Local Exact Particle Tracing on Unstructured Grids

For analyzing and interpreting results of flow simulations, particle tracing is a well established visualization method. In addition, it is a preliminary step for more advanced techniques such as line integral convolution. For interactive exploration of large data sets, a very efficient and reliable particle tracing method is needed. For wind channel experiments or flight simulations, large unstructured computational grids have become common practice. Traditional approachs, based on numerical integration methods of ordinary differential equations however fail to deliver sufficiently accurate path calculation at the speed required for interactive use. In this paper we extend the local exact approach of Nielson and Jung in such a way that it can be used for interactive particle tracing in large data sets of steady flow simulation experiments. This will be achieved by sophisticated preprocessing using additional memory. For further visual enhancement of the streamline we construct an implicitly defined smooth Bézier curve that is used for ray tracing. This allows us to visualize additional scalar values of the simulation as attributes to the trajectory and enables the display of high‐quality smooth curves without creating any visualization geometry and providing a good impression of the spatial situation at the same time.

钻井液振动筛叠层筛网透筛率的研究

从理论上详细论述了钻井液振动筛叠层筛网对固相颗粒分离的影响 ,首次提出用透筛率的概念定量地描述这一影响 ,并进行了实例计算。研究表明 ,当上下层筛网随机叠加时对透筛率的影响有以下几种情况 :(1)当上下层筛网开孔尺寸相除的余数为零 ,任意组合叠层筛网的透筛率分别为某一常数 ;(2 )上层筛网目数一定时 ,下层筛网目数越大 ,则透筛率越小 ;(3)上下层筛网的目数相差越小 ,透筛率越小 ;(4 )任意目数的上下层筛网随机叠加后 ,其透筛率仅在一个小范围内变化 ,因此任一叠层筛网有其固有的透筛率属性。

Evolution of grain structure in thin film reactions

In this paper, we examine, both experimentally and theoretically, the kinetics of formation and microstructure of product phases in thin film reactions, using the Nb/Al and Ti/Al systems as our prototypes. The results of calorimetry and microscopy studies are interpreted using simple kinetic and morphology models. In particular, the kinetic models employed here focus on the nucleation and growth components of the phase formation process and the morphology models provide a starting point for the classification of product grain structures.

Indoor Air Quality: Exploring Policy Options to Reduce Human Exposures

Deciding between the different policy approaches available for reducing human exposures to indoor pollutants is an exceptionally complex task. These options can range from waiting until more definitive information is available to enacting regulatory standards, with many variations in between. This paper presents some of the factors policy-makers must consider in establishing indoor air quality policies, and the role researchers should play in ensuring that indoor air policies are based on the best available scientific information.
