Abstract:
The impact of the mushy zone parameter (Amushy) and the chosen numerical model during the solidification of a commercial paraffin-type phase change material (PCM) in a vertical cylinder under T-history conditions was examined through numerical simulations. The cooling process was modeled using three methods implemented in the CFD software ANSYS Fluent 2020 R2: the enthalpy–porosity method, the apparent heat capacity (AHC) method, and a new model proposed by the authors which incorporates heat capacity directly into ANSYS Fluent.

Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have a great potential on the providing balance of energy demand/supply, while also contributing to net-zero emissions, a reduced carbon footprint, and a greener environment. Paraffin phase change materials have emerged as a prominent material for TES applications due to its potentially high energy storage density. However, their application is significantly limited by its low thermal conductivity values.

Viscosity is assumed to vary in terms of a continuous pressure function that is valid throughout the channel and the porous layer.

We present an innovative enthalpy method for determining the thermal properties of phase change materials (PCM). The enthalpy-temperature relation in the “mushy” zone is modelled by means of a fifth order Obreshkov polynomial with continuous first and second order derivatives at the zone boundaries. The partial differential equation (PDE) for the conduction of heat is rewritten so that the enthalpy variable is not explicitly present, rendering the equation nonlinear. The thermal conductivity of the PCM is assumed to be temperature dependent and is modelled by a fifth order Obreshkov polynomial

Abstract:
This study reviews the impact of public transit network layout (TNL) on resident mode choice. The review of TNL as a factor uses variables divided into three groups: a variable set without considering the TNL, one considering TNL from the zone level, and one considering TNL from the individual level. Using Baoding’s travel survey data, a Multinomial Logit (MNL) model is used, and the parameter estimation result shows that TNL has significant effect on resident mode choice. Based on parameter estimation, the factors affecting mode choice are further screened. The screened variable set is regard

Abstract:
A unified wave equation of mechanical wave propagation during solidification of an alloy was established and the numerical solution of the wave equation was obtained. A three-element model (KSLS) used to describe the stress–strain constitutive relation of the alloy in the mushy zone was established by the analysis of rheological characteristics of molten melt during solidification. Based on the KSLS model, we could describe the constitutive relation of the liquid alloy, a Maxwell medium, and of the solidified alloy, an elastic medium, by the various Lame coefficients.

Abstract:
The present paper proposes an iterative implicit numerical method for simulating the thaw depth of permafrost soil. For this purpose, the enthalpy-porosity model was used for the phase change process, and the finite difference scheme FTCS (Forward Time Centered Space) was used for discretization. An artificial mushy zone was maintained with the same thickness by keeping the regularization parameter proportional to the temperature gradient. In doing so, we made the scheme more stable and convergence occurred faster. The model accuracy was validated by comparing the numerical results with the an

For a high-speed variable sweep aircraft, the variation characteristics of lift coefficient and drag coefficient with angle of attack were analyzed. Based on the analyzed aerodynamic characteristics, an aerodynamic parameter calculation model was established with Mach number, angle of attack, and deformation rate as independent variables. A no fly zone avoidance strategy with a no fly zone margin is proposed to address the issue of some inter point trajectories not meeting the constraints of the no fly zone when using the pseudospectral method for trajectory design.

Abstract:
The deadzone occurring in a phase-frequency detector (PFD) is a critical parameter that affects the performance of a phase-locked loop (PLL). Though a fixed-delay element reduces the deadzone, it creates an imbalance in the pulse-arrival time and among the up and down signals to the charge pump, which increases the phase noise in the output spectrum of the PLL. Therefore, in this work a new variable-delay element (VDE) is incorporated in the PFD to reduce the dead zone and consequently the phase noise of the PLL. The performance of the proposed PFD incorporated in PLL is analyzed using cadence

For many quasi-brittle materials (such as rock, ceramic and concrete) in pure bending state, the material on the tensile side will fail firstly since the compressive strength can be ten times the tensile strength. After tensile strain localization zone is initiated in the midspan of the beam, its propagation direction will be perpendicular to the neutral axis. In the paper, using nonlocal theory or gradient-dependent plasticity, the distributions of local plastic tensile strain and local damage variable in tensile strain localization zone of a pure bending beam are analyzed theoretically.

The model parameters were fitted to stress–strain histories from uniaxial strain-controlled cyclic tests.
