Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation V

The fifth ERCOFfAC workshop 'Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation-5' (DLES-5) was held at the Munich University of Technology, August 27-29, 2003. It is part of a series of workshops that originated at the University of Surrey in 1994 with the intention to provide a forum for presentation and dis cussion of recent developments in the field of direct and large-eddy simula tion. Over the years the DLES-series has grown into a major international venue focussed on all aspects of DNS and LES, but also on hybrid methods like RANSILES coupling and detached-eddy simulation designed to provide reliable answers to technical flow problems at reasonable computational cost. DLES-5 was attended by 111 delega...

A Tradição da Liberdade

A Tradição da Liberdade - Tomo II é um contributo importante para compreender a diversidade que compõe o liberalismo, colocando o leitor em contacto com obras de referência de quatro autores europeus: os franceses Étienne de La Boétie (Discurso sobre a Servidão Voluntária) e Benjamin Constant (Da Liberdade dos Antigos Comparada à dos Modernos), o alemão Wilhelm von Humboldt (Os Limites da Acção do Estado) e o escocês Adam Smith (Riqueza das Nações). À excepção de La Boétie, que viveu no século XVI, todos viveram e escreveram em finais do século XVIII, inícios do século XIX – a fervilhante era da Declaração da Independência dos Estados Unidos da América (1776), da Revolução Francesa (1789) e do Iluminismo –, marcando de forma clara o pensamento da sua época e das seguintes. Um livro que, além de resumir quatro grandes obras do passado, mostra os muitos ensinamentos que elas têm para quem vive na Europa actual e acredita que o futuro passa por construir uma União Europeia ao serviço da liberdade, contra os retrocessos proteccionistas e as pulsões nacionalistas.

  • Publisher: Elsevier

This book provides a survey of the frontiers of research in the numerical modeling and mathematical analysis used in the study of the atmosphere and oceans. The details of the current practices in global atmospheric and ocean models, the assimilation of observational data into such models and the numerical techniques used in theoretical analysis of the atmosphere and ocean are among the topics covered.• Truly interdisciplinary: scientific interactions between specialties of atmospheric and ocean sciences and applied and computational mathematics • Uses the approach of computational mathematicians, applied and numerical analysts and the tools appropriate for unsolved problems in the atmospheric and oceanic sciences• Contributions uniquely address central problems and provide a survey of the frontier of research

New Tools in Turbulence Modelling

Numerical large-eddy simulation techniques are booming at present and will have a decisive impact on industrial modeling and flow control. The book represents the general framework in physical and spectral space. It also gives the recent subgrid-scale models. Topics treated include compressible turbulence research, turbulent combustion, acoustic predictions, vortex dynamics in non-trivial geometries, flows in nuclear reactors and problems in atmospheric and geophysical sciences. The book addresses numerical analysts, physicists, and engineers.

Mechanics of the 21st Century

This volume contains the proceedings of the 21st International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, ICTAM04, held in Warsaw, in August 2004. Full texts of 27 invited lectures are included. The book captures a snapshot view of the state-of-the-art in the field of contemporary mechanics and will be invaluable to engineers and scientists from a variety of disciplines with interest in the mechanical sciences. The importance of the influence of contemporary mechanics on other branches of sciences becomes evident by browsing through over 60 areas of interest selected as subjects of mini-symposia and pre-nominated sessions. The book gives clear evidence that "...the progress we have achieved together definitely places mechanics on one of the very top locations in the hierarchy of modern research disciplines – with tremendous impact on both our perception of the physical world and the means to implement new technologies so much improving the quality of our life." (M. Kleiber, Opening Speech).

Metal Casting and Welding

Metal Casting and Welding

Metal casting is the process of producing metal or alloy component parts. In casting the metal is heated sufficiently to make it into liquid and then poured into moulds of the desired shape. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes so that would be difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods. Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials usually metals by using high heat to melt the parts together and allowing them to cool causing fusion. Many different energy sources can be used for welding including gas flame, electric arc, a laser and electron beam, friction and ultrasonic. Our hope is that this book, through its careful explanations and concepts and its use of sketches and figures bridges the gap between knowledge and proper application of that knowledge.

Advanced Inorganic Fibers

F. T. Wallenberger This book serves as an introduction to advanced inorganic fibers and aims to support fundamental research, assist applied scientists and designers in industry, and facilitate materials science instruction in universities and colleges. Its three main sections deal with fibers which are derived from the vapor phase such as single crystal silicon whiskers or carbon nanotubes, from the liquid phase such as advanced glass and single crystal oxide fibers, and from solid precursor fibers such as carbon and ceramic fibers. Contents FIBERS FROM THE VAPOR, LIQUID AND SOLID PHASE 1.1 The most important phase isthe liquid phase 1.2 Afiber by any name isstill afiber 1.3 Biographic sket...
