Nonlinear two-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard convection with periodic boundary conditions in the horizontal is studied for spatial periods near the 1:2 steady state mode interaction. The boundary conditions at the bottom are no-slip, and convection is driven by a fixed imposed temperature difference across the layer. Homotopic continuation is used to continue the boundary conditions at the top fro...

We apply the method of self-consistent bounds to prove the existence of multiple steady state bifurcations for Kuramoto-Sivashinski PDE on the line with odd and periodic boundary conditions.

The mathematical modeling of a gas network is a powerful tool in order to identify the behavior of system under the different conditions. The modeling can be performed both for the steady state and unsteady state conditions. It is possible to use the fluid flow basic governing equations or the electrical analogy concept for developing the model. The second approach provides a simpler and more r...

this paper discusses the performance evaluation and availability analysis of ammonia synthesis unit of a fertilizer plant. the fertilizer plant is a complex and repairable engineering system comprises of various units viz. shell gasification and carbon recovery, desulphurization, co-shift conversion, decarbonation, nitrogen wash and ammonia synthesis etc. one of the most important functionaries...

This paper studies the nonlinear vibration analysis of a simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on a nonlinear elastic foundation under compressive axial load using nonlinear normal modes concept in the case of three-to-one (3:1) internal resonance. The beam’s governing nonlinear PDE of motion and also its boundary conditions are derived and then solved using the method of Multiple Time ...

 An equation-oriented approach was developed for steady state flowsheeting of a commercial methanol plant. The loop consists of fixed bed reactor, flash separator, preheater, coolers, and compressor. For steady sate flowsheeting of the plant mathematical model of reactor and other units are needed. Reactor used in loop is a Lurgi type and its configuration is rather complex. Previously reactor ...

Earth-fill dams stability in steady state seepage condition is very important, especially during earthquakes. Numerical software analyses require accurate and realistic modeling of construction stages. Since earth-fill dams are constructed in different layers, so these conditions should be considered in software modeling to achieve a reasonable design. In this study, an earth-fill dam is modele...

this paper presents the steady state behavior and maintenance planning of the bleaching system in a paper plant. the paper plant comprises of various systems including feeding, chipping, digesting, washing, bleaching, screening, stock preparation and paper making, etc. one of the most important functionaries of a paper plant, on which quality of paper depends, is the bleaching system, where rem...
