Melting And Solidification

An analysis was made of the melting and solidification heat transfer inside a horizontal circular cylinder capsule in which n-octadecane or water was used as a phase change material. Special efforts were made to obtain solutions with high Rayleigh numbers (i.e., for large diameters). To this end, the following three tools had been adopted: (i) To save computation time, a high-accuracy, multipoint, explicit finite difference scheme was adopted; (ii) To eliminate complex moving boundaries, two-dimensional Landau transformation was adopted; (iii) To suppress the strong numerical instability, a smoothing technique using the least square method of the sixth order was devised. Transient aspects for natural convection flow, temperature profiles, and melting interfaces were clarified in detail. It is especially noted that entirely different results from those of Pannu et al. were obtained.

Localization Model

This paper establishes a 3-D localization model and based on this model, it proposes a collaborative localization framework. In this framework, node that observes the object sends its attitude information and the relative position of the object's projection in its camera to the cluster head. The cluster head adopts an algorithm proposed in this paper to select some nodes to participate localization. The localization algorithm is based on least square method. Because the localization framework is based on a 3-D model, the size of the object or other prerequisites is not necessary. At the end of this paper, a simulation is taken on the numbers of nodes selected to locate and the localization accuracy. The result implies that selecting 3~4 nodes is proper. The theoretical analysis and the simulation result also imply that a const computation time cost is paid in this framework with a high localization accuracy (in our simulation environment, a 0.01 meter error).

AbstractIn this paper, we consider a Roseland approximation to radiate heat transfer, Darcy’s model to simulate the flow in porous media and finite-length fin with insulated tip to study the thermal performance and to predict the temperature distribution in a vertical isothermal surface. The energy balance equations of the porous fin with several temperature dependent properties are solved using the Adomian Decomposition Sumudu Transform Method (ADSTM). The effects of various thermophysical parameters, such as the convection-conduction parameter, Surface-ambient radiation parameter, Rayleigh numbers and Hartman number are determined. The results obtained from the ADSTM are further compared with the fourth-fifth order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method and Least Square Method(LSM) (Hoshyar et al. 2016 [

This paper concerns the analysis of important algorithmic attributes, namely, the rate of convergence and scalability, and their impact on Network Utility Maximization (NUM). The contribution of the paper is a novel distributed rate control mechanism with strong convergence and scalability properties. The proposed algorithm employs a distinctive distributed framework, where rate control is derived as a Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) mechanism incorporated with interior-point and trust-region methods. The NUM problem is solved by a barrier method that penalizes any violation of constraints. Lagrangian is applied to the barrier objective function, where multipliers are estimated using Least-square method to iteratively solve the quadratic approximation of the Lagrangian function at the current point to generate a search direction. The uniqueness of the algorithm is that it allows sources to estimate bandwidth prices and thereby enforces a scalable network core by pushing algorithmic complexity to the edges. The fast convergence of the algorithm, in turn, improves the responsiveness of rate control and enables reduced buffer occupancy. The convergence of the proposed algorithm is proved theoretically and is evaluated via simulations. The results demonstrate reasonable reduction of computation-time in tracking the optimal rates and validate the strong convergence properties of the proposed algorithm.

A concept of a kidney uptake coefficient (UC) of 131I-o-hippurate was developed by analogy from the corresponding kidney clearance of blood plasma in the early period after injection of the hippurate. The UC for each kidney was defined as the count-rate over its ROI at a time shorter than the peak in the renoscintigraphic curve divided by the integral of the count-rate curve over the "blood"-ROI. A procedure for normalization of both curves against each other was also developed. The total kidney clearance of the hippurate was determined from the function of plasma activity concentration vs. time after a single injection; the determinations were made at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min after intravenous administration of 131I-o-hippurate and the best-fit curve was obtained by means of the least-square method. When the UC was related to the absolute value of the clearance a positive linear correlation was found (r = 0.922, ρ > 0.99). Using this regression equation the clearance could be estimated in reverse from the uptake coefficient calculated solely on the basis of the renoscintigraphic curves without blood sampling. The errors of the estimate are compatible with the requirement of a fast appraisal of renal function for purposes of clinical diagknosis.

In this study, two-phase asymmetric peristaltic Carreau-Yasuda nanofluid flow in a vertical and tapered wavy channel is demonstrated and the mixed heat transfer analysis is considered for it. For the modeling, two-phase method is considered to be able to study the nanoparticles concentration as a separate phase. Also it is assumed that peristaltic waves travel along X-axis at a constant speed, c. Furthermore, constant temperatures and constant nanoparticle concentrations are considered for both, left and right walls. This study aims at an analytical solution of the problem by means of least square method (LSM) using the Maple 15.0 mathematical software. Numerical outcomes will be compared. Finally, the effects of most important parameters (Weissenberg number, Prandtl number, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, local temperature and nanoparticle Grashof numbers) on the velocities, temperature and nanoparticles concentration functions are presented. As an important outcome, on the left side of the channel, increasing the Grashof numbers leads to a reduction in velocity profiles, while on the right side, it is the other way around.

This paper deals with the minimal-cost control of the modified activated sludge process with varying level of wastewater in the aerator tank. The model-based adaptive controller of the effluent substrate concentration, basing on the substrate consumption rate and manipulating the effluent flow rate outcoming from the aerator tank, is proposed and its performance is compared with conventional PI controller and open loop behavior. Since the substrate consumption rate is not measurable on-line, the estimation procedure on the basis of the least-square method is suggested. Finally, it is proved that cooperation of the DO concentration controller with the adaptive controller of the effluent substrate concentration allows the process to be operated at minimum costs (low consumption of aeration energy).
