Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of subsonic (Mach number~$<1$) turbulence are crucial to our understanding of several processes including oceanic and atmospheric flows, the amplification of magnetic fields in the early universe,…
Approximate Deconvolution (AD) has emerged as a promising closure for Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) in complex multi-physics flows, where the conventional pure Dynamic Eddy-Viscosity (DEV) models experience issues. In this research, we…
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of turbulent non-Newtonian flows involves two additional closures, namely the Non-Newtonian SubGrid-Scale (NNSGS) stress tensor and filtered viscosity. Here, dynamic closures are proposed for NNSGS, eliminating…
Inspired by the spontaneous behaviour observed in filamentous layers -- where the balance between flow-induced drag and structural elasticity dictates the filaments' equilibrium streamlined posture -- we perform a series of large-eddy…
Underground hydrogen storage in saline aquifers is a potential solution for seasonal renewable energy storage. Among potential storage sites, facilities used for underground natural gas storage have advantages, including well-characterized…
This paper proposes a diffuse-interface model for simulating gas-liquid-solid multiphase flows involving solid-liquid phase change, solute transport, and the Marangoni effect. In this model, a phase-field method is employed to capture the…
Bacteria living on surfaces are often confined to droplets. When these droplets evaporate, the motion of the liquid-air interface and the associated internal capillary flow confine the bacteria. Here we study how \emph{E. coli} bacteria…
In hypersonic boundary-layer flows over blunt bodies, laminar-turbulent transition exhibits two distinct regimes: for small nose radii, increased bluntness delays transition; beyond a critical radius, further increasing bluntness reverses…
Three-dimensional unsteady numerical simulations are performed to investigate the effects of blowing ratio $C_B$ ($0.85 < \overline{U}_j/U_\infty < 1.7$), stroke ratio $L^+$ ($10.6 < \overline{U}_j /(fd) < 21.3$), and boundary-layer height…
A physics-based methodology for the determination of the localization function for the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) is proposed. The spatial features of such function evolve dynamically over time according to the relevant instantaneous…
A unified Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulation framework for coronary stent implantation is developed, which unifies weakly compressible hemodynamics, Neo-Hookean solids, and stent-artery contacts, based on a multi-resolution…
This paper proposes a novel consistent {\delta}+- Updated Lagrangian Particle Hydrodynamics (ULPH) model. Although the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) model has gained recognized achievements, it is afflicted by excessive numerical…
The Comments are devoted to the recently published paper 'Modelling and nonclassical symmetry analysis of a complex porous media flow in a dilating channel' (Physica D. 481 (2025) 134834), in which a model describing an unsteady…
We introduce CFDagent, a zero-shot, multi-agent system that enables fully autonomous computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations from natural language prompts. CFDagent integrates three specialized LLM-driven agents: (i) the…
Dynamic wetting poses a well-known challenge in classical sharp-interface formulation as the no-slip wall condition leads to a contact line singularity that is typically regularized with a Navier boundary condition, often requiring…
For high-fidelity predictions of turbulent flows in complex practical engineering problems, the Wall-Modeled (WM) Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) has aroused great interest. In the present study, we prove that the conventional Wall-Stress…
In the present article, novel Coarse-Graining (CG) algorithms for the Eulerian-Lagrangian (EL) simulation of particle-laden flows are proposed. These include different variants of Reproducing Kernel Particle Methods (RKPM) and an extended…
A scale-resolving simulation methodology that includes stochastic energy backscatter is incorporated into a proprietary block-structured compressible flow solver. Particular attention is devoted to the discretisation of the convective terms…
The values of liquid odd-viscosity coefficients remain largely unknown, with only a single experimental measurement reported to date [Nature Physics 15, 1188 (2019)]. In this work, inspired by the well-known consequences of dispersion…
Active flow control of compressible transonic shock-boundary layer interactions over a two-dimensional RAE2822 airfoil at Re = 50,000 is investigated using deep reinforcement learning (DRL). The flow field exhibits highly unsteady dynamics,…
