The simulation of complex fluid flows involving large variations of the computational domain, constitutes an open challenge using most numerical techniques. The Particle Finite Element Method allows to merge the advantages of the “standard” FEM with the ones of meshless methods and it is naturally well suited to address this category of phenomena [3], [6]. At the current stage it still remains ...

Multi-task learning is motivated by the observation that humans bring to bear what they know about related problems when solving new ones. Similarly, deep neural networks can profit from related tasks by sharing parameters with other networks. However, humans do not consciously decide to transfer knowledge between tasks. In Natural Language Processing (NLP), it is hard to predict if sharing wil...

wall-jet flow is an important flow field in hydraulic engineering, and its applications include flow from the bottom outlet of dams and sluice gates. in this paper, the plane turbulent wall jet in shallow tailwater is simulated by solving the reynolds averaged navier-stokes equations using the standard  turbulence closure model. this study aims to explore the ability of a time splitting method ...

In addition to locality, data access concurrency has emerged as a pillar factor of memory performance. In this research, we introduce a concurrency-aware solution, the memory Sluice Gate Theory, for solving the outstanding memory wall problem. Sluice gates are designed to control data transfer at each memory layer dynamically, and a global control algorithm, named layered performance matching, ...

We combine non-hydrostatic flow simulations of the free surface with a discharge model based on elementary gate flow equations for decision support in operation of hydraulic structure gates. A water level-based gate control used in most of today’s general practice does not take into account the fact that gate operation scenarios producing similar total discharged volumes and similar water level...
