A computational method of reduced complexity is developed for simulating vascular hemodynamics by combination of one-dimensional (1D) wave propagation models for the blood vessels with zero-dimensional (0D) lumped models for the microcirculation. Despite the reduced dimension, current algorithms used to solve the model equations and simulate pressure and flow are rather complex, thereby limiting acceptance in the medical field. This complexity mainly arises from the methods used to combine the 1D and the 0D model equations. In this paper a numerical method is presented that no longer requires additional coupling methods and enables random combinations of 1D and 0D models using pressure as only state variable. The method is applied to a vascular tree consisting of 60 major arteries in the body and the head. Simulated results are realistic. The numerical method is stable and shows good convergence.

We present both a mathematical model and a numerical method for simulating induction heating processes. The geometry of the conductors is cylindrical and the magnetic field is assumed to be parallel to the invariance axis. The model equations have current tension as prescribed data rather than current intensity. In particular, the formulation of the electromagnetic problem uses the magnetic field as the unknown function. The numerical method takes into account the time periodicity of the prescribed tension and deals with the two different time scales of electromagnetic and thermal phenomena.

The geothermal resources in sedimentary basin are affected by many factors because the characteristic of geothermal reservoirs is very complex, so the heat storage capacities are hard to calculate. This paper took Dunhuang Basin as an example to analyze the geological structure, stratigraphic structure and the formation mechanism of geothermal water based on the formation characteristics of the geothermal resources. The analysis results showed the geothermal reservoir parameters, including the area, thickness, and temperature of the geothermal reservoir, and porosity, etc. Based on geothermal reservoir model, the conclusion was that the geothermal resource of Dunhuang Basin was 7.75E+16kJ. The results provided an advice for the exploitation of geothermal resources in sedimentary basins.
