Abstract In this manuscript, a finite volume discrete topology optimization method based on the continuous adjoint method is proposed to simulate turbulent flow using the k-omega turbulence model for solving the topology optimization problem of conjugate heat transfer at high Reynolds number. The manuscript simulates the conjugate turbulent convective heat transfer problem at high Reynolds number with a set of Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations coupled with energy transport equations and control equations of the k-omega turbulence model, and implements the methodology by using the variable density method, interpolates the material values of thermal conductivity, heat capacity,… More >

Abstract The "curse of dimensionality" faced by high-dimensional complex engineering problems can be tackled by a set of quantitative model evaluation and analysis tools named high-dimensional model representation (HDMR) [1,2], which has attracted much attention from researchers in various fields, such as global sensitivity analysis (GSA) [3], structural reliability analysis (SRA) [4], CFD uncertainty quantification [5] and so on [6]. In this paper, a new method for uncertainty quantification is proposed. Firstly, PCE-HDMR for SRA is developed by taking advantage of the accuracy and efficiency of PCE-HDMR for modeling high-dimensional problems [7]. Secondly, the formulas for… More >

Abstract Continental shale oil reservoirs, characterized by numerous bedding planes and micro-nano scale pores, feature significantly higher stress sensitivity compared to other types of reservoirs. However, research on suitable stress sensitivity characterization models is still limited. In this study, three commonly used stress sensitivity models for shale oil reservoirs were considered, and experiments on representative core samples were conducted. By fitting and comparing the data, the “exponential model” was identified as a characterization model that accurately represents stress sensitivity in continental shale oil reservoirs. To validate the accuracy of the model, a two-phase seepage mathematical model More >

Abstract Due to the lack of a quantitative basis for the inspection, evaluation, and identification of existing transmission tower foundations, a new fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is proposed to assess the reliability of transmission tower foundation bearing capacity. This method is based on the reliability analysis of the transmission tower foundation bearing capacity by analyzing the sensitivity of degradation of detection indexes on the reliability of transmission tower foundation bearing capacity, the weighting coefficient matrix is established about the influencing factors in the evaluation model. Through the correlation analysis between the bearing capacity degradation of the More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract In this paper, an adaptive polynomial chaos expansion method (PCE) based on the method of moments (MoM) is proposed to construct surrogate models for electromagnetic scattering and further sensitivity analysis. The MoM is applied to accurately solve the electric field integral equation (EFIE) of electromagnetic scattering from homogeneous dielectric targets. Within the bistatic radar cross section (RCS) as the research object, the adaptive PCE algorithm is devoted to selecting the appropriate order to construct the multivariate surrogate model. The corresponding sensitivity results are given by the further derivative operation, which is compared with those of More >

Abstract The global population has been and will continue to be severely impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. The primary objective of this research is to demonstrate the future impact of COVID-19 on those who suffer from other fatal conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Here, using ordinary differential equations (ODEs), two mathematical models are developed to explain the association between COVID-19 and cancer and between COVID-19 and diabetes and heart disease. After that, we highlight the stability assessments that can be applied to these models. Sensitivity analysis is used to examine how changes in… More >

Abstract To improve the productivity of oil wells, perforation technology is usually used to improve the productivity of horizontal wells in oilfield exploitation. After the perforation operation, the perforation channel around the wellbore will form a near-well high-permeability reservoir area with the penetration depth as the radius, that is, the formation has different permeability characteristics with the perforation depth as the dividing line. Generally, the permeability is measured by the permeability tester, but this approach has a high workload and limited application. In this paper, according to the reservoir characteristics of perforated horizontal wells, the reservoir… More >

Abstract This paper presents an accurate and efficient indirect boundary element method (IBEM) accelerated by the fast multipole algorithm (FMA)for the design sensitivity analysis of large-scale thin-body acoustic problems above an infinite impedance plane. The non-uniqueness issue of the IBEM in solving exterior acoustic problems is avoided by applying a hybrid combination of single- and double-layer potentials. The half-space impedance Green’s function which involves an image complex line source and is valid for both mass-like and spring-like impedance plane is employed to involve the sound-absorbing effect of the ground surface.

Abstract A common difficulty in building prediction models with realworld environmental datasets is the skewed distribution of classes. There are significantly more samples for day-to-day classes, while rare events such as polluted classes are uncommon. Consequently, the limited availability of minority outcomes lowers the classifier’s overall reliability. This study assesses the capability of machine learning (ML) algorithms in tackling imbalanced water quality data based on the metrics of precision, recall, and F1 score. It intends to balance the misled accuracy towards the majority of data. Hence, 10 ML algorithms of its performance are compared. The classifiers… More >

Abstract The absorber is the key unit in the post-combustion monoethanolamine (MEA)-based carbon dioxide (CO₂) capture process. A rate-based dynamic model for the absorber is developed and validated using steady-state experimental data reported in open literature. Sensitivity analysis is performed with respect to important model parameters associated with the reaction, mass transport and physical property relationships. Then, a singular value decomposition (SVD)-based subspace parameter estimation method is proposed to improve the model accuracy. Finally, dynamic simulations are carried out to investigate the effects of the feed rate of lean MEA solution and the flue inlet conditions. Simulation More >
