A new model, two dimensional coupled three dimensional model (2D -3D ) is presented in the Present paper,which is the most suitable one for the dual - structured - aquifer system. An example of Wenyinghu area is shown.By using the 2D-3D model, a satisfied result of the simulated area is achieved.展开更多

In the model, extra-cellular matrix （ECM） was treated as a thin plane. The displacement of ECM is obtained from the force balance equation consisted of the ECs traction, the ECM visco-elastic forces and the exter- nal forces. Simulation results show that a layered capillary network is obtained with a well vascularized region at the periphery of the tumor. The present model can be used as a valid theoretical method in the basic researches in tumorinduced angiogenesis.展开更多

In the case of crush bedrock, there has been no propercontrol equation to describe bed stability, which leads to difficulty in calculation of the beddeformation with conventional methods. The data from field survey were used to give thee-rosion-resisting capability with an appropriate coefficient. After the determination oflongitudinal distribution expressed by polynomial regression and transversal distribution expressedby normal distribution function, the plane distribution of erosion-resisting coefficient in a crushbedrock river was obtained. With the computational results from a 2-D horizontal flow mathematicalmodel, the erosion-resisting coefficient and controlling condition of local stability were employedto compute the values of bed deformation when riverbed is stable. The above method was applied in acase study, and the computational results of flow and bed deformations are in good a-greement withphysical model test data.展开更多
