Abstract:
AbstractOur aim was to compare non-linear and linear mathematical model responses for backstroke start performance prediction. Ten swimmers randomly completed eight 15 m backstroke starts with feet over the wedge, four with hands on the highest horizontal and four on the vertical handgrip. Swimmers were videotaped using a dual media camera set-up, with the starts being performed over an instrumented block with four force plates. Artificial neural networks were applied to predict 5 m start time using kinematic and kinetic variables and to determine the accuracy of the mean absolute percentage error. Artificial neural networks predicted start time more robustly than the linear model with respect to changing training to the validation dataset for the vertical handgrip (3.95 ± 1.67 vs. 5.92 ± 3.27%). Artificial neural networks obtained a smaller mean absolute percentage error than the linear model in the horizontal (0.43 ± 0.19 vs. 0.98 ± 0.19%) and vertical handgrip (0.45 ± 0.19 vs. 1.38 ± 0.30%) using all input data. The best artificial neural network validation revealed a smaller mean absolute error than the linear model for the horizontal (0.007 vs. 0.04 s) and vertical handgrip (0.01 vs. 0.03 s). Artificial neural networks should be used for backstroke 5 m start time prediction due to the quite small differences among the elite level performances.

Abstract:
Abstract We have investigated the structure of the most compact 30-nm chromatin fibres by modelling those with 2-start or 1-start crossed-linker organisations. Using an iterative procedure we obtained possible structural solutions for fibres of the highest possible compaction permitted by physical constraints, including the helical repeat of linker DNA. We find that this procedure predicts a quantized nucleosome repeat length (NRL) and that only fibres with longer NRLs (≥197 bp) can more likely adopt the 1-start organisation. The transition from 2-start to 1-start fibres is consistent with reported differing binding modes of the linker histone. We also calculate that in 1-start fibres the DNA constrains more torsion (as writhe) than 2-start fibres with the same NRL and that the maximum constraint obtained is in accord with previous experimental results. We posit that the coiling of the fibre is driven by overtwisting of linker DNA which, in the most compact forms - for example, in echinoderm sperm and avian erythrocytes - could adopt a helical repeat of ∼10 bp/turn. We argue that in vivo the total twist of linker DNA could be modulated by interaction with other abundant chromatin-associated proteins and by epigenetic modifications of the C-terminal tail of linker histones.

Abstract:

Modern heavy trucks tend to get more and more equipment demanding electric power. As a result, the electric power left for startingbecome more and more limited. If a complete view of the entire starting system-battery, starter and the combustion engine - is used, the total system can be investigated and optimized. This thesis is a study of the starting system and its components. Theories for each component are presented and models are derived for a complete starting system. Focus lies on the battery and starter motor. The purpose of the modelling work is to gain knowledge of the starting system. Some results can also be obtained from the simulations - it is very important to keep the electrical resistance as low as possible and the differences between battery types are surprisingly big.

Abstract:
Controlled Start Transmissions (CST) can be described as a mechanical transmission combined with a wet clutch for controlled torque output. CST:s are commonly used to start up heavy loads for example mining conveyors. Several CST:s can work together to share the load. The transferred torque is controlled by a hydraulic wet clutch which is a proven technology for high torque transfer and low wear. This thesis is a part of a project to increase the knowledge and improve the CST design and control performance. The heat generation in the wet clutch is the focus of this thesis. Literature review shows that most research is done in order to get high accuracy for smaller clutches and most of the high torque engagements have very short transients.Models for the CST clutch heat generation together with thermal behavior have been developed and investigated. This includes a temperature model together with a kinetic model of the gearbox and a clutch torque model. Validation of separate model components and sensitivity analysis of the parameters are made. The developed model is then analyzed by comparing measurements from a commission site and simulations to get an idea of how much heat is generated.

Abstract:
In our research, we set out to model, understand and evaluate the business process at a start-up actuarial firm which employs Report Writers (RWers) who specialise in quantifying actuarial matters. We simulated various "what-if" and extreme scenarios relating to (1) the impact of qualitative variables (stress, morale and health) on RWer productivity, (2) hiring policies for RWers who have various skills sets, (3) the allocation of RWers to various roles within the process, (4) the impact that a high turnover of experienced RWers has on productivity, (5) the impact of introducing a flexible working arrangement (flexitime). This was done through business process modelling and simulations. The business process we modelled was governed by numerous potentially complex inter-relationships between variables and inter-relationships, which we believed could lead to potentially significant feedback loops. The models we built were then simulated over a period of 3 to 7 years to gain insights into the behavioural trends of the firm's business process over time when subject to "what-if" scenarios and policy implementations. The model simulations allowed us to get an understanding of the behaviour of processes over time, and the key variables and relationships involved in bringing about such behaviour as certain variables were subjected to changes in levels, as set out in our objectives. We made use of relevant literature, expert opinion, past data, questionnaires and cognitive mapping techniques to build simulation models. Guided by methodologies used in literature on modelling qualitative variables, bearing in mind the dangers in modelling for them, we modelled for the complex inter-relationships between qualitative and quantitative variables.

The simulation of an exhaust manifold's thermal behaviour is an important concern for various reasons. Amongst them is the need to minimise catalyst light-offtime as significant exhaust emissions are generated within this period. Modelling such behaviour is not simplistic as it is governed by complex interactions between exhaust gas flow and the manifold itself. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool for such simulations. However its applicability for transient simulations is limited by high central processing unit (CPU) demands. The present study proposes an alternative computational method to assess and rank the relative impact of the manifold's thermal properties on its exterior temperature. The results show that stainless steel manifolds potentially minimise heat loss from the exhaust gas when compared with their cast iron counterparts. This may result in an increase in thermal energy being available to heat the catalyst.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING:Die navorsing wat hier uiteengesit word ondersoek die hipotese dat kondensasie en die gevolglike verdamping van water wat teenwoordig is in die uitlaatgas van ‘n binnebrandenjin, plaasvind in die gedeeltes van die uitlaatstelsel tussen die uitlaatklep en die katalitiese-omsetter se uitlaat. Daar word verder veronderstel dat hierdie tweefasevloeieffekte die tydafhanklike temperatuurprofiele in die uitlaatstelsel beïnvloed, wat moontlik kan lei tot ‘n vertraging in die tydsduur vir die katalitiese omsetter om temperature van 200-300 °C te bereik, wat nodig is om noemenswaardige omsetting te bewerkstellig. Om hierdie veronderstelling te evalueer is ‘n tydafhanklike, eendimensionele wiskundige model van die termo-vloei gedrag in die uitlaatstelsel gedurende ‘n koue inwerktreeding, insluitende vogtigheidseffekte, opgestel en opgelos deur van ‘n rekenaaralgoritme gebruik te maak. Warmte- en massaoordragsteorie was gebruik om die ongestadigde massa-, energie- en momentumbehoudsvergeleikings te formuleer. Die tweefasige vogeffekte was gemodelleer deur gebruik te maak van die verhouding tussen warmte- en massaoordrag, wat verdamping en heterogeniese kondensasie (die kondensasie van damp teen die pypwand) voorspel as gevolg van die dampdrukgradient tussen die grootmaat damp en die versadigde damp by die oppervlak van die vloeistoffilm. Homogene kondensasie (die kondensasie van vloeistof in die vorm van druppels in die dampstroom) was ook in aanmerking geneem indien die grootmaatgas temperatuur onder die versadigingstemperatuur van die grootmaatdamp gedaal het. ’n Eksperimentele ondersoek was gedoen deur van twee enjins gebruik te maak, ’n 1.6 L Volkswagen Bora en ’n 1.6 L Ford RoCam, in die toetsselle van Cape Advanced Engineering Pty (Ltd). Om die gastemperature so akkuraat moontlik te meet, was spesiale radiasiegeskermde sensore met vinnige reaksietyd ontwerp en installer in die pypseksies van die uitlaatstelsels van beide enjins. Die geskermde sensore het temperature van tot 50 °C hoër as konvensionele termokoppels in dieselfde areas gemeet. Dit is in koers is met resultate wat deur die foutbeperkingsteorie, geassosieer met die meet van temperature in vloeïende gas in uitlaatstelsels, voorspel word. Vergelyking van die numeriese simulasie met die eksperimenteel gemete temperature het aangedui dat in dele van die uitlaatstelsel voor die katalitieseomsetter, die vog min uitwerking het op die termiese gedrag van die stelsel. In hierdie gedeeltes is die konveksie warmte-oordrag dominant. In die katalitieseomsetter was die vogeffekte invloedryk. Die eksperimentele resultate toon ‘n duidelike vroeë toename in die gastemperature, gevolg deur ‘n tydperk van konstante temperature by nagenoeg die versadigingstemperatuur van die grootmaatdamp (verwys na as die temperatuurplato) by die katalitiese-omsetter se kern en uitlaat. Die numeries gesimuleerde gastemperature het ook hierdie gedrag getoon, maar ‘n baie hoë en skerp piek by die begin van die plato het voorgekom. Hierdie piek was nie te sien by die eksperimentele resultate nie en is toegeskryf aan nie-ewewigstoestande in die verdampingsproses, wat aandui dat die tempo van verdamping wat deur die massa-oordragmodel voorspel word te hoog is vir die model en dat dit verfyn moet word. Verdere ondersoek van die invloed van die individuele massa-oordragprosesse het getoon dat die homogene kondensasie die dominante proses is in die vorming van vloeistof in die katalitiese-omsetter. Heterogeniese kondensasie het plaasgevind, maar ‘n kleiner massa vloeistof is produseer. Die maksimum hoeveelheid vloeistof wat voorspel is om in die katalitiese-omsetter te vorm was 12 g/cm wat gelykstaande is aan ‘n film van 0.05.mm dik indien eweredig versprei oor die binneoppervlak van die monoliet. Daar was in die simulasie gevind dat beide verdamping en kondensasie benodig word om die temperatuurplato te simuleer, vanwaar die gevolgtrekking gemaak kan word dat beide prosesse wel plaasvind en dat die eerste stelling in die oorspronklike hipotese wel geldig is. Daar was egter teen die einde van die toetsperiode gevind dat beide temperature wat met en sonder vogeffekte simuleer was, die eksperimentele temperature nagevolg het, wat aandui dat die invloed van vog beperk is tot die vroeë stadiums van die katalitiese-omsetter se opwarmingstydperk. Die tweede gedeelte van die hipotese wat veronderstel dat die voggedrag ‘n vertraging in die tydsduur om omsetting te bewerkstellig veroorsaak, is dus bevind om ongeldig te wees. Die wiskundige model wat opgestel is tydens die ondersoek is weens noodsaaklikheid ‘n vereenvoudigde simulasie van komplekse termo-vloei prosesse. Dit dien as nuttige grondwerk vir verdere in-diepte ondersoeke en afronding van die teorie met betrekking tot voggedrag en die uitwerking daarvan op die tydsafhanklike temperature in ‘n uitlaatstelsel.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The research presented here investigates the hypothesis that condensation and subsequent evaporation of water vapour present in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine occur in the sections of the exhaust system between the exhaust port and the catalytic converter exit. It is further hypothesised that these two-phase moisture effects influence the transient temperature profiles in the exhaust system, and potentially cause a delay in the time it takes for the catalytic converter to reach temperatures of 200-300 °C, which are required for light-off to occur. In order to evaluate this hypothesis a transient, one-dimensional mathematical model of the thermo-fluid behaviour in the exhaust system during a cold start, including moisture effects, was created and solved by means of a computer algorithm. Heat and mass transfer theory was used to formulate the unsteady conservation equations for mass, energy and momentum. The two phase moisture effects were modelled using the analogy between heat and mass transfer, which predicts evaporation and heterogeneous condensation (the condensation of vapour against the pipe wall) due to a vapour pressure gradient between the bulk vapour and a saturated vapour at the surface of the liquid film. Homogeneous condensation (the condensation of liquid in the form of droplets in the gas stream) was also accounted for if the bulk gas temperature dropped below the bulk vapour saturation temperature. An experimental investigation was performed using two engines, a 1.6.L Volkswagen Bora and a 1.6.L Ford RoCam, in the test cells of Cape Advanced Engineering Pty (Ltd). In order to measure the gas temperatures as accurately as possible specialised radiation shielded sensors with fast time response were designed and installed in the pipe sections of the exhaust systems of both engines. The shielded sensors measured temperatures up 50 °C higher than the conventional thermocouples installed at the same positions, which is in keeping with the results predicted by the theory governing errors associated with temperature measurement in the flowing gas in the exhaust system. Comparison of the numerically simulated and experimentally measured temperatures indicated that in the sections of the exhaust system leading up to the catalytic converter the moisture has little influence on the temperature behaviour of the exhaust system. In these sections the convective heat transfer is dominant. In the catalytic converter the moisture effects were found to be influential. The experimental results clearly show an early rise in the gas temperatures, followed by a period of constant temperature at approximately the saturation temperature of the bulk vapour (referred to as the temperature plateau) at the catalytic converter mid-bed and exit. The numerically simulated gas temperatures also exhibited this plateau, but an initial very high and sharp peak in the simulated gas temperatures occurred at the start of the plateau. This was not seen in the experimental results and is attributed to non-equilibrium in the evaporation process, indicating that the rate of evaporation predicted by the mass transfer model used is too high for this application and that the model needs to be refined. Further investigation of the influence of the individual mass transfer processes indicated that the homogeneous condensation is the dominant process in the formation of liquid in the catalytic converter. Heterogeneous condensation was found to occur, but produced a smaller mass of liquid. The maximum amount of liquid predicted to form in the catalytic converter was 12 g/cm, which translates to a film 0.05 mm thick if evenly distributed over the inner surface of the monolith. In the simulation it was found that both evaporation and condensation are needed in order to simulate the temperature plateau, from which it was concluded that both these processes do occur and the first statement in the original hypothesis is valid. However, by the end of the test period temperatures simulated both with or without the moisture effects closely approached the final temperatures of the experimental investigation, indicating that the influence of the moisture is limited to the early stages of the catalytic converter warm-up. The second part of the hypothesis, postulating that the moisture behaviour caused a delay in the time taken to reach light-off temperature, is therefore concluded to be invalid. The mathematical model constructed in this research is by necessity a simplified solution to complex thermo-fluid processes. It serves as useful groundwork for further elaboration and refinement of the theory related the moisture behaviour and its influence on the transient temperatures in the exhaust system.

Abstract:
[EN] The injection system is one of the topics that has been paid most attention to by researchers in the field of direct injection diesel engines, due to its key role on fuel atomization, vaporization and air-fuel mixing process, which directly affect fuel consumption, noise irradiation and pollutant emissions. The increasing injection pressures in modern engines have propitiated the need of studying phenomena such as cavitation, compressible flow or the effect of changes in the fuel properties along the process, whose relative importance was lower in early stages of the reciprocating engines development. The small dimensions of the injector ducts, the high velocities achieved through them and the transient nature of the process hinder the direct observation of these facts. Computational tools have then provided invaluable help in the field. The objective of the present thesis is to analyse the influence of the thermal effects on the performance of a diesel injector. To this end, the fuel temperature variation through the injector restrictions must be estimated. The influence of these changes on the fuel thermophyisical properties relevant for the injection system also needs to be assessed, due to its impact on injector dynamics and the injection rate shape. In order to give answer to the previous objectives, both experimental and computational techniques have been employed. A dimensional and a hydraulic experimental characterization of a solenoid-actuated Bosch CRI 2.20 injector has been carried out, including rate of injection measurements at a wide range of operating conditions, with special attention to the fuel temperature control. A 1D computational model of the injector has been implemented in order to confirm and further extend the findings from the experiments. Local variations of fuel temperature and pressure are considered by the model thanks to the assumption of adiabatic flow, for which the experimental characterization of the fuel properties at high pressure also had to be performed. The limits of the validity of this assumption have been carefully assessed in the study. Results show a significant influence of the fuel temperature at the injector inlet on injection rate and duration, attributed to the effect of the variation of the fuel properties and to the fact that the injector remains in ballistic operation for most of its real operating conditions. Fuel temperature changes along the injector control orifices are able to importantly modify its dynamic behaviour. In addition, if the fuel at the injector inlet is at room temperature or above, the temperature at the nozzle outlet has not been proved to importantly change once steady-state conditions are achieved. However, a significant heating may take place for fuel temperatures at the injector inlet typical of cold-start conditions.
[ES] El sistema de inyección es uno de los elementos que más interés ha despertado en la investigación en el campo de los motores diésel de inyección directa, debido a su papel clave en la atomización y vaporización del combustible así como en el proceso de mezcla, que afectan directamente al consumo y la generación de ruido y emisiones contaminantes. Las crecientes presiones de inyección en motores modernos han propiciado la necesidad de estudiar fenómenos como la cavitación, flujo compresible o el efecto de los cambios de las propiedades del combustible a lo largo del proceso, cuya importancia relativa era menor en etapas tempranas del desarrollo de los motores alternativos. Las pequeñas dimensiones de los conductos del inyector, las altas velocidades a través de los mismos y la naturaleza transitoria del proceso dificultan la observación directa en estas cuestiones. Por ello, las herramientas computacionales han proporcionado una ayuda inestimable en el campo. El objetivo de la presente tesis es analizar la influencia de los efectos térmicos en el funcionamiento de un inyector diésel. Para tal fin, se debe estimar la variación de la temperatura del combustible a lo largo de las restricciones internas del inyector. La influencia de estos cambios en las propiedades termofísicas del combustible más relevantes en el sistema de inyección también debe ser evaluada, debido a su impacto en la dinámica del inyector y en la forma de la tasa de inyección. Para dar respuesta a estos objetivos, se han utilizado técnicas experimentales y computacionales. Se ha llevado a cabo una caracterización dimensional e hidráulica de un inyector Bosch CRI 2.20 actuado mediante solenoide, incluyendo medidas de tasa de inyección en un amplio rango de condiciones de operación, para lo que se ha prestado especial atención al control de la temperatura del combustible. Se ha implementado un modelo 1D del inyector para confirmar y extender las observaciones extra\'idas de los experimentos. El modelo considera variaciones locales de presión y temperatura del combustible gracias a la hipótesis de flujo adiabático, para lo cual también se ha tenido que llevar a cabo una caracterización experimental de las propiedades del combustible a alta presión. Los límites de la validez de esta hipótesis se han analizado cuidadosamente en el estudio. Los resultados muestran una influencia significativa de la temperatura del combustible a la entrada del inyector en la tasa y duración de inyección, atribuida al efecto de la variación de las propiedades del combustible y al hecho de que el inyector permanece en operación balística para la mayoría de sus condiciones de funcionamiento. Los cambios en temperatura del combustible a lo largo de los orificios de control del inyector son capaces de modificar su dinámica considerablemente. Además, si el combustible a la entrada del inyector se encuentra a temperatura ambiente o por encima, se ha observado que la temperatura a la salida de la tobera no varía de manera importante una vez se alcanzan condiciones estacionarias. No obstante, un calentamiento significativo puede tener lugar para temperaturas de entrada típicas de las condiciones de arranque en frío.

Les creixents pressions d'injecció en motors moderns han propiciat la necessitat d'estudiar fenòmens com la cavitació, flux compressible o l'efecte dels canvis de les propietats del combustible al llarg del procés, la importància relativa dels quals era menor en les primeres etapes del desenvolupament dels motors alternatius. Les menudes dimensions dels conductes de l'injector, les altes velocitats a través dels mateixos i la natura transitòria del procés dificulten l'observació directa en estes qüestions. Per això, les ferramentes computacionals han proporcionat una ajuda inestimable en el camp. L'objectiu de la present tesi és analitzar la influència dels efectes tèrmics en el funcionament d'un injector dièsel. Per a tal fi, es deu estimar la variació de la temperatura del combustible al llarg de les restriccions internes de l'injector. La influència d'estos canvis en les propietats termofísiques del combustible més relevants en el sistema d'injecció també ha de ser avaluada, degut al seu impacte en la dinàmica de l'injector i en la forma de la tasa d'injecció. Per tal de donar resposta a estos objectius, s'han utilitzat tècniques experimentals i computacionals. S'ha dut a terme una caracterització dimensional i hidràulica d'un injector Bosch CRI 2.20 actuat mitjançant solenoide, incloent mesures de tasa d'injecció en un ampli rang de condicions d'operació, per al que s'ha prestat especial atenció al control de la temperatura del combustible. S'ha implementat un model 1D de l'injector per tal de confirmar i estendre les observacions extretes dels experiments. El model considera variacions locals de pressió i temperatura del combustible gràcies a la hipòtesi de flux adiabàtic, per la qual cosa també s'ha hagut de dur a terme una caracterització experimental de les propietats del combustible a alta pressió. Els límits de la validesa d'esta hipòtesi s'han analitzat acuradament en l'estudi. Els resultats mostren una influència significativa de la temperatura del combustible a l'entrada de l'injector en la tasa i duració d'injecció, atribuïda a l'efecte de la variació de les propietats del combustible i al fet que l'injector roman en operació balística per a la majoria de les seues condicions de funcionament. Els canvis en temperatura del combustible al llarg dels orificis de control de l'injector són capaços de modificar la seua dinàmica considerablement. A més, si el combustible a l'entrada de l'injector es troba a temperatura ambient o per damunt, s'ha observat que la temperatura a l'eixida de la tobera no varia de manera important una vegada s'han assolit condicions estacionàries. No obstant això, un escalfament significatiu pot tenir lloc per a temperatures d'entrada típiques de les condicions d'arrancada en fred.

Abstract:
[ES] The automotive industry represents one of the most important sectors in the world. Given its socio-economic influence, research is aimed at reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Turbochargers provide several benefits including increased power for a given engine size, improved fuel economy and reduced emissions. The turbocharger is an important piece for the new generation of engines that must comply with the Euro 6 or in the U.S. Tier 3 vehicle emissions and fuel standard program. As more effort is made to increase efficiencies and reduce emissions, the complexity of the system increases. The high rotational speeds, pulsating flow conditions and high temperature differences between working fluids (exhaust gases, compressed air, lubricating oil, coolant fluids) make the turbo-charging a challenging task. Numerical simulation opens a range of possibilities to study the performance, efficiency and design of components in the turbocharger, but requires continued accuracy refinements. In this thesis, a great effort has been made to improve the overall understanding of the different physical phenomena that occur inside the turbocharger. Both, experimental and modelling efforts have been made to understand the thermal behaviour of the turbocharger under engine start/stop conditions. After state-of-the-art review of thermal studies and heat transfer simulation codes, this work presents an extensive experimental testing campaign that includes a thermal characterization of the turbocharger in stationary and transient conditions. Subsequently, several turbochargers were measured to assess the consequences that degraded oils can generate in the bearing system during endurance tests of oil-coking. To minimize the possibilities of coke formation, some theoretical studies were done. First, a 1D turbocharger model was used in GT-PowerTM for a detailed study of the temperature rise in the central housing during an engine hot-stop. The simulated cooling strategies aims to find an optimal in terms of minimizing extra energy consumption per K housing temperature reduction. After, a 2D radial model is proposed as improvement of an existing one-dimensional model developed at CMT - Universitat Politècnica de València. Aiming for a low computational cost, the radial model was developed to be compatible with fast one-dimensional engine simulations. Later, a detailed solution of heat fluxes was made by means of CFD using a 3D design of the turbocharger's central housing. The 3D model improved the results when temperature of the bearings/shaft is required. Additionally, thermal properties within the turbocharger can be obtained and therefore a reduction of the experimental tasks in the thermohydraulic test bench. Both 2D and 3D models were validated using experimental data, demonstrating predictive accuracy improvements on the results of previous models.

El turbocompresor es una pieza importante para la nueva generación de motores que deben cumplir con la normativa Euro 6 o en el programa estándar de emisiones y combustible de los EE. UU. Tier 3. A medida que se hacen más esfuerzos para aumentar la eficiencia y reducir las emisiones, la complejidad del sistema aumenta. Las altas velocidades de rotación, las condiciones de flujo pulsante y las altas diferencias de temperatura entre los fluidos de trabajo (gases de escape, aire comprimido, aceite lubricante, fluidos refrigerantes) hacen que la turbocarga sea una tarea desafiante. La simulación numérica abre un rango de posibilidades para estudiar el rendimiento, la eficiencia y el diseño de los componentes en el turbocompresor, pero requiere continuos refinamientos de precisión. En esta tesis, se ha hecho un gran esfuerzo para mejorar la comprensión global de los diferentes fenómenos físicos que ocurren al interior del turbocompresor. Se han hecho esfuerzos experimentales y de modelado para comprender el comportamiento térmico del turbocompresor en condiciones de arranque/parada del motor. Luego de una revisión de los estudios térmicos y de los códigos de simulación de transferencia de calor, éste trabajo presenta una extensa campaña de pruebas experimentales que incluye una caracterización térmica del turbocompresor en condiciones estacionarias y transitorias. Posteriormente, se midieron varios turbocompresores para evaluar las consecuencias que los aceites degradados pueden generar en el sistema de rodamientos durante pruebas de resistencia de coque de aceite. Para minimizar las posibilidades de formación de coque, se realizaron algunos estudios teóricos. En primer lugar, se usó un modelo de turbocompresor 1D en GT-PowerTM para un estudio detallado del aumento de temperatura de la carcasa central del turbocompresor durante un paro en caliente del motor. Las estrategias de enfriamiento simuladas apuntan a encontrar un óptimo en términos de minimizae el consumo de energía extra por reducción de la temperatura de la carcasa en Kelvin. Posteriormente, se propone un modelo radial 2D como mejora de un modelo unidimensional existente desarrollado en la CMT - Universitat Politècnica de València. Con el objetivo de conseguir un bajo costo computacional, el modelo radial 2D se desarrolló para ser compatible con simulaciones unidimensionales rápidas de motor. Después, se realizó una solución detallada de los flujos de calor mediante CFD utilizando un diseño 3D de la carcasa central del turbocompresor. El modelo 3D mejora los resultados cuando se requiere la temperatura de los cojinetes/eje. Además, con ésta campaña de CFD se pueden obtener propiedades térmicas dentro del turbocompresor y, por lo tanto, una reducción de las tareas experimentales en el banco de pruebas termohidráulico. Ambos modelos 2D y 3D fueron validados utilizando datos experimentales, demostrando mejoras de precisión de predicción sobre los resultados de modelos anteriores.

Posteriorment, es van mesurar uns quants turbocompressors per a avaluar les conseqüències que els olis degradats poden generar en el sistema de rodaments durant proves de resistència de coc d'aceite.

Amb l'objectiu d'aconseguir un baix cost computacional, el model radial 2D es va desenrotllar per a ser compatible amb simulacions unidimensionals ràpides de motor. Después, es va realitzar una solució detallada dels fluxos de calor per mitjà de CFD utilitzant un disseny 3D de la carcassa central del turbocompressor. El model 3D millora els resultats quan es requerix la temperatura dels cojinetes/eje. A més, amb esta campanya de CFD es poden obtindre propietats tèrmiques dins del turbocompressor i, per tant, una reducció de les tasques experimentals en el banc de proves termohidráulico. Ambdós models 2D i 3D van ser validats utilitzant dades experimentals, demostrant millores de precisió de predicció sobre els resultats de models anteriores.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews recent progress in computational modelling of visual attention. The authors start with early concepts and models, which have emphasized stimulus-driven guidance of attention towards salient objects in the visual world. They then present a taxonomy of the many different approaches which have emerged in recent research efforts. They then turn to the more complex problem of modelling top-down, task- and goal-driven influences on attention. While early top-down models have been more qualitative in nature, the authors describe several recent fully computational approaches that address top-down biasing in space, over features, and towards objects. This chapter finally provides an outlook and describes promising future research directions.

Abstract:
Prosumptionsmodelle im Bereich Ernährung und Bekleidung bieten Potential für eine Nachhaltige Entwicklung. Dabei lässt sich das klassische Verhältnis zwischen Anbietern und Konsumierenden verändern. Statt – eher passiver – Nachfrage, geht es um aktive Beiträge der Konsumenten, die sich damit auf den Weg hin zu „Prosumern“ machen. Aus öffentlich-rechtlicher Sicht geht damit eine Rollenverschiebung einher, die sich auch in der daran geknüpften „Verantwortungs-Konstellation“ niederschlägt: Wer aktiv in das Austausch-Verhältnis eintritt, den treffen auch die damit verbundenen Pflichten. Dies gilt grundsätzlich für alle Rollenverschiebungen im vorgenannten Sinne, also etwa auch für den Bereich der Bekleidung. Allerdings sind die damit einhergehenden Risiken für die Kunden (im Sinne einer Gefährdung von Leben und Gesundheit) in der Regel deutlich geringer als bei der Vermarktung von Lebensmitteln. Verunreinigungen, seien sie herstellungsbedingt oder durch nachträgliche Kontamination mit Mikro-Organismen (Bakterien, Pilze etc.) hervorgerufen, können zu Gesundheitsgefährdungen führen. Diese Risiko-Konstellation hat den Staat veranlasst, ein vergleichsweise dichtes Geflecht an öffentlich-rechtlichen Vorgaben zu etablieren, die relevant sind sowohl für (Food-) Sharing-Ansätze als auch für Modelle der solidarischen Landwirtschaft (SoLaWi). Aus öffentlich-rechtlicher Perspektive stellen sich im Bereich der beiden vorgenannten Fallbeispiele aus dem Bereich der Lebensmittelwirtschaft vor allem Fragen im Zusammenhang mit den einzuhaltenden Hygiene-Anforderungen. In der Praxis gab es hier auch bereits Auseinandersetzungen mit den zuständigen Behörden. Diese Stellungnahme konzentriert sich daher auf die damit zusammenhängenden Fragen.

African Open Science Platform Part 1: Landscape Study. Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/assaf.2019/0047.

Abstract:
This report maps the African landscape of Open Science – with a focus on Open Data as a sub-set of Open Science. Data to inform the landscape study were collected through a variety of methods, including surveys, desk research, engagement with a community of practice, networking with stakeholders, participation in conferences, case study presentations, and workshops hosted. Although the majority of African countries (35 of 54) demonstrates commitment to science through its investment in research and development (R&D), academies of science, ministries of science and technology, policies, recognition of research, and participation in the Science Granting Councils Initiative (SGCI), the following countries demonstrate the highest commitment and political willingness to invest in science: Botswana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda. In addition to existing policies in Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), the following countries have made progress towards Open Data policies: Botswana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, South Africa and Uganda. Only two African countries (Kenya and South Africa) at this stage contribute 0.8% of its GDP (Gross Domestic Product) to R&D (Research and Development), which is the closest to the AU’s (African Union’s) suggested 1%. Countries such as Lesotho and Madagascar ranked as 0%, while the R&D expenditure for 24 African countries is unknown. In addition to this, science globally has become fully dependent on stable ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) infrastructure, which includes connectivity/bandwidth, high performance computing facilities and data services. This is especially applicable since countries globally are finding themselves in the midst of the 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR), which is not only “about” data, but which “is” data. According to an article1 by Alan Marcus (2015) (Senior Director, Head of Information Technology and Telecommunications Industries, World Economic Forum), “At its core, data represents a post-industrial opportunity. Its uses have unprecedented complexity, velocity and global reach. As digital communications become ubiquitous, data will rule in a world where nearly everyone and everything is connected in real time. That will require a highly reliable, secure and available infrastructure at its core, and innovation at the edge.” Every industry is affected as part of this revolution – also science. An important component of the digital transformation is “trust” – people must be able to trust that governments and all other industries (including the science sector), adequately handle and protect their data. This requires accountability on a global level, and digital industries must embrace the change and go for a higher standard of protection. “This will reassure consumers and citizens, benefitting the whole digital economy”, says Marcus. A stable and secure information and communication technologies (ICT) infrastructure – currently provided by the National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) – is key to advance collaboration in science. The AfricaConnect2 project (AfricaConnect (2012–2014) and AfricaConnect2 (2016–2018)) through establishing connectivity between National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), is planning to roll out AfricaConnect3 by the end of 2019. The concern however is that selected African governments (with the exception of a few countries such as South Africa, Mozambique, Ethiopia and others) have low awareness of the impact the Internet has today on all societal levels, how much ICT (and the 4th Industrial Revolution) have affected research, and the added value an NREN can bring to higher education and research in addressing the respective needs, which is far more complex than simply providing connectivity. Apart from more commitment and investment in R&D, African governments – to become and remain part of the 4th Industrial Revolution – have no option other than to acknowledge and commit to the role NRENs play in advancing science towards addressing the SDG (Sustainable Development Goals). For successful collaboration and direction, it is fundamental that policies within one country are aligned with one another. Alignment on continental level is crucial for the future Pan-African African Open Science Platform to be successful. Both the HIPSSA ((Harmonization of ICT Policies in Sub-Saharan Africa)3 project and WATRA (the West Africa Telecommunications Regulators Assembly)4, have made progress towards the regulation of the telecom sector, and in particular of bottlenecks which curb the development of competition among ISPs. A study under HIPSSA identified potential bottlenecks in access at an affordable price to the international capacity of submarine cables and suggested means and tools used by regulators to remedy them. Work on the recommended measures and making them operational continues in collaboration with WATRA. In addition to sufficient bandwidth and connectivity, high-performance computing facilities and services in support of data sharing are also required. The South African National Integrated Cyberinfrastructure System5 (NICIS) has made great progress in planning and setting up a cyberinfrastructure ecosystem in support of collaborative science and data sharing. The regional Southern African Development Community6 (SADC) Cyber-infrastructure Framework provides a valuable roadmap towards high-speed Internet, developing human capacity and skills in ICT technologies, high- performance computing and more. The following countries have been identified as having high-performance computing facilities, some as a result of the Square Kilometre Array7 (SKA) partnership: Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mozambique, Mauritius, Namibia, South Africa, Tunisia, and Zambia. More and more NRENs – especially the Level 6 NRENs 8 (Algeria, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, and recently Zambia) – are exploring offering additional services; also in support of data sharing and transfer. The following NRENs already allow for running data-intensive applications and sharing of high-end computing assets, bio-modelling and computation on high-performance/ supercomputers: KENET (Kenya), TENET (South Africa), RENU (Uganda), ZAMREN (Zambia), EUN (Egypt) and ARN (Algeria). Fifteen higher education training institutions from eight African countries (Botswana, Benin, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan, and Tanzania) have been identified as offering formal courses on data science. In addition to formal degrees, a number of international short courses have been developed and free international online courses are also available as an option to build capacity and integrate as part of curricula. The small number of higher education or research intensive institutions offering data science is however insufficient, and there is a desperate need for more training in data science. The CODATA-RDA Schools of Research Data Science aim at addressing the continental need for foundational data skills across all disciplines, along with training conducted by The Carpentries 9 programme (specifically Data Carpentry 10 ). Thus far, CODATA-RDA schools in collaboration with AOSP, integrating content from Data Carpentry, were presented in Rwanda (in 2018), and during17-29 June 2019, in Ethiopia. Awareness regarding Open Science (including Open Data) is evident through the 12 Open Science-related Open Access/Open Data/Open Science declarations and agreements endorsed or signed by African governments; 200 Open Access journals from Africa registered on the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ); 174 Open Access institutional research repositories registered on openDOAR (Directory of Open Access Repositories); 33 Open Access/Open Science policies registered on ROARMAP (Registry of Open Access Repository Mandates and Policies); 24 data repositories registered with the Registry of Data Repositories (re3data.org) (although the pilot project identified 66 research data repositories); and one data repository assigned the CoreTrustSeal. Although this is a start, far more needs to be done to align African data curation and research practices with global standards. Funding to conduct research remains a challenge. African researchers mostly fund their own research, and there are little incentives for them to make their research and accompanying data sets openly accessible. Funding and peer recognition, along with an enabling research environment conducive for research, are regarded as major incentives. The landscape report concludes with a number of concerns towards sharing research data openly, as well as challenges in terms of Open Data policy, ICT infrastructure supportive of data sharing, capacity building, lack of skills, and the need for incentives. Although great progress has been made in terms of Open Science and Open Data practices, more awareness needs to be created and further advocacy efforts are required for buy-in from African governments. A federated African Open Science Platform (AOSP) will not only encourage more collaboration among researchers in addressing the SDGs, but it will also benefit the many stakeholders identified as part of the pilot phase. The time is now, for governments in Africa, to acknowledge the important role of science in general, but specifically Open Science and Open Data, through developing and aligning the relevant policies, investing in an ICT infrastructure conducive for data sharing through committing funding to making NRENs financially sustainable, incentivising open research practices by scientists, and creating opportunities for more scientists and stakeholders across all disciplines to be trained in data management.
