Lagrangian solution to the coupled oscillators enables mapping of the asymmetric, short-range potentials pertaining to the 0 H-0 bond. 

Using the MD derivative of the and the as input, Lagrangian solution has derived the force constant and bond energy for (H20)jv clusters of different sizes. Table 37.4 and Fig. 37.5 show the outcome. Numerically, the 0 H bond energy at smaller N values seemed not so reasonable because the MD artifacts that take longer-range interaction and estimate the interaction improperly. Nevertheless, the trend and origin are within expectation. 

We thus obtain a Lagrangean density, whieh is equivalent to Eq. (149) for all solutions of the Dirac equation, and has the structure of the nonrelativistic Lagrangian density, Eq. (140). Its variational derivations with respect to v / and v / lead to the solutions shown in Eq. (152), as well as to other solutions. 

As mentioned in Chapter 1, in general, the solution of the integral viscoelastic models should be based on Lagrangian frameworks. In certain types of flow... 

Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method. In the ALE technique the finite element mesh used in the simulation is moved, in each time step, according to a predetermined pattern. In this procedure the element and node numbers and nodal connectivity remain constant but the shape and/or position of the elements change from one time step to the next. Therefore the solution mesh appears to move with a velocity which is different from the flow velocity. Components of the mesh velocity are time derivatives of nodal coordinate displacements expressed in a two-dimensional Cartesian system as... 

Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) codes dynamically position the mesh to optimize some feature of the solution. An ALE code has tremendous flexibility. It can treat part of the mesh in a Lagrangian fashion (mesh velocity equation to particle velocity), part of the mesh in an Eulerian fashion (mesh velocity equal to zero), and part in an intermediate fashion (arbitrary mesh velocity). All these techniques can be applied to different parts of the mesh at the same time as shown in Fig. 9.18. In particular, an element can be Lagrangian until the element distortion exceeds some criteria when the nodes are repositioned to minimize the distortion.

The equation for S is recognized as a Hamilton-Jacobi equation for a mechanical action. The solution can be written in terms of a Lagrangian L, for the nuclear motions, introducing the path Q t, Qin,Q), starting initially at positions Qin and ending at Q at time t, and the corresponding generalized velocities Q. The result is...

Solution. Although the objective function of this problem is convex, the inequality constraint does not define a convex feasible region as shown in Figure E8.4. The geometric interpretation is to find the points in the feasible region closest to (1, 0). The Lagrangian function for this problem is...

In the Lagrangian frame, droplet trajectories in the spray may be calculated using Thomas 2-D equations of motion for a sphere 5791 or the simplified forms)154 1561 The gas velocity distribution in the spray can be determined by either numerical modeling or direct experimental measurements. Using the uncoupled solution approach, many CFD software packages or Navier-Stokes solvers can be used to calculate the gas velocity distribution for various process parameters and atomizer geometries/configurations. On the other hand, somesimple expressions for the gas velocity distribution can be derived from... 

The PFR model ignores mixing between fluid elements at different axial locations. It can thus be rewritten in a Lagrangian framework by substituting a = Tpfrz, where a denotes the elapsed time (or age) that the fluid element has spent in the reactor. At the end of the PFR, all fluid elements have the same age, i.e., a = rpfr. Moreover, at every point in the PFR, the species concentrations are uniquely determined by the age of the fluid particles at that point through the solution to (1.2). 

The Ay are Lagrangian multipliers arising from the side conditions of Eq. (7) which maintain orbital orthonormality during the minimization process. Solution of Eq. (17) in conjunction with Eq. (7) determines simul-... 

Table 1 presents a summary of the solutions obtained in this section. Of primary interest at this point is comparison of the forms of the Lagrangian and Eulerian expressions, in particular the relationships between the eddy diffusivities and the plume dispersion variances. For the slender-plume cases, for example, the Lagrangian and Eulerian expressions are identical if...
