An efficient finite difference model of blood flow through the coronary vessels is developed and applied to a geometric model of the largest six generations of the coronary arterial network. By constraining the form of the velocity profile across the vessel radius, the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations are reduced to one-dimensional equations governing conservation of mass and momentum....

This paper describes the development of the stream-tube based dispersion model for modeling contaminant transport in open channels. The operator-splitting technique is employed to separate the 2D contaminant transport equation into the pure advection and pure dispersion equations. Then the total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes are combined with the second-order Lax-Wendroff and third–order ...

This paper presents a chemical species transport model to account for variable composition and gas properties along the flow path in internal combustion engines. It is described the numerical solution to adapt the gas dynamic model to chemical species transport in boundary conditions by means of the Method of Characteristics and in volumes by means of a filling and emptying model. The performan...

In this paper, a family of high order numerical methods are designed to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the viscosity solution. In particular, the methods start with a hyperbolic conservation law system closely related to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. The compact one-step one-stage Lax-Wendroff type time discretization is then applied together with the local-structure-preserving disconti...

For solving time-dependent convection-dominated partial differential equations (PDEs), which arise frequently in computational physics, high order numerical methods, including finite difference, finite volume, finite element and spectral methods, have been undergoing rapid developments over the past decades. In this article we give a brief survey of two selected classes of high order methods, n...

Abstract We discuss a high order accurate numerical boundary condition for solving hyperbolic conservation laws on fixed Cartesian grids, while the physical domain can be arbitrarily shaped and moving. Compared with body-fitted meshes, the biggest advantage of Cartesian grids is that the grid generation is trivial. The challenge is however that the physical boundary does not usually coincide wi...

Abstract. In this paper, we give a survey and discuss new developments and computational results for a high order accurate numerical boundary condition based on finite difference methods for solving hyperbolic equations on Cartesian grids, while the physical domain can be arbitrarily shaped. The challenges are the wide stencil for the high order scheme and the fact that the physical boundary do...

In this paper, we present an intensive investigation of the finite volume method (FVM) compared to difference methods (FDMs). order show main in way approaching solution, take Burgers equation and Buckley–Leverett as examples simulate previously mentioned methods. On one hand, results using schemes Lax–Friedrichs Lax–Wendroff. other apply Godunov’s scheme method. Moreover, how starting with a v...

The article discusses substantiating the parameters brake system of a tractor-trailer (TT). section offers comparative analysis theoretical and experimental studies TT drive its elements. Based on that, ordinary differential equations were solved by Runge - Kutta method, first-order accuracy (Euler's method). To solve partial equations, we used modified Lax Wendroff scheme. results obtained usi...
