Residual Coal

One of the main reasons for coal mine fire is spontaneous combustion of residual coal in gob. As the difference of compaction degree of coal and rock, the underground gob can be considered as a porous medium and divided into “three zones” in accordance with the criteria. The “three zones” are “heat dissipation zone”, “oxidation zone” and “choking zone”, respectively. Temperature programming experiments are taken and numerical simulation with obtained experimental data is utilized to analyze the distribution of “three zones” in this paper. Different width and depth of “oxidation zone” are obtained when the inlet air velocity is changed. As the nitrogen injection has inhibition effect on spontaneous combustion of residual coal in gob, nitrogen is injected into the gob. The widths of “oxidation zone” are compared before and after nitrogen injection. And ultimately the optimum location and volume of nitrogen injection are found out.

The numerical model of top coal drawing in gently inclined seam is built based on PFC2d software. By comparing with the theory of drawn-body movement law, it can be obtained that the shape of top coal drawn-body accords with the theory of random medium movement. The research results show that the form of the shape equation of top coal drawn-body is uniform while the top coal caving angle is different. On the other hand, with the difference of top coal caving angle and drawing height, the shape of top coal drawn-body is differential at the meso scale, which depends on the parameters of the shape equation of top coal drawn-body.

This paper presents a synchronization strategy based on second-order sliding mode control, to obtain robust controlled synchronization in an array of uncertain pancreatic β-cells. This strategy considers a synchronization scheme with a reference cell, which incorporates the desired dynamics, and an array of cells, which does not demonstrate adequate synchronization. The array may be formed by active and inactive cells having different strengths in gap junctions. For an array with three cells, we design the coupling signal considering that only the output of an active cell of the array is available. The coupling signal is the signum of the difference between the output of the reference cell and the output of an active cell in the array; this ensures exact synchronization in finite time between both cells. Then, this coupling signal is applied to the other cells in the array, and we establish the conditions required to be satisfied to obtain approximate synchronization between the reference cell and all other cells in the array. The performance of this technique is demonstrated by the results of numerical simulations performed for several cases of connections for an array with three cells and the reference cell. Finally, we show through a numerical simulation that this technique can be applied to arrays with many β-cells.

Particle Laden Flow

Multiphase flow with particles covers a wide spectrum of flow conditions in natural world and industrial applications. The experiments and the direct numerical simulation have become the most popular means to study the dilute particle-laden flow in the last two decades. In the experimental study, the mean Reynolds number is often adjusted to the value of single-phase flow for each set of particle conditions. However, the friction Reynolds number usually keeps invariable in the direct numerical simulation of the particle-laden flows for convenience. In this study the effect of the difference between given mean Reynolds number and friction Reynolds number was investigated. Two simulations were performed for each set of particle parameters, and the mean Reynolds number and friction Reynolds number were kept invariant respectively. From the results it can be found that the turbulence intensity and the dimensionless velocities are larger when keeping the friction Reynolds constant. And the results calculated from the cases of keeping the mean Reynolds number invariable agree with the experiment results better. In addition, the particle distribution along the wall-normal coordinate was found to be unchanged between two simulation conditions. As a suggestion, keeping the same mean Reynolds number in the direct numerical simulation of particle-laden flow is more appropriate.

The Stability

An extended traffic flow model is proposed by introducing the multiple information of preceding cars. The linear stability condition of the extended model is obtained, which shows that the stability of traffic flow is improved by considering the interaction of preceding cars to the following car. Numerical simulation shows that the traffic jams are suppressed efficiently by taking into account the multiple information of the preceding cars.

The Impact

In recent years, the influence of drivers' behaviors on traffic flow has attracted considerable attention according to Transportation Cyber Physical Systems. In this paper, an extended car-following model is presented by considering drivers' timid or aggressive characteristics. The impact of drivers' timid or aggressive characteristics on the stability of traffic flow has been analyzed through linear stability theory and nonlinear reductive perturbation method. Numerical simulation shows that the propagating behavior of traffic density waves near the critical point can be described by the kink–antikink soliton of the mKdV equation. The good agreement between the numerical simulation and the analytical results shows that drivers' characteristics play an important role in traffic jamming transition.

And Control

We propose a new computational method to calculate the storage elastic energy value of surrounding rocks based on numerical simulation and theoretical calculation. By calculating the difference value in energy under different force states and comparing them with the energy level when rock burst occurs, we get the mechanism of rock burst: when roadway and surrounding rocks are in the condition of large ratio bias force field, certain triggering stress causes mass release of the elastic energy of surrounding rocks around the roadway, and when the energy reaches a certain level, rock burst will occur. We also put forward the specific force field conditions and triggering stress values of rock burst, which is of great guiding significance for the mechanism disclosure, monitoring, and control of rock burst.

The dissimilarity between the Reynolds stresses and the heat fluxes in perturbed turbulent channel and plane Couette flows was studied using direct numerical simulation. The results demonstrate that the majority of the dissimilarity was due to the difference between the wall-normal fluxes, while the difference between the streamwise fluxes was lower. The main causes for the dissimilarity were the production terms, followed by the velocity-pressure interaction terms. Further insights into the importance of the velocity-pressure interaction in the origin of the dissimilarity are provided using two-point correlation. Furthermore, an octant conditional averaged dataset reveals that not only the wall-normal heat flux but also the streamwise heat flux is strongly related to the wall-normal gradient of the mean temperature. A simple Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) heat flux model is proposed as a function of the Reynolds stresses. A comparison of the direct numerical simulation data with an “a priori” prediction suggests that this simple model performs reasonably well.
