Abstract:
From the technical and economic perspectives, it is imperative that irrigation systems have extensive durability and high uniformity of application. The objective of this study was to compare the hydraulic performance of new and used (9 years of use with 4265 h of operation) self-compensating micro-sprinklers of the SuperNet LR model. The study was performed in a laboratory to evaluate flow in the range of pressure compensation, coefficient of manufacturing variation or discharge (CVF and CVQ), wetting pattern, distribution uniformity coefficient (DUC), and Christiansen uniformity coefficient (CUC).The new and used micro-sprinklers did not differ in CVF and CVQ, and were rated as excellent; they also did not differ in CUC or DUC. The coverage diameters of the new and used micro-sprinklers were the same as those given in the manufacturer’s catalog. There were no significant differences in the flow rates of the new and used micro-sprinklers when subjected to the same pressure, but significant differences in flow rate were observed within the range of pressure compensation. When installed in an irrigation system, the useful life of micro-sprinklers can be considered to be greater than 9 years with 4265 h of operation.

Abstract:
The present paper identifies a variety of conceptual schemes that have emerged within informing science and consider how they might be applied to fake news. The paper begins with a brief overview of fake news. This is followed presentations of various models identified in a two-volume survey of informing science. The models presented include those dealing with extrinsic (i.e., environmental) complexity, informing transitions, and individual resonance. The potential implications for informing science research into fake news are discussed and questions that may warrant future research are raised. The paper then concludes by describing what current informing science may already be telling us about fake news, its spread and its influence. Through its analysis of the fake news and informing science literature, a number of questions are identified where informing science can possibly contribute to our understanding of fake news. These include: • Does fake news need to disinform its clients if it is to be effective? • Why are certain groups of individuals particularly credible when it comes to communicating fake news? • Under what circumstances will the emotional and social motivations to accept fake news exceed our concern for its truth? • How does the nature of the fake news content and objectives impact the disinformer’s choice of channel? • What are the circumstances under which radically transitional fake news might have an impact?

Nous proposons une nouvelle technique de mesure très simple dite technique d'imagerie linéaires d'ordre trois. L'objet optique choisi détermine une configuration expérimentale Zernike non linéaire, dans un système d'imagerie (4f) afin de mesurer les susceptibilités non équivalentes à un couplage de deux ondes dans un milieu non linéaire. La mesure de la distribution spatiale de l'intensité lumineuse des impulsions laser picosecondes à l'aide d'une caméra CCD, améliore la précision et simplifie les mesures. Le principe de mesure est base sur la comparaison entre le profil d'intensité dans une image expérimentale et celui d'une image simulée. Afin de valider la méthode proposée, des mesures de susceptibilité ont été effectuées sur des matériaux de référence. Un bon accord est obtenu avec des précédentes mesures effectuées par différents auteurs. La méthode s'avère très intéressante par sa simplicité et par ses applications.

Evans, Gareth. "RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) : viral sensors that recognize Coxsackieviruses." Thesis, Cardiff University, 2012. http://orca.cf.ac.uk/42650/.

Full text
Abstract:
The innate immune system is a vital part of the body's defences against viral pathogens. RIG-I and MDA5 belong to the retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) family and function as cytoplasmic PRRs that are involved in the elimination of actively replicating RNA viruses. Their location and their differential responses to RNA viruses emphasises the complexity of the innate detection system. RIG-I and MDA5 contribute to antiviral signalling in different ways depending on the virus involved. Coxsackieviruses are positive sense, single-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the Enterovirus genus of the Picornaviridae family. They cause many serious diseases, including viral myocarditis (which can lead on to dilated cardiomyopathy), aseptic meningitis, and pancreatitis. In order to identify which RLR recognises these viruses and which RNA species triggers RLR activation during Coxsackievirus infection, viral ssRNA and replicative intermediates of Coxsackievirus RNA as well as synthetic dsRNA were used in this study. The results revealed that MDA5 recognises not the genomic ssRNA but the dsRNA generated by the replication of these viruses. Confocal microscopy provided unique evidence between the relationship of viral dsRNA and MDA5 while cytokine assays using HEK-MDA5 cells showed a strong immune response to Coxsackievirus and the dsRNA intermediates. This shows very strong evidence that MDA5 is a key sensor of the dsRNA intermediate of Coxsackieviruses. As RIG-Is role in Coxsackie recognition still needs to be verified Huh7 and Huh7.5.1 cells were used and showed no difference in immune response in the absence of RIG-I to Coxsackievirus infection, as well as the isolated ssRNA, suggesting that the VPg group present on the RNA blocks recognition. Furthermore immunoprecipitation experiments showed that in response to Coxsackievirus stimulation, RLRs homodimerise as well as heterodimerise with LGP2, potentially upregulating their activity as a possible mechanism for viral detection. The data presented here show a much clearer role for RLRs in Coxsackievirus infection, while opening new questions as to MDA5s role in the diseases caused by Coxsackieviruses, as well as the specifics behind dimerisation of the RLRs

Edozien, Leroy Chuma. "Protecting self-determination in healthcare : a comparative study of the consent model and a novel property model." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2013. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/4265/.

Full text
Abstract:
It is generally accepted in legal and bioethical discourse that the patient has a right to self-determination. The competent patient should be in a position to make informed decisions about his/her care. In practice, this is often not the case. Paternalism, the approach to medical practice that left decision-making in the hands of the doctor, is waning and it is increasingly recognised in both the legal and medical arenas that there are values other than medical factors which determine the choices that patients make. Unfortunately, these developments have not resulted in huge advances for patient self-determination. This is largely because the mechanism by which the law purports to protect self-determination – the consent model – has fundamental flaws that constrain its effectiveness. In the last three decades, various attempts have been made to reconceptualise consent on order to make it fit for purpose, but these have achieved only limited success. This thesis starts with the premise that it is often more productive to consider what an alternative model has to offer, than to persist with amelioration of a model that is fundamentally flawed. The limitations of the consent model are discussed and a novel model, the property model, is advocated. The theoretical underpinnings of this model and its structure are presented. Essentially, the patient’s bodily integrity is protected from unauthorised invasion, and his/her legitimate expectation to be provided with the relevant information and opportunity to enable him/her make an informed decision regarding treatment is taken to be a proprietary right. It is argued that the property model potentially overcomes the limitations of the consent model, including the obstacle caused by the requirement to prove causation in consent cases. The property model provides a means by which the patient’s right to self-determination can be recognised as a distinct legal right. The model does not create new rights, only seeking to afford stronger protection of an existing right. No constitutional, professional, or other conflict is generated by applying property analysis to patient self-determination. The model fits with the rights-based approach that the courts have evolved in UK consent cases, and is consistent with modern medical professionalism.

Dickerson, Andrew P. "Industrial conflict in Britain." Thesis, University of Warwick, 1992. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/4265/.

Full text
Abstract:
The economic analysis of conflict in Britain has previously concentrated on examining aggregate strike frequency. The thesis recognises the limitations of this approach and argues for the investigation of a broader definition of conflict and at a more disaggregated level. While weakly encompassing previous theoretical work, the principal objective is to establish the patterns and trends pertaining to wider set of measures of conflict in post-war Britain. The empirical investigation of these disaggregated dimensions of conflict and their inter-relationships appears to have previously received only very limited attention. Following a critique of the extant theoretical and empirical literature, the first substantive chapter examines the traditional aggregate- econometric models of strike frequency. These are shown to be unsatisfactory in a number of ways. The chapter then turns to the central issue of the procyclicality of strikes. It is shown that while the total number of strikes is only very loosely related to the cycle, strikes arising over the level of remuneration bear a much closer correspondence with the level of economic activity and this finding accords with many of the theoretical models that have been proposed for strike. activity. The chapter concludes with an examination of a cyclical-political model of strikes within which the impact of the recent reforms in labour legislation is also investigated. One of the central arguments of the thesis is that the emphasis on strike frequency is inappropriate. This is most clearly illustrated by the fact that while strike frequency fell by almost one quarter between 1980 and 1984, the incidence of strikes at the establishment level actually increased by 45%. An examination of the determinants of the incidence of conflict activity forms the basis of the second substantive chapter of the thesis. As a subsidiary theme, the complementary nature of strike and non-strike action is also explored. The next chapter investigates the ceteris paribus differences in strike probabilities between the public and private sectors. While the levels of strike incidence and frequency appear to be much higher in the public sector, much of the divergence is found to be a consequence of differences in the characteristics of the two sectors. Additionally, when weighted by employment and/or union coverage, strike frequency is found to be lower in the public sector and, moreover, each of these strikes tends to be shorter and involve fewer workers. The final substantive chapter looks at the impact of strikes on industry output and efficiency. The structure of the model is novel in that a production frontier is estimated without having recourse to an explicit functional form for the inefficiency component. This is due to the availability of a panel of data in which the fixed effects can be viewed as capturing both the inefficiency term as well as the industry fixed effect. A second stage estimation is then used to identify each industry's level of efficiency. While strikes do not appear to reduce output in aggregate, there is some evidence to suggest that those industries which incur a large number of short strikes do have their output significantly disrupted. This loss of output also serves to make these industries less efficient in general. Thus a major conclusion is that a disaggregated approach is necessary in order that the multi-dimensional nature of conflict and the sectoral diversity in the incidence of industrial action can be investigated in a satisfactory manner. Any new theories of conflict will need to encompass the empirical findings of the thesis.

Dyde, Richard Thomas. "Illusions of visual orientation : comparisons between perceptual and visuo-motor tasks." Thesis, Durham University, 2001. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/4265/.

Full text
Abstract:
The Milner and Goodale (1995) model of dual cortical visual systems suggests that, in the primate cortex, separate neural substrates dominate the tasks of visual perception and visuo-motor control. This model derives from a number of independent sources of evidence: anatomical, physiological and behavioural. Neuropsychological evidence in humans suggests that visual perception and visuo-motor control can be selectively impaired through damage to the ventral and dorsal visual streams respectively. Evidence has emerged that in the healthy human visual cortex, differentiable effects of visual illusions can be found between the two measures of perception and visuo- motor control. This evidence has been cited to support the Milner and Goodale (1995) model. The series of studies reported in this dissertation used a similar, but methodologically revised application of the illusion paradigm in the novel domain of orientation. Using two types of visual illusions, the simultaneous tilt illusion (STI) and the rod-and-frame illusion (RFI), a series of studies found patterns of association, dissociation and interaction that strongly support the Mihier and Goodale model. The critical issue, in terms of predicting the pattern of effects across perception and visuo-motor control tasks, was found to be the siting of the causal mechanisms underlying the illusion employed.

Full text
Abstract:
In cognitive radio (CR) systems, reliable spectrum sensing techniques are required in order to avoid interference to the primary users (PUs) of the spectrum. In this dissertation two spectrum sensing techniques are developed, and sensing time and power allocation are optimized in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) CR systems. The motivation of the first proposed spectrum sensing technique is that, in practice, CRs also have to cope with various types of non-Gaussian noise such as man-made impulsive noise, and co-channel interference. However, most of the existing literature on spectrum sensing only considers impairment by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). To address this issue, we propose an Lp-norm detector which has tunable parameters that can be adjusted for the underlying type of noise. We also propose an adaptive algorithm for optimization of the Lp-norm parameters which does not require any a priori knowledge of the noise statistics. The motivation for the second proposed spectrum sensing technique is that the signals transmitted by PUs often also contain known pilot symbols for synchronization and channel estimation purposes. Coherent correlation based spectrum sensing techniques can exploit these known symbols but waste the energy contained in the data symbols. Hence, while considering AWGN impairment, we propose a hybrid coherent/energy detection scheme which exploits both the pilot and the data symbols transmitted by the PU. Since the complexity of the globally optimal hybrid detection metric is very high, we develop a simple locally optimal hybrid metric, which turns out to be a linear combination of an energy detection metric and a correlation metric. While the proposed methods improve the accuracy of spectrum sensing, there exists a tradeoff between sensing time and transmission time for CR networks. In this thesis, we investigate this issue for conventional energy detection in MIMO CR networks. Specifically, we optimize the sensing threshold, sensing time, and transmit power of both single-band and multi-band MIMO CR systems for maximization of the opportunistic throughput under transmit power, probability of false alarm, and probability of detection constraints. We also develop efficient iterative algorithms for solving these non-convex optimization problems based on the concept of alternating optimization.

Falk, Carl Francis. "Is there cultural variability in implicit self-esteem?" Thesis, University of British Columbia, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/42655.

Full text
Abstract:
Cultural psychology research has cast doubt upon the assumption that self-enhancement motivations are universal – the majority of empirical research finding that those from East Asian cultural backgrounds self-enhance less than those from Western cultural backgrounds. However, measures of implicit self-esteem (ISE) – automatic and unconscious global self evaluations – do not often yield cultural differences. By using a diverse range of approaches, this dissertation seeks to shed light on the question of whether variability exists in implicit self-esteem across individuals from East Asian and Western cultural backgrounds. In Study 1, two different ISE measures provided divergent results regarding possible cultural variability in implicit self-esteem. In search for a valid measure of ISE, Study 2 simultaneously tested the convergent and predictive validity and cultural variation of popular and new ISE and explicit self-esteem measures. Since no single ISE measure in Study 2 was found to have adequate validity, Study 3 attempted to boost the validity of ISE measures. This was done based on the argument that ISE is better defined as a context-dependent/domain specific construct rather than a global self-evaluation, yet did not yield evidence in favour of the validity of any ISE measure. Supplementary analyses for Study 2 and the final two studies took an alternative approach to the problem of this dissertation and found cultural variability in phenomena theoretically connected to implicit self-esteem. In particular, cultural variability was evident in the theoretical correlates of implicit self-esteem from Study 2. Study 4 found evidence that cultural variability in the tendency to value an object after one owns the object (i.e., the endowment effect) is likely due in part to cultural variability in feelings about the self. Study 5 provided evidence that cultural variability exists in the tendency to display in-group favouritism after being arbitrarily assigned to a group (i.e., the minimal group effect), and that this cultural variability is explained in part by self-esteem. Taken together, these studies provide converging evidence that 1) implicit self-esteem measures are currently not a viable option for assessment of cultural variability, and 2) cultural variability in implicit self-esteem is likely.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Co-infection with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) worsens liver disease and decreases highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) tolerability. HAART usually includes two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and a protease inhibitor (PI) or a non-NRTI (NNRTI). NRTIs, particularly D-NRTIs, can induce mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion, deletions or mutations and lead to mitochondrial dysfunction. Multi-drug resistance protein-1 (MDR1) transports drugs across cellular membranes and may modulate toxicity. This project investigated HAART-related mitochondrial toxicity in liver tissue from HIV/HCV co-infected individuals and in human hepatic (HepG2) cells. Hypotheses: 1) Patients ON-HAART will have altered pathology scores, mtDNA quantity/deletions and mt-mRNA/MDR1-mRNA levels compared to patients OFF-HAART, and these will be influenced by type of HAART. 2) Treatment with the d-NRTI didanosine (ddI) and the PI saquinavir (SAQ) will alter HepG2 cell viability, population doubling time (PDT) and mtDNA content. Methods: Double-liver biopsies were collected from HIV/HCV co-infected individuals. One sample was used to score pathology, the other to extract DNA and RNA. mtDNA quantity, mt-mRNA and MDR1-mRNA levels were investigated by quantitative-PCR and mtDNA deletion by long-template PCR. Measurements were compared between individuals ON- versus OFF-HAART, on D-NRTI versus other NRTIs and on PI versus NNRTI. HepG2 cells were exposed to ddI and SAQ. Cell viability, PDT and mtDNA content were investigated. Results: Individuals ON-HAART (N=34) were similar in age, gender and HCV genotype to those OFF-HAART (N=18), and the groups did not differ significantly in pathology score, mtDNA quantity/deletions or mt-mRNA/MDR1-mRNA levels. The same was true for individuals on D-NRTI (N=6) versus other NRTIs (N=28) and on PI (N=17) versus NNRTI (N=8), except that individuals on PI were older (p=0.044) with higher mt-mRNA levels (p=0.015). Treatment of HepG2 cells with ddI lowered mtDNA content while SAQ decreased PDT. Addition of a second drug (SAQ or ddI) exacerbated these effects. ddI transiently decreased viability. Conclusions: The lack of differences between the ON- and OFF-HAART groups supports previous observations that HAART is not associated with increased hepatic mitochondrial toxicity although the cell culture findings suggest complementary toxicity upon co-exposure to ddI/SAQ. This study may inform management of HIV/HCV co-infected individuals.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation explores the inner-workings of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). Commonly known as the Tokyo trial, Tokyo tribunal, or Tokyo IMT, the IMTFE brought Japan’s wartime leadership to justice for aggression, crimes against humanity, and war crimes committed during World War II. Using rare sources in three languages from public and private collections in eight countries, this dissertation presents a multi-perspective experiential history of the IMTFE in operation. By placing the court in a distinct international moment that produced the United Nations, the Nuremberg trial, the Genocide Convention, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, among other outgrowths of global community, this work explores the IMTFE as both a groundbreaking judicial undertaking and a pioneering multilateral institution. Other scholars use overly reductive and judgmental constructs based on outside-looking-in perspectives to assess the court’s legal or moral legitimacy without appreciating or detailing its nuance and complexity. This dissertation prefers an inside-out view to explain the trial, not judge it. It describes the IMTFE as a collective endeavour and experience behind the scenes. Chapters review the personal, emotional, administrative, logistical, legal, political, and global dimensions of internationalism in action. Justice emerged as a contested encounter inside an involute web of intimate and external factors; transitional and transnational forces. Outside pressures – including postwar idealism, decolonisation, and the Cold War – meshed with and filtered through the intrinsic elements of ‘being international’ on the ground: social interaction, personal responses, and professional engagement. This ‘trial within’ influenced every aspect of IMTFE processes and outcomes, and the complexity of its internal dynamics best explains enduring criticism and memory of the court as a political trial or manifestation of victors’ justice. Although a unique historical moment, the IMTFE reveals basic, foundational truths about the essence of all international organisations and other modes of ambitious global governance. Ultimately, this dissertation uses the IMTFE to reinterpret modern internationalism as a complex, messy, and negotiated encounter rather than a staid set of promises and ideals: a process and experience that ultimately – inevitably – compromised principles for politics, and form for function.

Full text
Abstract:
British Columbia (BC) has become a major producer and exporter of wood pellets in the world. But the low energy density, the low water resistivity, the short shelf life, and the transportation cost impede the market development. Torrefaction, a thermal treatment without air or oxygen at 200-300°C, may provide a solution. The present study developed the torrefaction kinetics of BC softwood residues in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), studied the effect of the torrefaction reaction conditions on the properties of torrefied sawdust in a bench-scale fixed bed reactor and a bench-scale fluidized bed reactor, and identified the suitable conditions for making durable torrefied pellets in a press machine using torrefied samples. The weight loss of BC softwood residues significantly depended on the torrefaction temperature, the residence time, the particle size, and the oxygen concentration in the carrier gas. The weight loss could be approximately estimated from the weight loss of the chemical compositions. A two-component and one-step first order reaction kinetic model gave a good agreement with data over short residence time on the weight loss range of 0 to 40% at the temperature of 260-300°C. The heating value of torrefied pellets had a close relationship with the weight loss, increasing with increasing the severity of torrefaction. The torrefied samples were more difficult to be compressed into strong pellets under the same conditions as used for making the control (regular, untreated, conventional) pellets. More energy was needed for compacting torrefied samples into torrefied pellets. Increasing the die temperature and adding moisture into torrefied samples could improve the quality of torrefied pellets. The moisture content and density of torrefied pellets were lower than control pellets. Considering the quality of torrefied pellets, the optimal torrefaction conditions appeared to correspond to a weight loss of about 30%, which gave a 20% increase in pellet heating value and good hydrophobicity. The suitable densification conditions corresponded to a die temperature of 230°C, or over 110°C for torrefied samples conditioned to 10% moisture content.

Abstract:
The new wet gas compression technology provides a big potential for improved recovery from new and depleting gas/condensate fields. The current technology is based on centrifugal and axial compressor principles, which offers both the benefits of well-known concept design and the drawbacks of erosion, fouling, surge and instabilities. These concepts are based mainly on the design of a traditional compressor. This partly reflects performance requirements for handling pure gas and partly the lack of a fundamental understanding of wet gas behaviour through an impeller stage. Process and operating conditions may vary considerably during start-up at gas only or completely filled with addition of liquid with an inlet and/or discharge transient flow regime. An advanced wet gas test rig has been designed to identify the fundamental mechanisms related to wet gas compressor surge and instability behaviour. The open-loop wet gas rig includes a single overhung impeller, sections of visualisation for the wet gas impeller inlet, discharge and diffuser. The paper reviews and exposes the instabilities and surge flow behaviour at the impeller eye. Main focuses are the shift in inlet flow regime, the impact on overall compressor stage performance and the ability to handle wet transient inlet conditions. Any flow separation and/or slip across the inlet and impeller eye section will alter the established dry gas design guide lines for compressors. Visualisation of the impeller inlet during surge progression is the focal point of the present study. The investigation is supplemented by fast Fourier transform (FFT) analyses and high-speed measurements.

Abstract:
As distributed systems arise as the dominate approach in energy production, new and time-effective methods to study global configuration of small scale generation systems have to be discovered. This work proposes a comparison between two disparate approaches to microturbine modelling. The target system is a modified Turbec T100 microturbine coupled with an external vessel, which aims to simulate the dynamic global behavior of a fuel cell gas turbine hybrid system generator. The first model is based on first principles with ordinary differential equations to capture the dynamic performance of the turbine and it is developed with Matlab/Simulink environment. The second model is based on a simplified-physics time constant approach and it is developed with Excel/Visual Basic software, thus aiming at a viable tool for distributed applications, despite any lose in accuracy. Both models have been verified against the experimental data of the microturbine test rig, and compared in terms of computational efforts, modelling flexibility, prediction accuracy.

Full text
Abstract:
Recent progresses on the new Nickel based thermocouples for high temperature applications developed at the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy of the University of Cambridge are described in this paper. Isothermal drift at temperatures above 1000°C as a function of the thermocouple diameter has been studied for both conventional Nickel based thermocouples and the new Nickel based thermocouple. The new Nickel based thermocouple experiences a much reduced drift compared to conventional sensors. Tests in thermal cyclic conditions have been undertaken on conventional and new Nickel based thermocouples, showing a clear improvement for the new sensors at temperatures both higher and lower than 1000°C. The improvements achievable with the new Nickel based thermocouple in both isothermal and thermal cycling conditions suggest that the new sensor can be used at high temperatures, where current conventional sensors are not reliable, as well as at temperatures lower than 1000°C with improved performance compared to conventional sensors.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper proposes a dynamic simplified approach to model a Heat Recovery Steam Generator of a Gas Turbine Combined Cycle (GTCC) and its validation against field data. The adopted framework begins with some physical considerations on global HRSG structure, and then focuses on a specific application for a real plant, i.e. a 390 MW multi-shaft combined cycle based on the AEN94.3 A4 frame. Moreover the model embodies some parameters, which are easily derived from historical data to enhance the forecasting capabilities of the software, resulting in a hybrid model which covers a high range of working conditions. The whole model is designed to run in Excel/Visual Basic environment to allow for extended use by people who have limited experience in advanced modelling software. The model so created has been handled through a training process based on 10 days of experimental data, in order to create the basis for true system flexibility. Therefore, the feasibility of this approach has been verified using a Gas Turbine (GT) load profile accomplished in everyday working operations and validating the results against field data.

Full text
Abstract:
Gas turbine engines must withstand severe thermo-mechanical conditions during present-day load operation, characterized by cyclic transients and long dwell times. Indeed engine components are subject to thermal transient conditions, thermo-mechanical strain and stress fields; those are not easily measurable during operation, making calculations hardly confirmable. All these operational factors can lead a turbine component life reduction, finally increasing lifetime costs. The developed approach has been based on several calculations, such as thermal and FEM stress evaluation on the rotor components, tuned or validated by different field measurements carried out by thermocouples in the rotor core and the pre-tightening load variation of tie-rod. Transient disks and tie-rod temperatures (calculated by an in-house Secondary Air System code) have been tuned on experimental data. Thus, for rotor thermo-mechanical analysis more reliable boundary conditions have been provided. Rotor FEM analysis has been finally checked comparing the variation of the tie-bolt tension (calculated by FEM analysis) with the experimental behaviour observed during different operating conditions.

In ASME Turbo Expo 2015: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/gt2015-42656.

Full text
Abstract:
A new formulation of the mixing plane boundary condition to analyze the steady state interaction between adjacent rows of a turbomachine, used in conjunction with steady two-dimensional non-reflecting boundary conditions, is presented. Existing mixing plane formulations rely on the differences between some variables at the rows that conform the mixing plane to determine the boundary condition. These differences are driven to zero as the case is converged to the steady state. By contrast, the proposed approach determines the differences that result in the conservation of mass, momentum and energy after the boundary condition is enforced, ensuring conservation at any instant during the iterative process. The reverse flow within the mixing plane boundary is naturally treated, but both inlet and outlet boundary conditions fail when the mixing plane normal velocity tends to zero, giving rise to sharp variations of the fluid variables that must be properly limited to prevent convergence problems. Some examples will be given to demonstrate the ability of the new method to resolve those cases while preserving the boundary condition robustness.
