A process model was developed to determine the net energy ratio (NER) for both regular and steam-pretreated pellet production from ligno-cellulosic biomass. NER is a ratio of the net energy output to the total net energy input from non-renewable energy source into the system. Scenarios were...

Pare, Phililp E., Hashemi, Ehsan, Stern, Raphael, Sandberg, Henrik, Johansson, Karl Henrik
This paper proposes a cooperative adaptive cruise control model, adding a communication network structure to an existing model that has been shown to capture real commercial adaptive cruise control vehicle behavior. The proposed model is interesting because it only requires minimal information...

Numerical and experimental comparison of confinement effects on a Fully-Passive Oscillating-Foil Turbine
Download2022-06-01
Gunther, K., Mann, S., Dumas, G., Oshkai, P.
A numerical and experimental comparison of a fully-passive oscillating-foil turbine operating in different confinement levels is conducted to assert how well CFD-based FSI simulations can predict the performances of the turbine. It is found the present 3D URANS simulations match reasonably well...

Zabihi, Mojtaba, Li, Ri, Brinkerhoff, Joshua, Little, Jonathan, Winkler, Jake
It has been more than two years since the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our world. Schools cannot be closed forever and now it is the time for everyone to go back to work. Classrooms are among the highest risk places because of their nature. Where many students are sitting for hours and one...

Gholami, Aysan, Afra, Behrooz, Tarokh, Ali
This study investigates the pitching motion of an elastic filament flapping in a uniform laminar flow. The Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) as the fluid solver and the Lattice Spring Model (LSM) as the solid structure solver are employed to solve filament motion in the flow. The LBM and LSM are...

Numerical Modeling Of Gravity Decantation Tank For Mine-Water Treatment In Underground Mines
Download2022-06-01
Alzoubi, Mahmoud A., Monot, Antoine, Provost, Philippe-Olivier, Rancourt, David, Poncet, Sébastien
Reducing the overall mine-water consumption is a necessity in moving toward a more sustainable mining industry in Canada. Water treatment is a key requirement to achieve this goal. This study numerically investigates the dynamics of a decantation process as a technique to recycle and reuse...
