In the 3D case, such methods utilize a 7-point stencil, requiring modification of the solvers. The aim of this work is to develop similar solvers for systems arising from the solution of three-dimensional problems using cell-centered methods with a 7-point discretization stencil. Formulas for computing the elements of the system matrices in three-dimensional subdomains and on interface planes, considering the 7-point stencil, are derived. It is shown that the structure of the interface system matrix coincides with the two-dimensional case. Therefore, the same direct solver used for 2D can be applied. Solving systems within subdomains is performed using the FGMRES method with preconditioning. When using the multigrid method as a preconditioner, certain parts of the algorithm require modifications for the transition from 2D to 3D. An algorithm for 3D ADLJ-smoother is presented. Since the considered system is derived from cell-centered grid methods where unknowns are located at cell centers rather than grid nodes, non-standard projection and prolongation operators are required for transferring between grid levels. The general principle for their constructing is demonstrated for 1D. Based on these formulas, three-dimensional operators are constructed for all possible cases. The developed solvers were verified on systems formed when solving three-dimensional hydrodynamics problems using the LS-STAG-3D immersed boundary cell-centered method with a 7-point stencil. For comparison, similar solvers for the two-dimensional case were also considered, applied to systems of the same dimension but formed from solving two-dimensional hydrodynamics problems using the LS-STAG method. Computational experiments show that the required accuracy is achieved in a comparable number of iterations for 2D and 3D problems of the same system dimension.</p>","PeriodicalId":783,"journal":{"name":"Technical Physics","volume":"71 of","pages":"313 - 326"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148009352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, the derivation is based on the concept of the work function, rather than the conventional approach based on the yield criterion and its associated flow rule.

In this paper, we studied the propagation of long waves in the Bosphorus Strait using the ADCIRC numerical hydrodynamic model. Spatial distributions of sea level during the propagation of long waves in the Bosphorus Strait were analyzed for different scenarios of their generation. Three cases of wave generation were considered: propagation of a single wave in the Bosphorus Strait from the Black and Marmara seas; propagation of a tsunami in the strait; and sea level disturbance caused by bottom movement inside the strait. It has been established that when single long waves penetrate the strait, the height along the strait axis does not exceed the initial wave height, while level fluctuations near the coast could increase by more than 1.5 times compared to the height of the initial disturbance. The maximum level increases in the Bosphorus Strait when tsunami waves penetrate from the Black Sea could reach over 1.6 m. When a tsunami from the Sea of Marmara spread in the strait, the level increase was about 2.7 m.

Present peculiarities of interpersonal information communication medium are considered as a special “digital world” with the formation of formal collective behavior rules. The effects of spontaneous pulsed phenomena of mass activity of digital communication participants and the sharp increase in the interest indicators, which is induced by an aggressive content have become regular events. The features that make it possible to employ the principles of physical analogies to analyze the transmission if emotional contagion and psychological excitation between different network sites, where processes are analogous to media with different abilities of neutron slowing down and absorption in a reactor. The groups that have experienced influence become unstable and emit pulses themselves in the network of their contacts like the radioactive isotope nuclei, albeit not at random, but via the created contacts. The wave of influence dissipates and changes the topological structure of stable social communications and produces new but not random communications. The conception of modeling of the explosive growth of tension in a network and emotional contagion effects is substantiated using the concepts of network chain reactions, in which the method for analyzing the traffic based on artificial intelligence are characterized by a regular function. In a virtual medium with a global transmission of a content that has induced a mass response, the terms like “network storm,” “information tsunami,” and “hype waves” are used since new wave effects have appeared in the network. The phenomena of short surges of mutual aggression in a network are studied in the context of emotional contagion. The spreading of this effect in the epoch of algorithms of formation of news feeds can be made controlled and targeted. In the specially induced processes of an extremely intense propagation of an information content causing a response in the communication network, the conditions for manipulation over the offline behavior of a group of susceptible users, which play the role of nuclei decaying in a neutron flow, are maintained. The technologies of network traffic monitoring and tracing make it possible to determine the form of a sharp intensification in the network activity. Examples of the artificially created agitative interest because of information leak technology are investigated. For a targeted promotion of the content and for raising its popularity indicators, coordinated chains of fake accounts are used, which changes the type of oscillations of network traffic. The scenarios of organization of information waves during fake leaks and the dynamics of spontaneous formation of naturally attenuating waves are considered.

The topicality of this investigation is due to the growing demand in hydrogen technologies and the requirements of reduction of the carbon trace in heat-and-power engineering. Potential sources of hydrogen-containing fuel (including the possibility of recycling waste gases from various systems of oil-processing plants) are considered. This study is aimed at analysis of peculiarities of heat and technical parameters in the transition to the combustion of methane–hydrogen mixtures (MHM) with different hydrogen contents using a fire-tube three-pass water-heating boiler with a power of 8 MW. In the course of investigation, a complex thermal design of a boiler has been considered for different operation modes and hydrogen contents in the fuel mixture. A special software in the Python language has been developed for the automated designing of MHM combustion processes and for heat-exchange surfaces of the boiler. The results of investigations demonstrate that an increase in the fraction of hydrogen in the fuel to 20% makes it possible to increase the boiler efficiency by 0.1%, while the complete transition to hydrogen increases the efficiency from 0.4 to 1.3% depending of the load of a boiler aggregate. In this case, a substantial decrease in the discharge of CO<sub>2</sub> to the atmosphere is observed, while after the complete transition to hydrogen, carbon dioxide outbursts are absent. However, a transition to hydrogen fuel requires analysis of a number of technical limitations (reduction of the caloric power, increase of volume flow rate of the fuel, and changes in combustion type and heat transfer).
