The application of wall acoustic lining is a major factor in the reduction of aircraft engine noise. The extended Helmholtz Resonator (EHR) impedance model is widely used since it is representative of the behavior of realistic liners over a wide range of frequencies. Its application in time domain CAA methods by means of [Formula: see text]-transform has been the subject of several papers. In contrast to standard liner modeling in time domain CAA, which consists in imposing a boundary condition modeling both the cavities and the perforated sheet of the liner, an alternative approach involves adding the cavities to the computational domain and imposing a condition between these cavities and the duct domain to model the resistive sheet. However, the original method may not be used for broadband acoustics since it implements an impedance condition with frequency independent resistance. This paper describes an extension of this method to implement the EHR impedance model in a time domain CAA method.

Summary Three-dimensional controlled-source electromagnetic data is often computed directly in the domain of interest, either in the frequency domain or in the time domain. Computing it in one domain and transforming it via a Fourier transform to the other domain is a viable alternative. It requires the evaluation of many responses in the computational domain if standard Fourier transforms are used. This can make it prohibitively expensive if the kernel is time-consuming as is the case in three-dimensional electromagnetic modelling. The speed of such modelling that is obtained through a transform is defined by three key points: solver, method and implementation of the Fourier transform, and gridding. The faster the solver, the faster modelling will be. It is important that the solver is robust over a wide range of values (frequencies or times). The method should require as few kernel evaluations as possible while remaining robust. As the frequency and time ranges span many orders of magnitude, the required values are ideally equally spaced on a logarithmic scale. The proposed fast method uses either the digital linear filter method or the logarithmic fast Fourier transform together with a careful selection of evaluation points and interpolation. In frequency-to-time domain tests this methodology requires typically 15 to 20 frequencies to cover a wide range of offsets. The gridding should be frequency- or time-dependent, which is accomplished by making it a function of skin depth. Optimising for the least number of required cells should be combined with optimising for computational speed. Looking carefully at these points results in much smaller computation times with speedup factors of ten or more over previous methods. A computation in one domain followed by transformation can therefore be an alternative to computation in the other domain domain if the required evaluation points and the corresponding grids are carefully chosen.

The grid integration of renewable energy sources interfaced through power electronic converters is undergoing a significant acceleration to meet environmental and political targets. The rapid deployment of converters brings new challenges in ensuring robustness, transient stability, among others. In order to enhance transient stability, transmission system operators established network grid code requirements for converter-based generators to support the primary control task during faults. A critical factor in terms of implementing grid codes is the control strategy of the grid-side converters. Grid-forming converters are a promising solution which could perform properly in a weak-grid condition as well as in an islanded operation. In order to ensure grid code compliance, a wide range of transient stability studies is required. Time-domain simulations are common practice for that purpose. However, performing traditional monolithic time domain simulations (single solver, single domain) on a converter-dominated power system is a very complex and computationally intensive task. In this paper, a co-simulation approach using the mosaik framework is applied on a power system with grid-forming converters. A validation workflow is proposed to verify the co-simulation framework. The results of comprehensive simulation studies show a proof of concept for the applicability of this co-simulation approach to evaluate the transient stability of a dominant grid-forming converter-based power system.

Two-dimensional turbulent heat transfer between a series of parallel plates with surface mounted discrete block heat sources was studied numerically. The computational domain was subjected to periodic conditions in the streamwise direction and repeated conditions in the cross-stream direction (Double Cyclic). The second source term was included in the energy equation to facilitate the correct prediction of a periodically fully developed temperature field. These channels resemble cooling passages in electronic equipment. The k–ε model was used for turbulent closure and calculations were made for a wide range of independent parameters (Re, Ks/Kf, s/w, d/w, and h/w). The governing equations were solved by using a finite volume technique. The numerical procedure and implementation of the k–ε model was validated by comparing numerical predictions with published experimental data (Wirtz and Chen, 1991; Sparrow et al., 1982) for a single channel with several surface mounted blocks. Computations were performed for a wide range of Reynolds numbers (5 × 104–4 × 105) and geometric parameters and for Pr = 0.7. Substrate conduction was found to reduce the block temperature by redistributing the heat flux and to reduce the overall thermal resistance of the module. It was also found that the increase in the Reynolds number decreased the thermal resistance. The study showed that the substrate conduction can be an important parameter in the design and analysis of cooling channels of electronic equipment. Finally, correlations for the friction factor (f) and average thermal resistance (R) in terms of independent parameters were developed.

This paper investigates the effect of gain and phase margins (GPMs) on the delay-dependent stability analysis of the pitch control system (PCS) of large wind turbines (LWTs) with time delays. A frequency-domain based exact method that takes into account both GPMs is utilized to determine stability delay margins in terms of system and controller parameters. A gain-phase margin tester (GPMT) is introduced to the PCS to take into GPMs in delay margin computation. For a wide range of proportional–integral controller gains, time delay values at which the PCS is both stable and have desired stability margin measured by GPMs are computed. The accuracy of stability delay margins is verified by an independent algorithm, Quasi-Polynomial Mapping Based Rootfinder (QPmR) and time-domain simulations. The time-domain simulation studies also indicate that delay margins must be determined considering GPMs to have a better dynamic performance in term of fast damping of oscillations, less overshoot and settling time.

The modern challenges for membrane separations in a wide range of processes require more sophisticated approaches for the detection and remediation of fouling, i.e., the association of solutes, particulate matter, and colloids on and/or within a membrane. Most commonly, fouling is assessed from inferred measurements of permeation rate and/or permeate quality. The use of acoustic techniques for direct observations of membrane fouling was introduced over 10 years ago. We summarize here, recent developments in ultrasonic reflectometry that use both time-domain and frequency-domain spectra for noninvasive, real-time assessments of fouling in a variety of module configurations and geometries. In addition, we describe recent developments and applications of scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) for post-mortem characterization of membranes with particular emphasis on biofouling.

For pipe lay operations parameters like heading and position of the lay vessel, lay-back and information about feeding of joints are usually collected and stored by the contractor. Many lay vessels are also equipped with a MRU unit for measurements of dynamic vessel motions, and in some cases the current profile is also monitored. This is especially the case for pipes with low bending stiffness and low ratio between weight and drag diameter (i.e. small pipe diameter) where current is important for the configuration of the pipe catenary. Together with the seabed these parameters constitutes the boundary conditions for a nonlinear time domain analysis of the lay operation. Such an analysis approach will have a wide range of application areas, from online monitoring to realistic back-calculation of a lay operation. During recent year’s work with the Ormen Lange field (see Figure 1) Marintek has developed a new generation of 3D pipeline analysis tools. Ormen Lange is the largest natural gas field on the Norwegian continental shelf. The field is situated 120 km northwest of Kristiansund. The seabed depths in the reservoir area vary between 800–1100m, and the terrain is very rough due to remnants from the Storegga slide. In the period 2006–2007 two 30" import lines, two MEG lines, and two umbilicals were installed at the Ormen Lange field. In the present paper monitored data collected during the installation of the 30" pipelines are used to back-calculate the lay operation. The agreement between observed and calculated lay parameters are reported and discussed.

In the work, an original method and a special modified device is presented enabling to determine welding conditions of hard deformable aluminium alloys. The main advantage of the proposed method is that it simulates conditions occurring in the welding chamber of the porthole dies. The weldability tests were performed for 5754 (3,5% Mg) and 5019 (5,5% Mg) alloys, in a wide range of temperatures and pressures. The microstructure and joints strength were examined. The welding conditions of AlMg alloys that allowed obtaining high-quality joints were determined. The obtained welding stress values will be the basis for extrusion porthole die design.

The Time Domain

A numerical method is presented by which the transient electromagnetic response of a two‐dimensional (2-D) conductor, embedded in a conductive host rock and excited by a rectangular current loop, can be modeled. This 2.5-D modeling problem has been formulated in the time domain in terms of a vector diffusion equation for the scattered magnetic induction, which is Fourier transformed into the spatial wavenumber domain in the strike direction of the conductor. To confine the region of solution of the diffusion equation to the conductive earth, boundary values for the components of the magnetic induction on the ground surface have been calculated by means of an integral transform of the vertical component of the magnetic induction at the air‐earth interface. The system of parabolic differential equations for the three magnetic components has been integrated for 9 to 15 discrete spatial wavenumbers ranging from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] using an implicit homogeneous finite‐difference scheme. The discretization of the differential equations on a grid representing a cross‐section of the conductive earth results in a large, sparse system of linear equations, which is solved by the successive overrelaxation method. The three‐dimensional (3-D) response has been computed by an inverse Fourier transformation of the cubic spline interpolated scattered magnetic induction in the wavenumber domain using a digital filtering technique. To test the algorithm, responses have been computed for a two‐layered half‐space and a vertical prism embedded in a conductive host rock. These examples were then compared with results obtained analytically or numerically using frequency‐domain finite‐element and time‐domain integral equation methods. The new numerical procedure gives satisfactory results for a wide range of 2-D conductivity distributions with conductivity ratios exceeding 1:100, provided the grid is sufficiently refined at the corners of the conductivity anomalies.

Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy is a useful technique to characterize layered samples and thin films. It gives access to their optical properties and thickness. Such measurements are done in transmission, which requires access to the sample from opposite sides. In reality this is not always possible. In such cases, reflection measurements are the only option, but they are more difficult to implement. Here we propose a method to characterize films in reflection geometry using a polarimetric approach based on the identification of Brewster angle and modeling of the measured signal to extract the refractive index and thickness of the sample. The technique is demonstrated experimentally on an unsupported single layer thin film sample. The extracted optical properties and thickness were in good agreement with established transmission terahertz spectroscopy measurements. The new method has the potential to cover a wide range of applications, both for research and industrial purposes.
