ADVANCES IN THE FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF TURBULENCE: ENERGY TRANSFER,INTERACTING SCALES, AND SELFPRESERVATION IN ISOTROPIC DECAY
2000, 30(1): . doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-012
Abstract(2624) PDF(1661)
Abstract:
The fundamental aspects of isotropic turbulence are reviewed in reviewed in order to gain a betterinsight into the physical processes of turbulence. After first reviewing the Kolmogorov energyspectrum and the energy cascade, the Kolmogorov hypothesis of local isotropy is discussed in depth.Then, the detailed physical processes involving energy transfer and interacting scales in isotropicturbulence, including triad interactions, are reviewed. The inertial range and self-similarity are alsodiscussed along wi...
FRONTIER OF HEAT TRANSFER──MICROSCALE HEAT TRANSFER
2000, 30(1): 1-6. doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-001
Abstract(2398) PDF(1900)
Abstract:
The engineering background of the study of microscale heat transfer has been the cooL ing of microelectronic devices since 1980's and flow and heat transfer in MEMS (Micro- Electron Mechanical System) since 1990's. Microscale heat transfer is characterized by some special phenomena at micro length/time scale differing from that in macro scale. The reasons for that are twofold. One is the invalidity of continuum assumption; the other is the variation of the relative importance of various kinds of forces. Th...

Abstract(2123) PDF(2082)
Abstract:
This paper summarizes three models in the structural reliability research: random model, fuzzy model and non-probabilistic model. It emphasises the imporatnce of the nonprobabilistic model and its relations with other two reliability models. Finally the tendency of the structural reliability development is discussed.
A RELIABILITY-BASED MULTI-LEVEL OPTIMIZATION METHOD FOR LARGE-SCALE STRUCTURE
2000, 30(1): 29-36. doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-005
Abstract(1807) PDF(1521)
Abstract:
Based on Aulti-level optimization theory,a reliability-based optimum strategy is presented to solve the large-scale structure problem. The main idea is that the optimum distributions of structural reliability design index and weight design index are involved in the optimization Process from the conceptual design. A large-scale structure is decomposed into a multi-level substructure system, in which the reliability-based optimum solution of the lowest-level sub-structures can be obtained by the present met...
ADVANCES IN THE STUDIES ON DELAMINATIONS BUCKLING AND GROWTH OF AXIAL-COMPRESSION LAMINATE
2000, 30(1): 37-46. doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-006
Abstract(1670) PDF(1087)
Abstract:
Deiaminations and their further growth can reduce strength of laminates. This paper introduces the general concepts and classification of delaminations briefly. The investigative survey of delaminations is introduced through one-dimensional delaminations, two-delamina tions and delaminations in cylindrical shells. It is pointed out that the bending-stretching coupling and transverse shear have great influence on buckling load and characteristics of post-buckling of the delaminational structure. The buckling...
SOME RECENT ADVANCES IN BEM SOLUTION OF TIME-DEPENDENT PROBLEMS WITH MOVING BOUNDARIES
2000, 30(1): 47-54. doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-007
Abstract(1644) PDF(1403)
Abstract:
For the numerical modelling of complicated nonlinear problems, BEM model shows to be superior to the domain solution methods. Especially, for time-dependent problem (for which a time-marching scheme is needed) and for moving boundary (which means changeable solution domain and boundary where the regeneration of network is needed), BEM could reduce the storage requirement and CPU time considerably. In this paper, some principal difficulties, such as the linearization of the differential operator, the treatme...

Research advances made in recent years on the problems are surveyed in the present article. Particular attention was given to some new findings concerning the coherent structure near liquid surface and its relationship with the gas transfer taking place there, which shed new light on the mechanisms of gas transfer at sheared surface. Regarding the gas transfer proc...

AN ASSESSMENT OF TIME MARCHING METHOD IN CALCULATING INTERNAL FLOW FIELDS OF TURBOMACHINERY
2000, 30(1): 83-94. doi: 10.6052/1000-0992-2000-1-J1998-011
Abstract(2090) PDF(1407)
Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to review and assess time marching method used for the analysis and design of turbomachinery. There are two classes of methods for solving the time-dependent equations:explicit and implicit. In these methods, the time derivatives in the Euler/Navier-Stokes equations are retained, thus making the equations hyperbolic in nature. Very efficient techniques have been developed to solve these hyperbolic equations for the internal flow fields of turbomachinetry. The emphasis of thi...
