    Using the fractional interaction law to model the impact dynamics in arbitrary form of multiparticle collisions

    Using the molecular dynamics method, we examine a discrete deterministic model for the motion of spherical particles in three-dimensional space. The model takes into account multiparticle collisions in arbitrary forms. Using fractional calculus we proposed an expression for the repulsive force, which is the so called fractional interaction law. We then illustrate and discuss how to control (correlate) the energy dissipation and the collisional time for an individual article within multiparticle collisions. In the multiparticle collisions we included the friction mechanism needed for the transition from coupled torsion-sliding friction through rolling friction to static friction. Analysing simple simulations we found that in the strong repulsive state binary collisions dominate. However, within multiparticle collisions weak repulsion is observed to be much stronger. The presented numerical results can be used to realistically model the impact dynamics of an individual particle in a group of colliding particles.Comment: 17 pages, 8 figures, 1 table; In review process of Physical Review

    Some harvesting system transforming energy wastes of compressed air to electricity

    Full text link
    Energy harvesting devices are self-powered systems which are associated with input ambient energy and convert such energy to electrical one. In this study, we focus on input ambient energy deriving from compressed air. Using arbitrary pneumatic machine, the compressed air after work - with its typical parameters as overpressure 6 bar or higher and variable volume flow - is exhausted to atmosphere. This generates energy losses. We have constructed some device which transforms the loss of compressed air energy to electricity. It illustrates the principle of action very well and does not perturb operation of pneumatic machines being source of energy losses
