In this study, optimization is carried out to find the optimized design of a foam-filled column for the best Specific Energy Absorption (SEA) and Crush Force Efficiency (CFE). In order to maximize SEA, the optimization gives the value of 2.3 for column thickness and 151.7 for foam length. On the other hand to maximize CFE, the optimization gives the value of 1.1 for column thickness and 200 for...

Abstract In this paper, a nonlinear reduced-order model based on neural networks is introduced in order to vertical sloshing presence of Rayleigh–Taylor instability the free surface for use fluid–structure interaction simulations. A box partially filled with water, representative wing tank, first set harmonic motion via controlled electrodynamic shaker. Accelerometers and load cells at interfac...

Regarding increasing importance of tank wagons and efficiency in fluids transportation, their usage is increasing every day. Thus paying attention to their designs just as dynamic analysis of wagons during travelling time is vitally important. In this task, sloshing coefficient as prominent parameter in tank wagons designing has been investigated. To ease of efficient design, theses parameters ...

Forced convection in a tube with its core partially filled with a porous medium is treated both analytically and numerically to find its high heat transfer performance. Assuming a fully developed flow subject to a constant heat flux, both friction factor and Nusselt number are presented explicitly as functions of the Reynolds number, Darcy number and porous core diameter ratio. Partial filling ...

We report a novel and spectacular instability of a fluid surface in a rotating system. In a flow driven by rotating the bottom plate of a partially filled, stationary cylindrical container, the shape of the free surface can spontaneously break the axial symmetry and assume the form of a polygon rotating rigidly with a speed different from that of the plate. With water, we have observed polygons...

The elastodynamic body-wave field outside a fluid-filled open borehole due to a monopole source in the fluid, is reduced to the radiation-field due to a suitable equivalent force system (EFS) in the absence of the borehole, consisting of a monopole plus a vertical dipole. Theoretical seismograms of the EFS displacements in the solid are shown to be in excellent agreement with those obtained fro...
