flood routing has many applications in engineering projects and helps designers in understanding the flood flow characteristics in river flows. floods are taken unsteady flows that vary by time and location. equations governing unsteady flows in waterways are continuity and momentum equations which in case of one-dimensional flow the saint-venant hypothesis is considered. dynamic wave model as ...

A crucial challenge in future smart energy grids is the largescale coordination of distributed energy demand and generation. The well-known PowerMatcher is a promising approach that integrates demand and supply flexibility in the operation of the electricity system through dynamic pricing and a hierarchical bidding coordination scheme. However, as the PowerMatcher focuses on short-term coordina...

In conventional power plants trash-racks are provided at the intakes to protect the turbines. In pumped storage plants, the draft tube or tailrace must also have trash-racks to protect the units while pumping. Because the loads believed to cause many failures of trash-racks are dynamic in nature, it is important to understand the dynamic characteristics of trash-rack structures in general and a...

Cracks cause to change dynamic response of beams and make discontinuity in slope of the deflection of the beams. The dynamic analysis of the Euler-Bernoulli cracked beam on the elastic foundation subjected to the concentrated load is presented in this paper. The stiffness of the elastic foundation and elastic supports influence on vibrational characteristics of the cracked beam. The Dynamic Gre...

Abstract   We extend the concept of dynamic pricing by integrating it with “overselling with opportunistic cancellation” option, within the framework of dynamic policy. Under this strategy, to sell a stock of perishable product (or capacity) two prices are offered to customers at any given time period. Customers are categorized as high-paying and low-paying ones. The seller deliberately oversel...

The dynamic response of the railway under accelerated moving load using Dynamic Green Function is presented in this paper. For this purpose, an exact and direct modeling technique is introduced for the railway modeling as the damped Euler-Bernoulli beam on the partial Winkler foundation with arbitrary boundary conditions subjected to the moving load. The effects of the elastic coefficient of Wi...

the complete 3d nonlinear dynamic problem of extensible, flexible risers conveying fluid is considered. for describing the dynamics of the system, the newtonian derivation procedure is followed. the velocity field inside the pipe formulated using hydrostatic and bernoulli equations. the hydrodynamic effects of external fluids are taken into consideration through the nonlinear drag forces in var...

dynamic analysis of two-dimensional elasticity problems using the isogeometric analysis method and its comparison with the finite element method is the subject of this research. for this purpose, formulation of the governing differential equation is obtained by using the b-spline basis functions. some numerical examples employing consistent and lumped mass matrices are presented in order to com...

A numerical investigation of entropy generation in laminar forced convection of gas flow over a backward facing step in a horizontal duct under bleeding condition is presented. For calculation of entropy generation from the second law of thermodynamics in a forced convection flow, the velocity and temperature distributions are primary needed. For this purpose, the three-dimensional Cartesian co...
