The internal steady and unsteady flows with a frequency and amplitude are examined through a backward facing step (expansion ratio 2), for low Reynolds numbers ($Re=400$, $Re=800$), using the immersed boundary method. A lower part of the backward facing...

In the Oil and Gas industry, installing pipe loops is a well-known hydraulic practice to increase oil pipeline capacities. Nevertheless, pipe loops could promote an unfavorable phenomenon known as fouling. That means that in a heavy oil-water mixture...

The aim of this research was to design a physically consistent model for the forced torsional vibrations of automotive driveshafts that considered aspects of the following phenomena: excitation due to the transmission of the combustion engine through...

The residue number system (RNS) is widely used in different areas due to the efficiency of modular addition and multiplication operations. However, non-modular operations, such as sign and division operations, are computationally complex. A fractiona...

The present study evaluated a newly developed computational tool (CT) to assess the alveolar bone space and the alveolar crest angle and compares it to dentist assessment (GT). The novel tool consisted of a set of processes initiated with image enhan...

The unprecedented global health threat of SARS-CoV-2 has sparked a continued interest in discovering novel anti-COVID-19 agents. To this end, we present here a computer-based protocol for identifying potential compounds targeting RNA-dependent RNA po...

Receiving a recommendation for a certain item or a place to visit is now a common experience. However, the issue of trustworthiness regarding the recommended items/places remains one of the main concerns. In this paper, we present an implementation o...

When catastrophic failure phenomena in aircraft structures, such as debonding, are numerically analyzed during their design process in the frame of “Damage Tolerance” philosophy, extreme requirements in terms of time and computational res...

This article demonstrates the feasibility of porous separation on the performance of displacement ventilation in a rectangular enclosure. A jet of fresh air enters the cavity through an opening at the bottom of the left wall and exits through an open...

In this investigation, a comprehensive numerical analysis of the flow involved in an open-ended straight channel fully filled with a porous metal foam saturated and a phase change material (paraffin) has been performed using a single relaxation time...

An infectious disease can cause a detrimental effect on national security. A group such as the military called a “closed population”, which is a subset of the general population but has many distinct characteristics, must survive even in...

Fuel elements in a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) core may be stacked with a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) structure; therefore, analyzing the temperature distribution and heat transfer efficiency in the HCP pebble bed is of great signific...
