The swimmer hydrodynamics performance was studied by the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The steady-state CFD simulations were performed by the application of k - omega turbulent model and volume of fluid method to obtain two-phase flow around a three- dimensional swimmer model when gliding near water surface and at different depths from the water surface. The simulations were conducted for four different swimming pool size, each with different depth, i.e., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 m for three different velocities, i.e., 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 m/s, with swimmer gliding at different depths with intervals of 0.25 m, each starting from the water surface, respectively.

  • Islamic Domes of Crossed-Arches: Origin, Geometry and Structural Behavior
    Islamic domes of crossed-arches: Origin, geometry and structural behavior P. Fuentes and S. Huerta Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain ABSTRACT: Crossed-arch domes are one of the earliest types of ribbed vaults. In them the ribs are intertwined forming polygons. The earliest known vaults of this type are found in the Great Mosque of Córdoba in Spain built in the mid 10th century, though the type appeared later in places as far as Armenia or Persia. This has generated a debate on their possible origin; a historical outline is given and the different hypotheses are discussed. Geometry is a fundamental part and the different patterns are examined. Though geometry has been thoroughly studied in Hispanic-Muslim decoration, the geometry of domes has very rarely been considered. The geometrical patterns in plan will be examined and afterwards, the geometric problems of passing from the plan to the three-dimensional space will be considered. Finally, a discussion about the possible structural behaviour of these domes is sketched. Crossed-arch domes are a singular type of ribbed vaults. Their characteristic feature is that the ribs that form the vault are intertwined, forming polygons or stars, leaving an empty space in the centre. The fact that the earliest known vaults of this type are found in the Great Mosque of Córdoba, built in the mid 10th century, has generated a debate on their possible origin. The thesis that appears to have most support is that of the eastern origin. This article describes the different hypothesis, to then proceed with a discussion of the geometry.

  • City of Glendale Window Replacement Information and Submittal Requirements General Information • Do Not Buy Or Install Any Windows Before You Get a Permit!
    City of Glendale Window Replacement Information and Submittal Requirements General Information • Do not buy or install any windows before you get a permit! • A building permit is required for all window replacements in Glendale at all types of buildings (residential, commercial, etc.). • Windows installed without a permit may need to be removed and replaced with appropriate windows. In addition, fees are doubled for work performed without permit. • The design of the windows you propose will be reviewed by Planning Division staff as part of the permit process This design review applies only to window openings that are visible from the street - usually just the front of the building and the visible parts of the sides. • Window replacements that are not visible still require a building permit. • For houses, apartments, and condominiums, staff uses the Draft Design Guidelines for Residential Window Replacement. Proposals that meet the Guidelines can be approved by staff “over the counter.” Any proposal that cannot be modified to meet the Draft Guidelines must be considered by the Design Review Board. Non-residential buildings are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. • Find the Draft Guidelines at: http://www.glendaleca.gov/planning/CounterForms/WindowReplacement/DraftWindowReplacementGuidelines.pdf • These guidelines do not apply to properties listed on the Glendale Register or located in designated historic districts - contact the Historic Preservation Planner at (818) 548-2140 for more information. • New windows must also meet specific energy efficiency guidelines (see page 3). Submittal Requirements • To get a building permit to replace windows, come to the Glendale Permit Services Center at the Glendale Municipal Services Building - 633 E.
