Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) generators present a promising pathway for clean energy conversion by directly transforming conductive fluids' kinetic energy into electricity. This study investigates the impact of electrode geometry…
We develop a data-driven framework for discovering constitutive relations in models of fluid flow and scalar transport. Under the assumption that velocity and/or scalar fields are measured, our approach infers unknown closure terms in the…
Groundwater flow in an unconfined aquifer resting on a horizontal impermeable layer with a boundary condition of a rapid increase in the source water level is considered in this work. The newly introduced condition, referred to as the…
Ternary interactions between hetero-fluid particles, particularly the dynamics of droplets spreading over curved fluid interfaces remain insufficiently understood compared to the two-phase coalescence. In this study, we combine lattice…
This study examines the applicability of two leading-edge dynamic stall criteria, namely, the maximum magnitudes of the leading-edge suction parameter (LESP) and the boundary enstrophy flux (BEF), in a moderately compressible flow regime.…
In this paper, a semi-analytical model based on the Wiener-Hopf technique is developed to predict the turbulent boundary layer trailing edge noise from serrated edges, aiming to account for the correct three-dimensional noise source and…
Multicomponent vesicles suspended in viscoelastic fluids are crucial for understanding a variety of physiological processes. In this work, we develop a continuum surface force (CSF) phase-field model to investigate the hydrodynamics of…
The simulation of turbulent flows remains a central challenge, as even our most powerful computers cannot resolve the finest scales of motion in many flows of practical interest. As a result, the effects of unresolved scales on large eddies…
Direct and large-eddy simulations of turbulence are often solved using explicit temporal schemes. However, this imposes very small time-steps because the eigenvalues of the (linearized) dynamical system, re-scaled by the time-step, must lie…
When a droplet impacts a liquid film, a vortex ring form and govern momentum and species transport. We experimentally investigate vortex ring formation, propagation and instability during droplet impact onto liquid films, with particular…
Due to the prohibitive cost of resolving all relevant scales, direct numerical simulations of turbulence remain unfeasible for most real-world applications. Consequently, dynamically simplified formulations are needed for coarse-grained…
This work presents a novel combination of two well-established techniques: particle image velocimetry (PIV) and fringe projection profilometry (FPP). Despite seemingly conflicting requirements -- PIV requires a transparent fluid, while FPP…
We investigate the Ferrofluid Drop Targeting (FDT) for the treatment of the Retinal Detachment (RD), considering, for the first time, the real 3D geometry of an eye and magnets configurations as well as the viscoelastic rheology of the…
Traditional design principles for determining the optimal intake ramp or cone angles, for ensuring no flow spillage at the intake cowl under design conditions, and for the form of the terminal shock in the intake duct are revisited. We show…
In this paper, we study the ventilation airflow in a model classroom, where exhaust fans throw out the used air, to replace it with outdoor air through open door. Hybrid ventilation, or mechanically assisted natural ventilation, of this…
Wall pressure fluctuations beneath the turbulent boundary layer of high-speed underwater vehicles are crucial for hydro-acoustics and acoustic stealth. However, a comprehensive understanding remains limited due to a lack of high-quality…
We present a numerical study of three-dimensional gravity-capillary standing waves by using cubic and quintic truncated Hamiltonian formulations and the Craig-Sulem expansion of the Dirichlet-Neumann operator (DNO). The resulting models are…
We study turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection through direct numerical simulations in a three-dimensional plane layer of aspect ratio 4 for Rayleigh numbers $10^5 \leq Ra \leq 10^{11}$ and Prandtl number $Pr=0.7$. We summarize the…
We present a framework to calculate the scale-resolved turbulent Prandtl number $Pr_t$ for the well-mixed and highly inertial bulk of a turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard mesoscale convection layer at a molecular Prandtl number $Pr=10^{-3}$. It…
The hydrodynamic stability analysis of gravity-driven, soluble surfactant-laden fluid streaming down a slippery, slanted plane in the presence of external shear force is being explored in this article. The Navier-Stokes equations are…
