In this study, the characteristics and cause of local peak pressure observed on the surface of a super high-rise building with lower parts in an actual urban area are investigated through a relationship with the flow characteristics. A large-eddy simulation (LES) of a high-density area including several super high-rise buildings is carried out using the turbulent inflow boundary condition. It is confirmed that the large peak suction near the windward corner of the target building is induced by the development of strong conical vortex. The rotation of a conical vortex is accelerated by the separated shear layer generated by the windward building and the lower part of the target building when negative peak pressure occurs.","PeriodicalId":429847,"journal":{"name":"15th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM-XV) and 8th Asian Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM-VIII)","volume":"190 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133812164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"Time-dependent modelling of quasi-brittle materials with a strong discontinuity approach","authors":"S. Chianeh, D. Dias‐da‐Costa","doi":"10.23967/wccm-apcom.2022.115","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.23967/wccm-apcom.2022.115","url":null,"abstract":". The time-dependent behaviour of quasi-brittle materials can have a significant effect on ser-viceability and ultimate failure. E.g., in the case of concrete structures, the presence of cracking can evolve, propagate and gradually widen over time, therefore significantly changing the stress state and expected structural response. The development of models that can account for the discrete nature of cracking whilst predicting time-dependent behaviour can be of interest to many practical applications. The discrete strong discontinuity approach (DSDA) has been validated as a reliable approach for sim-ulating the cracking phenomenon by directly embedding the traction-separation constitutive relation within finite elements, therefore enriching standard finite element models with the ability to capture cracks, where material can separate without the need for remeshing. This work presents a generalisation to account for the long-term behaviour of cracked quasi-brittle materials, more specifically creep and shrinkage. To this end, a rate-type creep is first applied through a number of kelvin units; the interaction of the resulting response from the Kelvin chain system, shrinkage, and discrete cracking is developed to obtain a suitable constitutive model for the discrete crack simulations. Finally, the formulation is deployed on a finite element code where the performance of the proposed model is assessed through representative numerical examples.","PeriodicalId":429847,"journal":{"name":"15th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM-XV) and 8th Asian Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM-VIII)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126100681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Targeted ENO (TENO) has been proposed to overcome the shortcomings of WENO schemes, namely excessive dissipation of lower-order upwind-biased and degenerated schemes, and limited robustness of central-biased schemes. TENO offers a set of free parameters to shape the inherent effective local dissipation and dispersion. In the original formulation of TENO, these free parameters have been adjusting by means of the approximate dissipation-dispersion relation. Hence, the TENO formulation may be superior in this aspect, yet, it does not necessarily outperform other schemes in flows involving non-linear interaction of a broad range of scales. Data-driven methods enable optimizing these free parameters instead of adjusting them. In this work, we demonstrate the application of an iterative Bayesian optimization approach on designing fifth-order TENO (TENO5) schemes. Exploiting that Bayesian optimization efficiently and robustly finds an optimum of an expensive function with a low number of trials, we construct specific TENO5-schemes for compressible flows with gas dynamic discontinuities as well as for implicit large eddy simulation (ILES). For the former, we measure the error between under-resolved simulations of the Sod shock tube and its analytical solution for automatically generated TENO5 formulations as the objective. For the latter, under-resolved inviscid Taylor-Green vortex flows are evolved to their turbulent state, in which their kinetic energy spectrum in the inertial subrange is compared to the theoretical Kolmogorov-scaling solution to formulate its objective. We show that these two TENO5 formulations perform superior to the original formulation of TENO5 relevant to the specific types of flows. Also, a variety of benchmark test flows show that both specific TENO5 formulations outperform the original one in terms of phase speed, shock-preservation, as well as physical consistency of fluid-dynamic instabilities and turbulent flows.","PeriodicalId":429847,"journal":{"name":"15th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM-XV) and 8th Asian Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM-VIII)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126171650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are soft materials, which are capable of large deforma-tions induced by temperature changes and ultraviolet irradiation [1]. Therefore, since many years, these materials are under investigation in experimental researches as actuator materials. LCEs arise from a nematic polymer melt, consisting of long and flexible polymer chains as well as oriented and rigid rod-like molecules, the so-called mesogens, by crosslinking. After this process, the flow ability and the orientation of the mesogens is retained. To date, the alignment of LCEs is primarily achieved in thin films. When the orientational order in the film is lost due to temperature changes or ultraviolet irradiation, the LCE film is capable of length changes of 400 percent. In order to numerically simulate LCE materials as actuators in multibody system models by using the finite element method, a continuum formulation is necessary, which include in a thermo-viscoelastic material formulation of the polymer chains the orientation effects of the mesogens. This can be performed by introducing a normalized direction vector as an independent field, and deriving from additional (orientational) balance laws independent differential equations [2]. These differential equations describe the independent rotation of the rigid mesogens connected with the flexible polymer chains. The orientation-dependent stress law of LCEs arises from an anisotropic","PeriodicalId":429847,"journal":{"name":"15th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM-XV) and 8th Asian Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM-VIII)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116728007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The new Geomiso DNL software is proposed to facilitate the use of isogeometric analysis for nonlinear inelastic dynamic applications. This hybrid software solution combines isogeometric analysis and 3D design with advanced spline techniques, such as NURBS and T-splines. Its dual nature satisfies the rising industrial need for unification of the fields of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided analysis (CAE), as it eliminates geometric errors by merging geometry design with mesh generation into a single procedure. This paper presents sample nonlinear applications in structural dynamics. Geomiso DNL is seen to handle these situations remarkably well, as the numerical examples exhibit significantly improved accuracy of the results, and reduced computational cost, when compared with finite element software packages. It is argued that Geomiso DNL is a new, more efficient, alternative to FEA software packages.

In future cities, micrometeorological predictions will be essential to various services such as drone operations. However, the real-time prediction is difficult even by using a super-computer. To re-duce the computation cost, super-resolution (SR) techniques can be utilized, which infer high-resolution images from low-resolution ones. The present paper confirms the validity of three-dimensional (3D) SR for micrometeorology prediction in an urban city. A new neural network is proposed to simultaneously super-resolve 3D temperature and velocity fields. The network is trained using the micrometeorology simulations that incorporate the buildings and 3D radiative transfer. The error of the 3D SR is sufficiently small: 0.14 K for temperature and 0.38 m s − 1 for velocity. The computation time of the 3D SR is negligible, implying the feasibility of real-time predictions for the urban micrometeorology.","PeriodicalId":429847,"journal":{"name":"15th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM-XV) and 8th Asian Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM-VIII)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132108877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
