Abstract: This paper presents the basic equations for a mathematical model of sediment-laden flow in a nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. The equations were derived using a tensor analysis of two-phase flow and incorporate ...

Abstract: Nanozero-valent iron/activated carbon (nZVI/AC) composite is investigated as a possible stabilization agent for heavy metals in river sediment. Effects of stabilization were tested by leaching tests such as synthetic ...

Abstract: Efficient global optimization of aerodynamic shapes with the high-fidelity method is of great importance in the design process of modern aircrafts. In this study, modifications are made to the particle swarm optimization ...

Abstract: An abnormal operating effect can be caused by different faults, and a fault can cause different abnormal effects. An information fusion model, with hybrid-type fusion frame, is built in this paper, so as to solve this ...

Abstract: Located at a tectonic boundary, Taiwan is highly prone to severe earthquakes that often cause significant loss of life and economic damage, underscoring the need for improved prediction methods. While traditional approaches ...

Abstract: Cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) was employed to tailor-activated carbon, granular ferric hydroxide (GFH), chitosan, zeolite, and bentonite so as to investigate the effect of CTAC tailoring on ...
