A finite volume solver for Casson fluid flow based on SIMPLE algorithm of Newtonian fluid on unstructured collocated grid is developed to simulate haemodynamics in complex vessel. The discretization of convective flux and source term are similar with Newtonian fluid. For the discretization of diffusion flux, viscosity will take the value calculated from the flow field of previous iteration so as to avoid the complexity caused by the complicated viscosity expression as a function of shear rate. Then the discretization of momentum equation is similar with that of Newtonian fluid with variable viscosity and SIMPLE algorithm can be used to resolve the pressure-velocity coupling. With this algorithm, blood flows in a T-typed bifurcation are simulated. The simulation results of Casson fluid are more consistent with experimental data than that of Newtonian fluid, which indicates that using Casson model to simulate non-Newtonian characteristics of blood flow is successful and necessary.

Based on the wavelet analysis theory of signal singularity detection, the critical heat flux (CHF) and minimum film boiling starting point (qmin) of boiling curves can be detected and analyzed by using the wavelet multi-resolution analysis. To predict the CHF in engineering, empirical relations were obtained based on genetic algorithm. The results of wavelet detection and genetic algorithm prediction are consistent with experimental data very well.

In present paper a turbulent mixing layer with the velocity ratio 4:1.which was produced by a special designed splitter plated placed in a vertical rectangular channel was experimentally investigated by PIV. The Reynolds number based on the velocity difference of two steams and hydraulic diameter of the channel ranges from 4400-1.8400. It is found that the scale of coherent vortex structure increases with increasing the Reynolds number and then decreases with continuously increasing the Reynolds number. The injected bubble will delay or hinder the evolution of the coherent structures. Afterwards the statistical and instantaneous distributions of Reynolds stress, turbulent intensity, vorticity and swirling strength are obtained. The results show that all these turbulent parameters exist only in a very narrow conical region in the downstream of the mixing layer. The Reynolds stress and turbulent intensity first increase and then decrease with increasing the Reynolds number and decrease with the evolution of mixing layer, while vorticity and swirling strength increase with increasing the Reynolds number and decrease with the evolution of mixing layer.

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is an analytical detection technique based on atomic emission spectroscopy to measure the elemental composition. LIBS has been extensively studied and developed due to the non-contact, fast response, high sensitivity, real-time and multi-elemental detection features. The development and applications of LIBS technique in Asia are summarized and discussed in this review paper. The researchers in Asia work on different aspects of the LIBS study in fundamentals, data processing and modeling, applications and instrumentations. According to the current research status, the challenges, opportunities and further development of LIBS technique in Asia are also evaluated to promote LIBS research and its applications.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate pool water instantaneous flash evaporation in a rectangle chamber. The water level was at 40 mm, 60 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.0 mm. Initial conditions of the liquid varied from 55 to 88C temperature and 3 to 35C superheat. Visualization of the phenomenon using a CCD camera lets us firstly point out the influence of the initial conditions on the flashing phenomenon. The experimental results show that at a constant initial water temperature, the greater the superheat approaches, the more quickly the liquid temperature will decrease. At a constant superheat, the initial water temperature has little influence on the decrease rate of the water temperature. The higher the water level will be, the slower the water temperature will decrease as well as the higher the water temperature will be when the flashing is finished. Experimental study allows us to correlate the water temperature with the initial water temperature and the superheat while flashing is going.

This paper considers an epidemic model of a vector-borne disease which has the vectormediated transmission only. The incidence term is of the bilinear mass-action form. It is shown that the global dynamics is completely determined by the basic reproduction number Ro. If Ro ≤ 1. the diseasefree equilibrium is globally stable and the disease dies out. If Ro 〉 1. a unique endemic equilibrium is globally stable in the interior of the feasible region and the disease persists at the endemic equilibrium. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the results.

An algorithm for bubble packing method based unstructured grid generation of a curved-edge polygon is developed to avoid bubble departure from a curved boundary during dynamic bubble movement. The curve boundary is mapped into a straight line to allow bubble adding and moving. Then the bubble position is mapped into the curve boundary by the arc-length parameterization method. Combined with conventional methods, a new method to judge a point in a given curved-edge polygon is proposed. Local grid refinement is realized by adding different size bubbles to the real and artificial vertices and setting the bubble's radius by the weighted average method. Moreover, the SIMPLE algorithm on unstructured collocated grid systems is developed and applied to simulate the lid-driven flow in a polar cavity. The numerical simulation results agree well with the experimental data under different Reynolds numbers.
