We derive an exact solution for Stokes flow in an in a channel with permeable walls. We assume that at the channel walls, the normal component of the fluid velocity is described by Darcy's law and the tangential component of the fluid…
In this note we introduce a mixed dimensional Stokes-Darcy coupling where a $d$ dimensional Stokes' flow is coupled to a Darcy model on the $d-1$ dimensional boundary of the domain. The porous layer introduces tangential creeping flow along…
We deal with the rigorous homogenization and dimension reduction of flow and transport problems posed in thin $\varepsilon$-periodic perforated layers with thickness of order $\varepsilon^{\alpha}$ with $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and therefore the…
We study the fluid flow through disordered porous media by numerically solving the complete set of the Navier-Stokes equations in a two dimensional lattice with a spatially random distribution of solid obstacles (plaquettes). We simulate…
We consider the homogenisation of a coupled Stokes flow and advection-reaction-diffusion problem in a perforated domain with an evolving microstructure of size $\varepsilon$. Reactions at the boundaries of the microscopic interfaces lead to…
The goal of this work is to investigate particle motions beneath unidirectional, deep-water waves up to the third-order in nonlinearity. A particular focus is on the approximation known as Stokes drift, and how it relates to the particle…
A new approximation to the Stokes drift velocity profile based on the exact solution for the Phillips spectrum is explored. The profile is compared with the monochromatic profile and the recently proposed exponential integral profile.…
We derive a homogenized macroscopic model for fluid flows over ordered homogeneous porous surfaces. The unconfined free-flow is described by the Navier-Stokes equation, and the Darcy equation governs the seepage flow within the porous…
In Stokes flow, Purcell's scallop theorem forbids objects with time-reversible (reciprocal) swimming strokes from moving. In the presence of inertia, this restriction is eased and reciprocally deforming bodies can swim. A number of recent…
We consider both the effect of particle inertia on stochastic Stokes' drift, and also a related process which could be considered as a crude model of stochastic Stokes' drift driven by an eddy diffusivity. In the latter, the stochastic…
The detailed mathematical study of the recent paper by Sajjadi, Hunt and Drullion (2014) is pre- sented. The mathematical developement considered by them, for unsteady growing monochro- matic waves is also extended to Stokes waves. The…
Stokes drift has been as central to the history of wave theory as it has been distressingly absent from experiment. Neither wave tanks nor experiments in open bodies detect this without nearly canceling "eulerian flows." Acoustic waves have…
The paper presents a workflow for fast pore-scale simulation of single-phase flow in tight reservoirs typically characterized by low, multiscale porosity. Multiscale porosity implies that the computational domain contains porous voxels…
Although the stability properties of the wake past impervious bluff bodies have been widely examined in the literature, similar analyses regarding the flow around and through porous ones are still lacking. In this work, the effect of the…
Three different porous substrates (with different pore sizes, s, and permeabilities, K) are used to examine their effect on the structure of boundary layer flow over them. The flow is characterised with single-point hot-wire measurements as…

In this study, a new set of fifth-order Stokes wave solutions, incorporating the effects of a linear shear current, is derived by utilizing the perturbation method originally proposed for pure waves that was recently published. The present…
The estimation of the permeability of porous media to fluids is of fundamental importance in fields as diverse as oil and gas industry, agriculture, hydrology and medicine. Despite more than 150 years since the publication of Darcy's linear…
Periodic water waves generate Stokes drift as manifest from the orbits of Lagrangian particles not fully closing. Stokes drift can contribute to the transport of floating marine litter, including plastic. Previously, marine litter objects…
A linear defect, viz. an elastic string, diffusing on a planar substrate traversed by a travelling wave experiences a drag known as Stokes' drift. In the limit of an infinitely long string, such a mechanism is shown to be characterized by a…
