Abstract By integrating advanced digital technologies such as cloud computing and the Internet of Things in sensor measurement, information communication, and other fields, the digital DC distribution network can efficiently and reliably access Distributed Generator (DG) and Energy Storage Systems (ESS), exhibiting significant advantages in terms of controllability and meeting requirements of Plug-and-Play (PnP) operations. However, during device plug-in and -out processes, improper system parameters may lead to small-signal stability issues. Therefore, before executing PnP operations, conducting stability analysis and adjusting parameters swiftly is crucial. This study introduces a four-stage strategy for parameter optimization to enhance… More >

Abstract When cavitation bubbles collapse near a boundary, they can cause severe cavitation erosion to the boundary, which is a dangerous threat to the rapidly rotating turbines. Prior research has established that for single bubbles a possible mechanism is energy focusing of shockwaves during the non-spherical collapse of cavitation bubbles [1]. This however needs a particularly symmetric environment. A possible approach to reduce the shockwave focusing and thus the erosion would be through suitable modification of the boundary. In a first approach to modify this phenomenon, we introduce the symmetry breaking structure on the boundary in the shape of a slender bar to explore the effect More >

Abstract This study employs the Buongiorno model to explore nanoparticle migration in a mixed convection second-grade fluid over a slendering (variable thickness) stretching sheet. The convective boundary conditions are applied to the surface. In addition, the analysis has been carried out in the presence of Joule heating, slips effects, thermal radiation, heat generation and magnetohydrodynamic. This study aimed to understand the complex dynamics of these nanofluids under various external influences. The governing model has been developed using the flow assumptions such as boundary layer approximations in terms of partial differential equations. Governing partial differential equations are… More >

Abstract Horizontal well drilling and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing are key technologies for the development of shale gas reservoirs. Instantaneous acquisition of hydraulic fracture parameters is crucial for evaluating fracturing effectiveness, optimizing processes, and predicting gas productivity. This paper establishes a transient flow model for shale gas wells based on the boundary element method, achieving the characterization of stimulated reservoir volume for a single stage. By integrating pressure monitoring data following the pumping shut-in period of hydraulic fracturing for well testing interpretation, a workflow for inverting fracture parameters of shale gas wells is established. This new method… More >

Abstract The damage process of ship structures under near-field underwater explosions involves strong nonlinear coupling effects of multiple media, and its numerical simulation poses a serious challenge to traditional numerical algorithms. Based on previous research, this article first establishes a highly compressible multiphase flow numerical calculation model based on the high-precision Discontinuous Galerkin Method (DGM) and a ship elastic-plastic damage dynamic model based on the meshless Reproducing Kernel Particle Method (RKPM). Furthermore, we develop an algorithm for grid-independent dynamic expansion of cracks. Based on this, the Boundary Data Immersion Method (BDIM) is used to couple the More >

Abstract Aiming to address the challenge of inaccurately describing the curve boundary of the complex design domain in traditional finite element mesh, this work proposes a new polygon mesh generation and polygonal scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) using exact non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) boundaries. The NURBS curve information of the boundary can be adaptively updated with mesh changes. Using SBFEM, the boundary elements can be discretized into NURBS elements and conventional elements, whose physical fields are respectively constructed using NURBS basis functions and Lagrange shape functions in the circumferential direction. Furthermore, in the radial direction, More >

Abstract Motivated by the widespread applications of nanofluids, a nanofluid model is proposed which focuses on uniform magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow over a non-linear stretching sheet, incorporating the Casson model for blood-based nanofluid while accounting for viscous and Ohmic dissipation effects under the cases of Constant Surface Temperature (CST) and Prescribed Surface Temperature (PST). The study employs a two-phase model for the nanofluid, coupled with thermophoresis and Brownian motion, to analyze the effects of key fluid parameters such as thermophoresis, Brownian motion, slip velocity, Schmidt number, Eckert number, magnetic parameter, and non-linear stretching parameter on… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Electrolysis tanks are used to smelt metals based on electrochemical principles, and the short-circuiting of the pole plates in the tanks in the production process will lead to high temperatures, thus affecting normal production. Aiming at the problems of time-consuming and poor accuracy of existing infrared methods for high-temperature detection of dense pole plates in electrolysis tanks, an infrared dense pole plate anomalous target detection network YOLOv5-RMF based on You Only Look Once version 5 (YOLOv5) is proposed. Firstly, we modified the Real-Time Enhanced Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (Real-ESRGAN) by changing the U-shaped network (U-Net)… More >

Abstract Time series segmentation has attracted more interests in recent years, which aims to segment time series into different segments, each reflects a state of the monitored objects. Although there have been many surveys on time series segmentation, most of them focus more on change point detection (CPD) methods and overlook the advances in boundary detection (BD) and state detection (SD) methods. In this paper, we categorize time series segmentation methods into CPD, BD, and SD methods, with a specific focus on recent advances in BD and SD methods. Within the scope of BD and SD,… More >

Abstract The dynamics of a bilayer system filling a rectangular cuvette subjected to external heating is studied. The influence of two types of thermal exposure on the flow pattern and on the dynamic contact angle is analyzed. In particular, the cases of local heating from below and distributed thermal load from the lateral walls are considered. The simulation is carried out within the frame of a two-sided evaporative convection model based on the Boussinesq approximation. A benzine–air system is considered as reference system. The variation in time of the contact angle is described for both heating More > Graphic Abstract
