    CFD-Based Optimization of a Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger

    Juanjuan Wang*, Jiangping Nan, Yanan Wang

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.11, pp. 2761-2775, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.021175

    Abstract The main objective of this study is the technical optimization of a Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE). In order to do so, a simulation model is introduced that takes into account the related gas-phase circulation. Then, simulation verification experiments are designed in order to validate the model. The results show that the temperature field undergoes strong variations in time when an inlet wind speed of 6 m/s is considered, while the heat transfer error reaches a minimum of 5.1%. For an inlet velocity of 9 m/s, the heat transfer drops to the lowest point, while the heat transfer error reaches a… More >

    Ion dynamics and Manipulation Under Extreme Confinement

    Yahui Xue1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09724

    Abstract Ion dynamics and precise control in nanochannels play key roles in biological systems, energy conversation, and environmental engineering. However, the mechanics behaviors of ions and their manipulation mechanism under extreme confinement remain largely unexplored. Biological ion channels acting as life’s transistors can gate simultaneously fast and selective ion transport through atomic-scale filters to maintain vital life functions. This biological inspiration motivates the quest for artificial structures with simultaneous functions of ion selectivity, fast transport and electrical gating at the atomic scale. Here, we experimentally investigate the ion dynamics and electrical manipulation in graphene channels of 3 angstrom size and report… More >

    The Mechanical Property of 2D Materials and Potential Application in Gas Separation

    Dong Li1,*, Yonggang Zheng1, Hongwu Zhang1, Hongfei Ye1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09714

    Abstract The family of 2D transition-metal oxides and dichalcogenides with 1H phase (1H-MX2) has sparked great interest from the perspective of basic physics and applied science. Interestingly, their performances could be further regulated and improved through strain engineering. Effective regulation is founded on a wellunderstood mechanical performance, however, the large number of 1H-MX2 materials has not yet been revealed. Here, a general theoretical model is constructed based on the molecular mechanics, which provides an effective and rapid analytical algorithm for evaluating the mechanical properties of the entire family of 1H-MX2. The validity of the constructed model is verified by molecular dynamics… More >

    Self-Driven Droplet on the Bilayer Two-Dimensional Materials and Nanoscale Channel with Controllable Gradient Wettability

    Hongfei Ye1,*, Chenguang Yin1, Jian Wang1, Yonggang Zheng1, Hongwu Zhang1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.1, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09741

    Abstract The wetting behavior is ubiquitous in natural phenomenon as well as engineering application. As an intrinsic property of solid surface, the wettability with a controllable gradient has been an attractive issue with a wide application in various fields, including microfluidic devices, self-driven transport, biotechnologies, etc. Generally, it often requires elaborate design of microstructure or its response under the electrical, thermal, optical, pH stimuli, etc. However, the relevant complex underlying mechanism makes it difficult to construct quantitative relations between the wettability and the external field for the fine design. In this work, based on the bilayer two-dimensional materials, a simple controlling… More >

    Study on Peridynamics Simulation Method of Anti-Penetration of Ceramic/Metal Composite Structures

    Haoran Zhang1, Lisheng Liu2,*, Qiwen Liu2, Xin Lai2

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.1, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09493

    Abstract Ceramic metal composite structure with high hardness, high bending strength of ceramic materials as the front layer and materials with high tensile strength, high elongation as the backing layer, has excellent penetration resistance. The current numerical methods for studying the penetration resistance of ceramic/metal composite structures under ballistic impact still have many deficiencies. Peridynamics (PD) is a novel nonlocal theory that is well suited for simulations involving damage and fracture behavior. At present, the existing rate-dependent bond-based PD (BB-PD) constitutive model considering the rotation effect and the Johnson-Cook (JC) metal model based on non-ordinary state-based PD (SB-PD) have been proved… More >

    Uniaxial Compressive Mechanical Properties of Three-Dimensional Graphene: Theoretical Models and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

    Xinliang Li1, Jiangang Guo1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.1, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09484

    Abstract As the first two-dimensional (2D) material discovered in experiments, graphene has attracted increasing attention from the scientific community [1]. And it possesses many superb mechanical, electronic and optical properties [2-4] due to its unique atomic structure. Its Young’s modulus and failure strength are 1TPa and 130GPa [5], respectively. Thus, 2D graphene has been extensively used in nanosensors and nanocomposites [6-8], etc. In order to fabricate graphene-based devices which inherit outstanding properties of 2D graphene, materials scientists are trying to use 2D graphene as building blocks to construct three-dimensional (3D) carbon nanomaterials, such as 3D graphene networks [9-11]. Nowadays, these 3D… More >

    A Spatiotemporal Nonlocal Model for Overall Dynamics of Composites and Its Analytical Solutions

    Linjuan Wang1,*, Jianxiang Wang2

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.1, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09355

    Abstract The prediction of overall dynamics of composite materials has been an intriguing research topic more than a century, and numerous approaches have been developed for this topic. One of the most successful representatives is the classical micromechanical models which assume that the behavior of a composite is the same as its constituents except for the difference in mechanical properties, e.g., effective moduli. With the development of advanced composite materials in recent years, especially metamaterials, it is found that the classical micromechanical models cannot describe complex dynamic responses of composites such as the dispersion and bandgaps of elastic waves. Thus, some… More >

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.4, pp. 1-3, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09269

    Abstract SPH method is widely used to study the dynamic response of metal casing under explosive loading because of its superiority in simulating metal fracture phenomenon [1-3]. The distribution of the fragment from uncoupled charge structures with segmental shaped explosive were studied. The X-ray photographic images of fragmentation obtained from explosion experiment were compared with the numerical results based on SPH method and Lagrange method. The fragmentation shows that the numerical results based on the Lagrange method are in good agreement with the experimental results while some errors appear in results based on SPH method. The velocity of the fragments at… More >

    Fujian Zhang1, Xiang Gao1, Zhongqiang Zhang1,2,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09169

    Abstract Biological features such as the bumps on the back of desert beetles and the spikes of cacti enable the directional transport of water droplets, creating conditions for their survival in nature. Inspired by the interesting natural phenomenon, a novel design of nanopillared surface with a gradient density of structural pillar matrix covered by a monolayer graphene is proposed to realize ultrafast self-driving of water droplets. The droplet can move spontaneously at ultrahigh speed of 75.7 m/s (272.52 km/h) from sparsest to densest regions of pillars while a wettability gradient is created by the gradient distribution density of pillar matrix relying… More >

    Peridynamic Analysis on Failure of Cantilever Beam Subjected to a Concentrated Force and Uniform Distributed Traction

    Zeyuan Zhou1, Ming Yu1, Zaixing Huang1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09135

    Abstract Peridynamics (PD) is a reformulation of the classical continuum mechanics. Its core consists in that a weighted integral of relative displacement over a spatial domain is used instead of the spatial derivative of displacement in governing equations of deformation. Based on an improved technique of exerting traction on boundary surface, an improved peridynamic motion equation has been proposed within the framework of the peridynamic(PD) theory. It is more natural and easier to deal with boundary conditions for the elastic deformation and fracture analysis. Under the enhancement effect in the constructed transfer functions of boundary traction, there is not needed the… More >
