چکیده
We present in this paper a thorough investigation of three-dimensional flow in a cubical cavity, subject to a constant velocity lid on its roof. In this steady-state analysis, we adopt the mixed formulation on triquadratic elements to preserve mass conservation. To resolve difficulties in the asymmetric and indefinite large-size matrix equations, we apply the BiCGSTAB solution solver. To achieve stability, weighting functions are designed in favor of variables on the upstream side. To achieve accuracy, the weighting functions are properly chosen so that false diffusion errors can be largely suppressed by the equipped streamline operator. Our aim is to gain some physical insight into the vortical flow using a theoretically rigorous topological theory. To broaden our understanding of the vortex dynamics in the cavity, we also study in detail the longitudinal spiralling motion in the flow interior. 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

We illustrate a three-dimensional mathematical model for the prediction of biological processes that typically occur in a sea region with minor water exchange. The model accounts for particle transport due to water motion, turbulent diffusion and reaction processes and we use a fractional-step approach for discretizing the related different terms. 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian formulation is derived for the residual distribution method on moving meshes. The system of Euler equations is discretized on moving meshes and in case of deforming meshes a geometrical source term has to be taken into account. A conservative linearization guarantees the conservation property of the discretized equations. From the geometric conservation law we ...

A general method based on adjoint formulation is discussed for the optimal control of distributed parameter systems (including boundary parameter) which is especially suitable for large dimensional control problems. Strategies for efficient and robust implementation of the method are described. The method is applied to the problem of controlling vortex shedding behind a cylinder (through suctio...

A series DC motor must be represented by a nonlinear model when nonlinearities such as magnetic saturation are considered. To provide effective control, nonlinearities and uncertainties in the model must be taken into account in the control design. In this paper, the recursive design method is applied to generate nonlinear control, nonlinear PI control, and robust control, and these controls ar...
