It is known that a locally homogeneous manifold can be obtained from a locally conformally homogeneous (pseudo)Riemannian manifolds by a conformal deformation if the Weyl tensor (or the Schouten-Weyl tensor in the three-dimensional case) has a nonzero squared length. Thus, the problem arises of studying (pseudo)Riemannian locally homogeneous and locally conformally homogeneous manifolds, the Weyl tensor of which has zero squared length, and itself is not equal to zero (in this case, the Weyl tensor is called isotropic). One of the important aspects in the study of such manifolds is the study of the curvature operators on them, namely, the problem of restoring a (pseudo)Riemannian manifold from a given Ricci operator. The problem of the prescribed values of the Ricci operator on 3-dimensional locally homogeneous Riemannian manifolds has been solved by O. Kowalski and S. Nikcevic. Analogous results for the one-dimensional and sectional curvature operators were obtained by D.N. Oskorbin, E.D. Rodionov, and O.P Khromova. This paper is devoted to the description of an example of studying the problem of the prescribed Ricci operator for four-dimensional locally homogeneous (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds with a nontrivial isotropy subgroup and isotropic Weyl tensor.

The problem of restoring a (pseudo)Riemannian manifold  from a given Ricci operator was studied in the papers of many mathematicians. This problem was solved by O. Kowalski and S. Nikcevic for the case of three-dimensional locally homogeneous Riemannian manifolds. The work of G. Calvaruso and O. Kowalski contains the answer to the question above for the case of three –dimensional locally homogeneous Lorentzian manifolds. For the four-dimensional case, similar studies were carried out only in the case of Lie groups with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. The works of A.G. Kremlyov and Yu.G. Nikonorov presented the possible signatures of the eigenvalues of the Ricci operator. However, the question of recovering a four-dimensional Lie group with a left-invariant Riemannian metric from a given Ricci operator remains open. This paper is devoted to the study of the eigenvalues of the Ricci operator on four-dimensional locally homogeneous (pseudo)Riemannian manifolds with a four-dimensional isotropy subgroup. An algorithm for calculating the eigenvalues of the Ricci operator is presented. A theorem on the restoration of such manifolds from a given Ricci operator is proved. It is established that such possibility can happen only in the case when the prescribed operator is diagonalizable and has a unique eigenvalue of multiplicity four.

The relation between authoritarianism and social dominance orientation was analyzed, with authoritarianism measured using a three-dimensional scale. The implicit multidimensional structure (authoritarian submission, conventionalism, authoritarian aggression) of Altemeyer’s (1981, 1988) conceptualization of authoritarianism is inconsistent with its one-dimensional methodological operationalization. The dimensionality of authoritarianism was investigated using confirmatory factor analysis in a sample of 713 university students. As hypothesized, the three-factor model fit the data significantly better than the one-factor model. Regression analyses revealed that only authoritarian aggression was related to social dominance orientation. That is, only intolerance of deviance was related to high social dominance, whereas submissiveness was not.

<p>The study of thermodynamic and biochemical processes of inland water objects using one- and three-dimensional RANS numerical models was carried out both for idealized water bodies and using measurements data. The need to take into account seiche oscillations to correctly reproduce the deepening of the upper mixed layer in one-dimensional (vertical) models is demonstrated. We considered the one-dimensional LAKE model [1] and the three-dimensional model [2, 3, 4] developed at the Research Computing Center of Moscow State University on the basis of a hydrodynamic code combining DNS/LES/RANS approaches for calculating geophysical turbulent flows. The three-dimensional model was supplemented by the equations for calculating biochemical substances by analogy with the one-dimensional biochemistry equations used in the LAKE model. The effect of mixing processes on the distribution of concentration of greenhouse gases, in particular, methane and oxygen, was studied.</p><p>The work was supported by grants of the RF President’s Grant for Young Scientists (MK-1867.2020.5, MD-1850.2020.5) and by the RFBR (19-05-00249, 20-05-00776). </p><p>1.

This study proposes a methodology for the calibration of combined sewer overflow (CSO), incorporating the results of the three-dimensional ANSYS CFX model in the SWMM one-dimensional model. The procedure consists of constructing calibration curves in ANSYS CFX that relate the input flow to the CSO with the overflow, to then incorporate them into the SWMM model. The results obtained show that the behavior of the flow over the crest of the overflow weir varies in space and time. Therefore, the flow of entry to the CSO and the flow of excesses maintain a non-linear relationship, contrary to the results obtained in the one-dimensional model. However, the uncertainty associated with the idealization of flow methodologies in one dimension is reduced under the SWMM model with kinematic wave conditions and simulating CSO from curves obtained in ANSYS CFX. The result obtained facilitates the calibration of combined sewer networks for permanent or non-permanent flow conditions, by means of the construction of curves in a three-dimensional model, especially when the information collected in situ is limited.

A three-dimensional composite model of heart muscle is proposed, consisting of one-dimensional (uniaxial) active contractile filaments embedded in a passive elastic binder. Equations are developed which relate the force developed by the filaments to the local tissue stress. An approximate analysis is employed to determine the time variation of the contractile filament stress throughout the cardiac cycle from catheterization data. Results from 15 patients with normal left ventricles demonstrate that the stress developed by the contractile filaments is up to 25 percent more tensile than the wall stress, and that the binder stress is compressive during most of systole. In contrast, the one-dimensional lumped parameter muscle models previously employed predict active (CE) stresses less tensile than the wall stress and binder (PE) stresses that are tensile. We conclude that the use of a one-dimensional muscle model results in a significant underestimation of the active force generation required for pressure development and the power requirements for ejection. Prior studies relating muscle work and power to ventricular oxygen consumption should be re-examined in this light.

Abstract Despite a wealth of sophisticated CFD-methods, most designs are still based on one-dimensional and two-dimensional inviscid analytical tools. In such methods, realistic loss and angle assessment are indeed critical in order to arrive at correct loading, flow coefficient and reaction. The selected values are normally retained through the detailed design sequence for each iteration. This means that the throat sizing and hence the gauge angle is largely based on the early design work within the through-flow environment. Even one-degree error in angle estimation will turn into a rather large capacity error. For most designs, the exchange rate between capacity and gauge angle is on the order of 3–5 percent, per degree exit angle. In a previous publication, a methodology and equations were presented to assess the exit flow in an axial turbine blade row by Mamaev in Russian nomenclature and the tangential coordinate system. The approach, provided a unified and flow-physics based method for assessing exit angles from the geometry features like gauge angle, uncovered turning and flow features like Laval number, etc. Analysis of those formulas showed good agreement with physical flow pattern in real cascades for sub and transonic blade cascades. In this work, the same basic principal procedure is followed by employing the more international agreed nomenclature of blades such as an axial reference plane and Mach number. In the current work, the one-dimensional analysis results were compared with the three dimensional numerical modelling of a full annulus two-stage turbine. Analysis of the results showed the inherent unsteadiness specially outside the rotor blade cascades, however, comparison of the mass averaged exit angle with the one dimensional analysis showed satisfactory agreement.
