Abstract: This paper presents a new method of simulating the dynamic flow and pressure of laminar liquid flow through pipes of arbitrarily changing cross section. This method uses a segmented model based on the previously presented ...

Abstract: A typical switched inertance buck converter includes digital valves controlling the flow of fluid to the load from the pressure supply and also from the reservoir. These valves are typically located at the same position, ...

Abstract: This paper presents a numerical method of tracing of sound or other refracted rays through a medium with arbitrarily varying refractive index. The method uses a radial basis function (RBF) network to define the refractive ...

Abstract: This paper presents the development of a multisodar mode from a five-beam sodar whereby a wind speed vector is found for sets of three acoustic beams. If the vertical beam is used, this mode enables the profiling of four ...

Abstract: This paper presents an improved method of time-domain modeling of pressure wave propagation through liquid media in rigid tapered pipes. The method is based on the transmission line model (TLM), which uses linear transfer ...

Abstract: This paper examines modeling of the laminar dynamic fluid responses within hydraulic transmission lines that have a tapered shape between the inlet and the outlet. There are excellent models available for fast simulation ...
