) is a powerful and promising methodology for finding the optimum topologies with the uncertainties being explicitly considered, typically manifested by the use of reliability constraints. Generally, a direct integration of reliability concept and topol- ogy optimization may lead to computational difficulties. In view of this fact, three methodologies have been presented in this study, including the double-loop approach (the performance measure approach, PMA) and the decoupled approaches (the so-called Hybrid method and the sequential optimization and reliability assessment, SORA). For reliability analysis, the stochastic response surface method (SRSM) was applied, combining with the design of experiments generated by the sparse grid method, which has been proven as an effective and special discretization technique. The methodologies were investigated with three numerical examples considering the uncertainties including material properties and external loads. The optimal topologies obtained using the de- terministic, RBTOs were compared with one another; and useful conclusions regarding validity, accuracy and efficiency were drawn.

文摘Parametric rolling is one of five types of the ship stability failure modes as proposed by IMO. The periodic change of the metacentric height is often considered as the internal cause of this phenomenon. Parametric rolling is a complex nonlinear hydrodynamic problem, often accompanied by large amplitude vertical motions of ships. In recent years,the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes(RANS) equation simulations for viscous flows have made great progress in the field of ship seakeeping. In this paper, the parametric rolling for the C11 containership in regular waves is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experiments, parametric rolling amplitudes at different drafts, forward speeds and wave steepnesses are analyzed. The differences in the steady amplitudes of parametric rolling are observed for two drafts. The effect of the incident wave steepness(or wave amplitude) is also studied, and this supports previous results obtained on limits of the stability for parametric rolling. In numerical simulations, the ship motions of parametric rolling are analyzed by use of the potential-flow and viscous-flow methods. In the viscousflow method, the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are solved using the overset grid method. The numerical accuracies of the two methods at different wave steepnesses are also discussed.

文摘Complex flow around floating structures is a highly nonlinear problem,and it is a typical feature in ship and ocean engineering.Traditional experimental methods and potential flow theory have limitations in predicting complex viscous flows.With the improvement of high-performance computing and the development of numerical techniques,computational fluid dynamics(CFD)has become increasingly powerful in predicting the complex viscous flow around floating structures.This paper reviews the recent progress in CFD techniques for numerical solutions of typical complex viscous flows in ship and ocean engineering.Applications to free-surface flows,breaking bow waves of high-speed ship,ship hull-propeller-rudder interaction,vortexinduced vibration of risers,vortex-induced motions of deep-draft platforms,and floating offshore wind turbines are discussed.Typical techniques,including volume of fluid for sharp interface,dynamic overset grid,detached eddy simulation,and fluid-structure coupling,are reviewed along with their applications.Some novel techniques,such as high-efficiency Cartesian grid method and GPU acceleration technique,are discussed in the last part as the future perspective for further enhancement of accuracy and efficiency for CFD simulations of complex flow in ship and ocean engineering.

文摘During the conventional continuous casting process of high-aluminum steels(w([Al])>0.5 wt.%),some components of slag,such as SiO_(2),B_(2)O_(3),and TiO_(2),could be reduced by aluminum in molten steel.Therefore,the CaO-BaO-Al_(2)O_(3)-CaF2-Li2O non-reactive mold fluxes were designed using the simplex grid method and molecular dynamics to mitigate the slag-metal interface reaction and stabilize the performance of mold fluxes.The results show that the components of nonreactive quinary system are 20-40 wt.% CaO,14-34 wt.% BaO,14-34 wt.% Al_(2)O_(3),4-12 wt.% F,and 4-8 wt.% Li_(2)O.Molecular dynamics simulation results show that[AlO_(4)]-tetrahedron acts as network formers and melt network structure is mainly chain and lamellar in the low-viscosity area.The cross sections of w(F)=8 wt.%,w(Li_(2)O)=8 wt.%and w(F)=12 wt.%,w(Li2O)=8 wt.% are important reference sections for the design of mold flux,with the compositions of 22-40 wt.%CaO,14-34 wt.% BaO,20-34 wt.%Al_(2)O_(3) and 23-40 wt.%CaO,14-34 wt.%BaO,20-28 wt.% Al_(2)O_(3),respectively.

文摘This paper presents a robust topology optimization design approach for multi-material functional graded structures under periodic constraint with load uncertainties.To characterize the random-field uncertainties with a reduced set of random variables,the Karhunen-Lo`eve(K-L)expansion is adopted.The sparse grid numerical integration method is employed to transform the robust topology optimization into a weighted summation of series of deterministic topology optimization.Under dividing the design domain,the volume fraction of each preset gradient layer is extracted.Based on the ordered solid isotropic microstructure with penalization(Ordered-SIMP),a functionally graded multi-material interpolation model is formulated by individually optimizing each preset gradient layer.The periodic constraint setting of the gradient layer is achieved by redistributing the average element compliance in sub-regions.Then,the method of moving asymptotes(MMA)is introduced to iteratively update the design variables.Several numerical examples are presented to verify the validity and applicability of the proposed method.The results demonstrate that the periodic functionally graded multi-material topology can be obtained under different numbers of sub-regions,and robust design structures are more stable than that indicated by the deterministic results.
文摘Aiming at the disadvantages of the basic ant colony algorithm, this paper proposes an improved ant colony algorithm for robot global path planning. First, adjust the pheromone evaporation rate dynamically to enhance the global search ability and convergence speed, and then modify the heuristic function to improve the state transition probabilities in order to find the optimal solution as quickly as possible;and finally change the pheromone update strategy to avoid premature by strengthening pheromone on the optimal path and limiting pheromone level. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the improved algorithm.
文摘Landscape pattern is a widely used concept for the demonstration of landscape characteristic features. The integral spatial distribution trend of landscape elements is interested point in the landscape ecological research, especially in those of complex secondary forest regions with confusing mosaics of land cover. Trend surface analysis which used in community and population ecological researches was introduced to reveal the landscape pattern. A reasonable and reliable approach for application of trend surface analysis was provided in detail. As key steps of the approach, uniform grid point sampling method was developed. The efforts were also concentrated at an example of Guandishan forested landscape. Some basic rules of spatial distribution of landscape elements were exclaimed. These will be benefit to the further study in the area to enhance the forest sustainable management and landscape planning.

文摘This study proposes an elastic finite difference(FD)time domain method with variable grids in three-dimensional cylindrical coordinates.The calculations will diverge and become less accurate by conventional cylindrical FD as the grid size gradually becomes more extensive with the increasing radius.To prevent grids from being too coarse in far fields,we compensate for the grid cell infl ation by refi ning the grid step in the azimuthal direction.The variable grid FD in the cylindrical coordinate systems has a higher effi ciency in solving acoustic logging while drilling(LWD)problems because the grid boundaries are consistent with those of the drill collar and the borehole.The proposed algorithm saves approximately 94%of the FD grids,80%of the computation time,and memory with a higher calculation accuracy than the FD on rectangular grids for the same models.We also calculate the acoustic LWD responses of the fl uid-fi lled borehole intersecting with fractures.Refl ections are generated at the fractures,which can be equivalent to an additional scattering source.The mode conversions between the collar and the Stoneley waves are revealed.The Stoneley spectra are more sensitive to the fracture.Finally,the logs in a heterogeneous formation with two refl ectors far from the borehole are modeled,and a means of estimating the azimuth of geological interfaces from refl ections is proposed.

文摘To meet the requirements of fast and automatic computation of subsonic and transonic aerodynamics in aircraft conceptual design,a novel finite volume solver for full potential flows on adaptive Cartesian grids is developed in this paper.Cartesian grids with geometric adaptation are firstly generated automatically with boundary cells processed by cell-cutting and cell-merging algorithms.The nonlinear full potential equation is discretized by a finite volume scheme on these Cartesian grids and iteratively solved in an implicit fashion with a generalized minimum residual(GMRES) algorithm.During computation,solution-based mesh adaptation is also applied so as to capture flow features more accurately.An improved ghost-cell method is proposed to implement the non-penetration wall boundary condition where the velocity-potential of a ghost cell is modified by an analytic method instead.According to the characteristics of the Cartesian grids,the Kutta condition is applied by specially computing the gradients on Kutta-faces without directly assigning the potential jump to cells adjacent wake faces,which can significantly improve the solution converging speed.The feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method are validated by several typical cases of sub/transonic flows around an ONERA M6 wing,a DLR-F4 wing-body,and an unconventional figuration of a blended wing body(BWB).The validation cases demonstrate a fast convergence with fully automatic grid treatment and computation,and the results suggest its capacity in application for aircraft conceptual design.
