    Entry Length and Wall Shear Stress in Uniformly Collapsed-Pipe Flow

    M. Thiriet1, S. Naili2, C. Ribreau2

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.4, No.3&4, pp. 473-488, 2003, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2003.004.473

    Abstract The laminar steady flow of incompressible Newtonian fluid is studied in rigid pipes with cross configuration of a collapsed tube to determine both the entry length and the wall shear stress (WSS). The cross section shapes have been defined from the collapse of an infinitely long elastic tube subjected to an uniform transmural pressure. Five characteristic collapsed configurations, from the unstressed down to the point-contact states, with a finite and infinite curvature radius at the contact point, are investigated, although the wall contact is not necessary observed in veins. Such collapsed shapes induce cross gradient More >

    Indirect RBFN Method with Thin Plate Splines for Numerical Solution of Differential Equations

    N. Mai-Duy, T. Tran-Cong1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.4, No.1, pp. 85-102, 2003, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2003.004.085

    Abstract This paper reports a mesh-free Indirect Radial Basis Function Network method (IRBFN) using Thin Plate Splines (TPSs) for numerical solution of Differential Equations (DEs) in rectangular and curvilinear coordinates. The adjustable parameters required by the method are the number of centres, their positions and possibly the order of the TPS. The first and second order TPSs which are widely applied in numerical schemes for numerical solution of DEs are employed in this study. The advantage of the TPS over the multiquadric basis function is that the former, with a given order, does not contain the… More >
