Questions related to Geometry
I am performing a relax calculation in Quantum Espresso, and I encountered the following issue in the output file:
BFGS Geometry Optimization
Energy error = 0.0E+00
Gradient error = 0.0E+00
I am unsure why this error appears or how to resolve it. As I am still a beginner, I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions for troubleshooting this issue.
Thank you for your help!
CO2 Sequestrated Enhanced Oil Recovery
1. MMP refers to the pressure @ which the injected CO2 and the initial oil in place become multi-contact miscible and eventually, the displacement process becoming very efficient. And, if the injection pressure is too low, the displacement would still be 2-phase immiscible, and respective local displacement efficiency would be below the desired level. However, if the pressure is too high, then, although the displacement would become multi-contact miscible, and the oil recovery could reach the desired level, the cost of pressurizing the injected CO2 would remain to be larger than necessary, and thereby the concept of MMP becoming sensitive/critical.
Albeit its importance @ laboratory-scale, does the concept of ‘Minimum Miscibility Pressure’ (MMP) occur in a real field scenario?
2. At the field-scale, whether MME (Minimum Miscibility Enrichment representing the enrichment level of a particular or group of components in a multi-component CO2 injection for a given displacement pressure that causes the displacement to become multi-contact miscible – as a function of varying injected CO2 gas composition) deserve special attention, on top of following MMP (as a function of varying pressure to achieve miscibility)?
3. Co2 Sequestrated EOR: How easy would it remain to capture the field-scale details that involves the physical and chemical processes, where, the injected CO2 gets mixed with the original oil in place and eventually, co2 and oil forming a single mobile phase through repeated/multiple contacts (wherever the injected CO2 penetrates the formation) upon meeting favorable reservoir conditions?
4. Feasible to capture the field-scale details on the coupled effect of reservoir heterogeneity, viscous fingering and gravity segregation that essentially limit the fraction of the reservoir swept by the injected CO2?
5. What is the physical significance and field-scale relevance of representing the displacement process as a one-dimensional, two-phase and dispersion-free flow, where, the displacement becomes piston-like, and eventually, the oil recovery becoming 100% @ 1 pore volume of CO2 injected @ MMP?
6. Does the laboratory-scale determination of MMP for a miscible CO2 injection involve the trade-off between achieving high oil recovery and mitigating the production costs?
7. What is the physical significance of defining MMP as the minimum recovery level for a given co2 injection amount and the bend in the curve of recovery (point of maximum curvature that occur near the intersection of the extrapolated asymptotes of the low-recovery and high-recovery regions; and MMP referring to the pressure @ which the recovery curve levels off) plotted against pressure?
8. Although slim tube tests towards measuring MMP remains to be expensive and time-consuming, can rising bubble experiments be used to forecast MMP for condensing/vaporizing CO2 drives?
9. Is there a comprehensive MMP correlation that predicts MMPs systematically for arbitrary oil and gas mixtures (as MMP correlations remain to have different forms depending on whether they are for CO2, CH4, N2 or a gas mixture)?
10. How precise would be the extrapolation of the recovery curve to dispersion-free limit towards getting rid-off numerical dispersion effects (as numerical dispersion smears out the composition fronts, and thereby making the numerically calculated oil recovery to remain to be inaccurate for MMP calculations)?
11. Why does mixing-cell approach provide better forecast towards predicting MMPs for condensing/vaporizing gas drives than using the single-cell version?
12. To what extent a mathematical model describing the determination of MMP, conceptualized as a Riemann problem by assuming the complete absence of diffusive and dispersive effects – would reflect the real field-scale scenario?
In such cases, how precise would the estimation of MMPs deduced from the geometry of key tie lines and critical locus upon developing multiple-contact miscibility?

whenever I try to optimize the geometry of the molecule in anion it shows #2070 error
Dear colleagues,
I am currently working on a finite element model in Abaqus where I have defined a tie constraint between surfaces in my assembly. However, during the analysis, I receive the following warning:
"Failed to locate set 'ASSEMBLY_front web/stif tie surfaces'. Tie definition will not be written to the ODB."
What I've Checked:
- The set "ASSEMBLY_front web/stif tie surfaces" exists in the Assembly Module, and I can select it.
- When I edit the tie constraint, both the master and slave surfaces are clearly displayed, indicating that they are properly connected.
- The geometry and mesh in the tied region appear correct.
- The surfaces are aligned, and no apparent gaps exist between the regions.
Despite all of this, the warning persists, and the tie constraint does not seem to be applied during the analysis.
Questions:
- Has anyone encountered a similar issue where a surface is recognized in the GUI but not during analysis?
- Could this be related to how the set is defined or exported in the input file?
- Are there specific steps I can take to debug or resolve this issue?
I have already tried recreating the set and reassigning it in the tie constraint, but the warning remains. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance for your time and expertise.
Hello
I recently encountered a problem with the reciprocal of step size plot in Comsol Multiphysics. After a certain time (seconds) in a time-dependent solver, the plot oscillations will be removed and show a constant value until the end of the simulation. what causes this problem and how can I solve it?
My simulation has a 3D geometry and uses the segregated method to solve.
Hi,
I am currently working on a supersonic cavity problem. I want to plot p/p_infinity vs. t*V_infinity/D in Fluent for validating my baseline paper.
I have values of p_infinity = 101325 Pa; V_infinity & D with me.
I need help with plotting with these two parameters together.
Here is the baseline paper, on which I am working.
CO2 Leakage Risk [Fault Data]
1. Whether ‘Fault Data’ remain to be biased? & Are they get influenced by the concerned method, as Faults are studied @ different scales and by different methods?
2. Do we have enough Data Available from Fault Properties with reference to Fault Geometry?
3. Whether existing approaches – used for analyzing ‘Fault Seal Integrity’ remain to be sufficient enough, or do they have serious limitations?
4. If the aquifer has multiple zones and if it has numerous faults forming drainage segments with varying connectivity, how best could we monitor CO2 leakage in the long run (following CO2 injection)?
5. In the context of Seismic Fault Interpretation associated with 3D Structural Geo-modelling, although the development of ‘Automated Fault Interpretation’ tool based on AI & ML tend to reduce interpretation time, are we efficiently making use of this ‘saved time’ towards effective ‘Fault Analysis’ (geometry/truncations) & ‘Fault Integration’ to Stratigraphy (throw analysis/growth faulting/reactivation/fault seal evaluation)?

hello dear friends
well, i'm wprking with ANSYS Fluent to simulate a cylindrical geometry. I toke the half of the model as a computational domain for symmetry reasons. when i wanna plot the contours i'd like to have the the whole section of the cylinder where the half represent the isotherm lines and the other half shows the streamlines or liquid fraction for example (see the example bellow). Waiting for your advices and help. Thanks in advance.
Geometry optimization is very important but is it obligatory for PUBCHEM available compounds?
Hi folks,
I'm trying to use ORCA 5.0.1 to optimize the geometries and calculate frequencies for the excited states of a doublet anion. I've done this successfully with following input where N = 1, 3:
! B3LYP def2-SVP OPT FREQ PAL16
%tddft
IRoot N
end
* xyz -1 2

The same input gave me the following error for N = 4, 5:
Reading the CIS file ... Error (ORCA_CIS): invalid CI vector requested for CIS/TD-DFT gradient
[file orca_cis/cisdens.cpp, line 3565, Process 0]: Error (ORCA_CIS): failed to read the CIS vector
I've tried the following:
- Increasing my memory with maxcore = 3000 MB
- Adding "TRAH" keyword as per this thread: https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_to_get_rid_of_error_termination_in_SCF_gradient_in_ORCA_50,
- Using smaller basis set (e.g. 3-21G)
- Using simpler functional (e.g. HFS)
All of these gave the same error, unless I used a small basis set with HFS, which worked fine(i.e. the geometry optimization converged and I got all positive vibrational frequencies)
! HFS 3-21G OPT FREQ PAL16

Any suggestions for getting this to work for B3LYP / def2-SVP would be much appreciated!
I am working with lung geometry, where particles' behaviour is studied according to shape factors. I ran simulations for these particles keeping shape factor spherical while varying Stokes numbers, diameters, and volumetric flow rates. The initial solutions converged, but the DPM files were not generated. I only need to work on the rest of the shape factors and ultimately visualise results and simply get dpm files generated for the cases.
A helix has a) a base and top radii of 2.5 mm; b) the number of turns = 2; and c) the height of the helix spring = 2 mm. A point lies on the helix from which a line is to be drawn such that the line is tangential to the helix.
I'm trying to do geometry optimization of KAgO3 perovskite material in the material studio using CASTEP by setting cutoff energy 500 ev and various k points 888,999,101010,121212. but every time it fails showing the messages mentioned in the pictures. What is the possible reason and solution for successful optimization?
need an explanation from experts. Thank you.
#Material_studio #Geometry_optimization #Failure
I was running Material Studio for geometry optimization of a magnetic perovskite material. The value of cut off energy was kept fixed at 500 eV and the grid parameters of k value was 6 6 6 at the first try. The first run took about a few minutes to give the output successfully as I kept the spin polarization unchecked. But during second run, I checked the spin polarization option keeping all other parameters same as before and this time it took more than two hours to give the output successfully. However, during the third run with spin polarization on, I changed the k points grid parameters to 8 8 8 keeping all other parameters same as before. But this time it was a failure. I tried gain with k points 10 10 10, but that run also returned failure sticking at the same status. I tried with k points grid parameters 8 8 8 and 10 10 10 several times, each time it´s returning failure. I have attached the screenshots regarding the errors and status. It will be great if someone could help me understanding what may be the problem and what could be the solution.

I am struggling when I sketch something in Abaqus to delete line that is overlapped by other line, partially I solved this by turning off "geometry preselect" but is not great since I need to turn it on to have lines snapped with other lines during making a sketch in Abaqus.
I would like to measure the light intensity delivered to my solution inside the double-walled glass reactor, as shown in the attached picture. I am using a Thorlabs PM100A power meter, which measures light power in watts. The desired unit for light intensity is watts per square meter, but I am unsure how to measure this due to the curved geometry and the double-walled structure of the reactor. How can I accurately determine the light intensity in such a setup?
I analyzed the fracture of two types of rectangular and circular geometries in rubber materials. In the circular geometry, the fracture toughness (j-integral) and fracture process zone increase with the increase in size, and in the rectangular geometry, the j-integral and the fracture process zone decrease with the increase in the sample size. What could be the physical cause of this increase and decrease? How can it be justified by rubber microstructure?
In triangle ∆ABC (with ∠C = 90°), the angle CBA is equal to 2α.
A line AD is drawn to the leg BC at an angle α (∠BAD = α).
The length of the hypotenuse is 6, and the segment CD is equal to 3.
Find the measure of the angle α.
This problem can be solved using three methods: trigonometric, algebraic, and geometric. I suggest you find the geometric method of solution!

Dear colleagues!
I have encountered a weird bump in the BKG. Below at the picture you can see that the normal decay of air scattering intensity drops as usual, but then relatively sharply elevates average BKG level. If this would be everywhere this would not be a problem since everything would be on the same level, however such wave makes it very difficult to analyze peaks at lower angles. I tried various ways to organize optics to mitigate this issue and the best I could get is to shift the beginnigh of the bump towards 8 degrees instead of 6 via moving incident slit closer to the sample.
The manufacturer engineer said that this can be eliminated completely if you install parabolic mirror for parallel beam optics. However I personally think that this is BS, and such bump should not be there in the first instance.
Does anyone here have ideas of the origin of such bump and possibly how this could be removed.
The instrument is in reflection geometry, no monochromator, array detector, incident soller slit, knife edge is installed.
In triangle ABC, the median BM_2 intersects the bisector AL_1 at point P.
The side BC is divided by the base of the bisector AL_1 into segments CL_1=m and BL_1=n.
Determine the ratio of the segments AP to PL_1.

Best regards,
I'm working on optimizing the geometry of a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. My research focuses on adjusting design parameters such as blade angles, thickness, and rotor length to maximize pressure rise and hydraulic efficiency. I'm exploring various optimization techniques, including surrogate-based models and multi-objective algorithms, to achieve an optimal VAD design.
I have two questions:
- Can CFD simulations yield accurate results ?
- What is the best technique to use for the optimization ?

Hi everyone,
I am working on a curved domain in which a ship is situated in the middle (geometry is given below). In my understanding the general fluid flow is parallel to the x axis from inlet to outlet. How can I change the flow direction parallel to my domain boundary by using velocity and components?
And how can I avoid the possible reflections on the bends?
We assume that there is a physico-statistical meaning to the constant π other than circular geometry, but the iron guardians of the Schrödinger equation deny this.
The iron guardians of the Schrödinger equation are brainwashed and mistakenly believe that the Schrödinger equation is considered a unified field theory, implying that any equation not in it is false.
The strings of matrix B, the product of the Cairo techniques procedure, predict that the time dependence of the heat equation or the sound intensity equation is expressed as follows:
dU /dt =-U.Const.2π.Area/Volume . . . (1)
for any geometric object.
Note that equation 1 implies the following rule:
3D bodies of different shapes cannot have the same volume-to-surface ratio unless they have exactly the same volume and surface area [ResearchGate Q/A 6-6-2023].
Can we calculate the friction coefficient of an interface by only knowing the atom types and geometry forming it, without performing any experiment or simulations? We think yes, and discuss a possible route to get there in our recently published review - download it with this free access link
Our brain is not a “stand alone” information processing organ: it acts as a central part of our integral nervous
system with recurrent information exchange with the entire organism and the cosmos. In this study, the brain is
conceived to be embedded in a holographic structured field that interacts with resonant sensitive structures in the
various cell types in our body. In order to explain earlier reported ultra-rapid brain responses and effective
operation of the meta-stable neural system, a field-receptive mental workspace is proposed to be communicating
with the brain. Our integral nervous system is seen as a dedicated neural transmission and multi-cavity network
that, in a non-dual manner, interacts with the proposed supervening meta-cognitive domain. Among others, it is
integrating discrete patterns of eigen-frequencies of photonic/solitonic waves, thereby continuously updating a
time-symmetric global memory space of the individual. Its toroidal organization allows the coupling of
gravitational, dark energy, zero-point energy field (ZPE) as well as earth magnetic fields energies and transmits
wave information into brain tissue, that thereby is instrumental in high speed conscious and sub-conscious
information processing. We propose that the supposed field-receptive workspace, in a mutual interaction with the
whole nervous system, generates self-consciousness and is conceived as operating from a 4th spatial dimension
(hyper-sphere). Its functional structure is adequately defined by the geometry of the torus, that is envisioned as a
basic unit (operator) of space-time. The latter is instrumental in collecting the pattern of discrete soliton
frequencies that provided an algorithm for coherent life processes, as earlier identified by us. It is postulated that
consciousness in the entire universe arises through, scale invariant, nested toroidal coupling of various energy
fields, that may include quantum error correction. In the brain of the human species, this takes the form of the
proposed holographic workspace, that collects active information in a ”brain event horizon”, representing an
internal and fully integral model of the self. This brain-supervening workspace is equipped to convert integrated
coherent wave energies into attractor type/standing waves that guide the related cortical template to a higher
coordination of reflection and action as well as network synchronicity, as required for conscious states. In relation
to its scale-invariant global character, we find support for a universal information matrix, that was extensively
described earlier, as a supposed implicate order as well as in a spectrum of space-time theories in current physics.
The presence of a field-receptive resonant workspace, associated with, but not reducible to, our brain, may provide
an interpretation framework for widely reported, but poorly understood transpersonal conscious states and
algorithmic origin of life. It also points out the deep connection of mankind with the cosmos and our major
responsibility for the future of our planet.
I imported an 3D cad geometry in ansys. Now I want to create the mesh with solid45 element in workbench. How to proceed?
What is the methodology to measure the human perception towards the geometry and configuration of the built structures ?
I have a problem, in additive manufacturing (here specifically LPBF), if you make parts with different shapes through a fixed printing process, the parts will deform due to different geometry resulting in different stress concentrations. However, for the same shape of the part, the use of different printing process parameters to manufacture the part, will have an impact on its deformation? Such as different laser power, scanning rate, etc. (of course, if the part can be successfully manufactured)
Hi everyone,
I want to import an STL geometry (surface meshed with 2D meshes) into ANSYS APDL. After importing, I also want to mesh the structure with SOLID187 elements to convert it into a solid structure. Is there a way to do this?
APDL seems to have options only for solid CAD imports, and I couldn't find any useful documentation on this.
Thanks a lot!

[Dynamic IFT, dynamic wettability, interface stiffening]
If capillary pressure in a cylindrical pore of a particular radius
depends on contact angle and interfacial tension; and,
if surface tension and contact angles remain affected
by IFT, wettability, roughness, gas pressure, impurities and surfactants, then, how exactly to go about measuring ‘dynamic IFT’ (as against static IFT); and dynamic wettability (as against static wettability)?
Feasible to measure dynamic IFT & dynamic wettability
associated with a real reservoir system
having non-cylindrical pores,
where, capillary pressure and fluid invasion
reflect the irregular cross section of pores
as well as their converging-diverging longitudinal geometry?
In such cases, would it remain feasible to distinguish
between Haines jump
(abrupt changes in pressure and its associated drastic changes in fluid distribution)
and
Snap-off
(advancing non-wetting fluid becoming discontinuous, while going through the pore-throat, because, wetting fluid flowing along corners and crevices reaches the pore throat and pinches the non-wetting fluid)?
How exactly to capture the evolution of
time-dependent surfactant adsorption and interfacial concentration,
in response to changes in pore geometry?
Feasible to measure capillary pressure across a pore constriction,
where, capillary pressure remains to depend on surface tension, contact angle and the evolving pore geometry as the fluid interface traverses the pore constriction in advancing and receding phases
(given the fact that the measured capillary pressures
cannot be readily anticipated from static-bulk fluid measurements
as the transient surface tension
can be significantly lower
than in static experiments)?
Whether interface stiffening
in a relatively higher surfactant concentration solution
during receding fronts
gain more importance?
I would like to start a new topic on scale up of unit operations for inline rotor-stator emulsification process. What are the current best models for scaling up the emulsification time, when going from small to large batch size, considering the geometry of the rotor-stator to be the same?
The circle touches AB and AC the lateral sides of the isosceles triangle ABC at the vertices B and C (Fig. 1).
On the arc of this circle, which lies inside this triangle, there is a point K so that the distances from it to the sides AB and AC are equal to 24 cm and 6 cm appropriately (Fig. 2).
Find the distance from point K to side BC.
Hello everybody !
I am working on a medium size organic molecule (around 40 atoms) and I try to check the presence of a conical intersection between S1 and S0. I used DFT and TD-DFT to compute the PES of S0 and S1 in my molecule along different modes and motions but for now no conical intersection was identified.
Do you think it would be a possible and interesting approach to use TD-DFT/MD simulation to start from the S1 optimized geometry and apply temperature to check the evolution of the geometry in the S1 state of the molecule in time ? Will it go back to the S0 optimized geometry in the case of an easy accessible conical intersection ?
Thank you for any help you may provide and for your interesting comments about it.
The wave function of quantum mechanics at a fixed point in space-time is simply a set of complex numbers. How does the set of these numbers relate to the geometry of the universe?
Hello everyone
I wanna calculate the nusselt number in ansys fluent for a triple pipe geometry, and i'm not sure about the right way to do that.
I f someone know the correct steps to do.
Thanks in advance.
“According to general theory of relativity, gravitation is not a force but a property of spacetime geometry. A test particle and light move in response to the geometry of the spacetime.”[1] Einstein's interpretation of gravity is purely geometrical, where even a free point particle without any properties and any interactions, moves in a curved spacetime along geodesics, but which are generated by the energy tensor Tµν [2]. Why isn't gravity generated directly by Tµν, but must take a circuitous route and be generated by the geometry of spacetime Gµν‡?
Gµν=G*Tµν
This is Einstein's field equation, and the Einstein tensor Gµν describes the Space-Time Curvature. We know that in classical mechanics and quantum field theory, it is the Hamiltonian, Lagrangian quantities that determine motion. Motion is essentially generated by energy-momentum interactions. Why is it irrelevant to energy-momentum in GR? Einstein had always expected the unification of electromagnetic and gravitational forces to be geometrically realized [3]*. Is such an expectation an exclusion of energy-momentum interactions in motion? Can the ultimate unification of forces be independent of energy-momentum and manifest itself only in motion in pure spacetime? If not, one of these must be wrong.
--------------------------------------
Supplement: Gravity is still a force
Gravity appears to be a ‘spacetime gravity’, i.e., gravity caused by spacetime metric differences, the same as gravitational red shift and violet shift [1]. The current four-dimensional space-time ‘geodesic’ interpretation of gravity is to match the geometric appearance of Space-Time Curvature. Time and space are symmetrical, and geodesic motion is not initiated by the ‘arrow of time’ alone, but must be accompanied by equivalent spatial factors. Any interpretation that destroys the equivalence of space and time should be problematic.
[1] "What is Force, a Field? Where is the Force Field? How does it appear? Is the Force Field a Regulating Effect of the Energy-Momentum Field?"
-----------------------------
Notes
* "After his tremendous success in finding an explanation of gravitation in the geometry of space and time, it was natural that he should try to bring other forces along with gravitation into a “unified field theory” based on geometrical principles."
‡ If one thinks that it holds only at Tµν = 0, see the next question NO.37: Is there a contradiction in the Schwarzschild spacetime metric solution?

To date the presence of Dark Energy, has remained a mystery. This is solved on the basis of fundamental unit of energy, Planck's constant, from which space-time itself, the forces of nature including gravity, and all particle physics can be derived. This is achieved on the on the basis of the speed of light and classical geometry. In the first instance new research points to a definitive answer to the presence of space time and the value of Hubble's constant. Here we invite open access research and discussion to probe the mysteries and very nature of Dark Energy, and the origins of all the aspects of Nature including the laws of thermodynamics.
I am trying to model a quasi-static compression of a complex structurAl geometry. The experiment was done at 2 mm/min of loading. I am using ANSYS Explicit Dynamics. I’m also using Automatic Mass Scaling. It is not working. If anyone has similar experience, please help me find the appropriate settings or any suggestions is highly appreciated.
Dear Readers,
I am writing to request assistance in obtaining numeric or number format data related to turbulent flow in ducts, specifically focusing on square, rectangular, and other geometries. I require data for cases of steady, fully developed flow in the cross section of the duct, with a particular interest in cross-sectional details.
The data I am seeking should be presented in a format that includes the following parameters:
- Horizontal coordinate (x2)
- Vertical coordinate (x3)
- Flow properties: main velocity (U), secondary velocities (V and W), turbulent kinetic energy (K), turbulent viscosity, turbulence dissipation rate (e), turbulent stresses (shear and normal), pressure distribution in the cross section, boundary shear stress, and flow parameters (longitudinal pressure gradients, duct geometry dimensions, friction factor, fluid density and viscosity, wall roughness conditions, etc.).
I have come across several articles that contain relevant information, but the data is presented in graphical form, making it challenging to extract the specific numeric values. Therefore, I kindly request your assistance in providing the data in numeric or number format, as described above.

Additionally, I am interested in numeric data, such as numerical predictions and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) data, from studies conducted by Naot and Rodi (1982) and Demuren and Rodi (1984):
- Naot, D.; Rodi, W. 1982. "Calculation of secondary currents in channel flow." ASCE J. Hydraul. Div. 108, 948–968.
- Demuren, A.O.; Rodi, W. 1984. "Calculation of turbulence driven secondary motion in noncircular ducts." J. Fluid Mech. 140, 189–222.
Furthermore, if any numeric data is available for other flow types, such as flow in cavities, flow at backward-facing steps, flow around cylinders, and flow around square rods, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and contributions toward fulfilling this request. Your support will significantly contribute to the advancement of turbulent flow research.
Sincerely and best Regards,
Imagine an enormous cylinder in a flat landscape. You are standing along the inner edge. How big would the cylinder need to be for you to not see the curvature? I.e., Instead think you are standing along a completely flat wall. Consider an average person with average eyesight. Would happily accept both the motivation, answer and calculation.
Bonus question: If you had any particular practical tools to your disposal to improve your estimate of the curvature in this scenario, what would they be and how would they help?
