The quantification of the overall "R-value" of building components is commonly achieved by using numerical models which are generally validated using the standardized Hot Box test.
This paper studies bridge fires by using numerical models to analyze the response of a typical girder bridge to tanker truck fires.
For the development of the method, an extensive parametric study consisting of about 20.500 analysis cases was carried out by using numerical models, which in turn were validated against a wide range of experimental results.
This technique, non-uniformity coefficient (NUC), based on uniform design theory is illustrated by using numerical modeling of microchannel heat sinks with complex structure and computer experiments combined with image analysis.
The present contribution addresses the problem of estimating building heating energy consumptions by using numerical models able to simulate the dynamic interaction between the building and the heating system.
We will show that by using numerical models, and by comparing results to spacecraft observations, much can be learned about the dependence of cosmic ray modulation on solar cycle changes in the solar wind and heliospheric magnetic field.
By using numerical modeling, we demonstrate a potential advantage of five-sphere focusing chains of sapphire or ruby spheres with index n=1.71 for ablating the tissue with self-limited depth around 10-20 μm.
By using numerical simulation of a wedge-shaped model and S-parameter retrieval method, we found that the DE-designed silver nanowires structure can exhibit a low loss LH frequency band at the yellow-light wavelength of 595 nm with the FOM of 45.8, that means it may have practical applications because of its low loss and high transmission.
