ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to select, using operational research techniques, management regimes of Pinus taeda L. that maximize the revenue generated by the wood, considering different attractiveness rates. The OpTimber-LP® software, which performs the simulations using SisPinus® software, was used for forest optimization. The regimes consisted of different combinations of forest sites, planting densities, thinning regimes and clearcutting ages, totaling 17,760 regimes per site. Wood production was quantified and evaluated by assortment classes. Planting, thinning and harvesting c

An economic analysis of loblolly pine (Pinustaeda L.) plantation management options with stochastic sawtimber and pulpwood stumpage price trends is conducted using the North Carolina State University Plantation Management Simulator, a widely used model in the southeastern United States. Results for stands with a range of site indices suggest that regimes with high planting densities combined with commercial thinning options have higher expected present values than do regimes without thinning options, especially in plantations with hardwood competition.

Abstract:
Climate change is producing threats to forests’ capacity of regulating water regimes. Therefore, thinning strategies can be applied to mitigate climate change impacts more efficiently by providing more spaces for trees to utilize resources e.g., water and nutrients. This study examined the effects of different thinning intensities and intervals on water characteristics and biomass growth of a 75-year-old Norway spruce (Picea abies) stand in the Black Forest, Germany. Here we used a water and management sensitive update of the process-based forest growth model 3PG, 3PG-Hydro. We applied light (

Abstract:
A silvicultural regime refers to the planned sequence of treatments applied to a forest stand, which mainly includes pruning and thinning regimes. The latter is a silvicultural practice that is important for the management of forest growth, composition, structure, and health. Despite the ecological and silvicultural importance of thinning, its limited application in plantation forests has constrained the effective management of woody species density and abundance. Thus, the aim of this research was to assess the influence of the thinning regime on woody species density and abundance. This stud

Simulation results were then combined with an investment analysis program to calculate the net present value of each strategy.

Abstract:
Abstract The enhanced heat transfer behavior of laminar shear-thinning, power-law fluid flows in sinusoidal corrugated-plate channels is investigated. With duct plates at uniform wall temperature, periodically developed flows are considered for a wide range of channel corrugation aspect ratio (0 ≤ γ ≤ 1), flow rates (10 ≤ Reg ≤ 1500), and pseudo-plastic flow behavior indices (n = 0.5, 0.8, and 1.0). Typical velocity and temperature distributions, along with extended results for isothermal friction factor f and Collburn factor j are presented. The enhanced forced convection is found to be stron

Abstract:
Abstract Slug flow is one of the most common flow patterns in non-Newtonian two-phase flow in pipes. It is a very common occurrence in gas-liquid two-phase flow in the pipe. Usually, it is an unfavorable flow pattern due to its unsteady nature, intermittency as well as high pressure drop. The differences between slug flow and elongated bubble flow are not clear because usually these two types of flow combined under one flow category. In general, these two-phase flow regimes are commonly defined as intermittent flow. In the present study, pressure gradient, and wave behavior in slug flow have b

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper, we have applied a recently-developed numerical technique to study the three-dimensional dynamics of a confined air bubble rising in shear thinning and shear-thickening power-law fluids. The method is a blend of Volume of Fluid and Level Set methods and incorporates a Sharp Surface Force Method (SSF) for surface tension forces by solving a second Pressure Poisson Equation (PPE). The gas-liquid interface is captured by an equation for the liquid volume fraction and advected using the geometry reconstruction method. The interface normal and curvature are computed using lev

Abstract:
The present study investigates numerically the aerodynamic breakup of Diesel droplets for a wide range of ambient pressures encountered in engineering applications relevant to oil burners and internal combustion engines. The numerical model solves the Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) methodology utilized for capturing the interface between the liquid and the surrounding gas. An adaptive local grid refinement technique is used to increase the accuracy of the numerical results around the interface. The Weber (We) numbers examined are in the range of 14 to 279 which

Abstract:
Abstract The laminar flow of a nonlinear viscoplastic fluid through an annular sudden expansion was investigated experimentally. In addition to a yield-stress shear-thinning fluid, the flow of a Newtonian fluid through the same expansion was also studied to form a baseline for comparison. Velocity vectors were measured on the vertical center plane using digital particle image velocimetry (PIV). From these measurements, two-dimensional contours of axial and radial velocity as well as the stream function were calculated covering the separated, reattached and redeveloping flow regions.

Abstract:
In the present paper, the algorithm proposed by Giacopini et. al. [1], based on a mass-conserving formulation of the Reynolds equation using the concept of complementarity is suitably extended to include the effects of compressibility, piezoviscosity and shear-thinning on the lubricant properties. This improved algorithm is employed to analyse the performance of the lubricated small end and big end bearings of a connecting rod of a high performance motorbike engine. The application of the algorithm proposed to both the small end and the big end of a con-rod is challenging because of the differ
