The governing equations in finite volume form are solved by two-step Runge-Kutta scheme with implicit residual smoothing. The eddy viscous is obtained using the Baldwin-Lomax model. A prediction of the 3-D turbulent flow and the performance in the “all-over controlled vortex distribution” centrifugal impeller with a vaneless diffuser has been made for the compressor at design and off-design condition. The predicted effi-ciency is a little higher than the experiment data. These results suggest that the present calculation code is able to determine the flow development in the impeller and also the turbulence model in the centrifugal im-peller should be improved.展开更多

Although this concern has been identified by many research studies in the past, none of them suggested a comprehensive methodology to simulate from a 3-D perspective concurrently both the cross-section design and the vehicle dynamics in space during emergency braking conditions. The proposed methodology can accurately perform SSD adequacy investigation in any 3-D road environment where the ground, road and roadside elements are inserted by identifying areas of interrupted vision lines between driver and obstacle being less than the required distance necessary to bring the vehicle to a stop condition. The present approach provides flexibility among every road design and/or vehicle dynamic parameter inserted, as well as direct overview regarding design elements that restrict the driver＇s vision and create SSD inadequacies. As a result, precious guidance is provided to the designer for further alignment improvement but mostly an accurate aid to implement geometric design control criteria with respect to both existing as well as new road sections is delivered. The efficiency of the suggested methodology is demonstrated through a case study.展开更多

First the output torque is too small. Second, the attitude is difficult to be accurately detected. The new three-dimen- sional magnetic pole array can solve these major problems. The new actuator features an outer rotor with multiple permanent magnet （PM） poles. Using an analytical solution and the finite element so- lution simulation, the feasibility of the approach is verified. A prototype was developed, tested, and experiments were conducted to obtain the practical value of the magnetic flux density.展开更多

It is one of the key technologies to resolve the large data of stereo vision communication. Now depth estimation still has some problems, such as occlusion, fuzzy edge, real-time processing, etc. Many algorithms have been proposed base on software, however the performance of the computer configurations limits the software processing speed. The other resolution is hardware design and the great developments of the digital signal processor （DSP）, and application specific integrated circuit （ASIC） and field programmable gate array （FPGA） provide the opportunity of flexible applications. In this work, by analyzing the procedures of depth estimation, the proper algorithms which can be used in hardware design to execute real-time depth estimation are proposed. The different methods of calibration, matching and post-processing are analyzed based on the hardware design requirements. At last some tests for the algorithm have been analyzed. The results show that the algorithms proposed for hardware design can provide credited depth map for further view synthesis and are suitable for hardware design.展开更多

The overall relations between the positions of 2-D boundary elements are considered instead of only the relations between the center-points of the elements, and a new method of cube partitioning is introduced. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate that the method is accurate and has nearly linear computational growth as O(n), where n is the number of panels/boundary elements. The proposed method is more accurate and much faster than Fastcap.展开更多
