3D hp-Adaptive Finite Element Simulations of Bend, Step, and Magic-T Electromagnetic Waveguide Structures
(2014-03)Metallic rectangular waveguides are often the preferred choice on telecommunication systems and medical equipment working on the upper microwave and millimeter wave frequency bands due to the simplicity of its geometry, ... -
Surrogate based Global Sensitivity Analysis of ADM1-based Anaerobic Digestion Model
(2021)In order to calibrate the model parameters, Sensitivity Analysis routines are mandatory to rank the parameters by their relevance and fix to nominal values the least influential factors. Despite the high number of works ... -
Refined isogeometric analysis for generalized Hermitian eigenproblems
(2021-04)We use refined isogeometric analysis (rIGA) to solve generalized Hermitian eigenproblems (Ku = λMu). rIGA conserves the desirable properties of maximum-continuity isogeometric analysis (IGA) while it reduces the solution ... -
A blackbox optimization of volumetric heating rate for reducing the wetness of the steam flow through turbine blades
(2021-01)This paper proposes to use a blackbox optimization to obtain the optimal volumetric heating required to reduce the wetness at the last stages of steam turbines. For this purpose, a global multiobjective optimization is ... -
Numerical Investigation of Wet Inflow in Steam Turbine Cascades Using NURBS-based Mesh Generation Method
(2020)In this paper, the impact of existence of wetness in the inflow of stationary cascades of steam turbine blades has been numerically investigated. A new mesh generation method based on non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) ...
