The compression index and recompression index are one of the important compressibility parameters to determine the settlement calculation for fine-grained soil layers. These parameters can be determined by carrying out laboratory oedometer test on undisturbed samples; however, the test is quite time-consuming and expensive. Therefore, many empirical formulas based on regression analysis have be...

In this paper, the laminar incompressible flow equations are solved by an upwind least-squares meshless method. Due to the difficulties in generating quality meshes, particularly in complex geometries, a meshless method is increasingly used as a new numerical tool. The meshless methods only use clouds of nodes to influence the domain of every node. Thus, they do not require the nodes to be conn...

Pneumatic artificial muscles exhibit highly non-linear static characteristics especially due to inherent properties of their materials and compressibility of air. Therefore, it is difficult to control them without adequate modeling and simulation. The paper deals with the numerical approximation of the static characteristics of McKibben pneumatic artificial muscle. The muscle force dependence o...

Artificial compressibility methods aim to reduce the stiffness of compressible Navier-Stokes equations by artificially decreasing velocity acoustic waves in fluid. This approach has originally been developed as an alternative incompressible this avoids resolution a Poisson equation. paper extends method anisothermal low Mach number flows, allowing simulations subsonic flows submitted large temp...

The existence and uniqueness of adapted solutions to the backward stochastic Navier-Stokes equationwith artificial compressibility in two-dimensional bounded domains are shown byMintyBrowder monotonicity argument, finite-dimensional projections, and truncations. Continuity of the solutions with respect to terminal conditions is given, and the convergence of the system to an incompressible flow ...
