A conservative discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the 2D incompressible Navier–Stokes equations

In this paper we consider a conservative discretization of the two-dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. We propose an extension of Arakawa’s classical finite difference scheme for fluid flow in the vorticity–stream function formulation to a high order discontinuous Galerkin approximation. In addition, we show numerical simulations that demonstrate the accuracy of the scheme and verify the conservation properties, which are essential for long time integration. Furthermore, we discuss the massively parallel implementation on graphic processing units.     

SIMULATION AND ESTIMATION OF LONG MEMORY CONTINUOUS TIME MODELS

Abstract. Some general properties of long memory continuous time processes are recalled or proved. Methods of simulation are studied. A comparison with the usual discrete time autoregressive fractionally integrated moving-average filter is made and illustrations are provided. Then, two methods of estimation of the parameters of such a model from a discrete sample are studied, both theoretically and empirically, with Monte Carlo experiments.

MoNoC: A monitored network on chip with path adaptation mechanism

Complex systems on chip containing dozens of processing resources with critical communication requirements usually rely on the use of networks on chip (NoCs) as communication infrastructure. NoCs provide significant advantages over simpler infrastructures such as shared busses or point to point communication, including higher scalability, more efficient energy management, higher bandwidth and lower average latency. Applications running on NoCs with more than 10% of bandwidth usage attest that the most significant portion of message latencies refers to buffered packets waiting to enter the NoC, whereas the latency portion that depends on the packet traversing the NoC is sometimes negligible. This work presents an adaptive routing architecture, named Monitored NoC (MoNoC), which is based on a traffic monitoring mechanism and the exchange of high priority control packets. This method enables to adapt paths by choosing less congested routes. Practical experiments show that the proposed path adaptation is a fast process, enabling to transmit packets with smaller latencies, up to 9 times smaller, by using non-congested NoC regions.     

Mössbauer analysis of iron phases in brown coal ash and fireside deposits

The iron phases present in an electrostatic precipitator ash, an uncooled ash deposit and a cooled superheater ash deposit from Hazelwood Power Station, Australia, burning Morwell brown coal has been examined using Mössbauer spectroscopy. The principal iron phase in the precipitator ash and the uncooled ash deposit from a hot gas offtake was calcium aluminoferrite (Ca₂Fe_{2 ? x}Al_xO₅). Minor amounts of hematite (α-Fe₂O₃) and magnetite (Fe₃O₄) were also detected in the precipitator ash. The cooled superheater ash deposit contained a (Mg, Fe, Al) oxide spinel as the primary iron phase; small quantities of hematite were also detected in this deposit close to the heat exchanger interface. The formation of these iron phases has been rationalized on the basis of the average composition of coal delivered to the power station and supplementary ash chemistry data obtained from other techniques. The evidence suggests that the calcium aluminoferrite in the precipitator ash is derived from inorganic constituents (distributed throughout the coal organic matrix) and the hematite and magnetite are of mineral origin (discrete particles).     

Reductive alkylation of illinois No. 6 coal. 1H and 13C n.m.r. spectra of the 13C-enriched alkylation products

The reductive alkylation of Illinois No. 6 coal has been carried out using potassium and naphthalene in tetrahydrofuran and methyl-¹³C and butyl-1 -¹³C iodides to alkylate the resultant polyanion. The soluble products of the reductive alkylation reaction were isolated by extraction and chromatography. Proton and carbon n.m.r. spectra were recorded. The intense resonance signal at δ3.95 which appears in the proton n.m.r. spectra of Illinois No. 6 coal butylated with unenriched butyl iodide is split into a doublet by the ¹³C nuclei. Similar results were obtained for the methylation products. The chemical shift and coupling interaction establish that aryl ethers are a very important constituent of the alkylated coal. The carbon n.m.r. spectra of the coal alkylated with ¹³C-enriched alkyl iodides are intense. The resonances of the C-alkylation products appear in a single broad band with a maximum intensity in spectral regions compatible with the formation of the reductive alkylation products of certain polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons or the base-catalysed alkylation of certain benzylic carbon atoms. The resonances of the N -alkylation products appear in two distinct bands. These resonances are tentatively assigned to amines produced as a result of reductive alkylation of heterocyclic compounds. The resonances of the 0-alkylation products appear in three distinct bands which can be assigned to alkyl aryl ethers, alkyl aryl ethers with substituents at the adjacent positions, and to alkyl carboxylates. The ratio of ethers to carboxylates in the soluble alkylation products was determined to be 7.8 for butylation and 8.0 for methylation. The Chromatographic fractions contain different amounts of C-, N-, and 0-alkylation products. This finding suggests that the coal structure is not highly uniform.     

Molecular weight distributions and size fractionations of H-coal liquids

This Paper deals with a comparative study on the use of gel permeation chromatography (g.p.c.) and vapour pressure osmometry (v.p.o.) to obtain molecular weight data for the hexane-soluble fractions of three H-coal liquids. The use of two types of column packing materials, polyvinylacetate and styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer gels, is described. A successful, preparative use of the polyvinylacetate gel to fractionate the hexane-soluble fraction of H-coal liquid, atmospheric still overhead (ASO), has been established. Molecular weight data obtained by v.p.o. for the benzene-soluble fraction and the pyridine-soluble fraction of the three H-coal liquids are reported. Solvent extraction has been utilized also to find the amount of oil, asphaltenes and asphaltols in the three H-coal liquids.     

New and Improved Tests for Adhesion

Three new methods are discussed for measuring the work G_a, required to detach unit area of an adhering material from a substrate. The first is a simple modification of the Outwater double-torsion test for long rectangular plates, bonded together. This method is suitable for evaluating aluminum-epoxy bonds, for example, or the transverse strength of fibrous composites. The second is a pull-off test for long strips adhering to a rigid surface. It seems suitable for adhesive tapes and laminates. The third is a reconsideration of the “blister” test for films and coatings, in which a circular debond at the interface is made to grow by internal pressure. The relation obtained between pull-off force F for a strip, or blow-off pressure P for a layer, takes the unusual form:

F⁴ (or P⁴) ∞ KG³_a

where K is the tensile stiffness of the detaching layer. This dependence arises from the non-linear (cubic) relation between load or pressure and deflection in these configurations. Nevertheless, the product Fθ, where θ is the angle of detachment of a strip, or Py, where y is the height of a “blister”, give direct measures of the strength of adhesion G_a, independent of the stiffness of the adhering material and of the extent of detachment.
