A new approach to calculate the axially symmetric binary gas flow is proposed Dalton’s law for partial pressures contributed by each species of a binary gas mixture (argon and helium) is incorporated into numerical simulation of rarefied axially symmetric flow inside a rotating cylinder using the time relaxed Monte-Carlo (TRMC) scheme and the direct simulation Monte-Carlo (DSMC) method. The res...

This paper presents simulations of the aerothermodynamics of the Apollo Command Module under rarefied conditions with the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. Relevant details of the application setup and simulation performance are presented. Threedimensional windtunnel model and flight simulations are made. For the windtunnel model simulations, the direct simulation Monte Carlo method and an ...

High atomic number and density of dental implants leads to major problems at providing an accurate dose distribution in radiotherapy and contouring tumors and organs caused by the artifact in head and neck tumors. The limits and deficiencies of the algorithms using in the treatment planning systems can lead to large errors in dose calculation, and this may adversely affect the patient's treatme...

The use of Monte Carlo simulation for evaluation of financial risk of an information technology project selection decision is described. A major Thai bank considered the opportunity to expand credit card operations through information technology (IT). Alternatives considered were in-house development and outsourcing. There were many strategic reasons for the initiative. However, there were also...

introduction: in this paper, by complete definition of human eye containing the various parts and their materials, the difference between this model and a homogeneous water phantom are compared for two ophthalmic plaques using 125i and 103pd. material and methods: the simulation of the two phantoms were performed in the mcnp-4c code and by using the geometry of a three-dimensional eye, differen...

some of the most destructive accidents of 1980s and 90s which occurred in process industries were domino accidents. although domino accidents are among the most destructive industrial accidents, there are not much pioneering works done on quantification of them. the analytical formulation of the domino accidents is usually complex and need a deep knowledge of probability rules. even if the case...

in this paper, we focus on a continuously deteriorating critical equipment which its failure cannot be measured by cost criterion. for these types of systems like military systems, nuclear systems, etc it is extremely important to avoid failure during the actual operation of the system. in this paper we propose an approach which constrains failure probability to a pre-specified value. this valu...
