steady state natural convection of al2o3-water nanofluid inside a square cavity filled with a porous medium is investigated numerically. the temperatures of the two side walls of the cavity are maintained at th and tc, where tc has been considered as the reference condition. the top and the bottom horizontal walls have been considered to be insulated i.e., non-conducting and impermeable to mass...

impact pile driving is a multi-component problem which is associated to multi-directional ground vibrations. at first, vibration is transferred from the hammer to the pile and then to the common interface of pile and soil. this is then transferred to the environment and has great impact on the adjacent structures, causing disturbance to residents and also damage to the buildings. it is of high ...

in the present study a quasi 2-d numerical model is developed for calculating air concentration distribution in rapid flows. the model solves air continuity equation (convection diffusion equation) in the whole flow domain. this solution is then coupled with calculations of the free surface in which air content in the flow is also considered. to verify the model, its results are compared with a...

the performance of water flooding can be investigated by using either detail numerical modeling or simulation, or simply through the analytical buckley-leverett (bl) model. the buckley-leverett analytical technique can be applied to one-dimensional homogeneous systems. in this paper, the impact of heterogeneity on water flooding performance and fractional flow curve is investigated. first, a ba...

in recent decades, attention to contamination propagation into soils and underground water has increased, which has led to a rise in the studies on soil contamination problems and methods of in-situ remediation. in this research, effective parameters on oil contamination propagation in soils and underground water have been investigated using fem in order to determine propagation patterns. the m...
