Analysis of the Impact of Seabed Earthquakes on Coastal Structures and Foundation Design
Abstract: Earthquakes in the seabed occur with varying magnitudes. Seabed earthquakes cause a rapid rise in water levels, which can lead to flooding and structural damage. Therefore, when designing buildings near the seashore, it is essential to account for the additional load on columns due to water thrust. Earthquakes occurring at the seabed generate intense ground acceleration of varying magnitudes, significantly affecting water levels and inducing destructive flooding along coastal regions. …

CFD Analysis of Double Diffusion Rotating Flow in a Cylindrical Annular MHD Braking System with Joules Heating and Dufour Effects
Abstract: The present study has investigated Joules parameter significance on an axisymmetric whirling flow within a cylindrical annulus, specifically focusing on an MHD braking system. The cylindrical annulus braking system is packed lithium lid liquid (Pr = 0.015), aspect ratio = 2, and imposed to an axial heat and magnetic field. In this study, the modified MAC pressure correction method has been used to solve the mixed convection flow with double …

Exploring Emerging Water Disinfection Technologies: A focus on Hydrodynamic Cavitation
Abstract: Availability of clean drinking water is an ongoing global demand. Contaminated water sources, inappropriate waste disposal, and inadequate hygiene procedures exacerbate it. These elements support the growth of pathogenic microbes like bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which cause a variety of diseases that are transmitted by water. Disinfection plays a vital role in water treatment processes by eliminating these pathogens and ensuring public health safety. Commonly used methods like Chlorination, Ozonation, …

Study on the Rocking Phenomenon of Parachute Rope
Abstract: With the constant development of computer technology and the development of numerical simulation techniques, the simulation of the dynamics of the parachute is becoming increasingly accurate. To eliminate the effects of large deformation of the grid in the conventional parachute simulation, we chose the parachute model using the smooth particle hydrodynamics method and performed a steady-state fluid-solid coupling numerical simulation, which is in good agreement with the calculated gas power …

Hydrodynamic Assessment of a Proposed FSRU Development in the Visakhapatnam Outer Harbour
Abstract: This study presents a detailed hydrodynamic assessment of a proposed Floating Storage andRegasification Unit (FSRU) in the Visakhapatnam Outer Harbour. A depth-integrated, two- dimensional hydrodynamic model was developed using MIKE-21 Flexible Mesh (FM) to quantify theinfluence of the terminal layout, dredged pocket configuration, and vessel presence on tidal circulation, freshet-driven flows, and extreme-event conditions. Baseline simulations were performed using existing bathymetry and operational geometries, followed by proposed configurations that included …

Study on the Method of Calculation of the Additional Mass of Parachute
Abstract: As is well known, the air drag experienced by a parachute when it is open is one of the important parameters that must be taken into account in studying the parachute opening process. If this term is not calculated correctly, it can have a negative effect on the parachute canopy, and may lead to errors in the number of parachute strings, the nominal diameter of the parachute, and the material …

Investigating the Dynamics of Quantum Plasmas: Current Advancements and Prospective Trajectories
Abstract: Plasma is regarded as quantum if its macroscopic properties are significantly affected by the quantum nature of its constituent particles. A proper description is necessary to comprehend the importance of collective quantum plasma effects. In this entry, the field of quantum plasmas, a generic exotic state of highly ionized matter where quantum effects are relevant, is discussed, for example, by dense plasmas arising from strong laser irradiation of solid targets …

Flow Structures Around Proposed Bridge Piers
Abstract: The current study investigated the flow hydrodynamics around proposed bridge pier and made comparison with existing bridge pier. To quantify the flow structures around the piers, the flow and turbulence parameters are analysed to understand the interference of one bridge pier over another. The experiments were performed on recirculating channel of 15 m length, 0.89 m width and 0.65 m height. Instantaneous three-dimensional velocity data was recorded by acoustic Doppler …

Accuracy Improvement for Propeller Cavitation Noise Prediction Using UDF
Abstract: Recently, there has been an increase in demand for propulsion systems with higher hydrodynamic performance and lower underwater-radiated noise, as environmental issues are gaining more attention in addition to the traditional military necessity. It is important to reduce cavitation noise when designing propellers of the ships, especially for oceanographic research vessels because they use acoustic instruments and cavitation noise can interfere with their operation. It is well known that, when …
