A 2D numerical ocean model on the Coriolis and wind stress effects using Stochastics

Ocean basin is modeled as a two-dimensional closed, bounded domain in which the fluid flow is governed by the complex partial differential equations in the flow function. Keeping in view that the ocean currents are non-viscous, no normal flow conditions are used at the basin boundaries. The parameters investigated here are: Coriolis parameter, wind stress coefficient, and latitude. Stochastic differential equations in time scales are solved by deterministic and stochastic methods. Deterministic results concluded that streamlines are symmetric about stagnation point (no flow) for 0<Rp<6.57. Stochastic controls are introduced to account for variability in time scales. Euler-Maruyama (direct) and Fokker-Planck equation schemes (indirect) are proposed. It is concluded that stream functions in both direct and indirect methods are of the same qualitatively and quantitatively when 0<Rp<79

Elastic wave propagation study in copper poly-grain sample using FEM

AbstractThe paper presents Voronoi based micro-structure modeling through elastic wave propagation in a poly-crystalline copper using finite element method. The micro-structural parameters studied here are; the grain size and the grain orientation. The poly-crystalline copper is modeled as a randomly oriented Voronoi cells in a fixed 2D computational domain. Tone burst 3-cycle pulse of 1 MHz frequency is used as the line source or point source for testing. Welded contact conditions are used at the interface boundaries of any two mutual cells of the domain. It is reported that wave scattering independent of the shape when the size of the scatterer less than the wavelength. Also, It is concluded that transmission efficiency increases as the cell size decreases
