This paper proposes a novel autonomous underwater vehicle path planning algorithm in a cluttered underwater environment based on the heat method. The algorithm calculates the isotropic and anisotropic geodesic distances by adding the direction and magnitude of the currents to the heat method, which is named the anisotropy-based heat method. Taking account of the relevant influence of the environment on the cost functions, such as currents, obstacles and turn of the vehicle, an efficient collision-free and energy-optimized path solution can be obtained. Simulation results show that the anisotropy-based heat method is able to find a good trajectory in both static and dynamic clutter fields (including uncertain obstacles and changing currents). Compared with the fast marching (FM) algorithm, the anisotropy-based heat method is not only robust, flexible, and simple to implement, but it also greatly saves time consumption and memory footprint in a time-variant environment. Finally, the evaluation criteria of paths are proposed in terms of length, arrival time, energy consumption, and smoothness.

The aim of the present work is to verify a numerical implementation of a binary fluid, heat conduction dominated solidification model with a novel semi-analytical solution to the heat diffusion equation. The semi-analytical solution put forward by Chakaraborty and Dutta (2002) is extended by taking into account variable in the mushy region solid/liquid mixture heat conduction coefficient. Subsequently, the range in which the extended semi-analytical solution can be used to verify numerical solutions is investigated and determined. It has been found that linearization introduced to analytically integrate the heat diffusion equation impairs its ability to predict solidus and liquidus line positions whenever the magnitude of latent heat of fusion exceeds a certain value.

Composites structures are widely using in varied fields of industry, where it has to take into account changes of temperature or it is possibility of fire hazards. Heat transfer and fire conditions in composites are very often analysis issues nowadays. A large amount of research in area of modelling heat transfer and fire loading of composites has been performed for both experimental studies and modelling and simulation. The most common areas of analysis of thermal composite structures are: multiscale modelling of heat transfer, simultaneous fire and mechanical loading, fire involved failure and temperature distribution under fire and elevated temperature conditions. This paper presents analysis of heat transfer in composites with taking into account their shape and thickness. The models include a convection mode of heat transfer. The first composite plate is 10 cm wide by 10 cm tall with a thickness of 1 cm. The modified structure has also second part, smaller plate on top 5 cm wide by 5 cm in right corner. They made of glass/vinylester composite. The plates are heating in one, two and three directions. The results are shown in forms of contours of temperature distribution and thermal gradient. Comparison of results for the modelled structures shows differences in the shape and thickness of the analysed structure.
