This paper investigates the dynamics of time-periodic Euler flows in multi-connected, planar fluid regions which are ``stirred'' by the moving boundaries. The classical Helmholtz theorem on the transport of vorticity implies that if the…
The flow of a two--layer stratified fluid over an abrupt topographic obstacle, simulating relevant situations in oceanographic problems, is investigated numerically and experimentally in a simplified two--dimensional situation. Experimental…
Viscous flow past a finite plate which is impulsively started in direction normal to itself is studied numerically using a high order mixed finite difference and semi-Lagrangian scheme. The goal is to resolve details of the vorticity…
For Hagen-Poiseuille flow the mechanism of laminar-to-turbulent transition originated from the deceleration of disturbed streams on the pipe wall is analyzed. An expression for the critical Reynolds number and the disturbance in the form of…
In this essay, we recall the specificities of the transition to turbulence in wall-bounded flows and present recent achievements in the understanding of this problem. The transition is abrupt with laminar-turbulent coexistence over a finite…
We perform a numeric study of the flux transitions in a superconducting ring at fixed temperature, while the applied field is swept at an ideally slow rate. The current around the ring and its free energy are evaluated. We partially explain…
The flow in a shock tube is extremely complex with dynamic multi-scale structures of sharp fronts, flow separation, and vortices due to the interaction of the shock wave, the contact surface, and the boundary layer over the side wall of the…
This paper is devoted to analytical solutions for the base flow and temporal stability of a liquid film driven by gravity over an inclined plane when the fluid rheology is given by the Carreau-Yasuda model, a general description that…
The effects of a vertical static magnetic field on the flow structure and global transport properties of momentum and heat in liquid metal Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are investigated. Experiments are conducted in a cylindrical convection…
We study the effect of a turbulent flow of liquid sodium generated in the von K\'arm\'an geometry, on the localized field of a magnet placed close to the frontier of the flow. We observe that the field can be transported by the flow on…
We observe the transient formation of a ringed pattern state during spin-up of an evaporating fluid on a time scale of order a few Ekman spin-up times. The ringed state is probed using infrared thermometry and particle image velocimetry and…
The ABC flow is a prototype for fast dynamo action, essential to the origin of magnetic field in large astrophysical objects. Probably the most studied configuration is the classical 1:1:1 flow. We investigate its dynamo properties varying…
We consider incompressible flows between two transversely vibrating solid walls and construct an asymptotic expansion of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in the limit when both the amplitude of vibrations and the thickness of the…
In this paper we carry out a numerical investigation of forced convection heat transfer from a heated elliptical cylinder in a uniform free stream with angle of inclination $\theta^{\circ}$. Numerical simulations were carried out for $10…
The drag on a golf ball can be reduced by dimpling the surface. There have been few studies, primarily experimental, that provide quantitative information on the details of the drag reduction mechanisms. To illuminate the underlying…
This study presents numerical simulations and experiments considering the flow of an electrically conducting fluid inside a cube driven by a rotating magnetic field (RMF). The investigations are focused on the spin-up, where a liquid metal…
The conventional no-slip boundary condition leads to a non-integrable stress singularity at a moving contact line. This makes numerical simulations challenging, especially when capillary effects are essential for the dynamics of the flow.…
Numerical simulations of kinematic dynamo action in steady and 3-d ABC flows are presented with special focus on growth rates and multiple periods of the prescribed velocity field. It is found that the difference in growth rate is due to…
This manuscript has been accepted for publication in Physical Review Fluids, see https://journals.aps.org/prfluids/accepted/d5074S28J6b11905012b7cb06505e8f2149dd5f20. This work investigates the mechanisms that underlie transitions to…
We numerically simulate three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, the flow in a fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above, with inhomogeneous temperature boundary conditions to explore two distinct regimes described in…
