Element Method

The prediction of the spatial mean-square pressure distribution within enclosed high-frequency broadband sound fields is computationally intensive if determined on a frequency-by-frequency basis. Recently an energy-intensity boundary element method (EIBEM) has been formally developed. This method employs uncorrelated broadband directional energy sources to expeditiously predict such pressure distributions. The source directivity accounts for local correlation effects and specular reflection. The method is applicable to high modal density fields, but not restricted to the usual low-absorption, diffuse, and quasi-uniform assumptions. The approach can accommodate fully specular reflection, or any combination of diffuse and specular reflection. This boundary element method differs from the classical version in that element size is large compared to an acoustic wavelength and equations are not solved on a frequency-by-frequency basis. In the earlier EIBEM, the source strength and directivity associated with the energy sources, distributed over enclosure boundaries, were determined in an iterative manner and the directivity was limited to three terms of a Fourier expansion. Here, the original method is improved by eliminating the iteration and allowing for an unlimited number of terms in the Fourier expansion of the directivity function. For verification, the improved EIBEM is compared to experimental measurements and exact analytical solutions; excellent agreement is obtained.

Element Method

In the present work creeping three-dimensional flows of a viscous liquid in a cylindrical tube and a channel of variable cross-section are studied. A qualitative triangulation of the surface of a cylindrical tube, a smoothed and experimental channel of a variable cross section is constructed. The problem is solved numerically using boundary element method in several modifications for a periodic and non-periodic flows. The obtained numerical results are compared with the analytical solution for the Poiseuille flow.

Element Method

In this work the 3D dynamics of two immiscible liquids in unbounded domain at low Reynolds numbers is considered. The numerical method is based on the boundary element method, which is very efficient for simulation of the three-dimensional problems in infinite domains. To accelerate calculations and increase the problem size, a heterogeneous approach to parallelization of the computations on the central (CPU) and graphics (GPU) processors is applied. To accelerate the iterative solver (GMRES) and overcome the limitations associated with the size of the memory of the computation system, the software component of the matrix-vector product

Element Method

An approach to developing a general technique for constructing reduced-order models of unsteady flows about three-dimensional complex geometries is presented. The boundary element method along with the potential flow is used to analyze unsteady flows over two-dimensional airfoils, three-dimensional wings, and wing-body configurations. Eigenanalysis of unsteady flows over a NACA 0012 airfoil, a three-dimensional wing with the NACA 0012 section and a wing-body configuration is performed in time domain based on the unsteady boundary element formulation. Reduced-order models are constructed with and without the static correction. The numerical results demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method in reduced-order modeling of unsteady flows over complex configurations.
