Abstract This review paper provides a comprehensive introduction to various numerical methods for the phase-field model used to simulate the phase separation dynamics of diblock copolymer melts. Diblock copolymer systems form complex structures at the nanometer scale and play a significant role in various applications. The phase-field model, in particular, is essential for describing the formation and evolution of these structures and is widely used as a tool to effectively predict the movement of phase boundaries and the distribution of phases over time. In this paper, we discuss the principles and implementations of various numerical methodologies More >

Abstract The interaction between the particle and the bubble under the ultrasonic wave excitation plays a pivotal role in various applications such as targeted therapy, ultrasonic cleaning, ultrasonography, and microbubble motors. When the particle is in close proximity or even attached to the bubble, a strong fluid-structure interaction occurs, significantly influencing the particle propulsion. The attachment of the bubble to the particle results in distinct bubble pulsation patterns and particle acceleration mechanisms from the non-contact state. Thus, we propose a fluid-structure interaction model based on the boundary integral method (BIM) to comprehensively consider the distance between More >

Abstract Numerical predictions are made for Laminar Forced convection heat transfer with and without buoyancy effects for Supercritical Nitrogen flowing over an isothermal horizontal flat plate with a heated surface facing downwards. Computations are performed by varying the value of from 5 to 30 K and ratio from 1.1 to 1.5. Variation of all the thermophysical properties of supercritical Nitrogen is considered. The wall temperatures are chosen in such a way that two values of T are less than is the temperature at which the fluid has a maximum value of C for the given pressure), More >

Abstract The Mean First-Passage Time (MFPT) and Stochastic Resonance (SR) of a stochastic tumor-immune model with noise perturbation are discussed in this paper. Firstly, considering environmental perturbation, Gaussian white noise and Gaussian colored noise are introduced into a tumor growth model under immune surveillance. As follows, the long-time evolution of the tumor characterized by the Stationary Probability Density (SPD) and MFPT is obtained in theory on the basis of the Approximated Fokker-Planck Equation (AFPE). Herein the recurrence of the tumor from the extinction state to the tumor-present state is more concerned in this paper. A more… More >

Abstract The calculation of the factor of safety (FOS) is an important means of slope evaluation. This paper proposed an improved double strength reduction method (DRM) to analyze the safety of layered slopes. The physical properties of different soil layers of the slopes are different, so the single coefficient strength reduction method (SRM) is not enough to reflect the actual critical state of the slopes. Considering that the water content of the soil in the natural state is the main factor for the strength of the soil, the attenuation law of shear strength of clayey soil… More >

Abstract Two or multiple phases commonly occur as fluid mixture in petroleum industry, where oil, gas and water are often produced and transported together. As a result, petroleum reservoir engineers spent great efforts in the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs by conducting and interpolating the simulation of multiphase flows in porous geological formation. Meanwhile, environmental scientists use subsurface flow and transport models to investigate and compare for example various schemes to inject and store CO2 in subsurface geological formations, such as depleted reservoirs and deep saline aquifers. In this work, we first present… More >

Abstract Advanced air-cooling turbine blades are capable of operating above the melting temperature of Nickel-based superalloy, which accordingly withstand complex thermomechanical fatigue loads during service life. This paper considers the problem of realizing gas turbine representative thermal gradients in the elevated temperature fatigue test, while ensuring the thermal gradient induced stress inside the specimens. For this purpose, a novel temperature control device utilizing impingement cooling, which supplies cooling air inside the gauge section and releases toward the inner wall, was constructed in tubular fatigue specimens. A single induction coil was arranged outside the gauge section, providing… More >

Abstract Statistical distributions are used to model wind speed, and the two-parameters Weibull distribution has proven its effectiveness at characterizing wind speed. Accurate estimation of Weibull parameters, the scale (c) and shape (k), is crucial in describing the actual wind speed data and evaluating the wind energy potential. Therefore, this study compares the most common conventional numerical (CN) estimation methods and the recent intelligent optimization algorithms (IOA) to show how precise estimation of c and k affects the wind energy resource assessments. In addition, this study conducts technical and economic feasibility studies for five sites in the northern… More >

Abstract The human immunodeficiency viruses are two species of Lentivirus that infect humans. Over time, they cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, a condition in which progressive immune system failure allows life-threatening opportunistic infections and cancers to thrive. Human immunodeficiency virus infection came from a type of chimpanzee in Central Africa. Studies show that immunodeficiency viruses may have jumped from chimpanzees to humans as far back as the late 1800s. Over decades, human immunodeficiency viruses slowly spread across Africa and later into other parts of the world. The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) models are significant in studying disease dynamics. In… More >

Abstract The advancement in numerical models of serious resistant illnesses is a key research territory in different fields including the nature and the study of disease transmission. One of the aims of these models is to comprehend the elements of conduction of these infections. For the new strain of Covid-19 (Coronavirus), there has been no immunization to protect individuals from the virus and to forestall its spread so far. All things being equal, control procedures related to medical services, for example, social distancing or separation, isolation, and travel limitations can be adjusted to control this pandemic.… More >
