Inhomogeneous isoparametric elements for stress analysis of composites

The concept of inhomogeneous element is proposed and the formulations of the inhomogeneous isoparametric elements for stress analysis of four kinds of problems are derived. As an example of applications of the inhomogeneous elements, the stress distribution in a cone-like composite syntheticrope termination is calculated.

Measurements of Flow Patterns and Velocities of Gas -Water Two -Phase Flows Using Electrical Resistance Imaging

This paper presents a measurement of flow patterns and flow velocities of gas-water two-phase flows based on the technique of electrical resistance tomography (ERT) in a 40m horizontal flow loop. A single-plane and dual-plane ERT sensor on conductive ring technique were used to gather sufficient information for the implementation of flow characteristics particularly flow pattern recognition and air cavity velocity measurement. A fast data collection strategy was applied to the dual-plane ERT sensor and an iterative algorithm was used for image reconstruction. Results, in respect to flow patterns and velocity maps, are reported.
