Sentence examples for thermal elements from inspiring English sources

Unlike finite elements or other modern numerical techniques, however, no discretization errors are involved in the discrete thermal elements.

The brick SOLID70 and spar LINK33 thermal elements (ANSYS-Release Version 2013) are used to model the concrete and GFRP bars, respectively.

The number of Lagrangian thermal elements must be carefully selected and the model is not designed to provide insights into the species distributions in the fire.

We will also expose the use of mixed order elements (first order mechanical elements strongly coupled with quadratic thermal elements) which, as we will show, is of particular interest for modeling fast processes inducing important temperature gradients.

Besides from attention to the liquids and optics of the instrument, the correct functioning of thermal elements and cooling devices are equally important for high quality runs.

Actuated by a thermal element (liquid-filled bourdon tube) that expands and contracts in response to changes in temperature, the stylus scribes a continuous record of temperature and depth.

For each time step, a thermal element activation scheme captures the material deposition process.

To simulate the upheaval buckling, a 2-D finite element model of 500 m long pipeline-seabed soil system was developed in OpenSEES using the thermal element.

Depending on the irradiation duration, the size of the thermal element at the measurement time can be much greater than the waist of the excitation beam.

At low frequencies, the size of the thermal element is almost independent of the degree of focusing of the excitation beam because a smaller beam waist induces a faster thermal expansion.

In contrast, at high frequency, the size of the thermal element remains closer to the size of the excitation beam and the signal is inversely proportional to the waist of the excitation beam as previously demonstrated under pulsed-laser excitation.
