Surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) is capable of identifying molecular fingerprints by resonant detection of infrared vibrational modes through the coupling with plasmonic modes of metallic nanostructures. However, SEIRA for on-chip gas sensing is still not very successful due to the intrinsically weak light-matter interaction between photons and gas molecules and the technical challe...

The present study numerically investigated the deformation of free-surface two-phase fluid flow in a tank which is considered as simplified blast furnace hearth. Actually, fluids existing hearth are gas, slag and hot metal from top to bottom. However, only gas cold molten iron tank. porosity substitute for void volume formed by packed bed particles such cokes. single-phase without analyzed comp...

In hot forming process, the workpiece undergoes plastic deformation at high temperature and the microstructure of the workpiece changes according to the plastic deformation. These changes affect the mechanical properties of workpiece. In order to optimize this process, both the plastic deformation of workpiece and its microstructural changes should be taken into consideration. Since material be...

We investigate the evolution of angular momentum in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic (SPH) simulations of galaxy formation, paying particular attention to artificial numerical effects. We find that a cold gas disc forming in an ambient hot gas halo receives a strong hydrodynamic torque from the hot gas. By splitting the hydrodynamic force into artificial viscosity and pressure gradients, we find ...

The paper describes special method of parametric optimization and its application to the solution of practical engineering problems in the field of metal induction heating before hot forming operations. Numerical examples, that help to illustrate the methodology of proposed optimal control techniques, verify their validity and represent descriptions of practical applications.
