Advances are being made in the simulation of granular material, such that billion- body simulations are, perhaps, feasible using a combination of existing hardware and new modeling software technology. This capability is predicted to lead to a better understanding of granular materials, contributing to many areas of research. However, these capabilities are only useful if they are shown to agree well with reality. Beginning at a simple level, a study was conducted to compare the simulation of primitive joints in the Chrono::Engine simulation package with the MSC/ADAMS commercial software package. This simple effort provides a measure for the accuracy with which the software models the interaction of a joint and one or two bodies. This allows more complex analyses to be carried out with knowledge of the software’s accuracy at this level.

Scripting Language

To better understand the behaviors and structural dynamics of proteins within a cell, novel software tools are being developed that can create molecular animations based on the findings of structural biology. This study proposes our method developed based on our prototypes to detect collisions and examine the soft-body dynamics of molecular models. The code was implemented with a software development toolkit for rigid-body dynamics simulation and a three-dimensional graphics library. The essential functions of the target software system included the basic molecular modeling environment, collision detection in the molecular models, and physical simulations of the movement of the model. Taking advantage of recent software technologies such as physics simulation modules and interpreted scripting language, the functions required for accurate and meaningful molecular animation were implemented efficiently.

We present a new concept of the thermoelectric structure that generates microwave and terahertz signals when illuminated by femtosecond optical pulses. The structure consists of a series array of capacitively coupled thermocouples. The array acts as a hybrid type microwave transmission line with anomalous dispersion and phase velocity higher than the velocity of light. This allows for adding up the responces from all the thermocouples in phase. The array is easily integrable with microstrip transmission lines. Dispersion curves obtained from both the lumped network scheme and numerical simulations are presented. The connection of the thermocouples is a composite right/left-handed transmission line, which can receive terahertz radiation from the transmission line ports. The radiation of the photon to the surface of the thermocouple structure causes a voltage difference with the bandwidth of terahertz. We examined a lossy composite right/left-handed transmission line to extract the circuit elements. The calculated properties of the design are extracted by employing commercial software package CST STUDIO SUITE.

Degradation Of Pollutants

Treatment of municipal effluents has long been a challenge for modern technologies combining high effectiveness of degradation of pollutants with low costs of the process. Hydrodynamic cavitation is a promising application in wastewater treatment due to its simple reactor design. In this work, for a system available in the laboratory a hydrodynamic reactor is designed based on literature recommendations. On the designed Venturi tube, two-dimensional numerical simulations were investigated by the means of CFD computations using the commercial software package, Ansys Fluent. The resulting cavitation bubbles were analysed at different inlet pressures.

Motor drive control is the major study field in the development of lunar rover. Based on the double-closed DC loop adjustable-speed system, a motor drive simulation module using a position recursive PID control algorithm is developed, which is integrated into the multi-body dynamics simulation system, to carry out the whole lunar rover simulation. And the cruise process of lunar rover locomotion in the complex lunar terrain is simulated in a virtual environment.
