    Notes: A finite element model of dendritic solidification of multicomponent alloys is presented that includes solutal convection and is an extension of a previously developed model for solidification of binary alloys. The model is applied to simulation of the solidification of ternary and quaternary Ni-based alloys. The role of solutal convection in the macrosegregation and the formation of freckles is analysed. Calculations show the effects of geometry and material properties on the convection patterns and the attendant segregation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: When compared with commonly used subdomain moment-method analysis, entire-domain analysis of 3D dielectric scatterers results in a greatly reduced number of unknowns. Unfortunately, the expressions for matrix elements tend to be quite complicated and their calculation extremely time-consuming if evaluated directly. It is shown in the paper that, in a Galerkin-type solution with large trilinear hexahedral basic volume elements and three-dimensional polynomial approximation of volume current inside them, these expressions can be manipulated analytically for optimized rapid non-redundant integration. Consequently, a method for the analysis of 3D dielectric scatterers is obtained that is efficient, rapidly converging with increasing degree of approximation for current, remarkably accurate and very moderate in computer memory requirements. The applicability of the method of moments is thereby extended to bodies of electrical sizes greatly exceeding those that can be dealt with by subdomain methods. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A simple, approximate, but very rapid and accurate image method is proposed for the analysis of arbitrary wire antennas above a lossy half-space. The reflected field from vertical and horizontal Hertzian dipoles is approximated by the field of a few ‘optimally’ positioned simple elementary sources. The field of images is incorported into the Hallén-type equations for the current distribution, resulting in equations of essentially the same form as those for an isolated antenna. The equations are solved by the point-matching method and polynomial approximation of current along the antenna segments. The results for the impedance and admittance of antennas assembled of vertical, horizontal and/or oblique segments are in excellent agreement with the exact results (obtained from the Sommerfeld theory). The proposed method is conceptually very simple and on average 25 times faster than the exact method, although in some cases it was found to be faster for even two orders of magnitude. This makes it particularly suitable for numerical optimization and CAD of relatively complicated antennas and other wire structures above a lossy half-space. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The atomic mixing model that forms the basis of the IMPETUS software is described in detail. The model simulates the mixing and particle emission that occurs when a solid is bombarded with energetic particles, such as in SIMS or SNMS. The methods employed for computing the deposition of the bombarding particles and their energies along with the modelling of the particle yield and the surface recession speed are described.The material volume concentrations are governed by a set of partial differential equations. A description of the finite element method that is employed for their solution is given. Results from the application of IMPETUS II to a number of typical structures are given. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A two-dimensional baroclinic model is described for coastal upwelling in a vertical plane perpendicular to the coast. The model consists of equations of motion, continuity and turbulence energy along with equations for salinity and thermal energy and an equation of state. The role of density gradient in the baroclinic pressure gradient is investigated to understand the dynamics during the upwelling process. To represent the surface and bottom boundaries corresponding to a fixed computational level in the discretized equations, a set of non-dimensional co-ordinates is used. These co-ordinates are then transformed onto logarithmic co-ordinate axes to resolve effectively the boundary layers.The first experiment is carried out with a flat bottom to understand the dynamics of the upwelling and the structural features of the process by diagnostic analysis of the balance between various terms of the momentum equation. Starting from a state of rest, a spatially uniform alongshore wind stress corresponding to the mean monthly wind stress for the month of May is applied and held constant thereafter. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and stratified, with the initial temperature and salinity having no horizontal variations but a uniform vertical gradient. As the upwelling phenomenon is transient in nature and keeping in mind the additional computational overheads, the response of the model is studied day-wise up to 4 days.In the second experiment the model is applied to study the upwelling off the east coast of India in a plane normal to the coast of Visakhapatnam. The analysis area extends to 100 km offshore with real topography. The results are presented day-wise for 4 days, comparing the balance between various terms in the upwelling region and in the open sea, and the dynamics of the baroclinic coastal jet is explained. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The finite element method is developed to solve the problem of wave run-up on a mild, plane slope. A novel approach to implementing a deforming mesh of one-dimensional, three-node, isoparametric elements is described and demonstrated. The discrete time interval (DTI), arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) and space-time element (STE) methods are used to solve the unsteady one-dimensional shallow water wave equations. The boundary condition required is simply the seaward water surface elevation, and although the method has only been tested for monochromatic waves, it should be equally valid for any sea state which can be described as a water surface elevation as a function of time. All three solution methods are shown to given good results. Time histories of the terms of the governing equations are calculated and used to demonstrate how the ALE and STE methods account for mesh deformation. The model could be extended to two dimensions, which would have practical application to the run-up of obliquely incident waves. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An enhanced solution strategy based on the SIMPLER algorithm is presented for low-Peclet-number mass transport calculations with applications in low-pressure material processing. The accurate solution of highly diffusive flows requires boundary conditions that preserve specified chemical species mass fluxes. The implementation of such boundary conditions in the standard SIMPLER solution procedure leads to degraded convergence that scales with the Peclet number. Modifications to both the non-linear and linear parts of the solution algorithm remove the slow convergence problem. In particular, the linearized species transport equations must be implicitly coupled to the boundary condition equations and the combined system must be solved exactly at each non-linear iteration. The pressure correction boundary conditions are reformulated to ensure that continuity is preserved in each finite volume at each iteration. The boundary condition scaling problem is demonstrated with a simple linear model problem. The enhanced solution strategy is implemented in a baseline computer code that is used to solve the multicomponent Navier-Stokes equations on a generalized, multiple-block grid system. Accelerated convergence rates are demonstrated for several material-processing example problems. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Systematic tests have been performed to study the behaviour of a numerical method developed to calculate 2D, steady free surface flows. The Reynolds equations are solved in the physical space by employing a non-orthogonal staggered grid, while the k-ε model is adopted to approximate the Reynolds stresses. The free surface is calculated following an iterative procedure and various parameters that affect convergence and accuracy of the numerical solution have been examined. Calculated results are compared with measured data for two cases, i.e. the wave generation above a bottom topography at various Froude numbers and the free surface formation above a submerged hydrofoil. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Pollutant dispersion under unstably stratified atmosphere was investigated numerically using the finite element method. The effects of atmospheric stability on plume trajectory were studied using a three-dimensional second-order closure dispersion model. The numerical model was implemented using domain decomposition method and carried out using a parallel computer. The computation accelerates significantly and the size of computation can be largely increased as a result of the parallelism. A passive contaminant point source was placed at the middle of the convective boundary layer to simulate the atmospheric dispersion. The requirement of the input of dispersion coefficients in k-theory and Gaussian models was replaced with direct input of turbulence flow data. It was found that the present numerical model can predict several non-Gaussian plume behaviours and the computed results agreed well with findings from experimental observations. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A high-resolution finite volume hydrodynamic solver is presented for open-channel flows based on the 2D shallow water equations. This Godunov-type upwind scheme uses an efficient Harten-Lax-van Leer (HLL) approximate Riemann solver capable of capturing bore waves and simulating supercritical flows. Second-order accuracy is achieved by means of MUSCL reconstruction in conjunction with a Hancock two-stage scheme for the time integration. By using a finite volume approach, the computational grid can be irregular which allows for easy boundary fitting. The method can be applied directly to model 1D flows in an open channel with a rectangular cross-section without the need to modify the scheme. Such a modification is normally required for solving the 1D St Venant equations to take account of the variation of channel width. The numerical scheme and results of three test problems are presented in this paper. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
