Numerical model of solidification of cast composite with particles
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2010, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
In the paper the numerical model of heat transfer in non-homogeneous domain (cast composite) is considered. The composite is formed by the spherical particles (Pb) and the metal matrix (Al). Initial temperatures of components correspond to solid state (particle) and liquid one (matrix). The heat is transferred from the aluminum matrix and absorbed by the lead particle. The 3D problem, i.e. the cubic control volume with single spherical particle located at the center part of the cube, is considered. A numerical algorithm corresponding to the discussed mathematical model of the boundary-initial problem is constructed on the basis of control volume method and some examples of numerical results are shown.<br/><br/>

INFLUENCE OF THE STATIC LOADING OF A RAFT UNCONNECTED TO A PILE ON THE PILE DISPLACEMENTS TESTED IN FIELD CONDITIONS
We present the results of a static pile-raft interaction test in field conditions. The pile and the raft were unconnected. The static loading on the raft affected the displacements of the pile due to the skin friction. T...
