Terra formation control or how to move mountainsijcga
The new Uplift Model of terrain generation is generalized here and provides new possibilities for terra
formation control unlike previous fractal terrain generation methods. With the Uplift Model fine-grained
editing is possible allowing the designer to move mountains and small hills to more suitable locations
creating gaps or valleys or deep bays rather than only being able to accept the positions dictated by the
algorithm itself. Coupled with this is a compressed file storage format considerably smaller in size that the
traditional height field or height map storage requirements.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
1. 14 SEEP/W
Excess Pore-Water Pressure
SEEP/W can also be used to model the dissipation of excess pore-water pressure. A typical
case is the dissipation of pore-water pressure in an embankment after drawdown of a reservoir.
Consider the case in Figure 1.4. A steady-state condition may have been reached after some
time and then the reservoir is suddenly emptied. SEEP/W’s saturated/unsaturated formulation
makes it possible to analyze the dissipation of the excess pore-water pressure. Note the flow
out of the embankment in Figure 1.4.
The capability of modelling the dissipation of excess pore-water pressure also makes it possible to
perform consolidation analyses. This is discussed later in this chapter in the section entitled Product
Integration.
Figure 1.4 Dissipation of Excess Pore-Water Pressure in an Earth Dam After Reservoir
Drawdown
Transient Seepage
Another large class of problems that can be analyzed using SEEP/W is transient seepage. SEEP/W can
account for the drainage of water from soil pores, or water filling soil pores, and the changes in hydraulic
conductivity that occur in a transient seepage flow system. Examples of transient analyses are illustrated
in Figures 1.5 and 1.6. Figure 1.5 shows the migration of the wetting front through and earth dam after
reservoir filling while Figure 1.6 shows the changing position of the phreatic surface after reservoir
drawdown.

Figure 1.6 Movement of Phreatic Surface in an Earth Dam After Reservoir Drawdown
The SEEP/W capability of accommodating both saturated and unsaturated flow makes it a very powerful
tool for analyzing almost any kind of seepage problem you may encounter.
Features and Capabilities
User Interface
Problem Definition
CAD is an acronym for Computer Aided Drafting. GEO-SLOPE has implemented CAD-like
functionality in SEEP/W using the Microsoft Windows graphical user interface. This means that defining
your problem on the computer is just like drawing it on paper; the screen becomes your "page" and the
mouse becomes your "pen." Once your page size and engineering scale have been specified, the cursor
position is displayed on the screen in engineering coordinates. As you move the mouse, the cursor
position is updated. You can then "draw" your problem on the screen by moving and clicking the mouse.
The following are some of the model definition interface features:
· Display axes, snap to a grid, and zoom.
To facilitate drawing, x and y axes may be placed on the drawing for reference. Using the mouse, axes
may be selected, then moved, resized or deleted. For placing the mouse on precise coordinates, a
background grid may be specified. Using a "snap" option, the mouse coordinates will be set to exact
grid coordinates when the mouse cursor nears a grid point. To view a smaller portion of the drawing, it
is possible to zoom in by using the mouse to drag a rectangle around the area of interest. Zooming out
to a larger scale is also possible.
· Sketch graphics, text and import picture.
Graphics and text features are provided to aid in defining models and to enhance the output of results.
Graphics such as lines, circles and arcs, are useful for sketching the problem domain before defining a
finite element mesh. Text is useful for annotating the drawing to show information such as material
names and properties among other things. A dynamic text feature automatically updates the project
information text on the drawing whenever the project information is changed. This ensures that the
project information shown on the drawing always matches the project settings used in the model.
The import picture feature is useful for displaying graphics from other applications in your drawing.
For example, a cross-section drawing could be imported from a drafting application for use as a
background graphic while defining the problem domain. This feature can also be used to display things
like photographs or a company logo on the drawing. Pictures are imported as a Windows metafile
(WMF), an enhanced metafile (EMF), or a Windows bitmap (BMP).
Using the mouse, individual or groups of graphics and text objects may be selected, then moved,
resized or deleted.
3. 16 SEEP/W
· Graphical finite element mesh generation and editing.
After the problem has been sketched, the problem domain must be discretized into a finite element
mesh. To facilitate this, quadrilateral and/or triangular regions are drawn in the problem domain. Inside
each region, any number of finite elements can automatically be generated. Individual or groups of
nodes and elements may be moved or deleted using the mouse to select and drag these objects. The
figure below shows how a quadrilateral region is interactively meshed with quadrilateral elements.
· Graphical application of soil types and boundary conditions.
Each element in the mesh must be associated with a soil type. This can be accomplished using the
mouse to select individual or groups of elements to which a soil type will be assigned. Boundary
conditions can also be assigned to nodes and edges using the mouse. The figure below shows the
application of a fixed 0.3 m total head boundary condition being applied to node 10.
4. GEO-SLOPE Office 5 17
· Graphical and keyboard editing of functions.
SEEP/W makes extensive use of functions. For example, boundary conditions can be a function of
time, and hydraulic conductivity is a function of pore-water pressure. All these functions can be edited
graphically using the mouse and exact numerical values can be input using the keyboard. The figure
below shows a point on a conductivity function being moved using the mouse.
5. 18 SEEP/W
· Graphical flux section definition.
It is often of interest to compute seepage fluxes across some section of the problem domain. Multiple
flux sections can be drawn through the problem domain using the mouse.
· Graphical initial water table definition.
For transient analyses, initial conditions are required. The fastest way to specify initial conditions is to
draw the water table across the problem domain, which can be done using the mouse.
