A unique 3-D computer simulator is used to predict natural fracture network characteristics in the subsurface. The model is based on the numerical solution of rock deformation processes coupled to the myriad of other basin reaction, transport and mechanical (RTM) processes. The model integrates seismic, well log and surface geological data to arrive at a quantitative picture of the distribution of fractures, stress, petroleum and porosity, grain size and other textural information.

Design Studies of Axial Vircator for High Power Microwave Generation
KÜÇÜK, İBRAHİM SEMİH; TİMUR, BÜŞRA; Tanc, Zafer; Demir, Şimşek (2017-09-27)
This paper presents design and simulation results of the cylindrical axial virtual cathode oscillator which is frequently used to damage electronic equipment by generating High Power Microwaves (HPM). Simulations are performed in MAGIC Tool Suite which uses FDTD-PIC algorithm to solve particle beam and field interactions. During the design procedure, AK Gap is changed from 5 mm to 12 mm and the scaling law is verified by simulation results. 9 mm AK gap values are selected as the most suitable one when outpu...

Dinescu, Cristian; Hirsch, Charles; Leonard, Benoît; Baran, Özgür Uğraş; Platschorre, Arie-Willem; Alessio, Rosario; Belluzzo, Damiano (2006-01-01)
The paper presents an integrated software tool for the hydroplaning simulation based on a weak coupled fluid-structure interaction model. The integrated modules are a flow solver FINE™/Hexa designed to solve the complex two-phase flow surrounding the tire numerically, based on unstructured hexahedral grids, the FEM solver MSC.Marc/MSC.Mentat which predicts the transients of the tire's structure, a coupling module for efficient and accurate transfer of the essential variables between the flow and FEM solvers...
Direction finding performance of antenna arrays on complex platforms using numerical electromagnetic simulation tools
Özeç, Mustafa Onur; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
An important step for the design of direction finding systems is the performance evaluation using numeric electromagnetic simulation tools. In this thesis, a method is presented for both modeling and simulation in a numeric electromagnetic simulation tool FEKO. The method relies on the data generated by FEKO. The data is then processed by correlative interferometer algorithm. This process is implemented in a MATLAB environment. Different types of antenna arrays including dipole, monopole and discone antenna...
Causal and Passive Parameterization of S-Parameters Using Neural Networks
Torun, Hakki Mert; Durgun, Ahmet Cemal; Aygun, Kemal; Swaminathan, Madhavan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-10-01)
Neural networks (NNs) are widely used to create parametric models of S-parameters for various components in electronic systems. The focus of deriving these models has so far been numerical error reduction between the NN-generated S-parameters and the data source. However, this is not sufficient when creating such NNs since it does not guarantee predicted S-parameters to be physically consistent, i.e., passive and causal, which restricts their use cases. This article, therefore, proposes a causality enforcem...
