The sand slurry flow in a cylindrical pipe is investigated using the Ostwald de Waele model. The dependence of the fluid flow rate on the pressure drop is determined, dependencies for the radial distribution of velocity and effective viscosity of flow are obtained. It is shown that the distribution of effective viscosity is characterized by a monotonic increase as it approaches the pipe walls. As the consistency increases, the mechanical energy dissipation of the flow also increases leading to an increase in hydraulic resistance. During the flow of dilatant media with the low nonlinearity index, the hydraulic resistance decreases with increasing pressure drop. When this index is 2, the hydraulic resistance does not depend on the pressure drop and is determined only by the liquid properties and the channel size. At highe values of the nonlinearity index, the increased pressure drop leads to an increase in hydraulic resistance. Keywords

This paper deals with the flow of bitumen binder in a cylindrical tube described by the Hershel-Bulkley fluid. The dependence is suggested for the fluid flow rate and the pressure drop. Dependences are also determined for the radial velocity distribution and effective viscosity. It is found that at a low pressure drop, the non-Newtonian properties of the medium lead to a significant hydraulic resistance due to the internal structure. With an increase in the pressure drop, the hydraulic resistance of the flow decreases.

This paper studies the bitumen binder flow in terms of the Shvedov-Bingham model in a cylindrical tube. The dependence of the fluid flow rate on pressure drop is determined as well as the dependences between the radial velocity distribution and effective flow viscosity. Near the wall, the effective viscosity is low. However, in the vicinity of the rigid zone, a significant increase in the effective viscosity is observed. With increasing strain rates the effective viscosity decreases, which is explained by the destruction of the medium microstructure. With the pressure drop, the size of the hard zone decreases. With the increasing yield stress the fluid becomes less mobile, the rigid zone in the centre of the pipe increases in size. In this case, the velocity values decrease over the entire pipe section. Variation in the plastic viscosity does not affect the position of the rigid zone. It is shown that when the Bingam number Bn < 0.1, the non-Newtonian properties of the flow can be ignored. In this case, the Newtonian flow with viscosity mpl should be considered with an accuracy sufficient for engineering calculations.

Abstract In the course of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) tank waste retrieval, immobilization, and disposal activities, high-level waste transfer lines have the potential to become plugged. In response to DOE’s needs, Florida International University’s Hemispheric Center for Environmental Technology (FIU-HCET) is studying the mechanism and behavior of pipeline plugging to determine the pipeline operating conditions for safe slurry transport. Transport behavior of multi-species slurry has been studied in a 1-in O.D. pipeline flow loop. The slurry was a five-species mixture of Fe2O3, Al2O3, MnO2, Ni2O3, and SiO2, which simulated actual waste at the Savannah River DOE site. The relationship between the pressure drop in the straight horizontal sections of the flow loop and the mean slurry flow velocity was determined for two solids volume concentrations of 5.2 and 7.8%. Critical deposition velocity was measured from visual observations. An existing empirical model that predicts the pressure gradient for a single-species slurry flow in a horizontal pipeline was used to describe the pressure drop data.

Here, we consider the walking gait patterns. And we presented a hybrid model for a passive 2D walker with knees and point feet. The dynamics of this model were fully derived analytically. We have also proposed virtual coupling control laws. The control strategy is formed by taking into account the features of mechanical energy dissipation and restoration. And we also prove some walking rules maybe true.

The energy dissipated properties of normal and decalcified femur, rib and scapula bones of animals ox and camel have been studied by uniform bending technique. A hysteresis curve has been observed between the elevation in bone and load applied. It is observed that the energy dissipated as calculated from the hysteresis loop for rib is more than that of femur and scapula of ox and camel. It has been observed that the dissipation of energy in normal bone is less than that of decalcified bone under the same condition of applied load. The highest energy dissipation was observed in case of rib bone of camel compared to that of any other bone, rib of camel and scapula of ox dissipates maximum energy than femur bones. The study suggests that this technique is simple, elegant and inexpensive besides accurate in determining viscoelastic properties of bone.
