On Lagrange-Projection Schemes for Shallow Water Flows Over Movable Bottom with Suspended and Bedload Transport

In the present work we aim to simulate shallow water flows over movable bottom with suspended and bedload transport.In order to numerically approximate such a system,we proceed step by step.We start by considering shallow water equations with non-constant density of the mixture water-sediment.Then,the Exner equation is included to take into account bedload sediment transport.Finally,source terms for friction,erosion and deposition processes are considered.Indeed,observe that the sediment particle could go in suspension into the water or being deposited on the bottom.For the numerical scheme,we rely on well-balanced Lagrange-projection methods.In particular,since sediment transport is generally a slow process,we aim to develop semi-implicit schemes in order to obtain fast simulations.The Lagrange-projection splitting is well-suited for such a purpose as it entails a decomposition of the(fast)acoustic waves and the(slow)material waves of the model.Hence,in subsonic regimes,an implicit approximation of the acoustic equations allows us to neglect the corresponding CFL condition and to obtain fast numerical schemes with large time step.

Enrichment factors of movable hydrocarbons in lacustrine shale oil and exploration potential of shale oil in Gulong Sag,Songliao Basin,NE China

The geological characteristics and production practices of the major middle-and high-maturity shale oil exploration areas in China are analyzed.Combined with laboratory results,it is clear that three essential conditions,i.e.economic initial production,commercial cumulative oil production of single well,and large-scale recoverable reserves confirmed by the testing production,determine whether the continental shale oil can be put into large-scale commercial development.The quantity and quality of movable hydrocarbons are confirmed to be crucial to economic development of shale oil,and focuses in evaluation of shale oil enrichment area/interval.The evaluation indexes of movable hydrocarbon enrichment include:(1)the material basis for forming retained hydrocarbon,including TOC>2%(preferentially 3%-4%),and typeⅠ-Ⅱkerogens;(2)the mobility of retained hydrocarbon,which is closely related to the hydrocarbon composition and flow behaviors of light/heavy components,and can be evaluated from the perspectives of thermal maturity(Ro),gas-oil ratio(GOR),crude oil density,quality of hydrocarbon components,preservation conditions;and(3)the reservoir characteristics associated with the engineering reconstruction,including the main pore throat distribution zone,reservoir physical properties(including fractures),lamellation feature and diagenetic stage,etc.Accordingly,13 evaluation indexes in three categories and their reference values are established.The evaluation indicates that the light shale oil zones in the Gulong Sag of Songliao Basin have the most favorable enrichment conditions of movable hydrocarbons,followed by light oil and black oil zones,containing 20.8×10^(8) t light oil resources in reservoirs with R_(0)>1.2%,pressure coefficient greater than 1.4,effective porosity greater than 6%,crude oil density less than 0.82 g/cm^(3),and GOR>100 m/m^(3).The shale oil in the Gulong Sag can be explored and developed separately by the categories(resource sweet spot,engineering sweet spot,and tight oil sweet spot)depending on shale oil flowability.The Gulong Sag is the most promising area to achieve large-scale breakthrough and production of continental shale oil in China.

Engineering DNA Materials for Sustainable Data Storage Using a DNA Movable-Type System

DNA molecules are green materials with great potential for high-density and long-term data storage.However,the current data-writing process of DNA data storage via DNA synthesis suffers from high costs and the production of hazards,limiting its practical applications.Here,we developed a DNA movable-type storage system that can utilize DNA fragments pre-produced by cell factories for data writing.In this system,these pre-generated DNA fragments,referred to herein as“DNA movable types,”are used as basic writing units in a repetitive way.The process of data writing is achieved by the rapid assembly of these DNA movable types,thereby avoiding the costly and environmentally hazardous process of de novo DNA synthesis.With this system,we successfully encoded 24 bytes of digital information in DNA and read it back accurately by means of high-throughput sequencing and decoding,thereby demonstrating the feasibility of this system.Through its repetitive usage and biological assembly of DNA movable-type fragments,this system exhibits excellent potential for writing cost reduction,opening up a novel route toward an economical and sustainable digital data-storage technology.

Effect of movability of water on the low-velocity pre-Darcy flow in clay soil

Water seepage in soil is a fundamental problem involving various scientific and engineering fields.According to the literature,low-velocity water seepage in low-permeability porous media,such as clay,does not follow Darcy's law,also known as pre-Darcy flow.The formation of immovable water due to water adsorption on the pore wall is believed to be responsible for the formation of pre-Darcy flow.However,this view lacks direct solid evidence.To investigate the pre-Darcy water flow in clay,head permeability experiments are conducted on six clay samples with different densities.The results indicate that water seepage in clay at low hydraulic gradients does not follow Darcy's law.A clear nonlinear relationship between flow velocity and hydraulic gradient is observed.Water flow in clay can be divided into the pre-Darcy flow and Darcy flow regions by the critical hydraulic gradient,which is 10-12 for the Albic soil with dry density between 1.3 g/cm^(3)and 1.8 g/cm^(3).According to the disjoining pressure theory,immovable water due to water adsorption on the pore wall is the primary reason for water flow deviating from Darcy's law in clay.The results indicate that the percentage of movable water ranges from 39.7%to 59.3%for the six samples at a hydraulic gradient of 1.As the hydraulic gradient increases,the percentage of moveable water also increases.Additionally,there is a strong correlation between the percentage of movable water and the variation in hydraulic conductivity with the hydraulic gradient.Furthermore,a quantitative relationship between the percentage of movable water and the hydraulic conductivity has been established.The results of this study suggest that water adsorption on the pore wall not only affects the water movability,but is also closely related to the pre-Darcy flow phenomenon in clay.

Wear Characteristics of the Nuclear Control Rod Drive Mechanism(CRDM)Movable Latch Serviced in High Temperature Water

The current research of nuclear control rod drive mechanism(CRDM)movable latch only makes a simple measurement of wear mass.The wear volume and difference in various claw surfaces are ignored and the degradation mechanism of each claw surface is not clear.In this paper,a detailed degradation analysis was carried out on each claw surface of movable latch combined with wear result and worn morphology.Results indicate that the boundary of carbide is preferred for corrosion because carbide presents a nobler Volta potential compared to the metal matrix or boundary region.Due to the oscillation of drive shaft between the claw surfaces of movable latch,the dominant wear mechanism on the upper surface of claw(USC)and lower surface of claw(LSC)is plastic deformation caused by impact wear.Mechanical impact wear will cause the fragmentation of carbides because of the high hardness and low ductility of carbides.Corrosion promotes the broken carbides to fall off from the metal matrix.The generated fine carbides(abrasive particles)cause extra abrasive wear on USC when the movable brings the drive shaft upward or downward.As a result,USC has a higher wear volume than LSC.This research proposes a method to evaluate the wear on the whole movable latches using a 3D full-size scanner.

Micro-accelerometer Based on Vertically Movable Gate Field Effect Transistor

A vertically movable gate field effect transistor(VMGFET) is proposed and demonstrated for a microaccelerometer application. The VMGFET using air gap as an insulator layer allows the gate to move on the substrate vertically by external forces. Finite element analysis is used to simulate mechanical behaviors of the designed structure. For the simulation, the ground acceleration spectrum of the 1952 Kern County Earthquake is employed to investigate the structural integrity of the sensor in vibration. Based on the simulation, a prototype VMGFET accelerometer is fabricated from silicon on insulator wafer. According to current–voltage characteristics of the prototype VMGFET, the threshold voltage is measured to be 2.32 V, which determines the effective charge density and the mutual transconductance of1.545910-8C cm-2and 6.59 m A V-1, respectively. The device sensitivity is 9.36–9.42 m V g-1in the low frequency,and the first natural frequency is found to be 1230 Hz. The profile smoothness of the sensed signal is in 3 d B range up to1 k Hz.

Dynamic anti-plane characteristic on an infinite piezoelectric medium with a movable rigid cylindrical inclusion

Scattering and dynamic stress concentrations of time harmonic SH-wave in an infinite elastic piezoelectric medium with a movable rigid cylindrical inclusion are studied in this paper with the help of complex variable and wave function expansion method. The relations that a movable rigid cylindrical inclusion depends on intensity of incident wave and electric field are revealed. The expressions of dynamic stress at the edge of the inclusion are obtained. Numerical calculations are made with different wave numbers and different piezoelectric characteristic parameters. The calculating results show that dynamic stress concentrations at the edge of the inclusion have linear dependence on the incident electric field. And dynamic analyses are very important for an infinite piezoelectric medium with a movable rigid cylindrical inclusion at larger piezoelectric characteristic parameters.

Distributed Connectivity Restoration Strategy for Movable Sensor Networks

Failure of one or multiple critical nodes may partition wireless sensor networks into disjoint segments, and thus brings negative effect on the applications. We propose DCRS, a Distributed Connectivity Restoration Strategy to tolerate the failure of one critical node. Because of the energy restriction of sensor nodes, the energy overhead of the recovery process should be minimized to extend the lifetime of the network. To achieve it, we first design a novel algorithm to identify 2-critical nodes only relying on the positional information of 1-hop neighbors and some 2-hop neighbors, and then we present the criteria to select an appropriate backup for each critical node. Finally, we improve the cascaded node movement algorithm by determining whether a node can move to another non-adjacent node directly or not to reduce the number of nodes moved. The effectiveness of DCRS is validated through extensive simulation experiments.

Modeling mechanical behaviors of composites with various ratios of matrixeinclusion properties using movable cellular automaton method

Two classes of composite materials are considered: classical metaleceramic composites with reinforcing hard inclusions as well as hard ceramics matrix with soft gel inclusions. Movable cellular automaton method is used for modeling the mechanical behaviors of such different heterogeneous materials. The method is based on particle approach and may be considered as a kind of discrete element method. The main feature of the method is the use of many-body forces of inter-element interaction within the formalism of simply deformable element approximation. It was shown that the strength of reinforcing particles and the width of particle-binder interphase boundaries had determining influence on the service characteristics of metaleceramic composite. In particular, the increasing of strength of carbide inclusions may lead to significant increase in the strength and ultimate strain of composite material. On the example of porous zirconia ceramics it was shown that the change in the mechanical properties of pore surface leads to the corresponding change in effective elastic modulus and strength limit of the ceramic sample. The less is the pore size, the more is this effect. The increase in the elastic properties of pore surface of ceramics may reduce its fracture energy.

Relativistic electron scattering from freely movable proton/μ^+ in the presence of strong laser field

We have investigated the electron scattering from the freely movable spin-1/2 particle in the presence of a linearly polarized laser field in the first Born approximation.The laser-dressed state of electrons is described by a time-dependent wave function which is derived from a perturbation treatment.With the aids of numerical simulations, we explore the dependencies of the differential cross section on the laser field intensity as well as the electron-impact energy.Due to the mobility of the target, the differential cross section of this process is smaller than that of Mott scattering.

Shock-wave impact on the knee joint affected with osteoarthritis and after arthroplasty

Degenerative diseases significantly reduce the quality of human life.Non-invasive treatments are used in the initial stages of osteoarthritis(OA).Total knee arthroplasty is used in the late stages of osteoarthritis of the knee joint.Non-invasive methods based on mechanical action are also used for the rehabilitation of a patient after arthroplasty.This paper presents numerical models of the knee joint with degenerative OA changes and arthroplasty.Using these models,a computational study was made of the influence of the intensity of shock-wave exposure on the conditioning for the regeneration of bone and cartilage tissues.Based on the modeling results,it was found that in the knee joint with degenerative OA changes,conditions for the regeneration of cartilage and meniscus tissues were fulfilled under medium and highintensity loading.Under high-intensity loading(up to 0.9 m J/mm^(2)),the stress level was significantly below the ultimate value required for fracture.At knee arthroplasty,the conditions for bone tissue regeneration around the tibia component are fulfilled only under high-intensity loading.
