Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is the de facto standard for modeling business processes on a conceptual level. However, BPMN lacks a formal semantics and many of its features need to be further interpret, Consequently that hindersBPMN as a standard to statically check the semantic correctness of models. YAWL (Yet Another Workflow Language) allows the specification of executable workflow models. A transformation between these two languages enables the integration of different levels of abstraction in process modeling. This paper discusses how to transform BPMN diagrams to YAWL nets. The benefits of the transformation are threefold. Firstly, it clarifies the semantics of BPMN via a mapping to YAWL. Secondly, the deployment of BPMN business process models is simplified. Thirdly, BPMN models can be analyzed with YAWL verification tools.
A 3-D model of pelton turbine bucket was built to investigate the motion characteristics of sediment particles in pelton turbines and the erosion caused by the movement. With the assistance of fluid analysis software FLUENT, A continuous phase turbulence model was estimated by the Euler equation which achieved convergence and the selected coupled calculation for solid-liquid two-phase flow with DPM model was built. It can be draw from the numerical analysis that, with the same size and sediment concentration, the inner bucket wall would suffer from the greater erosion by the relatively greater flow velocity; under the same condition of flow velocity and sediment concentration, the more serious erosion was caused by the bigger sized sediments; and the greater sediment concentration led to greater erosion, given the same flow velocity and sediment size. Based on the study, it showed that the erosion of inner wall of buckets was mainly affected by sediment size and concentration, as well as flow velocity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
