The movement of subaqueous sediment in laminar shearing flow is numerically investigated by the coupled lattice Boltzmann and discrete element methods. First, the numerical method is validated by comparing the phase diagram proposed by…
This thesis investigates the jet-medium interactions in a Quark-Gluon Plasma using a hydrodynamical model. It deals with the creation of Mach cones which are supposed to exhibit a characteristic structure in the measured angular particle…
Our work is motivated by the analysis of ash plume dynamics, arising in the study of volcanic eruptions. Such phenomena are characterized by large Reynolds number (exceeding $10^7$) and a large number of polydispersed particles~[1]. Thus,…
A quantitative analysis illustrating salient features of a Laminar Separation Bubble (LSB), its transition forming coherent structures, and associated heat transfer has been performed on a flat plate for varying free stream turbulence (fst)…
During hydraulic fracturing, the injection of a pressurized fluid in a brittle elastic medium leads to the formation and growth of fluid-filled fractures. A disc-like or penny-shaped fracture grows radially from a point source during the…
We study diamagnetically levitated foams with widely different liquid fractions. Due to the levitation, drainage is effectively suppressed and the dynamics is driven by the coarsening of the foam bubbles. For dry foams, the bubble size…
Successful models of the low redshift circumgalactic medium (CGM) must account for (1) a large amount of gas, (2) relatively slow gas velocities, (3) a high degree of metal enrichment, (4) the similar absorption properties around both…
Context: In protoplanetary discs, micron-sized dust grows to form millimetre- to centimetre-sized pebbles but encounters several barriers during its evolution. Collisional fragmentation and radial drift impede further dust growth to…
We propose a model to describe the quasistatic shearing of dry granular materials, which notably captures the differences in velocity profiles recently observed in 2 and 3-D Couette flow experiments. In our scheme, the steady-state flow is…
In a companion paper (Paper I) we presented a Co-Evolution Model (CEM) in which to consider the evolution of feedback bubbles driven by massive stars through both stellar winds and ionizing radiation, outlining when either of these effects…
The energetically driven Ehrlich-Schwoebel (ES) barrier had been generally accepted as the primary cause of the growth instability in the form of quasi-regular mound-like structures observed on the surface of thin film grown via molecular…
The streaming instability is a leading mechanism for concentrating solids and initiating planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks. Although numerous studies have explored its linear growth, nonlinear evolution, and implications for…
Development of algorithms and growth of computational resources in the past decades have enabled simulations of sediment transport processes with unprecedented fidelities. The Computational Fluid Dynamics--Discrete Element Method (CFD--DEM)…
Deformable bubbles propagated by the flow of a viscous liquid in a planar Hele-Shaw channel of uniform depth tend to travel steadily along the channel's streamwise axis and pairs of neighbouring bubbles will either separate or coalesce…
This work presents a numerical study of a diffusion flame in a reacting, two-dimensional, turbulent, viscous, multi-component, compressible mixing layer subject to a large favorable streamwise pressure gradient. The boundary-layer equations…
By means of digital image correlation, we experimentally characterize the deformation of a dry granular medium confined inside a Hele-Shaw cell due to air injection at a constant overpressure high enough to deform it (from 50 to 250 kPa).…
A small, spherical bubble of high internal pressure is inserted into water at constant ambient pressure as a model of a laser-induced bubble. Its subsequent dynamics near a flat solid boundary is studied in dependence on the distance of the…
A novel theoretical model for bubble dynamics is established that simultaneously accounts for the liquid compressibility, phase transition, oscillation, migration, ambient flow field, etc. The bubble dynamics equations are presented in a…
We investigate the kinetics of bubble coarsening in a single component Lennard-Jones fluid using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. A homogeneous high-temperature system is quenched below the critical temperature to induce the…
When a stationary bubble and a stationary droplet immersed in a liquid pool are brought in contact with each other, they form a bubble-droplet aggregate. Its equilibrium morphology and stability largely depend on the combination of…
