Time-domain simulation of second-order irregular wave diffraction based on a hybrid water wave radiation condition
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A time-domain second-order method is presented to simulate three-dimensional wave–body interaction. In the approach, Taylor series expansions are applied to the free surface boundary conditions, and a Stokes perturbation ...
Random number of units for K-out-of-n systems
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
This paper takes up the reliability and preventive replacement problems for a K-out-of-n system, where K is a stochastic parameter provided. Firstly, we consider the case when K is predefined as constant numbers as is done ...
Phase-I monitoring of high-dimensional covariance matrix using an adaptive thresholding LASSO rule
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
High-dimensional variability monitoring and diagnosing is of great prominence for the quality improvement and cost reduction. Most of the existing control charts are mainly based on the assumption that the in-control ...
Experimental analysis of water evaporation losses in cooling towers using filters
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Water evaporation losses in cooling towers account for considerable amount of fresh water consumption, which calls for proven and economically viable technologies to address this problem. The use of filters mounted on to ...
Heat transfer measurements of Polyalpha-Olefin- boron nitride nanofluids for thermal management and lubrication applications
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
In this paper, the first study is reported combining Polyalpha-Olefin (PAO) oil with hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) to produce new class of nanofluids for heat transfer and lubrication applications. The heat transfer ...
Turbulence Modeling Using Z-F Model and RSM for Flow Analysis in Z-SHAPE Ducts
(
Wiley
, 2020 , Article)
Turbulent flow in Z-shape duct configuration is investigated using Reynolds stress model (RSM) and ζ-f model and compared to experimental results. Both RSM and ζ-f models are based on steady-state RANS solutions. The focus ...
Isobaric Expansion Engines Powered by Low-Grade Heat-Working Fluid Performance and Selection Database for Power and Thermomechanical Refrigeration
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
A database is developed for the most suitable working fluids for Worthington-type and Bush-type isobaric engines based on their performances for a wide range of heat source temperature, from 40 to 300 °C, and operating ...
Large-eddy simulation of the flow in Z-Shape duct
(
Cogent OA
, 2020 , Article)
A numerical study is conducted of the transient flow in a z-shape three-dimensional duct using large-eddy simulation (LES) with dynamic eddy viscosity subgrid-scale (SGS) model with a fully structured grid system. The ...
