Abstract Presently, there is an increasing number of water outburst accidents in China as mining activity continues to develop to deeper ground. In these accidents, water outburst caused by karst collapse columns often results in serious damage, involving both the loss of lives and significant economic loss. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to study the seepage property and water outburst mechanism of karst collapse columns. In this paper, based on the seepage theory and the groundwater dynamic theory of porous media, a fluid-solid coupling model for karst collapse columns was built and then imported into COMSOL Multiphysics to be solved,… More >

Abstract The accurate and efficient evaluation of nearly singular integrals is one of the major concerned problems in the implementation of the boundary element method (BEM). Among the various commonly used nonlinear transformation methods, the distance transformation technique seems to be a promising method to deal with various orders of nearly singular integrals both in potential and elasticity problems. In this paper, some drawbacks of the conventional distance transformation, such as the sensitivity to the position of projection point, are investigated by numerical tests. A general distance transformation technique is developed to circumvent these drawbacks, which is aimed to remove or… More >

Abstract To simulate accurately a pressure wave propagation problem, a fine mesh is required in order to capture peak pressures accurately. This may require a very large size problem with several millions of elements. To reduce CPU time and prevent high mesh distortion, a two-dimensional problem for blast ignition and pressure propagation is performed first on a fixed Eulerian mesh. When the pressure wave gets closer to the structure, a three dimensional ALE simulation follows, where the fluid mesh and structure mesh at the fluid structure interface are coincident. The three dimensional problem is performed after mapping history variables from the… More >

Abstract The residual correction method is used to predict the temperature distribution of non-Fourier heat transfer with time-dependent boundary condition. The approximate solution of temperature field is obtained by the residual correction method based on the maximum principle in combination with the finite difference method, making it easier and faster to obtain upper and lower approximations of exact solutions, and even can provide clear definitions of the maximum error bounds of the approximate solutions. The proposed method is found to be an effective numerical method with satisfactory accuracy. More >
