Hydraulic machines used in mining and excavation applications are non-linear systems. Besides the nonlinearity due to the dynamic coupling between the different links there are significant actuator non-linearities due to the inherent properties of the hydraulic system. Optimal motion planning for these machines, i.e. planning motions that optimize a user-selectable combination of criteria such ...

Hydraulic buffer systems play a significant role in energy absorption and improving belt arrest reliability in downward belt conveyors. In order give hydraulic buffer systems more preferable buffer properties, a parameters optimization method based on a reference model is proposed. Firstly, the working principle of a hydraulic buffer system for a belt arrestor is provided. Secondly, the mathema...

Thermal hydraulics of nuclear reactor as a basis of reactor safety has a very important role in reactor design and control. The thermal-hydraulic analysis provides input data to the reactor-physics analysis, whereas the latter gives information about the distribution of heat sources, which is needed to perform the thermal-hydraulic analysis. In this study single heated channel model as a very f...

water is the most essential component for sustaining lives of humans and other living creatures. supplying potable water with adequate residual pressure is a fundamental responsibility of city administration, which they do during normal conditions. but sometimes, abnormal conditions are formed resulting pressure deficient conditions during the daily operations of water distribution networks. th...

increasing development of engineering projects construction such as city subway needs appropriate investigation, management and control of groundwater. therefore, precise estimation of hydrogeological parameters such as hydraulic conductivity is the most important factor in studies and modeling of groundwater and geotechnical issues. in recent decades, various laboratory and field methods exist...

Epiphytic plants in the Bromeliaceae known as tank bromeliads essentially lack stems and absorptive roots and instead take up water from reservoirs formed by their overlapping leaf bases. For such plants, leaf hydraulic conductance is plant hydraulic conductance. Their simple strap-shaped leaves and parallel venation make them suitable for modeling leaf hydraulic conductance based on vasculatur...

Many techniques, approaches and tools were used in this Research to achieve the Methodology. Using artificial neural network to simultaneous hydraulic parameters is one of these techniques. Transmissivity and storativity consider the most important parameter in each aquifer due to the reality of their effect on the aquifer properties. In this research, it is assumed that the transmissivity (T) ...

The recently developed Unconventional Fracture Model (UFM*) simulates complex hydraulic fracture network propagation in a formation with pre-existing closed natural fractures, and explicitly models hydraulic injection into a fracture network with multiple propagating branches [1]. The model predicts whether a hydraulic fracture front crosses or is arrested by a natural fracture it encounters, w...
