The mean profile depth derived from 3-D macrotexture measurements （MPD3 ） has a significant relationship with the mean texture depth （MTD ）,which can be described by a logarithm model with R2 of 0.962.There is no significant linear relationship between the friction coefficient at a speed of 60 km/h （DFT60 ）and macrotexture indicators.A nonlinear model with British pendulum number （BPN ） incorporated can relate DFT60 to MTD or indicator fcon .A comparison with MTD shows that GTDM-based fcon has a potential to be a macrotexture indicator for skid resistance evaluation,which describes the general height difference and the average local height difference of pavement macrotexture. A relatively high fcon is helpful for improving asphalt pavement skid resistance.展开更多

The effect of the system's main error source (constant drift of gyro and zero bias of accelerometer) under rotating conditions for the system was analyzed. Validity of theoretical analysis was shown via simulation, and that provides a theoretical foundation for a rotating strap-down inertial navigation system during actual experimentation and application.展开更多

This model is based on the combination of an appropriate finite difference scheme, a 16-discrete-velocity model [Kataoka and Tsutahara, Phys. Rev. E 69 （2004） 035701（R）] and reasonable dispersion and dissipation terms. The dispersion term effectively reduces the oscillation at the discontinuity and enhances numerical precision. The dissipation term makes the new model more easily meet with the yon Neumann stability condition. This model works for both high-speed and low-speed flows with arbitrary specific-heat-ratio. With the new model simulation results for the well-known benchmark problems get a high accuracy compared with the analytic or experimental ones. The used benchmark tests include （i） Shock tubes such as the Sod, Lax, Sjogreen, Colella explosion wave, and collision of two strong shocks, （ii） Regular and Mach shock reflections, and （iii） Shock wave reaction on cylindrical bubble problems. With a more realistic equation of state or free-energy functional, the new model has the potential tostudy the complex procedure of shock wave reaction on porous materials.展开更多

Navier-Stokes equations were solved by the finite difference method, and the volume of fluid （VOF） method was employed to trace the free surface. The partial cell method was used to deal with the irregular boundary typical of this type of problem during first-time wave interaction with the structure, and a satisfactory result was obtained. The numerical model was verified and used to investigate the effects of the relative wave height H/d, relative caisson width kD, and relative length-width ratio B/D on the wave forces of the quasi-ellipse caisson. It was shown that the relative wave height H/d has a significant effect on the wave forces of the caisson. Compared with the non-dimensional inline wave force, the relative length-width ratio BID was shown to have significant influence on the non-dimensional transverse wave force.展开更多

Numerical results suggest that ＂ghost forces＂ may lead to a negilible error on the solution, while lead to a finite size error on the gradient of the solution. The error has a layer-like profile, and the interfacial layer width is of O（ε）. The error in certain component of the displacement gradient decays algebraically from O（1） to O（ε） away from the interface. A surrogate model is proposed and analyzed, which suggests the same scenario for the effect of ＂ghost forces＂. Our analysis is based on the explicit solution of the surrogate model.展开更多

文摘We study the effect of ＂ghost forces＂ for a quasicontinuum method in three dimension with a planar interface. ＂Ghost forces＂ are the inconsistency of the quasicontinuum method across the interface between the atomistic region and the continuum region. Numerical results suggest that ＂ghost forces＂ may lead to a negilible error on the solution, while lead to a finite size error on the gradient of the solution. The error has a layer-like profile, and the interfacial layer width is of O（ε）. The error in certain component of the displacement gradient decays algebraically from O（1） to O（ε） away from the interface. A surrogate model is proposed and analyzed, which suggests the same scenario for the effect of ＂ghost forces＂. Our analysis is based on the explicit solution of the surrogate model.
