in this study, boundary element method was used to model sea wave propagation on a hemisphere shape under water tank and oil-water common surface oscillation in the tank. also, kinematic and dynamic oundary conditions of free surface and common surface of oil and water were discritized by finite difference method. there were some singularities in bem method, which were removed by applying zonin...

The 10.6 km long Sabzkuh water conveyance tunnel is currently under construction in High Zagros structural zone, located in western Iran, has used conventional (in section T1) and mechanized (in section T2) methods. The section T1 of the tunnel driven through alluvial geological units with great complexity in an area high potential for sliding and water-bearing fault which has made the excavati...

In an effort to develop methods based on integrating the subsurface to the atmospheric boundary layer to estimate evaporation, we developed a model based on the coupling of Navier-Stokes free flow and Darcy flow in porous medium. The model was tested using experimental data to study the effect of wind speed on evaporation. The model consists of the coupled equations of mass conservation for two...

Open channel fluid flow principles are applied to understand how helium might behave in the event of a release or spill in a long tunnel enclosure. An example would be helium flowing along the Tevatron accelerator tunnel as a result of some rupture of a header system. Buoyant forces would drive the helium along the ceiling until a vent to atmosphere is reached. An analogy is water flowing up to...

qomroud water conveyance tunnel (lot 1&2) with the length of 16 kilometers is considered as one of the greatest development and national projects in iran. since about 2 kilometers of tunnel pass through alluvium and the rest of the tunnel pass through various types of geological units, and due to the complexity of geological condition and variety of effective criteria, suitable selection of...

This thesis develops analytical solutions for estimating the bending moments and axial loads in a buried pipeline due to ground movements caused by tunnel construction in soft ground. The solutions combine closed-form, analytical solutions for tunnel-induced, free-field ground deformations in a plane orthogonal to the heading (Pinto and Whittle; 2001) with Winkler models for pipe-soil interacti...

A new method is offered to simulate heat transfer processes in nonequilibrium viscous shock layers near the catalytic body surface at hypcrsonic wind tunnel and free natural flight conditions. The method is based on computations of nonequilibrium parameters in thin viscous sbock layers, and on an analogy with flows that arise behind normal shock waves. The obtained simplified relationships betw...

We present tunneling experiments on Fe~001!/MgO~20 Å!/FeCo~001! single-crystal epitaxial junctions of high quality grown by sputtering and laser ablation. Tunnel magnetoresistance measurements give 60% at 30 K, to be compared with 13% obtained recently on ~001!-oriented Fe/amorphous-Al2O3 /FeCo tunnel junctions. This difference demonstrates that the spin polarization of tunneling electrons is n...

‎the water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (isph)‎. ‎in the current isph method‎, ‎the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...
