Wind field calculation is a research focus for wind disaster prevention in Civil Engineering. A new finite element procedure using flow-condition-based interpolation method combined with splitting algorithm is proposed in the paper. It used the analytical solution of one-dimensional advection–diffusion equation, and naturally introduced upwind effect in element interpolation functions. Further, combined with splitting algorithm, the element interpolation functions of velocity and pressure have concise format without meet Babuska-Brezzi condition. A two dimension four-node bilateral fluid element was constructed using flow-condition-based interpolation method and a corresponding program was developed. The solution procedure was discussed in detail and the numerical example solution was given to illustrate the capabilities of the procedure

Coastline has different geographical bending characteristics in different coastal geomorphic regions. The existing fractal interpolation methods for coastline mostly focus on how to simulate its fractal characteristic but neglect the geographical bending characteristic. This study presents an improved controlled fractal inter polation method based on one-dimensional Random Midpoint Displacement (RMD) that aims to preserve both the bending characteristics and fractal characteristics of coastline. First, the coastline is divided into sev eral parts based on its bending characteristics, in order to conserve the geographical bending struc ture of the coastline and change the uncontrollable general fractal interpolation into a combination of sev er al piece-wise interpolation units. Second, the fractal interpolation function of one-dimensional RMD is used for each divided bending unit of the coastline, and the parameters of RMD function are restricted by the con straints of each unit bending characteristics. Third, the results of fractal interpolation of each unit are linked together in proper order to obtain the approximate coastline. The experiments show that this method can maintain the geographical bending characteristics and fractal characteristics of coastline, and when the ratio of target scale to the original scale is not more than 3 times, the accuracy of interpolation spatial coor di nates can meet the quality requirements of spatial data.

The Several numerical techniques have been developed and compared for solving the one-dimensional and three-dimentional advection-diffusion equation with constant coefficients. the subject has played very important roles to fluid dynamics as well as many other field of science and engineering. In this article, we will be presenting the of n-dimentional and we neglect the numerical examples.

A one-dimensional isothermal flow is induced by a step change in the pressure at the boundary of a semi-infinite medium. The early flow is inertia-dominated, in accordance with Ergun’s equation, and is self-similar in the variable x/t3. The late flow is viscous-dominated, in accordance with Darcy’s law, and is self-similar in the variable x/t. Comprehensive numerical results are presented for both of these asymptotic regimes and also for the intermediate transition period which is governed by Forchheimer’s equation. The only explicit parameter is the pressure ratio, N, which is varied from N → ∞ (strong gas-compression), through N → 1 (constant compressibility liquid), to N → 0 (strong gas-rarefaction). The solution procedure is based on a generalized separation-of-variables approach which should also be useful in other problems which possess self-similar asymptotic solutions both at early times and at late times.

An analytical model of the interaction of a fibre tangle with an airflow is proposed. This model replaces the discrete fibres by a continuum medium with a non-linear stress-strain law. The governing equations have been examined for one-dimensional unsteady flow configurations and have been found to possess five characteristic directions.A numerical-solution procedure, based upon the method of characteristics, has been outlined and applied to the flow within a dilation chamber. A fibre sample is located at the centre of the chamber, which is alternately pressurized and depressurized.

AbstractA semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) method is presented for constructing solutions for an arbitrarily loaded cylinder, whose cross-section is general in terms of its shape and the number of distinct, perfectly bonded elastic, rectilinear anisotropic materials. The surface traction and body force loads need to be expressed in a power series of the axial coordinate. Linear three-dimensional theory is used. For a homogeneous isotropic cylinder, it is known as the Almansi-Michell problem, and the SAFE analysis herein is an extension to inhomogeneous, anisotropic bodies. By SAFE, the cross-section is discretized. The displacement field is expressed by interpolation functions over the cross-section and by analytical functions axially. The method herein is an extension of the authors' previous method cylinder with a general cross-section. Herein, the SAFE solution procedure is given and numerical examples will be presented.

We perform a spectral analysis of the dispersive and dissipative properties of two time-splitting procedures, namely, locally one-dimensional (LOD) Lax-Wendroff and LOD (1, 5) [9] for the numerical solution of the 2D advection-diffusion equation. We solve a 2D numerical experiment described by an advection-diffusion partial differential equation with specified initial and boundary conditions for which the exact solution is known. Some errors are computed, namely, the error rate with respect to theL1norm, dispersion and dissipation errors. Lastly, an optimization technique is implemented to find the optimal value of temporal step size that minimizes the dispersion error for both schemes when the spatial step is chosen as 0.025, and this is validated by numerical experiments.
