We report on the isogeometric residual-based variational multiscale (VMS) Large Eddy Simulation of a fully developed turbulent flow over a wavy wall. To assess the predictive capability of the VMS modeling framework, we compare its predictions against the results from direct numerical simulation (DNS) and, when available, against experimental measurements. We use C quadratic B-spline basis func...

We describe an analysis of the galaxy–absorber cross-correlation function ξga(v, ρ) as a function of velocity separation v, impact parameter separation ρ, and absorber Lyα equivalent width W on impact parameter scales that extend up to ≈ 1 h Mpc.

In this paper, an ultra-wideband metamaterial absorber is designed and simulated. The proposed absorber is planar and low profile. It is made of a copper sheet coated with two dielectric layers. Each unit cell of the metamaterial structure is composed of multiple metallic split rings, which are patterned on the top and middle boundaries of the dielectrics. The designed absorber utilizes differe...

The non-linear vibrations of a barrel, induced by the interaction with a high-speed moving projectile, negatively affect the shooting accuracy of a weapon. This study presents a new method that determines the non-linear behavior of the barrel with a passive vibration absorber and optimizes the absorber using the genetic algorithm (GA). Since both the barrel geometry and its coupling with the ab...

To simulate the interaction of buried defects and absorber features in EUV masks, a full three-dimensional, fast, integrated, simulator based on ray tracing and a thin mask model is presented. This simulator allows rapid assessment of the effects of buried defects on EUV printing. This new simulator, RADICAL (Rapid Absorber Defect Interaction Computation for Advanced Lithography), gives a 450X ...

Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) are thin-film, superconducting resonators, which are attractive for making large detector arrays due to their natural frequency domain multiplexing at GHz frequencies. For X-ray to IR wavelengths, MKIDs can provide high-resolution energy and timing information for each incoming photon. By fabricating strip detectors consisting of a rectangular abso...

The main objective of this article is to present the semi-active vibration control using an electro-rheological fluid embedded sandwich structure for a cantilever beam. ER fluid is a smart material, which cause the suspended particles polarize and connect each other to form chain. The stiffness and damping coefficients of the ER fluid can be changed in 10 micro seconds; therefore, ERF is suitab...

To simulate the interaction of buried defects and absorber features in EUV masks and their effects on projection printing, a prototype 2D, fast, integrated, simulator based on ray tracing and a thin mask model is presented. RADICAL (Rapid Absorber Defect Interaction Computation for Advanced Lithography), consists of three sequential steps: the propagation of the mask illumination down through t...

We present spectroscopic observations of the damped Lyα absorber at redshift z = 1.9342 seen in the spectrum of the quasar Q0151+048A. The redshift of the absorber is greater than the redshift of the quasar, so the system resembles the zabs ≈ zem damped absorber at z = 2.81 towards the quasar PKS0528-250. We have previously reported the detection of Lyα emission from the latter absorber, one of...

Dimethyl ether is one of the derivative products coal that will be used as a household fuel substitute for LPG in Indonesia. In addition, it can also working fluid refrigeration system. To understand behavior this refrigerant, simulation was carried out to determine flow pattern dimethyl horizontal evaporator. This study applied an evaporator air conditioner with inside diameter 6.3 and 7.9 mm ...
