Thermo-mechanical behaviour of energy piles
Energy piles are an effective and economic means of using geothermal energy resources for heating and cooling buildings, contributing to legislative requirements for renewable energy in new construction. While such piles have been used for around 25 years with no apparent detrimental effect, there is limited understanding of their thermo-mechanical behaviour. This paper synthesises the results ...
متن کاملSmall-scale behaviour in deterministic reaction models
In a recent paper published in this journal [42 (2009) 495004] we studied a one-dimensional particles system where nearest particles attract with a force inversely proportional to a power α of their distance and coalesce upon encounter. Numerics yielded a distribution function h(z) for the gap between neighbouring particles, with h(z) ∼ z for small z and β(α) > α. We can now prove analytically ...
متن کاملA computational model of pile vertical vibration in saturated soil based on the radial disturbed zone of pile driving
In this study, a simplified computational model of pile vertical vibration was developed. The model was based on the inhomogeneous radial disturbed zone of soil in the vicinity of a pile disturbed by pile driving. The model contained two regions: the disturbed zone, which was located in the immediate vicinity of the pile, and the undisturbed region, external to the disturbed zone. In the model,...
متن کاملCalculations of absorbed dose and energy dependent of small-scale dosimeters for photons beam therapy
In this study, the energy dependency for dosimeters of air ionization chambers, lithium fluoride, silicon and plastic scintillator has been studied using the MCNPX Monte Carlo simulation code and simulated for gamma energy in the range of radiotherapy energy. The simulation results show that the response of each of the dosimeters for gamma photon beams in the energy range of 0.2 to 20 MeV varie...
متن کاملSmall-scale behaviour of cosmic string networks.
The evolution of cosmic string networks is an interesting dynamical problem. The equations governing these networks are classical and fully specified, but the length scale at which cosmic string loops form has been uncertain to tens of orders of magnitude. Numerical simulations are limited in the range of length and time scales they can reach, while analytic methods have been limited by the non...
