A discrete artificial boundary condition on a given segmental artificial boundary is designed by the method of lines. Then the original problem is reduced to a boundary value problem of Navier-Stokes equations on a bounded domain. The numerical examples show that this artificial boundary condition is very effective and more accurate than Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions used in engineering literature.展开更多

In the UK, the National Health Service(NHS) provides free and high quality healthcare service for all residents. Smart hospital environment is able to support NHS and provide more convenience. Patient flow scheduling is a crucial section in a smart hospital environment. Smart hospital environment aims to provide a smart environment in the hospital to facilitate individual experience and improve the quality of healthcare service.First of all, this paper investigates a real world patient flow scenario of a hospital in the UK and models a general scheduling scheme based on the scenario using a compositional formal approach, i.e. performance evaluation process algebra(PEPA). This scheduling scheme uses an easy-implemented solution(the grouping scheme) to reduce the waiting queue in the hospital. Secondly, fluid flow analysis is used for the performance analysis by generating a set of ordinary differential equations(ODEs) in terms of the PEPA model.展开更多
