An exact solution is developed for the bubble-induced acoustic microstreaming in the case of a gas bubble undergoing asymmetric oscillations. The modeling is based on the decomposition of the solenoidal, first- and second-order, vorticity…
Thermo-responsive hydrogels are smart materials that rapidly switch between hydrophilic (swollen) and hydrophobic (shrunken) states when heated past a threshold temperature, resulting in order-of-magnitude changes in gel volume. Modelling…
In inviscid, incompressible flows, the evolution of vorticity is exactly equivalent to that of an infinitesimal material line-element, and hence vorticity can be traced forward or backward in time in a Lagrangian fashion. This elegant and…
A method is proposed to obtain full-domain spatial modes based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements performed at different (overlapping) spatial locations. This situation occurs when…
In this work, we demonstrate the equivalency of the Rotating Parallel Ray Omnidirectional Integration (RPR-ODI) and the Pressure Poisson Equation (PPE) for pressure field reconstruction from corrupted image velocimetry data (dubbed 'ODI…
In the present study, we conduct direct numerical simulations to investigate the near-wall dynamics of compressible turbulent boundary layers at the free-stream Mach number of 6 laden with heavy particles. By inspecting the instantaneous…
An isolated Leidenfrost droplet levitating over its own vapor above a superheated flat substrate is considered theoretically, the superheating for water being up to several hundred degrees above the boiling temperature. The focus is on the…
We conducted high-resolution large-eddy simulations (LESs) to explore the effects of opposition control (OC) on turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) over a wing at a chord-based Reynolds number (${Re}_c$) of 200,000. Two scenarios were studied:…
This paper investigates the relationship between extensional and shear viscosity of low-viscosity power-law fluids. We show the first experimental evidence of the conditions satisfying the same power exponents for extensional and shear…
Motivated by microfluidic applications, we investigate drag reduction in laminar pressure-driven flows in channels with streamwise-periodic superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) contaminated with soluble surfactant. We develop a model in the…
Direct numerical simulations are performed of turbulent forced convection in a half channel flow with wall oscillating either as a spanwise plane oscillation or to generate a streamwise travelling wave. The friction Reynolds number is fixed…
This article delves into the dynamics of inviscid annular supersonic jets, akin to those exiting converging-diverging nozzles in over-expanded regimes. It focuses on the first azimuthal Fourier mode of flow fluctuations and examines their…
Efficient mixing in high-speed compressible flows, crucial for scramjet operation, can be significantly enhanced by shock wave interactions. This study employs Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) to comprehensively examine the interaction…
Experiments using 3D Lagrangian tracking are used to investigate Kolmogorov scaling below the bubble size in bubble-induced turbulence (BIT). Second and third order structure functions reveal approximate Kolmogorov scaling for homogeneous…
The present study explores the onset of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) and Kelvin-Helmholtz Rayleigh-Taylor instability (KHRTI) with highly-resolved direct numerical simulations of two setups which consider air at different…
Coherence between the velocity fluctuations measured at two points is investigated in a turbulent jet flow. Coherence is calculated in different regions of the flow by changing the separation between the points, the distance between the…
This paper presents a novel sharp front-tracking method designed to address limitations in classical front-tracking approaches, specifically their reliance on smooth interpolation kernels and extended stencils for coupling the front and…
We present a novel discrete velocity kinetic framework to consistently recover the viscous shallow water equations. The proposed model has the following fundamental advantages and novelties: (a) A novel interpretation and general framework…
The propagation characteristics of fluid vortices, particularly monopoles and dipoles, in a homogeneous viscoelastic fluid were reported in a recent publication [ Phys. Plasmas 23, 013707 (2016)]. In that study, a dusty plasma was modeled…
A computational fluid dynamics methodology for the simulation of electromagnetic interactions in compressible reacting flows has been formulated. The developed code, named EMI, is based on the SENGA Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS)…
