Nanofluids containing silver (Ag) nanoparticles have been used in three dimensional ink-jet printing (3DP) in recent years. Rheological properties of the nanofluids, for example, viscosity, play significant roles during the application. In this paper, viscosity of Ag-water nanofluid has been predicted using the equilibrium molecular dynamics method. The influencing factors of the viscosity, including temperature, nanoparticle size, nanoparticle concentration and nanoparticle aggregation, have been investigated. By screening the existing water models, TIP4P/2005 model is found the most suitable for viscosity calculation under the temperature range. The weight fraction of the nanoparticles, which proves more appropriate, is used during the study of the concentration effect instead of volume fraction. The results show that the viscosity of the nanofluid goes up by decreasing temperature or increasing nanoparticle concentration. Furthermore, as the nanoparticles get smaller, or aggregate, the viscosity increases slightly.

With the three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics method, the airflow effects over the huge telescope assemble is investigated in this article. The distributing of velocity field and natural convection are studied by modeling and simulating the turbulent airflow of the huge telescope. Numerical simulations show the best observation direction is the 90o angle between the main optics axis and the horizontal line in which the air velocity distribution is the least. And the air temperature distribution and uniformity around the telescope are also provided by simulation.

Three-dimensional reconstructions from projections are usually ridden by noise from different sources. A common problem among many three-dimensional reconstruction techniques is the systematic absence of certain projections, but also the accidental absence of spurious projections. In these three-dimensional reconstructions such absences are visible as directional smearing due to convolution. Other convolution effects such as those due to the optics of the instrument used to record the data usually cause severe damping of high frequencies and even contrast reversal (common in images from electron microscopes).Several approaches to overcome these ‘noise’ effects in three-dimensional reconstructions have been developed, but they usually suffer from the very small radius of convergence. Very easily and commonly, the refinement iterations end up stuck in a premature choice of a minimum. We have developed another algorithm, constrained maximum entropy tomography (COMET), that in practice has been shown to overcome these problems.

The effect of bend angle on plastic limit loads of pipe bends (elbows) under in-plane opening and closing bending moment is presented using three-dimensional large strain nonlinear finite element analyses. The results show that the presence of ovality significantly leads to the stress concentration in the middle cross section, which is the critical section of pipe bends. Meanwhile the state of stress concentration is also associated with the loading modes including the in-plane opening bending moment and the closing bending moment. Then plastic limit loads of pipe bends are further studied. It is found that plastic limit loads are decreasing with the increase of bend angles. Especially the variation of plastic limit loads of small angle pipe bends (bend angle from the 0 degree to 90 degree) is larger than that of large angle pipe bends (bend angle greater than 90 degree). Based on the finite element results, the present plastic limit load solutions are not fit for the large angle pipe bends (bend angle greater than 90 degree).
