    Notes: A finite element method for the analysis of two-layer density flows is presented in this paper. The standard Galerkin method based on linear interpolation functions is used to yield discrete spatial variables. For numerical integration in time, an explicit two-step selective lumping method is used. Here it is applied to a flow analysis of Ishikari Bay, at the mouth of Ishikari River. This case demonstrates a procedure that yields a numerically stable solution.

    Notes: The aim of this paper is to present the finite element method and its application to quasi-steady periodic two-layer tidal flow in estuaries and coastal seas. Formulating the weighted residual equations, using quadratic polynomials for velocity and linear polynomials for water elevation as interpolation functions and employing the periodic Galerkin method, the nonlinear simultaneous equations can be derived. The present method is used for the simulation analysis of the Niigata Port redevelopment planning.

    Notes: A finite element method for solving shallow water flow problems is presented. The standard Galerkin method is employed for spatial discretization. The numerical integration scheme for the time variation is the explicit two step scheme, which was originated by the authors and their co-workers. However, the original scheme has been improved to remove the erroneous artifical damping effect. Since the improved scheme employs a combination of lumped and unlumped coefficients, the scheme is referred to as a selective lumping scheme. Stability conditions and accuracy are investigated by considering several numerical examples. The method has been applied to the tidal flow in Osaka Bay and Yatsushiro Bay.

    Notes: This paper presents the finite element method for the analysis of unsteady viscous flow of fluid at high Reynolds numbers. The method is based on the explicit numerical integration scheme in time and uses three node triangular finite elements. For the convenience of the formulation, slight compressibility is considered. For the explicit scheme, the selective lumping two step scheme has been successfully employed. Vortex shedding behind a cylinder has been computed and compared with the conventional experimental results. The results agree favourably when both schemes are compared.

    Notes: Numerical methods have been applied to theoretical studies of instability and transition to turbulence. In this study an analysis of the linear stability of incompressible flow is undertaken. By means of the finite element method the two-dimensional base flow is computed numerically over a range of Reynolds numbers and is perturbed with three-dimensional disturbances. The partial differential equations governing the evolution of perturbation are obtained from the non-linear Navier-Stokes equations with a slight compressibility by using linear stability and normal mode analysis. In terms of the finite element discretization a non-singular generalized eigenproblem is formulated from these equations whose solution gives the dispersion relation between complex growth rate and wave number. This study presents stability curves to identify the critical Reynolds number and critical wavelength of the neutral mode and discusses the mechanism of instability. The stability of lid-driven cavity flow is examined. Taylor-Göertler-like vortices in the cavity are obtained by means of reconstruction of three-dimensional flows. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The results of a research project to verify the newly improved multiple- level model for 3D tidal current analysis in Tokyo Bay are presented. The improved multiple-level model includes additional effects due to Coriolis force, river inflows and wind shear stresses. Furthermore, a new numerical treatment of the open boundary condition was applied which effectively eliminated the spurious reflective waves often generated by various numerical methods simulating free surface flows. The mean (time-averaged or residual) and tidal currents in Tokyo Bay were simulated as examples to demonstrate the validity and capability of the newly improved multiple-level model. A series of numerical experiments was conducted to carefully examine the tidal circulations affected by the forcing factors of Coriolis force, river inflows and wind shears, both individually and combined. The numerical results demonstrated that the effects of each forcing term are physically reasonable, with the wind shear effect being the most significant and the case including all forcing terms being in best overall agreement with the field data collected in Tokyo Bay by the Ministry of Transportation. This study has contributed not only to the verification of the newly improved multiple-level model but also to the enhancement of the accuracy of numerical simulations of three-dimensional flow in coastal waters by this model.

    Notes: A finite element method for the analysis of nearshore current, which is one of the principal currents in coastal seas, is presented in this paper. Because the nearshore current is induced by the variable distribution of the surface waves, it is necessary to analyse two main characteristics of the wave, i.e. direction and height. The current can be computed using the resulting wave characteristics. The present method makes it possible to employ procedures for which the same methods of solution are applicable for all basic equations of wave direction, height and current flow. The linear interpolation function is used for the discretization of spatial variables and a selective lumping two step explicit scheme is employed for the numerical integration in time. The numerical solutions obtained are compared with analytical, experimental and observed ones. From these comparative studies, it is concluded that the present finite element method provide a useful tool for the analysis of nearshore current.

    Notes: To avoid the use of pesticides on putting greens of golf courses, a temperature regulator system is strongly recommended nowadays in Japan. To maintain grass on the putting green without pesticide, the temperature of the ground should be controlled. This system consists of a cooling machine and buried pipes in the ground. The temperature of the water in the pipes cannot be regulated. In this paper, both identification and control problems are presented by the minimization technique and applied to a practical problem. To establish the system, it is important to obtain accurate parameters which are included in the governing equation. These parameters can be determined by parameter identification. The conjugate gradient method is used for the parameter identification procedure. The control problem aims to make the temperature at arbitrary points close to the objective temperature. The discrete-time dynamic programming is used for the control procedure.

    Notes: In this paper the vortex shedding around a heated/cooled circular cylinder is numerically simulated by solving the time-dependent Navier-Stokes and energy equations. A finite element method that is referred to as the three-step Taylor-Galerkin method is used to compute these equations. The attention of this study is directed to the investigation of the effect of buoyancy on the vortex street behind the cylinder at constant Reynolds number. The present paper shows the suppression or generation of the von Kármán vortex street behind the cylinder when the cylinder surface is heated or cooled respectively. The relationship between the temperature-induced buoyancy force and the vortex shedding is also discussed through several numerical examples.
