The axial compression behavior of nine self-compacting concrete columns confined with CFRP-PVC spirals was studied. Three parameters of spiral reinforcement spacing, spiral reinforcement diameter and height diameter ratio were studied. The test results show that the CFRP strip and PVC tube are destroyed first, and the spiral reinforcement and longitudinal reinforcement yield. The results show that with the increase of spiral reinforcement spacing, the peak bearing capacity decreases, but the ductility increases; with the increase of spiral reinforcement diameter, the peak bearing capacity increases, but has little effect on ductility, and the specimen with the ratio of height to diameter of 7.5 has the best mechanical properties. According to the reasonable constitutive relation of material, the finite element model of axial compression is established. Based on the verified finite element model, the stress mechanism is revealed. Finally, the composite constraint model and bearing capacity calculation method are proposed.

Some authors have concluded that spiral structures and shocks do not develop if an adiabatic index $\gamma$ > 1.16 is adopted in accretion disc modelling, whilst others have claimed that they obtained well defined spirals and shocks adopting a $\gamma$ = 1.2 and a $M_2/ M_1$ = 1 stellar mass ratio. In our opinion, it should be possible to develop spiral structures for low compressibility gas accretion discs if the primary component is a black hole. We considered a primary black hole of 8M0 and a small secondary component of 0.5M$\bigodot$ to favour spiral structures formations and possible spiral shocks via gas compression due to a strong gravitational attraction. We performed two 3D SPH simulations and two 2D SPH simulations and characterized a low compressibility model and a high compressibility model for each couple of simulations. 2D models reveal spiral structures existence. Moreover, spiral shocks are also evident in high compressibility 2D model at the outer disc edge. We believe that we could develop even well defined spiral shocks considering a more massive primary component.

This paper is concerned with the pattern formation of a diffusive predator-prey model with two time delays. Based upon an analysis of Hopf bifurcation, we demonstrate that time delays can induce spatial patterns under some conditions. Moreover, by use of a series of numerical simulations, we show that the type of spatial patterns is the spiral wave. Finally, we demonstrate that the spiral wave is asymptotically stable.

Generally, spiral test has been used for evaluating course-keeping quality of a ship. But, there are many difficult problems in performing spiral test and reversed spiral test. Therefore, we propose zig-zag test instead of spiral test for evaluating curse-keeping quality of a ship. In this paper, K-T maneuvering response model is applied to the spiral curves which are systematically produced to calculate Zig-zag maneuver. Then, 1st overshoot angle and 2nd overshoot angle are plotted. And the relations between overshoot angles and band widths of spiral curve are discussed.

In order to predict the behavior of column confined with spirals, the accurate estimation of confining stress by spiral is very important, Thus a number of models have been proposed for calculating the confining stress by spiral. However, in these equations, it was not considered the effects of the difference of mechanical characteristics related to the application of high strength concrete and spiral in structures. In this study, a model equation for calculation of the confining stress by spiral was proposed based on the test results investigated here. The proposed equation included the effects of concrete strength, spacing and yield strength of spirals

Modified equivalent lumped element model for square spiral inductors have been derived. This model shows more accurate analysis performance than conventional models, and gives reliable design parameters. And this model is made through comparison among distributed multiple coupled line, numerical analysis and experimental data.

Spiral jet is characterized by a wide region of the free vortex flow with a steep axial velocity gradient, while swirl jet is largely governed by the forced vortex flow and has a very low axial velocity at the jet axis. However, detailed generation mechanism of spiral flow components is not well understood, although the spiral jet is extensively applied in a variety of industrial field. In general, it is known that spiral jet is generated by the radial flow injection through an annular slit which is installed at the inlet of a conical convergent nozzle. The present study describes a computational work to investigate the effects of annular slit on the spiral jet. In the present computation, a finite volume scheme is used to solve three dimensional Naver-Stokes equations with RNG ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model. The annular slit width and the pressure ratio of the spiral jet are varied to obtain different spiral flows inside the conical convergent nozzle. The present computational results are compared with the previous experimental data. The results obtained obviously show that the annular slit width and the pressure ratio of the spiral jet strongly influence the characteristics of the spiral jets, such as tangential and axial velocities.

Automated parking systems, which automatically park and retrieve vehicles, have been steadily replacing conventional parking systems. The spiral parking system is a type of automated parking systems that has cylindrical parking tower. We develop an economic design model of spiral parking system based on a recursive optimization and simulation procedure in which the dynamic nature of the parking system can be integrated into the mathematical programming model. The optimal values of design parameters are found that gives the minimum total cost while complying with the desired performance of the system.

Centrifugal pump consists of a axis, a impeller and a spiral casing. The impeller is the most important component in centrifugal pump. But to minimize flow loss in discharge passage including spiral casing, the shape of spiral casing is very important also. So, to investigate the effect of shape of the spiral casing on performance curve of pump, the characteristics of spiral casing were studied through numerical analysis for centrifugal pump used on industry field. From the results the rectangular model was showed more loss than the others because of asymmetric flow field.

In this paper, a new high-frequency equivalent circuit model of printed spiral coils (PSCs) for radio-frequency interference (RFI) measurement has been proposed. To achieve high-frequency modeling, the proposed model consists of distributed components designed based on the design parameters of the PSCs. In addition, an analytic model for PSCs based on T-pi conversion has been proposed. To investigate the feasibility of the proposed model for RFI measurement, the transfer function between a microstrip line and a PSC has been extracted by combining the proposed model and mutual inductance. The self-impedances of the proposed model and the transfer function have been successfully validated using three-dimensional field simulation and measurements, revealing noticeable correlations up to a frequency of 6 GHz. The proposed model can be employed for high-frequency probe design and RFI noise estimation in the gigahertz range wireless communication bands.
