Natural convection heat transfer of nanofluids along a vertical plate embedded in porous medium

Ziya Uddin, Souad Harmand

The unsteady natural convection heat transfer of nanofluid along a vertical plate embedded in porous medium is investigated. The Darcy-Forchheimer model is used to formulate the problem. Thermal conductivity and viscosity models based on a wide range of experimental data of nanofluids and…

Understanding soft evidence as probabilistic evidence : illustration with several use cases

Ali Ben Mrad, Véronique Delcroix, Sylvain Piechowiak, Mohamed-Amine Maalej, Mohamed Abid

This paper aims to get a better understanding of the notions of evidence, probabilistic evidence and likelihood evidence in Bayesian Networks. Evidence comes from an observation of one or several variables. Soft evidence is probabilistic evidence, since the observation consists in a local…

Barriers to reverse logistics implementation in enterprises

Marta Starostka-Patyk, Marcin Zawada, Aleksander Pabian, Mourad Abed

Reverse logistics concept in the global scale has been already existing for about two decades. However, in Poland it is quite new one, not very popular and widespread. During the constant economy development and increasing market competition Polish enterprises are forced to seek for some modern…

Robustness study and reliability growth based on exploratory design of experiments and statistical analysis: a case study using a train door test bench

Laurent Cauffriez, Pierre Loslever, Nathalie Caouder, Fabien Turgis, Reynald Copin

This paper presents a methodology to improve the reliability/robustness of a complex mechatronic system for passenger access, which is greatly stressed over its life cycle. The proposed methodology aims to weed out design problems during the development phase and to test the robustness of the…

How to learn from the resilience of Human–Machine Systems?

Kiswendsida Abel Ouedraogo, Simon Enjalbert, Frédéric Vanderhaegen

This paper proposes a functional architecture to learn from resilience. First, it defines the concept of resilience applied to Human–Machine System (HMS) in terms of safety management for perturbations and proposes some indicators to assess this resilience. Local and global indicators for…

Inducing Swirling Flow in Heat Exchanger Pipes for Reduced Fouling Rate

Halldor Pálsson, François Beaubert, Sylvain Lalot

Fouling buildup in circular heat exchanger pipes is a common problem in the industry. Various methods have been proposed to increase the shear stress of the fluid near the pipe wall. This is known to reduce fouling rate, as well as increasing the heat transfer rate of heat exchangers. In this…

Onset of atomization on horizontal, shear-driven liquid films at the vicinity of a sharp corner

Evangelos Bacharoudis, Hervé Bratec, Laurent Keirsbulck, Jean-Marie Buchlin, Larbi Labraga

In many engineering applications, the liquid films have to deal with sudden changes of the wall geometries in which they flow over. The present work concerns the study of the onset of the film atomization in corner geometries. Specifically, films with thickness in the range of 1 mm < hf < 2.5…
