The flow of a liquid metal (LM) in a rectangular duct segment, subject to a uniform transverse magnetic field and uniform heating at the side walls is explored in an ample parameter space using Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). We modify…
As one of the cornerstones of fluid mechanics, stability analyses provide essential physical insights into the growth of perturbations and eventual transition to turbulence. However, classical \enquote{frozen-time} stability analyses…
Dynamic soaring enables sustained flight by extracting energy from wind shear, yet it is commonly understood as a cycle-level maneuver that assumes stable flow conditions. In realistic unsteady environments, however, such assumptions are…
We study the modulational stability problem for the traveling periodic waves (called Stokes waves) in an infinitely deep fluid by using pseudo-differential operators in conformal variables. We derive the criteria and the normal forms for…
Multiscale Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (mPOD) decomposes fluid flows into energy-optimal modes within prescribed frequency bands by combining Proper Orthogonal Decomposition with a multiresolution analysis (MRA). In its classical…
Turbulent channel flow controlled by spanwise wall oscillations is studied using direct numerical simulations to improve how spanwise forcing reduces skin-friction drag. Harmonic wall oscillations generate a periodic transverse Stokes layer…
Recent study \cite{rajamanickam2025shear} of non-Boussinesq fluids in narrow channels identified a novel shear-induced horizontal buoyancy force that emerges upon depth-averaging the Navier--Stokes equations. This note demonstrates that…
Uncertainty in estimating the log-law parameters is arguably the greatest obstacle to establishing definitive conclusions regarding their numerical values and universality. This challenge is exacerbated by the limited number of studies that…
A new radiation solver, RAPRAL (RAdiation Prediction based on RAy tracing and Line-by-line) implemented in C++, is developed for simulating high-temperature thermochemical nonequilibrium radiative processes. RAPRAL integrates detailed…
Clusters of co-rotating vortices on compact fluid domains exhibit a simple collective dynamics, combining coherent global rotation with a slow breathing of the cluster size. In this work, we investigate an analytically tractable model of…
Contrary to accepted turbulence folklore, which holds that no mathematical relation exists between the Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs) and the multifractal model (MFM) of Parisi and Frisch, we develop a theory that reconciles the MFM with…
Thermally driven emulsions arise in a broad range of natural and industrial contexts, yet their fundamental physical understanding remains only partially established. Emulsions exhibit a complex, concentration-dependent rheology, ranging…
We investigate the validity of the Markovian assumption in modeling near-wall turbulence by analyzing the detachment of micron-sized particles from the viscous sublayer. By coupling direct numerical simulations with a fractional…
This paper introduces a novel data driven framework for constructing accurate and general equivariant models of multiscale phenomena which does not rely on specific assumptions about the underlying physics. This framework is illustrated…
We present a body-free simulation framework for three-dimensional turbulent cylinder wakes, in which the upstream cylinder is not explicitly resolved. Instead, the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations are solved in a simplified…
The influence of turbine-turbine interactions on sound propagation is investigated using numerical simulations. Three configurations are examined: turbines aligned downstream of each other, placed side by side, and arranged in a staggered…
The single droplet under shear is a foundational problem in fluid mechanics. In computational fluid dynamics, the two-dimensional (2D) formulation offers advantages in both computational efficiency and relevance, yet its theoretical…
Droplets, solid particles, and gas bubbles in unsteady flows experience the Basset-Boussinesq history force (BBH) in addition to steady viscous drag, added mass, and buoyancy. Although physically relevant, the BBH term is often neglected…
Wall-bounded turbulence is characterized by coherent, worm-like structures such as hairpin vortices. The attached-eddy model provides a successful statistical framework for the log-law region, yet the complex geometry and multiscale nature…
Bicuspid valves with crescent-shaped leaflets are found in lymphatic vessels and veins, where their primary function is to prevent reflux and ensure unidirectional flow toward the heart. These valves are passive, and their functionality…
