The applicability of the waterfall model was tested using the Starling resistor and different viscosities of fluids to vary the Reynolds number. The waterfall model proved adequate to describe flow in the Starling resistor model only at very low Reynolds numbers (Reynolds number less than 1). Blood flow characterized by such low Reynolds numbers occurs only in the microvasculature. Thus, it is ...

Holyoak and Thagard proposed that the retrieval and mapping tasks of analogy can be viewed as constraint satisfaction problems, and described a connectionist implementation of their proposal. In this paper, we describe another constraint satisfaction method for the two tasks in the context of visual analogy: in our method, the source cases are organized in a discrimination tree, and all the sou...

ion over Analog and New Model New Model Figure 3: Model-Based Analogy in IDEAL Figure 3 illustrates a portion of IDEAL's computational process that pertains to the learning, reminding and use of GTMs in analogical design. A design problem to IDEAL speci es the functional requirements of the desired device together with behavioral and structural constraints (if any). For example, one design prob...

Requests for recommendation can be seen as a form of query for candidate items, ranked by relevance. Users are however o‰en unable to crisply de€ne what they are looking for. One of the core concepts of natural communication for describing and explaining complex information needs in an intuitive fashion are analogies: e.g., “What is to Christopher Nolan as is 2001: A Space Odyssey to Stanley Ku...

In the design of flow geometries consisting channels such as high-temperature gas heat exchangers, a great number parameters can be chosen, why solving turbulent Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations by CFD coupled with other physics become computational demanding. Therefore, we here propose method for significant reduction resources and consequent high speed. This is done using less...

In this paper, the method of generating inflow turbulence based on fluctuation library (TFL) in direct numerical simulation (DNS) hypersonic turbulent boundary layer (TBL) is investigated. The application TFL to DNS a supersonic TBL shows that, although there are significant differences freestream between and target TBL, flow could successfully develop downstream as fluctuations suitably scaled...

Flow over micro-scale airfoils is investigated in order to understand the aerodynamic issues related to micro air vehicle design and performance. Studies have shown that such low Reynolds number flow exhibits rarefied phenomena and a flat plate having a thickness ratio of 5% has better aerodynamic performance than conventional streamlined airfoils. This paper simulates gas flows over a 5% flat ...

this paper presents the results of a numerical study on the heat transfer performance and the removal process of fluid particles under the influence of magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection in a horizontal channel with an open cavity. the bottom wall of the cavity is heated at a constant temperature (th) while the top wall of the channel is maintained at a relatively low temperature (tc). air wi...
