‎the water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (isph)‎. ‎in the current isph method‎, ‎the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...

Backscattering enhancement phenomenon in a random medium is studied by numerically analyzing a bistatic radar cross-section of a circular cylinder, under the condition that the spatial coherence length of the incident waves around the cylinder is larger enough than the size of the cylinder. The numerical analysis shows that the phenomenon may occur not only in the backward direction but also in...

The scattering enhancement phenomenon is studied by numerically analyzing a bistatic radar cross-section (RCS) of a circular cylinder in a strong continuous random medium, under the condition that the spatial coherence length of the incident waves around the cylinder is larger enough than the size of the cylinder. The numerical analysis shows such a new result that the scattering is not enhance...

The idea of using acoustically induced Doppler spectra as a means for target detection and identification is introduced. An analytical solution for the calculation of the bistatic scattered Doppler spectrum from an acoustically excited, vibrating metallic circular cylinder is presented. First the electromagnetic scattering solution of a slightly deformed circular cylinder is obtained using a pe...

Cylindrical structures are widely employed in the offshore engineering. How to protect the structures in real sea environment is a vital issue for scientists and engineers. In this paper, the interaction of short-crested waves with a concentric surface-piercing two-cylinder system is studied based on linear wave theory using the scaled boundary finite-element method (SBFEM), a novel semi-analyt...

Gårding et al. (Vis Res 1995;35:703-722) proposed a two-stage theory of stereopsis. The first uses horizontal disparities for relief computations after they have been subjected to a process called disparity correction that utilises vertical disparities. The second stage, termed disparity normalisation, is concerned with computing metric representations from the output of stage one. It uses vert...

In this paper, the average heat transfer characteristics for a cross flow cylinder of 16 mm diameter in a vertical pipe has been studied for single-phase flow (water/oil) and multicomponent (non-boiling) flow (water-air, water-oil, oil-air and water-oil-air). The cylinder is uniformly heated by electrical heater placed at the centre of the element. The results show that the values of average he...

A variational principie is presented which characterises steady motions of inviscid, rotating, stratitied fluids. This is used to construct nonlinear solutions corresponding to stationary cold-core and warm-core eddies above topography in a uniform stream. Nurnerical resultç are presented for the specific case of a right circular cylinder. The results show that below a critica1 free-strearn vel...
