    Viscous Incompressible Flows by the Velocity-Vorticity Navier-Stokes Equations

    Alfredo Nicolás1, Blanca Bermúdez2
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.20, No.2, pp. 73-84, 2007, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2007.020.073
    Abstract 2D viscous incompressible flows are presented from the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations in its velocity-vorticity formulation. The results are obtained using a simple numerical procedure based on a fixed point iterative process to solve the nonlinear elliptic system that results once a second order time discretization is performed. Flows on the un-regularized unit driven cavity problem are reported up to Reynolds numbers Re=4000 to compare them with those reported by other authors, mainly solving the steady problem, and supposed to be correct. Moreover, results are reported for Re = 1000, 4000, 5000, and 10000 to see how More >

    An Investigation of Wave Propagation with High Wave Numbers via the Regularized LBIEM

    H.B. Chen1, D.J. Fu1, P.Q. Zhang1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.20, No.2, pp. 85-98, 2007, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2007.020.085
    Abstract Researches today show that, both approximation and dispersion errors are encountered by classical Galerkin FEM solutions for Helmholtz equation governing the harmonic wave propagation, which leads to numerical inaccuracies especially for high wave number cases. In this paper, Local Boundary Integral Equation Method (LBIEM) is firstly implemented to solve the boundary value problem of Helmholtz equation. Then the regularized LBIE is proposed to overcome the singularities of the boundary integrals in the LBIEM. Owing to the advantages of the Moving Least Square Approximation (MLSA), the frequency-dependent basis functions modified by the harmonic wave propagation solutions More >

    An Accurate Refinement Scheme for Inverse Heat Source Location Identifications

    Leevan Ling1, Tomoya Takeuchi2
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.20, No.2, pp. 99-110, 2007, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2007.020.099
    Abstract We aim to identify the unknown source locations in a two-dimensional heat equation from scattered measurements. In [Inverse Problems, 22(4):1289--1305, 2006], we proposed a numerical procedure that identifies the unknown source locations of 2D heat equation solely based on three measurement points. Due to the nonlinearity and complexity of the problem, the quality of the resulting estimations is often poor especially when the number of unknown is large. In this paper, we purpose a linear refinement scheme that takes the outputs of the existing nonlinear algorithm as initial guesses and iteratively improves on the accuracy More >

    A Highly Accurate Solver for the Mixed-Boundary Potential Problem and Singular Problem in Arbitrary Plane Domain

    Chein-Shan Liu 1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.20, No.2, pp. 111-122, 2007, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2007.020.111
    Abstract A highly accurate new solver is developed to deal with interior and exterior mixed-boundary value problems for two-dimensional Laplace equation, including the singular ones. To promote the present study, we introduce a circular artificial boundary which is uniquely determined by the physical problem domain, and derive a Dirichlet to Robin mapping on that artificial circle, which is an exact boundary condition described by the first kind Fredholm integral equation. As a consequence, we obtain a modified Trefftz method equipped with a characteristic length factor, ensuring that the new solver is stable because the condition number More >

    Mechanical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations with the Inlayer van der Waals Interactions

    W.H. Chen1, H.C. Cheng2, Y.C. Hsu3
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.20, No.2, pp. 123-146, 2007, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2007.020.123
    Abstract The evaluation of the fundamental mechanical properties of single/multi-walled carbon nanotubes(S/MWCNTs) is of great importance for their industrial applications. The present work is thus devoted to the determination of various mechanical properties of S/MWCNTs using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The study first focuses on the exploration of the effect of the weak inlayer van der Waals (vdW) atomistic interactions on the mechanical properties of S/MWCNTs. Secondly, in addition to the zig-zag and armchair types of CNTs, the hybrid type of MWCNTs that comprise a zig-zag outer tube and an inner armchair tube is also analyzed.… More >
