Abstract:
Coastal areas are home to billions of people and assets that are prone to natural disasters and climate change. In this study, we established a disaster network to assess the multi-hazards (gale and heavy rain) of typhoon disasters, specifically Typhoon Mangkhut of 2018 in coastal China, by applying the methodology of a bipartite network in both time dimension and spatial dimension. In this network, the edge set and adjacent matrix are based on the connection between an hour and a city with a multi-hazards impact that includes gales and heavy rain. We analyze the characteristics and structure of this disaster network and assess the multi-hazards that arose from Typhoon Mangkhut in different areas. The result shows that there are 14 cities in the core area and 21 cities in the periphery area, based on core–periphery classification in the disaster network. Although more damage area belongs to the periphery area, the percentage of the population affected by the typhoon and direct economic loss in GDP in the core area was 69.68% and 0.22% respectively, which is much higher than in the periphery area (55.58% and 0.06%, respectively) The core area suffered more from multi-hazards and had more disaster loss. This study shows that it is feasible to assess multiple hazards with a disaster network based on the bipartite network.

Abstract:
In Heavy Weather Sailing, Adlard Coles defines a survival storm, as distinct from a full gale, as those conditions in which, the wind at Force 10 or above and perhaps gusting at hurricane strength, wind and sea become the masters; there is little the unfortunate mariner can do. It is impossible for anyone in a small boat in the middle of an ocean storm to judge wind-speed or sea-state accurately, if only because the height of eye will be too low to see enough of the sea surface. However, an experienced observer will be able to distinguish between storm-force and gale-force winds and if he knows his craft well enough he will sense when she has become at the mercy of the seas. In precisely these terms I believe Jester to have experienced a survival storm in the vicinity of 48° 30′ N., 12° 30′ W. on 1 August 1986. She was on her way back from Nova Scotia to Plymouth, some 25 days out, 250 miles from her destination. It was her thirteent transatlantic crossing.

Objective:This review aimed to explore recent published literature, research and practice in managing breast cancer wounds with a specific focus on the potential values of honey in managing the wounds.Methods:Ten databases were searched (CINAHL, EBSCOhost, ProQuest, Google Scholar, Wiley Interscience, Science Direct, Blackwell Synergy, Liebert Online, Internurse, and Gale Cengage) using the search terms ‘fungating wound’ OR ‘malignant wound’, ‘breast cancer wounds’ AND ‘honey’ AND ‘Indonesia’. The search was limited from period of 2006 to 2016, to English and Indonesian language, and only full text articles were included. Reference lists of relevant articles were also hand searched.Results: The search identified twelve articles that met the search criteria. An article published before 2006 was also included on the basis of its relevance. All articles were written in English. Publications have indicated that a malignant wound represents a cluster of symptoms such as malodor, heavy exudate, pain, bleeding, and various psychosocial issues.In order to stabilize and prevent wound deterioration, the physical and bioactive properties of honey may have potentials to be applied as a single treatment in primary wound dressings to manage offensive odor and heavy exudate. Conclusion: Further research to study native Indonesian honeys’ properties will be beneficial to assist with practice decisions.

Abstract:
Abstract. The baroclinic depression that affected the area of Cyprus during the cold period, between 28 and 29 January 2008 was thoroughly studied and is presented in the present paper. A small perturbation on a northwesterly flow to the north of Cyprus has initiated the generation of the depression and in 24 h this developed into a deep baroclinic system. This depression was associated with intense weather phenomena, such as heavy thunderstorms with hail and near gale force winds. Strong cold advection resulted in a significant temperature decrease; precipitation even in lower altitudes was in the form of snow, while the accumulated rainfall corresponded to the 25% of the monthly normal. January 2008 is considered as a dry month, despite the fact that, on the average, January is considered as the wettest month of the year. In this study, the evolution and development of the depression was investigated from synoptic, dynamic, energetic and thermodynamic perspectives, in order to enhance our knowledge on the life cycle and behaviour of similar depressions over the area with extreme characteristics.

Abstract. In August 2002, Typhoon RUSA hit Korea with severe gale and storm, causing extensive damage throughout the whole country and especially in the Gangneung area. Even on a single day, Typhoon RUSA recorded up to 879.5 mm of rainfall in the Gangneung area. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of the scale of Typhoon RUSA are performed in this study. Most of the inland affected by RUSA in the Korean Peninsula recorded heavy rainfall, equivalent to a return period of more than 200 years. Especially, rainfall of 24 h duration exceeded the maxima observed so far. Although areal rainfall showed a rapidly decreasing trend with increasing area, it reached 96 percent of the existing PMP within a 2000 km2 area and recorded the maximum observed value of Korea according to a DAD analysis of rainfall. Re-estimated PMP values obtained from a hydro-meteorological approach compared with existing PMP estimates revealed a discrepancy between the two values, which showed that re-estimated PMP values of 12 to 24 h duration within 2000 km2 exceeded the existing PMP estimates of Korea. Therefore, modification of the existing PMP is required, which is used as a design hydrological variable of hydraulic structure.

Abstract:
A subtropical squall line moved from Guangxi to Guangdong province in South China on 23-24 April 2007, which resulted in gale and heavy precipitation. The three-dimensional (3D) wind field of the squall line in its mature period was retrieved by Guangzhou-Shenzhen dual-Doppler data. The 3D conceptual model of this squall line was proposed. On the horizontal plane, the storm-relative front-to-rear inflow prevailed at the lower altitudes of the leading edge. The rear-to-front cold inflow in the stratiform region was observed below 3 km height, which enhanced the convergence in the convective region. At the middle altitudes of the squall line, the front-to-rear horizontal flow prevailed. Strong updrafts were observed at the lower and middle altitudes of the leading edge. Some convergence centers were located at the lower altitudes of the convective region. Furthermore, the storm-relative flow in the vertical cross-section perpendicular to the squall line was revealed. The front-to-rear warm flow extended from the surface to 7.5 km altitude at the leading edge. Above it, part of the front-to-rear inflow blew upward and then forward, and the other part of the inflow blew backward. The descending rear-to-front cold flow was only seen below 3 km height in the stratiform region.

"Links between East Coast Lows and the spatial and temporal variability of rainfall along the eastern seaboard of Australia." Journal of Southern Hemisphere Earth Systems Science 66, no. 2 (2016): 162. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/es16014.

Full text
Abstract:
East Coast Lows (ECLs) are intense low-pressure systems which occur over the subtropical east coasts of southern and northern hemisphere continents. ECLs are typically associated with gale force winds, large seas, storm surges, heavy rainfall and flooding. While ECL impacts are typically seen as negative the rainfall associated with ECLs is also very important for urban water security within the heavily populated eastern seaboard of Australia (ESA). This study investigates historical ECLs to gain insights into the timing, frequency, intensity and location of ECL occurrence as well as the magnitude and spatial extent of ECL impacts on rainfall. The different characteristics and impacts associated with different ECL sub-types are highlighted and it is proposed that this spatial and temporal variability in ECL behaviour at least partially explains why the ESA is hydroclimatically different to the rest of Australia and why different locations within the ESA have such different rainfall patterns—and therefore different levels of flood and drought risk. The-se insights are critical to the objectives of the New South Wales government funded Eastern Seaboard Climate Change Initiative (ESCCI), in particular Project 5 which focuses on the water security impacts of ECLs. The results of this work will be used to produce climate-informed stochastic daily rainfall simulations that are more realistic than existing stochastic rainfall simulation methods at preserving the statistics important for catchment-scale hydrology (e.g. clustering of extreme events, long-term persistence, frequency/duration/magnitude of wet and dry spells). These simulated rainfall sequences, that incorporate the spatial and temporal hydroclimatic variability caused by ECLs and other climate phenomena, are important inputs into the hydrological models used to determine current and future urban water security within the ESA.

Abstract:
The developing nervous system is vulnerable to heavy metal exposure, which can cause alterations in neuronal and glial cells in the brain. Thus, heavy metals such as mercury and lead reduce myelin galactocerebroside (GalC) synthesis, and increase the ratio of non-hydroxylated fatty acids to hydroxylated fatty acids (GalC-N:GalC-OH) in the GalC molecules in newborn rats. This study investigated the effect of lead on the expression of myelin components by the myelin-forming oligodendroglial cells (OG) in vitro. Primary cultures of mixed glial cells from brains of newborn rats were continuously exposed to triethyllead (TEL; 1nM, 10nM, 50nM and 100nM) for 3 weeks, one week after seeding. The first morphological alteration observed was an increased proliferation of OG in cultures exposed to 10nM TEL. Biochemical analyses showed up-regulation of the enzymes, 2'3’-cyclic nucleotide 3’-phosphodiesterase and 5’-nucleotidase. GalC synthesis was also stimulated, and the ratio GalC-N:GalC-OH was reduced. The results indicate that TEL stimulates the differentiation and maturation of OG in cultures, which suggests that the alterations induced by heavy metals in newborn rats are not due to interference with the OG maturation.

Abstract:
Abstract. Tropical cyclones (TCs) result in widespread damage associated with strong winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge. TC Yasi was one of the most powerful TCs to impact the Queensland coast since records began. Prior to Yasi, the SSTs in the Coral Sea were higher than average by 1–2 ∘C, primarily due to the 2010/2011 La Niña event. In this study, a conceptually simple idealised sensitivity analysis is performed using a high-resolution regional model to gain insight into the influence of SST on the track, size, intensity and associated rainfall of TC Yasi. A set of nine simulations with uniform SST anomalies of between −4 and 4 ∘C applied to the observed SSTs are analysed. The resulting surface winds and pressure are used to force a barotropic storm surge model to examine the influence of SST on the associated storm surge of TC Yasi. An increase in SST results in an increase in intensity, precipitation and integrated kinetic energy of the storm; however, there is little influence on track prior to landfall. In addition to an increase in precipitation, there is a change in the spatial distribution of precipitation as the SST increases. Decreases in SSTs result in an increase in the radius of maximum winds due to an increase in the asymmetry of the storm, although the radius of gale-force winds decreases. These changes in the TC characteristics also lead to changes in the associated storm surge. Generally, cooler (warmer) SSTs lead to reduced (enhanced) maximum storm surges. However, the increase in surge reaches a maximum with an increase in SST of 2 ∘C. Any further increase in SST does not affect the maximum surge but the total area and duration of the simulated surge increases with increasing upper ocean temperatures. A large decrease in maximum storm surge height occurs when a negative SST anomaly is applied, suggesting if TC Yasi had occurred during non-La Niña conditions the associated storm surge may have been greatly diminished, with a decrease in storm surge height of over 3 m when the SST is reduced by 2 ∘C. In summary, increases in SST lead to an increase in the potential destructiveness of TCs with regard to intensity, precipitation and storm surge, although this relationship is not linear.

Abstract:
Freight transport demand has escalated and will continue to do so as economiesgrow. As the traffic intensity increases, the drivers are faced with increasinglycomplex tasks and traffic safety is a growing issue. Simultaneously, fossil fuel usageis escalating. Heavy duty vehicle (HDV) platooning is a plausible solution to theseissues. Even though there has been a need for introducing automated HDV platooningsystems for several years, they have only recently become possible to implement.Advancements in on-board and external technology have ushered in new possibilitiesto aid the driver and enhance the system performance. Each vehicle is able to serveas an information node through wireless communication; enabling a cooperativenetworked transportation system. Thereby, vehicles can semi-autonomously travel atshort intermediate spacings, effectively reducing congestion, relieving driver tension,improving fuel consumption and emissions without compromising safety. This thesis presents contributions to a framework for the design and implementation of HDV platooning. The focus lies mainly on establishing and validating realconstraints for fuel optimal control for platooning vehicles. Nonlinear and linearvehicle models are presented together with a system architecture, which dividesthe complex problem into manageable subsystems. The fuel reduction potentialis investigated through simulation models and experimental results derived fromstandard vehicles traveling on a Swedish highway. It is shown through analyticaland experimental results that it is favorable with respect to the fuel consumption tooperate the vehicles at a much shorter intermediate spacing than what is currentlydone in commercially available systems. The results show that a maximum fuelreduction of 4.7–7.7 % depending on the inter-vehicle time gap, at a set speedof 70 km/h, can be obtained without compromising safety. A systematic designmethodology for inter-vehicle distance control is presented based on linear quadraticregulators (LQRs). The structure of the controller feedback matrix can be tailoredto the locally available state information. The results show that a decentralizedcontroller gives good tracking performance, a robust system and lowers the controleffort downstream in the platoon. It is also shown that the design methodologyproduces a string stable system for an arbitrary number of vehicles in the platoon,if the vehicle configurations and the LQR weighting parameters are identical for theconsidered subsystems. With the results obtained in this thesis, it is argued that a vast fuel reductionpotential exists for HDV platooning. Present commercial systems can be enhancedsignificantly through the introduction of wireless communication and decentralizedoptimal control.

This dissertation seeks to understand the relationship between game design and the player on the construction of experiences manufactured in videogames. Due to its interactive nature, we can understand that videogames are made by two instances in the construction of its language and experience: on one hand, the game design defines how the game will be; and on another, the player, key-element, interacts and renews the choices made for the game. The question of how the experiences in videogames happen is instigated through this mutuality. With this purpose we seek to understand the concept of experience through the duality proposed by Eduard Gámez, using Martin Heidegger s phenomenological perspective and John Dewey s pragmatic view. We then go to a practical approach on how to create the language of videogames, based on Jesse Schell, Tracy Fullerton, Jesper Juul and Jane McGonigal. After identifying the key-elements to understand how videogames configure their language, we switch to the player s perspective. By using Gámez s Core Elements of Gaming Experience, we seek to identify similar aspects from players experience and how they eventually conform a subjective outcome from playing. These theoretical pillars end up in the analysis of the game Heavy Rain. It allows the concepts and examples used in the text to be effectively analyzed as a whole. The bibliographical revision and the approach given during the dissertation allow the evaluation of videogames under the game design and the player s perspective, heading towards the creation of the experience of this media on a mutual path. Through this we can see videogames from a wider point of view, understanding its processes and the potential they carry in their core as a media
Este trabalho busca entender a relação entre o game design e o jogador na construção das experiências agenciadas pelos videogames. Por sua natureza interativa, podemos entender que os videogames são compostos por duas instâncias na construção de sua linguagem e experiência: de um lado, o game design comporta escolhas feitas e define como o jogo será; de outro, o jogador, peça-chave, interagindo e atualizando o espaço criado. Gera-se a questão de como as experiências nos videogames acontecem a partir dessa mutualidade. Para isso buscamos entender o conceito de experiência através da dualidade proposta por Eduardo Gámez a partir da perspectiva fenomenológica de Martin Heidegger e da pragmática de John Dewey. Passa-se a uma abordagem prática de como se constrói a linguagem dos videogames, baseada em Jesse Schell, Tracy Fullerton, Jesper Juul e Jane McGonigal. Após configurar elementos-chave para entender como os videogames configuram sua linguagem, busca-se o olhar jogador. Almeja-se, tendo como base o modelo dos Elementos Centrais da Experiência do Jogo (Gámez), identificar pontos semelhantes das experiências dos jogadores e como elas conformam eventualmente um resultado subjetividade do jogar. Esses pilares teóricos culminam na análise do jogo Heavy Rain. Ela permite que os conceitos e exemplos discorridos durante a dissertação possam ser efetivamente analisados como um todo. A revisão bibliográfica e o caminho tecido durante o trabalho permitem que possamos avaliar os videogames sob a perspectiva do game design e do jogador, que caminham juntas para a criação da experiência da mídia. Isso permite que enxerguemos os videogames de uma maneira mais ampla, entendendo seus processos e a potencialidade que carregam dentro de seu âmbito midiático

Copper is one of the most used metals in platingprocesses of galvanic industries. The presence of copper, a heavy metal, in galvanic effluents is harmful to the environment.The main objective of this researchwas the removal ofcopperfromgalvanic effluents, using for this purpose anionic surfactants. The removal process is based on the interaction between the polar head group of the anionic surfactant and the divalent copper in solution. The surfactants used in this study were derived from soybean oil (OSS), coconut oil (OCS), and sunflower oil (OGS). It was used a copper synthetic solution (280 ppm Cu+2) simulating the rinse water from a copper acid bath of a galvanic industry. It were developed 23and 32 factorial designs to evaluate the parameters that have influence in theremoval process. For each surfactant (OSS, OCS, and OGS), the independent variables evaluated were: surfactant concentration (1.25 to 3.75 g/L), pH (5 to 9) and the presence of an anionic polymer (0 to 0.0125 g/L).From the results obtained in the 23 factorial design and in the calculus for estimatingthe stoichiometric relationship between surfactants and copper in solution, it were developed new experimental tests, varying surfactant concentration in the range of 1.25 to 6.8 g/L (32 factorial design).The results obtained in the experimental designs were subjected to statistical evaluations to obtain Pareto charts and mathematical modelsfor Copper removal efficiency (%). The statistical evaluation of the 23 and 32factorial designs, using saponifiedcoconut oil (OCS), presented the mathematical model that best described the copper removal process.It can be concluded that OCS was the most efficient anionic surfactant, removing 100% of the copper present in the synthetic galvanic solution
O cobre ? um dos metais mais utilizados nos processos decorativos das ind?strias galv?nicas.

This study is rooted on interpretive phenomenology as its research foundation. The research participants are middle-aged adults who are heavy addicted to online games. The research text is acquired from semi-structural in depth interviewing with five participants. The text is then analyzed by fusion of horizons, with interpretation of the meaning for their own experience by the participants, the author tried to expose the life experience essentials of the middle-aged heavy addicted game players in and between their twin worlds–the virtual one and the real one.     The lived experience for middle-aged heavy addicted player with their family, occupational, and social roles played are found to be as follows: (1) The alien dimension cyber space or the e-world fulfilled the diversified needs of the player which include the provision of feelings of exploration, adventure, and excitement together with the interaction and communication of the interpersonal relationships. (2) With the anonymous attribute, the players can enjoy the safety within real world while in the same time when he or she is taking adventure in the game world. (3) Middle-aged heavy users think that they have enough sense and power of control for both the virtual and the real world to arbitrarily come back-and-forth between both worlds without ambiguity in self-identity and apparent persona. (4) Middle-aged heavy users have, as appeared to them, crisis for their own occupational and social values, anxiety for cultivating their successor generation, and also the anxiety of aging and death. (5) In an environment of information society and with highly raised value for prosperity, the function of core family for the middle-ages has abated gradually. The virtual cyber space community relationship replaced part of the cohesive force for the real world family.     This research provides a primary interpretive reduction and analysis from the experience and viewpoint of the game player themselves for this information society with increasing internet game players. In practice, it can help readers in modifying their fixed image on the game players. And hopefully it can also bring up more researches on the internet related topics.

Traditional narrative as it is known, is linear such as with books and film. Over the last two or three decades narrative has changed to become something different. Stories are no longer linear and no longer presented as a passive activity. With the invention of digital narrative they have become interactive and allow for participation on the part of the viewer. The Cyberdrama is something more than this concept of interactive narrative. It is a contemplative participation that is reliant on the relationships that exist between the author, viewer and the medium through which it is represented. This paper is a look into Janet Murray's original theory of the Cyberdrama and its emergence in contemporary digital games. This will be done through a critical analysis of the game Heavy Rain (2010) in order to show how it exemplifies Murray's theory.

Abstract:
‘Look, my lord! See heaven itself declares against your impious intentions’ The Castle of Otranto (1764) is the first supernatural English novel and one of the most influential works of Gothic fiction. It inaugurated a literary genre that will be forever associated with the effects that Walpole pioneered. Professing to be a translation of a mysterious Italian tale from the darkest Middle Ages, the novel tells of Manfred, prince of Otranto, whose fear of an ancient prophecy sets him on a course of destruction. After the grotesque death of his only son, Conrad, on his wedding day, Manfred determines to marry the bride–to–be. The virgin Isabella flees through a castle riddled with secret passages. Chilling coincidences, ghostly visitations, arcane revelations, and violent combat combine in a heady mix that terrified the novel's first readers. In this new edition Nick Groom examines the reasons for its extraordinary impact and the Gothic culture from which it sprang. The Castle of Otranto was a game-changer, and Walpole the writer who paved the way for modern horror exponents.

Abstract:
The Northwest Pacific and the South China Sea region are the birthplaces of most monsoon disturbances and tropical cyclones and are an important channel for the generation and transmission of water vapor. The Northwest Pacific plays a major role in regulating interdecadal and long-term changes in climate. China experiences the largest number of typhoon landfalls and the most destructive power affected by typhoons in the world. The hidden dangers of typhoon disasters are accelerating with the acceleration of urbanization, the rapid development of economic construction and global warming. The coastal cities are the most dynamic and affluent areas of China’s economic development. They are the strong magnetic field that attracts international capital in China, and are also the most densely populated areas and important port groups in China. Although these regions are highly developed, they are vulnerable to disasters. When typhoons hit, the economic losses and casualties caused by gale, heavy rain and storm surges were particularly serious. This chapter reviews the response of coastal ocean to tropical cyclones, included sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity, storm surge simulation and extreme rainfall under the influence of tropical cyclones.

Abstract:
Heavy usage of online games may negatively affect the gamer's health and take a toll on school performance. However, to date, no study has utilized a longitudinal design to identify predictors of heavy usage of online games after a year of play. This study thus refers to relevant theories (e.g., flow theory and habitual theory), investigates potential correlates of game play and examines which correlates predicted the likelihood of a gamer's heavy usage after one year of play. In total, 1,852 online gamers were recruited in the first wave of this two-wave study. The results identify several predictors of heavy usage of online games, including skill and flow, and the findings enable the identification of, and the development of interventions for, individuals likely to be heavy online gamers.

Abstract:
It was supposed to be a day of short, easy paddles and portages. But that is before the winds show up, gale force and pummeling wave after wave against us, determined to lock us down on the island. We pull our three canoes laden with children and camping gear along the edges of the rocky shore to try to find an easier launching point. The teens then take steering positions, as we throw our shoulders into our paddles and dig, over, and over into those icy blasts of heavy, strong-armed water. Any lapse sends the canoe back. One slip of weight, and we’ll tip, losing all our gear, and we’ll have to struggle to stay alive against hypothermia, even in August. We’re tired. We’re cold. And we’re swearing against the powers that push at us, testing us. But we’re alive and we know it. We feel it in our bones and spirit like never at home. And we’re so darned grateful to be here. This is the wilderness. No directions came with this country—the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA) between Minnesota and Ontario. They could have been so easily lost. In the 1930s and 1940s, Aldo Leopold, Sigurd Olson, and other lovers of the outdoors saw these granite-sheathed lakes for what they were—places of rugged beauty and unspoiled wild communities that once developed could not be recovered. They called a halt to unthinking “progress” for a chance to rest in what was and preserve it for the future. Leopold explained that “Recreation is valuable in proportion to the degree to which it differs from and contrasts with workaday life.” So if Leopold were here, what progress would he note on the wilderness front, where the waves of progress push so hard against the concept? First, he would have admired the persistence of his comrade Howard Zahniser from the Wilderness Society. How “Zahnie” patiently built partnerships over his ten years as secretary of the Society and then persevered for another nine crafting the Wilderness Act. He endured 65 drafts and all the associated lobbying of Congress.

Abstract:
When players are “immersed” in a game, they become temporarily unaware of the existence of the outside world. Audio creators have a heavy responsibility to make each game experience as engrossing, or immersive, as possible. The choices can greatly enhance the player’s connection to the game world, or just as easily can be a distraction that detracts from his or her experience. There are certain factors that make game immersion unique compared to other forms of media immersion, and they stem primarily from interaction. This chapter will discuss how music affects player immersion, then will dive deeper into how the player interacts with the music.

Abstract:
Using a longitudinal panel study approach, this research examined the effects of social media use and internet connectedness on academic performance and on perceived social support. Results showed that, after controlling demographics and overall grades at Time 1, individual-level change in overall grades over the year that followed was attributable to Facebook, blogs, and online game use but not to internet connectedness. Results suggest that heavy Facebook use has a positive effect on overall grades, while heavy use of blogs and online games leads to grade impairment. In the case of academic competence and perceived social support, individual-level change over the year that followed was only attributable to Facebook use. Implications, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
CFD Modeling of the injection, the mixing, the combustion and the emission formation processes in a high pressure direct injection (HPDI) natural gas engine is presented in this paper. KIVA3V was used together with an injector model. Two sub-models had been developed that the concurrent injection, ignition and combustion of natural gas and diesel could be simulated. The gas injection was simulated with the injector model. In the injector model, the electromagnetism, the hydraulics and the mechanics were computed by solving a set of ordinary differential equations. Based on the engine experimental data, a combustion model was built in which premixed combustion of natural gas was excluded and the natural gas ignition was initiated by the pilot diesel combustion rather than a spontaneous process. The model calibration and validation are discussed. The model parameters were tuned against one set of engine test data. For the model validation, 30 engine test data were applied. The data were from HPDI engine tests at varied engine speeds, loads and injection timings with and without EGR. The model gave good agreement with the engine tests having no EGR. However, the model, in general, under-predicted the burning rate. With EGR, the model prediction errors were large and the NOx were under-predicted, though the trends were still captured.

Abstract:
Turbochargers with variable turbine geometry (VGT) are established in diesel engines for passenger cars because of the beneficial effect on transient operation. The variability permits the reduction of exhaust back pressure, resulting in lower fuel consumption. There are only a few applications in heavy duty truck engines due to increased mechanical complexity and vulnerability to failure. This paper presents a turbine concept with a simple variability developed for a heavy duty engine. The variability is achieved upstream of the rotor by changing the sectional area of the volute. This can be done through a rotationally movable ring which shifts the circumferential position of the volute tongues. These separate both scrolls of a double segment turbine and can be rotated by an electric actuator. The performance maps measured at the hot gas test stand show the large variability of the flow parameter and the high efficiency levels over the operating range of the variable asymmetric turbine (VAT). The flow field is computed by the use of 3D-CFD simulations in order to analyze the loss-generating mechanisms that occur within the machine. Test runs on an engine test stand demonstrate the high potential of the concept concerning reduction of fuel consumption and a wide scope of realizable EGR rates in order to reduce NOx emissions in a cost-effective way. The resultant large mass flow variability allows the deletion of the waste gate and enables efficiency improvements.
