Accelerated second-order hydrodynamic load calculation on semi-submersible floaters

Calculation Submarine Hydrodynamic Coefficient by Hybrid Method

Increase in the accuracy of hydrodynamic coefficient calculation cause to increase in the prediction of vessel maneuvering ability. Different methods of determining hydrodynamic coefficients will be effective in determining the accuracy of coefficients, especially in numerical simulation. In this paper, we do planar motion mechanism (PMM) test, oblique towing test, and rotating arm test simulat...

On the second order first zagreb index

Inspired by the chemical applications of higher-order connectivity index (or Randic index), we consider here the higher-order first Zagreb index of a molecular graph. In this paper, we study the linear regression analysis of the second order first Zagreb index with the entropy and acentric factor of an octane isomers. The linear model, based on the second order first Zag...

Calculation of Complicated Flows, Using First and Second-Order Schemes (RESEARCH NOTE)

The first-order schemes used for discretisation of the convective terms are straightforward and easy to use, with the drawback of introducing numerical diffusion. Application of the secondorder schemes, such as QUICK scheme, is a treatment to reduce the numerical diffusion, but increasing convergence oscillation is unavoidable. The technique used in this study is a compromise between the above-...

Non-Newtonian Effects of Second-Order Fluids on the Hydrodynamic Lubrication of Inclined Slider Bearings

Theoretical study of non-Newtonian effects of second-order fluids on the performance characteristics of inclined slider bearings is presented. An approximate method is used for the solution of the highly nonlinear momentum equations for the second-order fluids. The closed form expressions for the fluid film pressure, load carrying capacity, frictional force, coefficient of friction, and centre ...
