Experimental and simulation results show that the novel electro-hydraulic valve train can achieve fully variable valve timing and lift control. Consequently the engine performance on different loads and speeds will be significantly increased.

The neural network inversion method has been studied as one of the neural network-based solutions. On the other hand, the extension of the neural network to a higher-dimensional domain, e.g., complex-value or quaternion, has been proposed, and a number of higher-dimensional neural network models have been proposed. Using the quatemion, we have the advantage of expressing 3D (three-dimensional) object attitudes easily. In the quaternion domain, we can define inverse problems where the cause and the result are expressed by the quaternion. In this paper, we extend the neural network inversion method to the quatemion domain. Further, we provide the results of the computer experiments to demonstrate the process and effectiveness of our method.展开更多

It was shown in the previous study that the temporal changes of vertical water temperature distributions during the cooling period between September and February can be reproduced by a simple 3D-CFD model. It was also pointed out that the spatial distributions of cooled water body sinking to the bottom due to water surface cooling represent similar features of forest gap distribution, which can be clarified by a stochastic model. The basic features of numerical experiments on thermal convection such as the spatial distribution of cooled water body are firstly shown with several cooling rates at water surface. Then, a stochastic model, which was originally introduced to explain forest gap dynamics, is shown with its MFA (mean field approximation) as first approximation of stochastic model. It is pointed out through the comparison of theoretical results by MFA with tuned model constants to numerical experiments that MFA with some refinement can be applicable to reproduce the basic features of simulated results to some extent, although further investigations are required to clarify the applicability of the model to more detailed mechanism of thermal convection such as size distribution of cooled water body, phase change of flow pattern, etc..展开更多

During re-saturation, the moisture content, measured during the process by using X-ray attenuation (see part 1 of this paper), increases quickly very close to the cavity, but requires a very long time for the remaining part of the sample to absorb the moisture in wetting. For this configuration and this material, the macroscopic approach fails. Consequently, a dual-porosity approach is proposed. The computational domain uses a 2-D axisymmetric configuration for which the axial coordinate represents the macroscopic longitudinal direction of the sample whereas the radial coordinate allows the slow migration from each active vessel towards the fibre zone to be considered. The latter is a microscopic space variable. The moisture content field evolution depicts clearly the dual scale mechanisms:a very fast longitudinal migration in the vessel followed by a slow migration from the vessel towards the fibre zone.The macroscopic moisture content field resulting from this dual scale mechanism is in quite good agreement with the experimental data.展开更多

The effect of recirculating in micro-combustors is noticeable, hence it is necessary to present a model to describe the combustion process in these technologies. Recirculation phenomenon is evaluated by entering the exhausted heat from the post flam zone into the preheat zone. In this work, for modeling of random situation at the flame front, the source term in the equation of energy was modeled considering random situation for volatizing of particles in preheat zone. The comparison of obtained results from the proposed model by experimental data regards that the random model has a better agreement with experimental data than non-random model. Also, according to the results obtained by this model, wall temperature affects the amount of heat recirculation directly and higher values of wall temperature will lead to higher amounts of burning velocity and flame temperature.展开更多

This experiment is a time consuming process for both real-life tests and ship model experiments. The difficulty is mainly due to a bias in the measurement of heel angle. Nowadays, digital inclinometers are available, but they are expensive. In this study, the use of a smartphone application is presented for ship inclination and rolling-period tests. The idea consists of using accelerometer and gyroscope sensors built into the current smartphones for the measurements. Therefore, some experiments are carried out on an example trawler model to exhibit the uses and advantages of this method. The obtained results are in good agreement with those provided from the pendulum method and natural roll-period test. This application is new, easy, and more accurately assesses metacentric height during the inclining and rolling-period tests.展开更多

Also, the hydrogen injection solution at the beginning of the compression stroke, after the inlet valve closing, assures the cylinder cooling by inlet air avoiding in that way uncontrolled ignition phenomena and inlet back fire. Using this fueling method avoided the abnormally hydrogen combustion phenomena's for stoichiometric dosage operating conditions, achieving -30 % engine power increase. Hydrogen engine runs with very lean mixtures, due to engine load qualitative adjustment, a dosage value that leads to a reduction of the engine power with -25% from maximum power value. This provides a higher engine efficiency at low loads, the best results was obtained for λ=2- 4 air-fuel ratio values. The influence of the mixture quality on burning process, on polluting and energetically engine performances at the fuelling with hydrogen using direct injection method are presented. Because of the higher combustion temperature, the NOx emission level is higher for λ=1 - 2 comparative to gasoline fuelled engine, but decreases a lot for leaner mixture values, λ〉2.5.展开更多

One of methods of vehicle power efficiency increase is installation of on-board energy storage systems. For studying of system operation, it is necessary to carry out a lot of experiments, therefore it is favorable to use the test bench and its computer model for reduction of the number of physical experiments. In this article, the results of computer modeling for the optimization of traction drive test bench by adjusting of the operation parameters of supercapacitor energy storage are described. Test bench operation is considered in cases of the energy storage system working at various selected supercapacitor initial voltages. Maximal increase of possibility of vehicle test bench regenerative braking with minimal decrease of autonomous power supply mode possibility is investigated. There is estimated the energy storage system efficiency improving measures dependence from supercapacitor operational voltage ranges. Parameters at which the minimum losses of energy are observed are revealed. Dependence of energy storage system discharge power on the most admissible supercapacitor current is established.展开更多

We find that the SLH always suppresses the tt spin correlations compared to the SM values. At the LHC, the suppression can be over 10% for mz, 〈 750 GeV. The SLH prediction value is outside the 1σ range of the experimental data from ATLAS, and within 1σ range of the experimental data from CMS. At the ILC, the SLH can sizably suppress the tt spin correlation for mz, approaching the center-of-mass energy √s. For example, the maximal suppression can reach -22.5%, -14.5%, and -9.5% for √s = 500 Ge V, 800 Ge V, and 1000 GeV, respectively. Therefore, the tt spin correlation at the ILC can be a sensitive probe for the SLH.展开更多

Later, some authors have studied the transition π0→e+e- and γ→γA10 in terms of the same mechanism and their result indicates that with the suggested mass one cannot fit the data. This discrepancy might be caused by experimental error of ∑+→p+μ+μ- because there were only a few events. Whether the mechanism is a reasonable one motivates us to investigate the transitions π0→e+e-;η(η′)→μ+μ-;ηc→μ+μ-;ηb→τ+τ- within the same framework. It is noted that for π0→ e+ e-, the standard model (SM) prediction is smaller than the data, whereas the experimental central value of η→μ+μ- is also above the SM prediction. It means that there should be extra contributions from other mechanisms and the contribution of A may be a possible one. Theoretically calculating the branching ratios of the concerned modes, we would cheek if we can obtain a univers mass for A10 which reconcile the theoretical predictions and data for all the modes. Unfortunately, we find that it is impossible conclude that the phenomenology does not favor such a to have such a mass with the same coupling|gt|. Therefore we light A10, even though a small window is still open.展开更多
