Ocean‐Wave‐Atmosphere Interaction Processes in a Fully Coupled Modeling System

Massively Parallel Fully Coupled Implicit Modeling of Coupled Thermal-hydrological-mechanical Processes for Enhanced Geothermal System Reservoirs

Development of enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) will require creation of a reservoir of sufficient volume to enable commercial-scale heat transfer from the reservoir rocks to the working fluid. A key assumption associated with reservoir creation/stimulation is that sufficient rock volumes can be hydraulically fractured via both tensile and shear failure, and more importantly by reactivation of...

Toward a Fully Lagrangian Atmospheric Modeling System

An improved treatment of advection is essential for atmospheric transport and chemistry models. Eulerian treatments are generally plagued with instabilities, unrealistic negative constituent values, diffusion, and dispersion errors. A higher-order Eulerian model improves one error at significant cost but magnifies another error. The cost of semi-Lagrangian models is too high for many applicatio...

Fully Coupled Computational Modeling of Transport Phenomena in Microfluidics Applications

Microfluidics (MF) applications encompass a plethora of physical phenomena, which makes their modeling an extremely difficult task. A multitude of driving forces (pressure gradients, electric field, surface tension etc.) are utilized in various combinations to achieve best results. Also rigorously utilized are the electro-chemical properties of the resident fluid and analytes, which are manifes...

Power System Modeling for a Fully Transparent Distribution Management System

Fully integrated distribution management systems (DMSs) not only require a transparent data architecture. They also need efficient procedures connecting base system functions with advanced application functions to ensure data consistency. This paper will present a new algorithm which enables power system modeling for a fully transparent DMS.
