Abstract:
Using controlled numerical N-body experiments, we show how, in the collapse dynamics of an initially cold and uniform distribution of particles with a generic asymmetric shape, finite N fluctuations and perturbations induced by the anisotropic gravitational field compete to determine the physical properties of the asymptotic quasi-stationary state. When finite N fluctuations dominate the dynamics, the particle energy distribution changes greatly and the final density profile decays outside its core as r−4 with an N-dependent amplitude. On the other hand, in the limit where the anisotropic perturbations dominate, the collapse is softer and the density profile shows a decay as r−3, as is typical of halos in cosmological simulations. However, even in this limit, convergence with N of the macroscopic properties of the virialized system, such as the particle energy distributions, the bound mass, and the density profile, is very slow and not clearly established, including for our largest simulations (with N ∼ 106). Our results illustrate the challenges of accurately simulating the first collapsing structures in standard-type cosmological models.

Abstract:
The initial energy of a conservative mechanical system is distributed between its vibratory modes. It is a known fact that if the system is displaced according to a certain mode shape and released with zero velocity then it vibrates only in that mode. In this study it is investigated whether it is possible, through appropriate selection of initial conditions, for energies in different modes to take prescribed ratios of the total energy. Keeping in mind the difficulties of many students with regard to modal quantities, a systematic treatment of the energy distribution between the modes is given. In doing so, the known results in the literature are pointed out as special cases. At the end of the paper two examples are given.

Abstract:
AbstractThe one-dimensional behavior of a thin plasma foil heated by laser is studied, emphasizing on the fully kinetic effects associated with initial energetic electrons using a relativistic kinetic 1D3V Particle-In-Cell code. For this purpose, the generalized Lorentzian (Kappa) function inclusive the high energy tail is employed for initial electron distribution. The presence of the initially high-energy electrons leads to a different ion energy spectrum than the initially Maxwellian distribution. It is shown for the smaller Kappa parameter k where the high energy tail of the electron distribution function becomes more significant, the electron cooling rate increases. Moreover, the spatiotemporal evolution of electric field is strongly affected by the initial super-thermal electrons.

Abstract:
In recent years, continues development of China urbanization gradually increases the energy consumption of buildings. Studies on the life cycle energy distribution of buildings have practical significance to determine energy policy formulation and adjustment. Based on previous studies and the composition of the life cycle energy consumption of buildings, this article constructed a life-cycle energy consumption model, and established the calculation methods of initial embodied energy, operational energy, reset embodied energy ,dismantle embodied energy and recycle embodied energy separately. Based on ICE material energy data and combined rating per machine per team, this article calculated the life cycle energy distribution of a building in Nanjing. We found that the life cycle energy of buildings obeyed normal distribution, the operational energy accounts for a large proportion and it decreases with the decreased life cycle of buildings. The recovery of operational energy can reduce the proportion of the initial embodied energy. Considering the studies, in order to meet the characteristic of the buildings in China which have short life cycle, we should focus on the development of building materials recycling and reusing.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the effects of spatial location, Reynolds number and near exit flow modification on the development region of a round, free, turbulent jet. It is based on the publications generated by the author. The experiments were carried out over the range of Reynolds numbers between 10000 < ReD < 50000, where ReD is calculated based on the jet exit mean velocity and the nozzle exit diameter. The measurements were performed in the near- to intermediate-field region of a free jet defined between 0 ≤ x/D ≤ 30. In order to control the flow near the exit, two wire rings, with square cross-sections, of sides h = 1.5 mm, and outer diameter Dwire = 71.6 mm (positioned in the shear layer and called Rsl) and Dwire = 60 mm (positioned in the potential core and called Rpc) were placed at a stand-off distance downstream of the jet nozzle exit plane x/D = 0.03. Both stationary and flying hot wires were used to investigate the jet flow field. The results showed a considerable reduction in the jet spread rate and turbulence intensity using the passive rings. The reduction in the velocity decay rate was more obvious in the case of Rsl in lower Re; however, it was observed that as Re increases, the velocity decay rate became nearly the same for both cases of Rsl and Rpc. The axial velocity spectra showed the initial shear layer instability (shear layer mode) was suppressed while the jet preferred instability (preferred mode) remained active as the shear layer and potential core were modified. This shows the separation of these modes and is at variance with ideas that appeared in the literature that claimed the dependency of these two modes.

Abstract:
In order to cope with the unpredictability of the energy market and provide rapid response when supply is strained by demand, an emerging technology, called energy demand management, enables appliances to manage and defer their electricity consumption when price soars. Initial experiments with our multi-agent, power load management simulator, showed a marked reduction in energy consumption when price-based constraints were imposed on the system. However, these results also revealed an unforeseen, negative effect: that reducing consumption for a bounded time interval decreases system stability. The reason is that price-driven control synchronizes the energy consumption of individual agents. Hence price, alone, is an insufficient measure to define global goals in a power load management system. In this chapter the authors explore the effectiveness of a multi-objective, system-level goal which combines both price and system stability. The authors apply the commonly known reinforcement learning framework, enabling the energy distribution system to be both cost saving and stable. They test the robustness of their algorithm by applying it to two separate systems, one with indirect feedback and one with direct feedback from local load agents. Results show that their method is not only adaptive to multiple systems, but is also able to find the optimal balance between both system stability and energy cost.

Abstract:
In a chemical reaction, the shape of the potential energy surface (PES) dictates the reaction rate and energy disposal in the products. Not only does the dynamics depend crucially upon the features of the surface, but, ultimately one seeks to influence the course of the reaction by preparing selectively certain regions of the surface. For harpooning reactions, the propensity rules for energy disposal in the products (influence of the entrance kinetic energy, effect of the early or late barrier) have been established by Polanyi (1972) and have been used later as guidelines. Here, the surface may easily be modeled in simple terms using long-range electrostatic interaction in the entrance valley. There was, then, need of an experimental method which allows the possibility of observing directly the characteristic regions of this potential energy surface, but also to investigate precisely the surface in other types of reaction. The study of the reactivity of van der Waals complexes is intended to fulfil this purpose. In classical experiments, the surface is obtained by inversion of the experimental data which are differential cross sections and internal energy distribution of the products. This procedure is difficult and not unambiguous. The first step is to determine the correlation between the entrance channel's parameters (kinetic energy, internal energy, angular momentum) and the final states of the products (kinetic energy, internal energy, angular distribution). This requires a precise control of the entrance channel. Therefore, the goal of many experiments is to reduce the initial states to a small subset, and to measure the energy disposal in the products with the greatest accuracy. This was first achieved by controlling the kinetic energy of the reactants in crossed beam experiments. Later, a certain control of the collision geometry was obtained by orienting the molecules or the atomic orbitals in crossed beam experiments or by using prealigned systems in a van der Waals complex: this subject is discussed in Buelow et al. (1986).

Abstract:
The financial analyses presented in Chapters 7 and 8 indicate that commercial development of OTEC will have a significant impact on the economics of U.S. energy production and use. Two scenarios for commercial development are examined in this section: 1. Development of OTEC methanol capacity sufficient to replace all U.S. gasoline produced from imported oil. 2. Development of OTEC ammonia capacity sufficient to replace all gasoline used in U.S. transportation. Commercialization of this option implies a project goal to produce methanol plantships with enough total methanol capacity to replace the gasoline used in the United States that is now produced from imported petroleum, 47 billion gallons of gasoline in 1990 (DOE/EIA, 1990). This would require a total of 427 200-MWe plantships, each producing 199 million gallons of methanol per year (1.8 gallons of methanol give the same automobile mileage as 1 gallon of gasoline. We assume financing based on an initial nominal plant investment of $960M (1990$) and an eighth plant investment of $664M. With repeated manufacture, the cost will be reduced to $438M for the 427th plantship, assuming that an experience exponent of 0.93 applies for all production of identical plantships after the first three. The average plant investment for the total production is then $507M. If financial support is maintained to complete the program, the year 2020 is a reasonable target date for achieving the full fuel production capacity. This implies construction of OTEC plantships at an average rate of 17 per year after commercial production is established. This rate could be accommodated in U.S. shipyards with feasible modifications to satisfy specific OTEC requirements. The U.S. shipbuilding facilities are discussed in Section 4.1. In addition to the investments required for OTEC, methanol automobiles must be in production, and distribution systems for methanol must be installed. The associated costs must be included in the financial analysis. Offsetting these costs are the savings resulting from: 1. Large improvements in the U.S. balance of trade through elimination of oil imports. 2. Tax receipts accruing from reinvigorated U.S. shipbuilding and associated manufacturing industries. 3. Economic benefits of stabilized world fuel prices.

Abstract:
Determination of microstructural events during heat treatment operations is an important task to obtain the desired microstructures and mechanical properties. Accordingly, during heat treatment of materials that have high stalking fault energy such as aluminum alloys, concurrent occurrence of recovery and recrystallization needs to be considered. On the other hand, the annealing processes may be performed under non-isothermal conditions in which a part of softening process is carried out during heating and/or cooling stage, particularly for the case of large-scale products. Thus, for estimation of softening fraction and microstructural events, different types of problems need to be taken into account such as the deformation analysis, the kinetics of metallurgical events, and heat conduction problem. In this entry, a combined analysis is discussed to manage the above-mentioned phenomena employing the finite element analysis together with cellular automata (CA) modeling. For this purpose, the distribution of plastic strain and the stored energy after cold rolling are determined utilizing finite element formulation, while they are considered as the initial conditions for the microstructural modeling. In the next stage, a two-dimensional CA coupled with a first-order equation is used to assess the softening rate, while a thermal finite element analysis is simultaneously employed to define temperature distribution during non-isothermal annealing. The model is then examined on softening behavior of cold-rolled AA1050 plate.

Abstract:
The purpose of this chapter is to review the theories of molecular structure and property relations, to discuss computational methods for prediction of molecular structure and properties, and to discuss some of the properties that can be predicted by computations. Quantum mechanics is the foundation of molecular structure and properties. The position and energy of the electrons around a molecule are determined by solving the Schrödinger equation for a given set of positions of the nuclei of the atoms. There is a lot of powerful and effective computer software that can be used to calculate many of the properties of an isolated single molecule, especially at zero absolute temperature. The starting point is the construction of the sketch of a molecule by connecting atoms with the appropriate bonds. This qualitative sketch does not need accurate values for the bond lengths and angles. To set up the computation, the investigator specifies one of three computation methods: ab initio, semi-empirical, or molecular mechanics. The first and second methods are based on quantum mechanics about a model of the molecule as a number of negatively charged electrons surrounding a collection of positively charged nuclei. The third option of molecular mechanics is based on classical Newtonian mechanics about a model of the molecule as a number of mechanical bonds linking the atoms together, and these bonds can be stretched and bent according to empirical force fields. When either the Schrödinger equation or the Newtonian equation is solved with the initial spatial distribution of nuclei, in what is called the single-point determination, the binding energy of the molecule is obtained. If we make random perturbations of the positions of the various atoms, and repeat the single-point calculations, we can map the energy levels of the molecule in a neighborhood. The most stable or equilibrium position of the molecule is the one with the lowest energy in the neighborhood, and the search for this equilibrium position of the atoms is called geometry optimization. The most rigorous and accurate method of calculation is the ab initio method, which is also the most demanding in computational time and resources, so that it is most often used for smaller molecules.

Abstract:
Various difficulties of classical physics, including inadequate description of atoms and molecules, led to new ways of visualizing physical realities, ways which are embodied in the methods of quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics is based on the description of particle motion by a wave function, satisfying the Schrodinger equation, which in its “time-independent” form is: ((−h2/8mπ2)⛛2+V)Ψ=E Ψ or, for short: HΨ = EΨ In this equation, H, the Hamiltonian operator, is defined by H = − ((h2/8mπ2)⛛2+V, where h is Planck’s constant (6.6 10−34 Joules), m is the particle’s mass, ⛛2 is the sum of the partial second derivative with x,y, and z, and V is the potential energy of the system. As such, the Hamiltonian operator is the sum of the kinetic energy operator and the potential energy operator. (Recall that an operator is a mathematical expression which manipulates the function that follows it in a certain way. For example, the operator d/dx placed before a function differentiates that function with respect to x.) E represents the total energy of the system and is a number, not an operator. It contains all the information within the limits of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which states that the exact position and velocity of a microscopic particle cannot be determined simultaneously. Therefore, the information provided by Ψ(nit) is in terms of probability: Ψ2(x,t) is the probability of finding the particle between x and x + dx, at time t. The Schrödinger equation applied to atoms will thus describe the motion of each electron in the electrostatic field created by the positive nucleus and by the other electrons. When the equation is applied to molecules, due to the much larger mass of nuclei, their relative motion is considered negligible as compared to that of the electrons (Born-Oppenheimer approximation). Accordingly, the electronic distribution in a molecule depends on the position of the nuclei and not on their motion. The kinetic energy operator for the nuclei is considered to be zero. For a many-electron molecule, the Hamiltonian operator can thus be written as the sum of the electrons’ kinetic energy term, which in turn is the sum of individual electrons’ kinetic energies and the electronic and nuclear potential energy terms.

Full text
Abstract:
In this Chapter, we consider a microgrid with a certain number of distributed energy resources (DER) components connected to an office building (in a university campus) provided with electricity by a utility company. We develop the initial version of the energy management system which is responsible for the optimal energy scheduling of the microgrid’s distributed energy resources. These resources include a photovoltaic (PV) installation, a Storage Energy System (ESS), a small Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit, and a fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) used for work-related trips. The mobility behavior of the EVs fleet is modeled considering deterministic realizations of the probabilistic distributions used for the arrival/departure, and the time EVs remain parked. To investigate the impact of renewable generation and load unpredictability on the energy management system (EMS) operation, PV production and electric load are modeled under uncertainty using actual smart meters data for the scenarios formulation. We also assume that each DER component, through an EMS, can communicate and control the power exchange from and towards this component and that, two way communication with the utility company can be reached through aggregators using advanced metering equipment. We also consider a simplified thermal model that provides a specific level of thermal comfort to the building’s occupants, by meeting the predicted heating load. The energy produced by the DERs can be sold back to the grid by the microgrid manager and/or it can be stored for future utilization.

Full text
Abstract:
We discuss the sensitivity to initial conditions and the entropy production of low-dimensional conservative maps, focusing on situations where the phase space presents complex (fractal-like) structures. We analyze numerically the standard map as a specific example and we observe a scenario that presents appealing analogies with anomalies detected in long-range Hamiltonian systems. We see how the Tsallis nonextensive formalism handles this situation both from a dynamical and from a statistical mechanics point of view…. In recent years, the Tsallis extension of the Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics [9, 26], usually referred to as nonextensive (NE) statistical mechanics, has become an intense and exciting research area (see, e.g., Tsallis [25]). The q-exponential distribution functions that emerge as a consequence of the NE formalism have been applied to an impressive variety of problems, ranging from turbulence, to high-energy physics, epilepsy, protein folding, and financial analysis. Yet, the foundation of this formalism, as well as the definition of its area of applicability, is still not completely understood, and it stands as a present challenge in the affirmation of the whole proposal. An intensive effort is currently being made to investigate this point, precisely in trying to understand: (1) which mechanisms lead to a crisis of the BG formalism; and (2) in these cases, does the NE formalism provide a "way out" to some of the problems? A possible approach to these questions comes from the study of the underlying dynamics that gives the basis for a statistical mechanic treatment of the system. This idea is not new. Einstein, in his critical remark about the validity of the Boltzmann principle [10], was one of the first to call attention to the relevance of a dynamical foundation of statistical mechanics. Another fundamental contribution is Krylov's seminal work [14] on the mixing properties of dynamical systems. In one-dimensional (dissipative) systems, intensive effort has been made to analyze the properties of the systems at the edge of chaos, i.e., at the critical poin that marks the transition between chaoticity and regularity [6, 8, 16, 19, 18, 23, 27].

Abstract:
Abstract The early flame kernel initiation and development are essential to a successful combustion process, especially under lean burn/EGR diluted conditions. Multiple ignition sites strategy has shown promise to secure the flame kernel initiation under extreme engine operating conditions. Two factors are considered to contribute to the enhanced ignition capability, i.e. the higher ignition energy and the multiple initial flame kernels. However, the mechanism why the multiple ignition sites help combustion is less understood. In this work, the impacts of the ignition energy distribution strategy on the flame inception process are investigated in a constant volume combustion chamber. A multi-coil ignition system, along with a sparkplug with three high-voltage electrodes, is used to adjust the discharge energy from 10 mJ to 240 mJ, as well as the energy deposition strategies. Experimental results have shown that the distributed energy strategy with sufficient discharge energy can establish a bigger initial flame kernel, leading to faster flame growth rates, as compared to the concentrated energy strategy.

Abstract:
In this paper a computational heat transfer model for prediction of the temperature distribution within the human eye during laser surgery is presented. The heat transfer within a tissue is described by the classic Pennes bioheat transfer equation. The intraocular temperature distribution is calculated using finite-difference method. Two types of computational domain have been considered: (i) rectangular parallelepiped and (ii) cylindrical. The eye is modeled as a composite layered structure consisting of four different ocular tissues, namely, cornea, aqueous, lens and vitreous. It is assumed that the eye is symmetrical about the pupillary axis. The absorption probability of ocular tissue is modulated based on the Lambert-Beer’s law to reproduce the exponential attenuation of the laser light with depth within a biomaterial. The heat flow is modeled as transient and three-dimensional for rectangular parallelepiped geometry and two-dimensional (axi-symmetric) for the cylindrical geometry. The results indicate that for the insulation condition imposed on the periphery of the eye the model based on rectangular parallelepiped geometry of the eye at no laser power and at the initial temperature of 25°C predicts temperature closer to in-vitro experimental measurements reported in literature whereas the model based on cylindrical geometry predicts higher temperature. The opposite is true (that is, lower temperature is predicted by the model based on cylindrical geometry) for high laser heat flux (2000 W/m2) and higher initial temperature (37°C). This study also presents changes in eye temperature subjected to intermittent laser source used in laser surgery techniques such as PRK and LASIK. A comparison of the results based on three different boundary conditions such as convection (hb = 10 W/m2K), constant temperature (37°C) and insulation on the eye periphery reveals that the model based on insulation condition predicts results closer to that of in-vitro experiment at no laser power and initial temperature of 25°C whereas at a laser power of 200 W/m2 and at the initial temperature of 37°C insulation boundary condition produces highest temperature followed by that produced by convection and constant temperature conditions. The heat transfer is one-dimensional for the insulated eye periphery whereas multi-dimensional heat flow takes place when the circumferential boundary condition is either convective or isothermal.
