Turbulent flows are strongly chaotic and unpredictable, with a Lyapunov exponent that increases with the Reynolds number. Here, we study the chaoticity of the Surface Quasi-geostrophic system, a two-dimensional model for geophysical flows…
We conduct a numerical study of the transient phenomenon in pipelines transporting plastic Bingham slurry flows, using a lowest-order finite element method (FEM). While most pipeline hammer studies focus on Newtonian fluids, the transient…
We present a consistent continuum framework and a variable-coefficient acoustofluidic solver to analyze acoustic streaming. A perturbation approach is used to split the compressible Navier-Stokes equations into two sub-systems: a…
Despite their widespread use, purely data-driven methods often suffer from overfitting, lack of physical consistency, and high data dependency, particularly when physical constraints are not incorporated. This study introduces a novel data…
The intrinsic high dimension of fluid dynamics is an inherent challenge to control of aerodynamic flows, and this is further complicated by a flow's nonlinear response to strong disturbances. Deep reinforcement learning, which takes…
We introduce an inexpensive experimental setup for analyzing free-surface water waves: a $1\,\mathrm{m}$-long tabletop flume made from perspex, driven by a variable-frequency piston wavemaker built from Lego. Using mobile-phone video…
The dynamical analysis of shear flows remains challenging, as turbulence generation and evolution are not fully understood. Here, a lesser-explored feature of incompressible shear flows-the absorbing zone-is investigated. This region in the…
Dimensional analysis provides a universal framework for reducing physical complexity and reveal inherent laws. However, its application to high-dimensional systems still generates redundant dimensionless parameters, making it challenging to…
We present a new theoretical model for the analytical prediction of the metal pad roll instability in idealised aluminium reduction cells consisting of two stably stratified liquid layers, which carry a vertical electric current and are…
As one of the major challenges for the conservative smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method, the zero-order consistency issue, although thought to be mitigated by the particle regularization scheme, such as the transport velocity…
Lagrangian acceleration has been investigated both experimentally and numerically in the past, and it has been shown to exhibit extreme fluctuations, which have been rationalized as events in which tracer particles get trapped into vortical…
Nonlinear reduced-order models (ROMs), represented by manifold learning (ML), can effectively improve the modeling accuracy of nonlinear flow fields with discontinuities. However, the inverse mapping from low-dimensional manifold…
Heat transfer in a fluid can be greatly enhanced by natural convection, giving rise to the nuanced relationship between the Nusselt number and Rayleigh number that has been a focus of modern fluid dynamics. Our work explores convection in…
Gaining a fundamental understanding of turbulent flows of dilute polymer solutions has been a challenging and outstanding problem for a long time. In this letter, we examine homogeneous, isotropic polymeric turbulence at large Reynolds and…
Turbulence plays a crucial role in multiphysics applications, including aerodynamics, fusion, and combustion. Accurately capturing turbulence's multiscale characteristics is essential for reliable predictions of multiphysics interactions,…
An asymptotic approach is employed to study the swimming speed of a two-dimensional Taylor swimming sheet beneath a Brinkman layer of finite thickness. This configuration is representative of a swimmer confined within a porous non-Newtonian…
The connection between the drag and vorticity dynamics for viscous flow over a bluff body is explored using the Josephson-Anderson (J-A) relation for classical fluids. The instantaneous rate of work on the fluid, associated with the drag…
Non-spherical bubble collapses near solid boundaries, generating water hammer pressures and shock waves, were recognized as key mechanisms for cavitation erosion. However, there is no agreement on local erosion patterns, and cavitation…
Phase change materials (PCMs) hold considerable promise for thermal energy storage applications. However, designing a PCM system to meet specific performance presents a formidable challenge, given the intricate influence of multiple factors…
The linear stability of a thermally stratified fluid layer between horizontal walls, where thermal particles are continuously injected at one boundary and extracted at the other - a system known as particulate Rayleigh-B\'enard (pRB) - is…
