Abstract: An approach to finding the optimal layout of prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) in soft soil treatment, which has the minimum amount of PVDs and meets the requirements for the degree of consolidation, is proposed. Because ...

Abstract: This paper considers the determination of plastic instability pressure in toroidal shells under internal uniform pressure. Analytical and numerical approaches, as well as verification by experiments, ...

Abstract: A liquid column hanging between two surfaces (e.g., rod ends) appears in many engineering applications. This study focuses on its solidification with volume expansion through the use of an axisymmetric front-tracking method. ...

Abstract: Cavitating flows around a rotating circular cylinder at the low Reynolds number flow (Re ≤ 400) are numerically investigated. The computation is performed by incorporating a compressible homogeneous liquid–vapor two-phase ...

Abstract: In this paper, we numerically investigate the dynamics of a compound droplet driven by surface tension variation induced by a thermal gradient in a sinusoidal constriction tube. Initially, the compound droplet with a ...
