In this paper a new type of endoprothesis THRA with needle-palisade fixation system has been described. A numerical model of such fixation has been created. The developed model was subjected to experimental verification. During the test, the prototype of the needle palisade structure was inserted into the cancellous bone. The test results were compared with numerical simulation.

The chloride ions diffusion in concrete is an important problem inducing the corrosion of reinforcement under marine environment. Based on a parallel transmission model, the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions in ITZ was determined. Thereafter, the measured parameters of ITZ were integrated into a numerical model to simulate the chloride ions diffusion and the reliability of the model was verified by comparing the numerical simulation with the surface scanning results collected from the electron microprobe. The test results show that if the concrete is taken as a threephase composites, the numerical model can reflect the real transmission process of chloride ion more accurately.

This study aimed to predict the formability of AZ31B alloy sheets at elevated temperatures by combining the experimental test with numerical simulation. Forming limit tests were performed to obtain the FLDs of the AZ31B alloy sheet at elevated temperatures of 250 °C and 300 °C. Numerical simulations of warm stamping for a camera case were established based on the forming test results. Furthermore, warm stamping experiments for the camera case were performed to validate the correction of the simulated results. The numerical results show a good agreement with the experimental observations.

The Front-mounted Water Separation Propeller is a new-type energy saving propulsion device, on which it’s necessary to make research. A numerical simulation on the hydrodynamic performance of the Front-mounted Water Separation Propeller by RANS method was performed. The simple ship models with and without Front-mounted Water Separation Propeller were established and meshed by using hybrid grid. The drag performances of the ship model with and without Front-mounted Water Separation Propeller were performed separately by using Kω-SST turbulence model and VOF model. The method provided in this article is proved to be effective by make comparison between the simulation results and the model test results. The results show that the ship resistance can be reduced by using the Front-mounted Water Separation Propeller.

Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) modules are a new type of photovoltaic (PV) modules that are widely used in distributed PV stations on the roof of buildings for power generation. Due to the high installation location, BIPV modules suffer from lightning hazard greatly. In order to evaluate the risk of lightning stroke and consequent damage to BIPV modules, the studies on the lightning attachment characteristics and the lightning energy withstand capability are conducted, respectively, based on numerical and experimental methods in this paper. In the study of lightning attachment characteristics, the numerical simulation results show that it is easier for the charges to concentrate on the upper edge of the BIPV metal frame. Therefore, the electric field strength at the upper edge is enhanced to emit upward leaders and attract the lightning downward leaders. The conclusion is verified through the long-gap discharge experiment in a high voltage lab. From the experimental study of multi-discharge in the lab, it is found that the lightning interception efficiency of the BIPV module is improved by 114% compared with the traditional PV modules. In the study of lightning energy withstand capability, a thermoelectric coupling model is established. With this model, the potential, current and temperature can be calculated in the multi-physical field numerical simulation. The results show that the maximum temperature of the metal frame increases by 16.07 °C when 100 kA lightning current flows through it and does not bring any damage to the PV modules. The numerical results have a good consistency with the experimental study results obtained from the 100 kA impulse current experiment in the lab.

The long-span ice composite shell structure is a new type of ice and snow structure developed in recent years. The engineering practice of ice composite shell shows that sublimation is one of the important reasons for its damage and even collapse. In this paper, we firstly supplemented the existing H-K equation and obtained the revised ice sublimation equation through indoor evaporative plate experiment considering the influence of admixtures and wind speed. Afterwards, combining the simulations of solar radiation and CFD, the numerical simulation of sublimation distribution on the surface of were realized by programming in Grasshopper platform. During sublimation, the thickness of the ice composite shell decreases by 0.38 mm every 10 days and the sublimation rate on the sunny side was 1.7 times that on the shady side. Finally, the static performance and stability of the sublimated ice composite spherical shell were analyzed. After 70 days of sublimation, the thickness of the ice composite shell structure becomes thinner and uneven, which leads its sensitivity to external load increases.
