The rivers connecting oceans generally carry sediment due to water and soil losses in China. Additionally, the maximum concentration is 300 g/L, which much higher than that of other countries. It unknown whether seawater with sand particles will affect power tidal current turbine blades. therefore necessary study capture turbines water-sediment environment. In this study, blade was divided into...

Recently, a newly designed type of energy-input extraction column, agitated-pulsed column (APC), has been achieved high mass-transfer efficiency due to the small-size droplets and dispersed-phase holdup. In view lack feasible population-balance-model (PBM) kernel functions in APC, parameter optimization is conducted by simplified PBM method. Then optimized are implemented computational fluid-dy...

A new approach extracting multi-parametric hydrodynamic reductions for the integrable hydrodynamic chains is presented. The Benney hydrodynamic chain is considered.

Macroalgae use flexibility and reconfiguration, i.e. the alteration of shape, size and orientation as water velocity increases, to reduce the hydrodynamic forces imposed in the wave-swept rocky intertidal zone. Quantifying the effects of flexibility on hydrodynamic performance is difficult, however, because the mechanisms of reconfiguration vary with water velocity and the relationship between ...
