We present a computational framework for simulating filaments interacting with rigid bodies through contact. Filaments are challenging to simulate due to their codimensionality, i.e., they are one-dimensional structures embedded in…
Several progresses have been done very recently on models for the dynamics of one or more vortex filaments in three-dimensional fluids. In this article we survey the recent and previous results in this topic. We also present some new…
The colliding flows (CF) model is a well-supported mechanism for generating molecular clouds. However, to-date most CF simulations have focused on the formation of clouds in the normal-shock layer between head-on colliding flows. We…
We report on the filaments that develop self-consistently in a new numerical simulation of cloud formation by colliding flows. As in previous studies, the forming cloud begins to undergo gravitational collapse because it rapidly acquires a…
Wide-angle outflows, or winds, are associated with a broad range of astrophysical systems, including protostars, massive stars, X-ray binaries, tidal disruption events (TDEs), luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs), and starburst…

We show that hydrodynamic turbulent cloud simulations naturally produce large filaments made up of a network of smaller and coherent sub-filaments. Such simulations resemble observations of filaments and fibres in nearby molecular clouds.…
Colliding hypersonic flows play a decisive role in many astrophysical objects. In this paper, we look at the idealized model of a 2D plane parallel isothermal slab (CDL) and at symmetric settings, where both flows have equal parameters. We…
