Effect of geometry modifications on the engulfment in micromixers: Numerical simulations and stability analysis

The effect of geometry variations on the engulfment regime in micromixers is investigated. The engulfment regime is a steady flow regime resulting from a symmetry-breaking pitchfork bifurcation as the Reynolds number (based on the hydraulic diameter and bu ...

Stabilization of electrodynamic bearings with active magnetic dampers

Qingwen Cui

Electrodynamic Bearings (EDBs) are a kind of passive magnetic bearings that exploits the interaction between the induced eddy currents in a conductor and a magnetic field to provide re-storing forces. They have been regarded as an appealing alternative to ...

One-dimensional bedforms in shallow water flow over erodible slope: stability analysis and stochastic dynamics.

Christophe Ancey

We consider one-dimensional bedforms (e.g., anti-dunes, dunes, ripples), and investigate their stability and stochastic dynamics by combining numerical stochastic simulations and linear stability analysis. We focus on anti-dune development in supercritical ...

Consensus algorithms and plug-and-play control for current sharing in DC microgrids

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate

In this paper, we propose a secondary consensus-based control layer for current sharing and voltage balancing in DC microGrids (mGs). Differently from existing approaches based on droop control, we assume decentralized Plug-and-Play (PnP) controllers at th ...

Intrinsic structural transitions of the pyramidal I < c plus a > dislocation in magnesium

William Curtin, Zhaoxuan Wu

The stability of a mixed < c + a > dislocation on the pyramidal I plane in magnesium is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The dislocation is metastable and undergoes a thermally-activated transition to either a sessile, basal-dissociated < c + ...

Economic plant-wide control design with backoff estimations using internal model control

Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti

Economic optimal operation typically involves operating as close as possible to the active constraints. However, in the presence of disturbances it is necessary to back-off from the constraints in order to avoid violating them. The backoff approach aims at ...

From wrinkling to global buckling of a ring on a curved substrate

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

We present a combined analytical approach and numerical study on the stability of a ring bound to an annular elastic substrate, which contains a circular cavity. The system is loaded by depressurizing the inner cavity. The ring is modeled as an Euler-Berno ...

Temporally Coherent Clustering of Student Data

The extraction of student behavior is an important task in educational data mining. A common approach to detect similar behavior patterns is to cluster sequential data. Standard approaches identify clusters at each time step separately and typically show l ...

Stability Analysis of Discontinuous Galerkin Approximations to the Elastodynamics Problem

Alfio Quarteroni

We consider semi-discrete discontinuous Galerkin approximations of both displacement and displacement-stress formulations of the elastodynamics problem. We prove the stability analysis in the natural energy norm and derive optimal a-priori error estimates. ...

High order discontinuous Galerkin methods on simplicial elements for the elastodynamics equation

Alfio Quarteroni, Carlo Marcati

In this work we apply the discontinuous Galekin (dG) spectral element method on meshes made of simplicial elements for the approximation of the elastodynamics equation. Our approach combines the high accuracy of spectral methods, the geometrical flexibilit ...
