Abstract: From the viewpoint of nonlinear dynamics, a numerical method for predicting the traffic of the local area network (LAN) is presented based on the multifractal spectrums; in particular, for predicting the typical congestion ...

Abstract: The entrainment, breakup, and interplay of air bubbles were observed in a vertical, two-dimensional supported jet at low impact velocities. Ultra-high-speed movies were analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The ...

Abstract: Standard box-culvert designs are similar to ancient designs. The acknowledgment of the ecological impact of culverts and road crossings on rivers has led to changes in culvert design guidelines. A small triangular corner ...

Abstract: AbstractA hydraulic jump taking place in a partially filled pipe is responsible for rapid change in the pipeflow dynamics and air content. The pipeflow self-aeration at hydraulic jump in a closed pipe has not been studied ...

Abstract: AbstractDropshafts of deep tunnel systems can entrain a large amount of air, and the resulting air–water interactions cause potential safety issues. In this study, the air–water flow characteristics along a tunnel under ...
