Circular cylinder in cross-flow was studied experimentally using time-resolved PIV technique. Reynolds numbers based on the cylinder diameter were in range from 3 850 up to 19 260. Effect of the Reynolds number on wake time-mean topology as well as the dynamical behavior is studied. The wake dynamics is analyzed using the OPD method. The Oscillation Pattern Decomposition method provides unique information on dynamical patterns topology and oscillations in the flow-field. The pseudo-periodical wavy patterns have been detected within the cylinder wake. The parameters of this behavior are Reynolds number dependent, especially their sizes and shapes. Typical flow-field topologies are presented in the paper. The study is of qualitative character as flow boundary conditions are not well defined.

BL-10C at the Photon Factory is one of the world’s oldest small-angle X-ray scattering beamlines. In Spring 2014, the original beamline was scrapped and rebuilt as a beamline equipped with new optical components and an experimental system. Two detectors, PILATUS3 2M and PILATUS3 200K (DECTRIS), were installed for SAXS and WAXS measurements, respectively. Additionally, new devices for sample analysis such as a sample changer, a heating/cooling stage, and a HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) for SEC-SAXS were installed. Moreover, the control system for optical tuning and measurements at the beamline was overhauled, improving ease of operations via several automatic processes. Herein details of the new BL-10C are described.

The problem of constructing solutions to the nonlinear heat equation with power nonlinearity is considered. The solutions have the form of a traveling wave and simulate the propagation of disturbances over a cold background with a finite velocity. It is shown that the construction can be reduced to the Cauchy problem for an ordinary second- order differential equation with a singularity multiplying the highest derivative. Its solutions are constructed using the boundary element method based on the dual reciprocity method. A computational experiment is carried out. The results are compared with the solutions of the same problems by the power series method. The calculations have shown the correctness of the developed boundary element algorithm and its advantage compared to the power series segments and the step-by-step method previously proposed by the authors.

Standing wave acoustic levitation transportation technique has been widely used in many research areas. In this work, two Langevin-type piezoelectric transducers’ central lines are mounted at a certain angle which is named a contraposition transducer array. The levitator developed in this work is constructed using the array and a reflector. Accordingly, a standing wave acoustic field is formed to levitate and transport particles by optimizing the angle between central lines of the two transducers, the distance between the two transducers’ output and their reflectors, the exciting phase differential on the two transducers. In this standing wave acoustic field, the trapped objects can be levitated and transported by modulating the exciting phase difference of the two transducers. In this work, the locations of the levitated particles are acquired by a high speed video camera and are clarified using the Hough Circle algorithm. The experiments carried out by the authors have demonstrated the effects of the levitator’s structure parameters (including the angle between central lines of the two transducers, the distance between the two transducers’ output and the reflector) on the transportation trajectory.

In this work, a standing wave acoustic field formed by using two contraposition transducers is used to classify the mixed powder. COMSOL-based simulations reveal the influence of the factors on the drop trajectories of the particles within an acoustic field. Then the experiments are carried out to demonstrate those obtained using COMSOL-based simulations. Finally, the separation experiments of the mixed powder of iron and dioxide silica are achieved, including the mixed powder both in the same diameter and the different diameter respectively.

This paper considers the results of numerical simulation of fluid flow. The computational domain represented the three-dimensional pore space obtained from processing digital images of X-ray microtomography. The model of the laminar fluid flow was used in calculations and described by the continuity and Navier–Stokes equations. The numerical simulation was conducted using the FlowVision software for stationary flow and for the flow with superimposed pressure pulsations. Velocity and pressure fields were obtained as a result of calculations. It was found that superimposed oscillations lead to additional directed flow occurrence with average characteristics depending on parameters of superimposed unsteadiness.
In micromanipulation, lots of methods have been developed to manipulate objects in microscale. However, few of them can be applied in both the transportation and the rotation of the micro objects. In this paper, we pr...

For intelligent driver assistance systems the prediction of the future driving cycle is fundamental. Recent recommendations for driving cycle standards does not provide precise information on the expected intermittent operations of the vehicle and can not be applied directly in an intelligent energy management and driving assistance system. Latest driver assistance systems require more sophisticated solutions which are able to incorporate the personal driving style. The Interval-type 2 Fuzzy system is proved to be a higly efficient tool for modeling uncertainties. In contrast to conventional Type-1 fuzzy modeling an IT2 Fuzzy system has the ability to deal with flexible with the various types of uncertainties and modeling errors simultaneously and approximates better real-life systems. This paper presents an IT2 Fuzzy system for personalized driving cycle forecasting from the measured velocity and acceleration data. The proposed method applies a Mamdani type IT2 fuzzy inference technique. The fuzzy sets and rules are built up by extracting knowledge from real driving dataset. Simulation results have shown that the presented technique is efficient and ensures satisfactory performance.
