Background: Despite the significant advances made in the field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate the left atrium (LA) in atrial fibrillation (AF) conditions, the connection between atrial structure, flow dynamics, and blood…
Patterns of vorticity in the wake of a single rectangular winglet (vortex generator) embedded in a turbulent boundary layer have been studied using Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV). The winglet was mounted normally to a flat…
Proper heart morphogenesis requires a delicate balance between hemodynamic forces, myocardial activity, morphogen gradients, and epigenetic signaling, all of which are coupled with genetic regulatory networks. Recently both in vivo and in…
An improved understanding of how vortices develop and propagate under pulsatile flow can shed important light on the mixing and transport processes including the transition to turbulent regime occurring in such systems. For example, the…
The vortex dynamics in mesoscopic superconducting cylinders with rectangular cross section under an axially applied magnetic field is investigated in the multivortex London regime. The rectangles considered range from a square up to an…
We study structure formation in two-dimensional turbulence driven by an external force, interpolating between linear instability forcing and random stirring, subject to nonlinear damping. Using extensive direct numerical simulations, we…
This study employs an improved volume of fluid method and adaptive mesh refinement algorithm to numerically investigate the internal jet-like mixing upon the coalescence of two initially stationary droplets of unequal sizes. The emergence…
Thin cylindrical membranes arise in a wide variety of biological systems ranging from tubular structures on and within cell membranes to in-vitro experiments on artificial vesicles. Motor proteins embedded in such fluidic membranes often…
A minimal model for mechanical motion of the left ventricle is proposed. The model assumes the left ventricle to be a harmonic oscillator with two distinct phases, simulating the systolic and diastolic phases, at which both the amplitude…
When a drop falls from a moderate height into a shallow fluid pool whose depth is of the order of the drop-radius two pairs of vortex rings are generated. The inner pair forms at the edge of the crater created by the impacting drop while…
The formation of a vortex ring from a piston/nozzle apparatus depends on the nozzle exit's shape. Here we study the formation mechanism and the evolution of asymmetrical rings from notched nozzles using direct numerical simulations. Three…
The interaction of a shock wave with a spherical density inhomogeneity leads to the development of a vortex ring through the impulsive deposition of baroclinic vorticity. The present fluid dynamics videos display this phenomenon and were…
In this work, we propose a novel approach which combines ultrasound with Eulerian and Lagrangian descriptors, to analyse blood flow dynamics and fluid transport in stenotic aortic models with morphology, mechanical and optical properties…
We investigate the interaction between vortex rings and cylindrical obstacles using direct numerical simulations across a wide range of geometric and dynamical parameters. The flow is characterized in terms of the diameter ratio between…
Two-dimensional numerical simulations have been performed to understand the effect of wall proximity on the vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of an elastically mounted circular cylinder having two degrees of freedom for gap ratios g/D =…
Vortex rings are critical for thrust production underwater. In the ocean, self-propelled mesozooplankton generate vortices while swimming within a weakly stratified fluid. While large-scale biogenic transport has been observed during…
A symmetric anti-parallel quantum pair of vortices is simulated using the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevski equations. The initial development before cores interact directly demonstrates the traditional vortex dynamics of stretching,…
Playing a role in the locomotion of some animals such as the water strider, the formation and dynamics of a semi vortex ring connected to a free surface are experimentally investigated. This semi vortex ring is generated by the circular…
An analysis of the geometry and structure of centre vortices in the presence of dynamical fermions is performed. A variety of metrics are used to measure the matrix structure of the vortex-modified gauge fields. Visualisations of centre…
Vortex rings are remarkably stable structures occurring in numerous systems: for example in turbulent gases, where they are at the origin of weather phenomena [1]; in fluids with implications for biology [2]; in electromagnetic discharges…
