Osbeck (Sapindales: Rutaceae) on the abundance of eggs and nymphal stages of Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae). The experiment was established on 3.18 hectares cultivated with Valencia orange. The number of eggs, nymphs, temperature, relative humidity, and scale of the size of the shoot were recorded from January to July and from September to November 2020. The association of these variables was determined by multiple correspondence analyses. The conservation of the same number of individuals between consecutive samples and the increase in the number of eggs and nymphs was associated with temperature (17˚C - 23˚C), relative humidity (75% - 78%) and the availability of shoots from V1 to VS in March, April, June, and July. The largest number of N1 and N2 nymphs was recorded in January, February, May, and October. The highest population of eggs and nymphs N3 and N5 occurred in September. In November, there was a reduction in eggs and nymphs. Meanwhile, the nymph N4 was presented independently of the variables analyzed.展开更多

In this paper, the influence of core box vents distribution on the flow dynamics of core shooting process was investigated based on in situ experimental observations with transparent core box, high-speed camera and pressure measuring system. Attention was focused on the variation of both the flow behavior of sand and pressure curves due to different vents distribution. Taking both kinetic and frictional stress into account, a kinetic-frictional constitutive model was established to describe the internal momentum transfer in the solid phase. Two-fluid model(TFM) simulation was then performed and good agreement was achieved between the experimental and simulated results on both the flow behavior of sand and the pressure curves. It was found that vents distribution has direct effect on the pressure difference of different locations in the core box, which determines the buoyancy force exerting on the sand particles and significantly influences the filling process of core sand.展开更多

Although numerical simulation can hopefully optimize the core shooting process, research on numerical simulation of the core shooting process is very limited. Based on a two-fluid model(TFM) and a kinetic-friction constitutive correlation, a program for 3D numerical simulation of the core shooting process has been developed and achieved good agreements with in-situ experiments. To match the needs of engineering applications, a graphics processing unit(GPU) has also been used to improve the calculation efficiency. The parallel algorithm based on the Compute Unified Device Architecture(CUDA) platform can significantly decrease computing time by multi-threaded GPU. In this work, the program accelerated by CUDA parallelization method was developed and the accuracy of the calculations was ensured by comparing with in-situ experimental results photographed by a high-speed camera. The design and optimization of the parallel algorithm were discussed. The simulation result of a sand core test-piece indicated the improvement of the calculation efficiency by GPU. The developed program has also been validated by in-situ experiments with a transparent core-box, a high-speed camera, and a pressure measuring system. The computing time of the parallel program was reduced by nearly 95% while the simulation result was still quite consistent with experimental data. The GPU parallelization method can successfully solve the problem of low computational efficiency of the 3D sand shooting simulation program, and thus the developed GPU program is appropriate for engineering applications.展开更多

To confirm whether the core shooting process has significant turbulence, the flow pattern of sand particles in the shooting head and core box was reproduced with colored core sands. By incorporating the kinetic theory of granular flow(KTGF), kinetic-frictional constitutive correlation and turbulence model, a two-fluid model(TFM) was established to study the flow dynamics of the core shooting process. Two-fluid model(TFM) simulations were then performed and a areasonable agreement was achieved between the simulation and experimental results. Based on the experimental and simulation results, the effects of turbulence, sand density, sand diameter and binder ratio were analyzed in terms of filling process, sand volume fraction(αs) and sand velocity(Vs).展开更多

The numerical results illustrate that the energy eigenvalues of anharmonic oscillators with the symplectic scheme-shooting method are in good agreement with the numerical accurate ones obtained from the non-perturbative method by using an appropriately scaled basis for the expansion of each eigenfunction; and the energy eigenvalues of doubly anharmonic oscillators with the sympolectic scheme-shooting method are in good agreement with the exact ones and are better than the results obtained from the four-term asymptotic series. Therefore, the symplectic scheme-shooting method, which is very simple and is easy to grasp, is a good numerical algorithm.展开更多
