Published: August 2004

The planar 2D k-epsilon double equations' turbulence model was adopted and transformed into non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinates. The concentration convection-diffusion was introduced to planar 2D SIMPLEC algorithm of flow in non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinates. The numerical model of pollutant transportation in non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinates was constructed. The model was applied to simulate the flow and pollutant concentration fields. In the testing concentration field, two optimal operations of contamination discharging both along bank and in the centerline at the first bend of the meandering channel were adopted. Comparison with available data showed the model developed was successful, was valuable to engineering application.

Eckart-Sayvetz conditions revisited.

J Chem Phys

June 2014

It is shown that vibrational displacements satisfying the Eckart-Sayvetz conditions can be constructed by projection of unconstrained displacements. This result has a number of interesting direct and indirect ramifications: (i) The normal coordinates corresponding to an electronic state or an isotopologue of a molecule are transformed to those of another state or isotopologue by a linear and, in general, non-orthogonal transformation. (ii) Novel interpretation of axis switching.

In composite arterial coronary grafts (CACGs), transport phenomena and geometry may considerably alter blood flow dynamics. CACGs aim at revascularizing pathological arteries according to the human anatomy. However, the exact mechanisms causing the failure of coronary bypass grafting are not yet well elucidated.

A fast, short method for calculating orthogonal polynomials has been programmed in BASIC. This is combined with the retrieval of b coefficients for the original, non-orthogonal model in, for example, a curvilinear regression. The program may be used alone, or in conjunction with a package of BASIC programs for weighted least-squares solutions, to which it forms an update.
