Abstract The effective elastic properties of the cord-rubber composite are deduced from the principle of virtual work. Such a composite must be compliant in the noncord directions and therefore undergo large deformations. The Rivlin-Mooney equation is used to derive the effective Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the composite and as a basis for their measurement in uniaxial tension.

Nitrification Process

A series of batch tests were performed to study the competition for oxygen by Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter in the nitrification of ammonia in activated sludge. Oxygen uptake rate (OUR) and dynamic (compartment) models describing the process are proposed and tested. The OUR model is described by a Monod relationship and the biogradation process by a set of first order nonlinear differential equations with variable coefficients. The results show a mechanistic model and ten reaction rates are sufficient to capture the interactive behavior of the nitrification process. Methods for model specification, calibrating, and testing the model and the design of additional experiments are described.

AbstractWe introduce a novel method for the implementation of shape optimization for non-parameterized shapes in fluid dynamics applications, where we propose to use the shape derivative to determine deformation fields with the help of the $$p-$$ p - Laplacian for $$p > 2$$ p > 2 . This approach is closely related to the computation of steepest descent directions of the shape functional in the $$W^{1,\infty }-$$ W 1 , ∞ - topology and refers to the recent publication Deckelnick et al. (A novel $$W^{1,\infty}$$ W 1 , ∞ approach to shape optimisation with Lipschitz domains, 2021), where this idea is proposed. Our approach is demonstrated for shape optimization related to drag-minimal free floating bodies. The method is validated against existing approaches with respect to convergence of the optimization algorithm, the obtained shape, and regarding the quality of the computational grid after large deformations. Our numerical results strongly indicate that shape optimization related to the $$W^{1,\infty }$$ W 1 , ∞ -topology—though numerically more demanding—seems to be superior over the classical approaches invoking Hilbert space methods, concerning the convergence, the obtained shapes and the mesh quality after large deformations, in particular when the optimal shape features sharp corners.
