MICROCOMPUTER GRID GENERATION FOR TWO-DIMENSIONAL AERODYNAMIC APPLICATIONS

Molecular dynamics-based unstructured grid generation method for aerodynamic applications

A new approach to triangular mesh generation based on the molecular dynamics method is proposed. Mesh nodes are considered as interacting particles. After the node placement by molecular dynamics simulation, well-shaped triangles or tetrahedra can be created after connecting the nodes by Delaunay triangulation or tetrahedrization. Some examples are considered in order to illustrate themethod’s ...

PLANET: some experience in creating an integrated system for repertory grid applications on a microcomputer

Direct interaction between patients and computers has now been shown to be successful and acceptable in an experimental environment. Automated psychological testing has also been widely validated against experts administering the same test. However, there are problems in making available what are essentially computer-based research tools to a diverse community of users, geographically widesprea...

Green Energy Generation in Buildings: Grid-Tied Distributed Generation Systems (DGS) With Energy Storage Applications to Sustain the Smart Grid Transformation

The challenge of electricity distribution’s upgrade to incorporate new technologies is big, and electric utilities are mandated to work diligently on this agenda, thus making investments to ensure that current networks maintain their electricity supply commitments secure and reliable in face of disruptions and adverse environmental conditions from a variety of sources. The paper presents a new ...
