A model for predicting 3-D beach changes in an extensive area including beach and backshore areas was developed, taking the effects due to both waves and windblown sand into account. In the calculation of beach changes, the BG model (a model for predicting beach changes based on Bagnold's concept) was employed, and a cellular automaton method was used to calculate the backshore changes due to the effect of windblown sand. To validate the model applicability, a reproduction calculation was carried out for the beach formed at the corner of Futtsu new port. The calculation results were in good agreement with the measurement results.Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): https://youtu.be/905aRlNAOjA

On a sand dune, a blowout is often formed owing to wind effect. The formation of a blowout was observed on November 25, 2016 at the Node coast facing the Pacific Ocean, where a blowout has been formed to leave a concave topography. Then, a model for predicting the formation of a blowout was developed using a cellular automaton method, in which two important factors of saltation and avalanche were taken into account. The results of the numerical simulation were compared with the measured results on the Node coast, and the predicted and measured shapes of the blowout were in good agreement. Also, it was found that the direction of the beach access must be extended in the direction normal to the direction of prevailing wind to prevent blowout formation.

A streamline curvature method for calculating S1 surface flow in turbines is presented. The authors propose a simple method in which a domain of calculation can be changed into an orderly rectangle without making coordinate transformations. Calculation results obtained on subsonic and transonic turbine cascades have been compared with those of experiment and another theory. Good agreement has been found. When calculating blade-to-blade flow velocity at subsonic speed, a function approximation technique can be used in lieu of iteration method in order to reduce calculation time. If the calculated flow section is of a mixed (subsonic-supersonic) flow type, a Boolean expression obtained from the truth table of flow states is proposed to judge the integrated character of the mixed flow section. Similarly, another Boolean expression is used to determine whether there exists a “choking” of the relevant section. Periodical conditions are satisfied by iterating the first-order derivative of stagnation streamline, which is formed simultaneously. It can be proved that the stagnation streamline formed in this way is unique.

Roll wear model for Hot Strip Mill (HSM) was researched and the factors affect roll wear are analyzed. The simulation program was compiled by program visual C++ language and work roll wear was calculated according to the rolling schedule. Calculation results shows that roll wear like box shape. Strip width affects roll wear clearly. The strip length is one of the important issues which affect roll wear. Work roll wear of F7 top roll middle get to 280μm after a rolling schedule. Roll wear curve calculated by program were good agreement with the wear curve got by high-precision grinder. The results show that the roll wear model has high accuracy.

The bearing capacities of one-way reinforced concrete beams with elastic supports are investigated in this paper. According to the nonlinear characteristics of the beams, the basic equations based on plastic theory of concrete are derived by considering the in-plane force effects that aroused by the constraints of supports when the beams deforming. It is indicated that the calculation results are in good agreement with experimental datum, and the influences of different supports on the bearing capacities of the beams are quantitatively given for the first time.

In the present work Miedema model has been developed, and the formation enthalpy of Mg-Zn alloys and the activity curve of Zn in Mg-Zn alloy at 1000K have been calculated according to the Miedema model. The calculation results showed that the formation enthalpy of Mg-Zn was small, and the excess entropy attributes a lot to the result. When excess enthopy was considered, the calculation results were found to be in good agreement with the experimental values.
