Turbulent drag reduction by traveling waves of spanwise forcing
No full textSeveral techniques based on spanwise focing were introduced in the last decade \cite{du-symeonidis-karniadakis-2002, quadrio-ricco-viotti-2009} in the form of traveling waves of spanwise forcing as generalization of the spanwise-wall oscillation technique to reduce skin-friction drag in a turbulent channel flow. Here we examine all their variants (including one that has never been considered before), by addressing the type of forcing (wall movement versus body force) as well as the traveling direction (streamwise versus spanwise) of the waves. We carry out a DNS-based study within an unified framework, to compare their capability to reduce skin-friction drag and, more importantly, net energy savings. The present results confirm the potential for drag reductions for every considered forcing. The best-performing spanwise traveling wave, in terms of either drag reduction or net energy saving, is found to be the one with infinite wavelength, i.e. still the spanwise wall oscillation. The streamwise-traveling waves consistently offer the best performance, especially in terms of net savings. The conditions under which body-force based control can be meaningfully compared to wall based control are discussed

A numerical study for turbulent flow and thermal influence over inhomogenous canopy of roughness elements
No full textA large-eddy simulation with transitional structure function(TSF) subgrid model we previously proposed was performed to investigate the turbulent flow with thermal influence over an inhomogeneous canopy, which was represented as alternative large and small roughness elements. The aerodynamic and thermodynamic effects of the presence of a layer of large roughness elements were modelled by adding a drag term to the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations and a heat source/sink term to the scalar equation, respectively. The layer of small roughness elements was simply treated using the method as described in paper (Moeng 1984, J. Atmos Sci. 41, 2052–2062) for homogeneous rough surface. The horizontally averaged statistics such as mean vertical profiles of wind velocity, air temperature, et al., are in reasonable agreement with Gao et al.(1989, Boundary layer meteorol. 47, 349–377) field observation (homogeneous canopy). Not surprisingly, the calculated instantaneous velocity and temperature fields show that the roughness elements considerably changed the turbulent structure within the canopy. The adjustment of the mean vertical profiles of velocity and temperature was studied, which was found qualitatively comparable with Belcher et al. (2003, J Fluid Mech. 488, 369–398)'s theoretical results. The urban heat island(UHI) was investigated imposing heat source in the region of large roughness elements. An elevated inversion layer, a phenomenon often observed in the urban area (Sang et al., J Wind Eng. Ind. Aesodyn. 87, 243–258)'s was successfully simulated above the canopy. The cool island(CI) was also investigated imposing heat sink to simply model the evaporation of plant canopy. An inversion layer was found very stable and robust within the canopy

Evaluating spatial equity in bike share systems
No full textThis research analyzes 10 of the largest third generation docked bike share systems in the United States along with 3 docked bike share systems in New Jersey. These bike share systems were carefully selected to reflect diversity in their size and age, and their host region’s size and geography as well as data availability.This report was developed by the New Jersey Bicycle and Pedestrian Resource Center within the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center (VTC) at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. The research team included Charles T. Brown, MPA, Principal Investigator, Devajyoti Deka, PhD, Aashna Jain, Anish Grover, and Qingyang Xie.

GAYA BAHASA DAKWAH DAN KONSEP GENDER DALAM NOVEL XIE XIE NI DE AI KARYA MELL SHALIHA
No full textAbstrak: Pembahasan tentang gaya bahasa dakwah dan konsep gender dalam novel Xie Xie Ni De Ai karya Mell Shaliha ini didasarkan pada dua alaan mendasar yaitu; pertama, penulis novel (Mell Shaliha) adalah seorang muslimah yang pernah menjadi TKW di Hongkong, dan kedua dalam novel ini banyak terdapat pesan-pesan dakwah, baik untuk remaja maupun dewasa, khususnya untuk para TKW Indonesia. Berdasarkan kajian dan analisis mendalam terhadap isi novel, maka ditemukan gaya bahasa dakwah yang sekaligus ada isu gendernya adalah gaya bahasa dakwah Ta’lim dan Tarbiyah, Tazkir dan Tanbih, Tarhib dan Inzar, serta Amar dan Nahi. Sedangkan isu gender dalam novel ini adalah: aurat perempuan, interaksi dengan lawan jenis, persamaan status laki-laki dan perempuan, kodrat dan persamaan peran laki-laki dan perempuan, perempuan sebagai motivator, dan kepemimpinan.
A discussion of the language style of preaching and the concept of gender in the novel Xie Xie Ni De Ai Shaliha Mell \u27s work is based on two fundamental alaan namely: first, the author of the novel (Mell Shaliha) is a Muslim woman who had been a maid in Hong Kong, and the second in the novel there is a lot of propaganda messages, both for adolescents and adults, especially for Indonesian maids. Based on in-depth study and analysis of the content of the novel, it was found that at the same time preaching style there is a gender issue Ta\u27lim preaching style and Tarbiyah, Tazkir and Tanbih, Tarheeb and Inzar, and Amar and Nahi. While the gender issues in this novel are: female genitalia, the interaction with the opposite sex, equality of men and women, the nature and role of equality of men and women, women as a motivator, and leadership.

Xie Lingyun's Shanju --The literature of <Ju> (II)
No full textXie Lingyun's Shanju fu 山居賦 is the great fu text which succeed to Pan Yue 潘岳's Xianju fu 閑居賦, on whose features and its importance in Chinese medieval literature I explained in my former essay : The literature of Ju --a view point for Shanshui 山水/Yinyi 隱逸 literature of Six dynasties (Journal of Chinese Literature, vol. XLII). These two fu, however, are very contrastive in an essential point. While Pan Yue's Xianju is modestly settled near the capital and its fu praises the virtue of the empire, Xie Lingyun's Shanju is constructed disregarding the capital and its fu declares own superiority over the capital in beauty and magnificence. Shanju fu is a successor of Jingdu fu 京都賦, but on the other hand an usurper of it. Shanju fu is noted in detail by author himself, and his self-notes which narrate the topography of his Shanju according to his walking is contrastive to the body text which describes picturesquely the beauty of it. We must pay attention to the fact that his notes are very effective to combine the beauty of his Shanju into the real topography of it, and so Shanju fu attains being the greatest masterpiece in Shanshui literature. In addition, Xie Lingyun's poems written on his Shanju, whose titles frequently mention author's geographical position, unify these elements: picturesque beauty and real topography. Xie Lingyun tried to realize his ideal world by making full use of his literary skill, and he succeeded in it
