In this work, we study the flow in curved channels, an archetypal configuration that allows insights into problems featuring turbulence bounded by curved walls. Besides its relevance to many engineering applications, it exhibits a rich…
This study presents a detailed quantification of how flow orientation affects mass transfer and frictional resistance in periodically confined channels, offering novel insights into the physical similarity relations governing these…
A numerical method based upon the immersed boundary technique for the fluid-solid coupling and on a soft-sphere approach for solid-solid contact is used to perform direct numerical simulation of the flow-induced motion of a thick bed of…
The semi-analytical wall boundary conditions present a mathematically rigorous framework to prescribe the influence of solid walls in SPH for fluid flows. In this paper they are investigated with respect to the skew-adjoint property which…
A coupled mech-hydro-chemical model for rock geometry alteration of fractures under water-rock interaction (WRI) and geostress is developed. Processes including WRI, asperity deformation, mineral chemical dissolution and pressure…
We investigate the influence of expansion geometry on the flow field and turbulence structure in axisymmetric pipe flows through comparative analysis of abrupt ($90^\circ$) and gradual ($45^\circ$) area expansions with an area ratio of 2.56…
A wide and critical comparison of the capability of Method of Characteristics, Explicit Path-Conservative Finite Volume Method and Semi-Implicit Staggered Finite Volume Method is presented and discussed, in terms of accuracy and efficiency.…
This article presents a general reduced order model (ROM) framework for addressing fluid dynamics problems involving time-dependent geometric parametrisations. The framework integrates Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and Empirical…
The shape of a microchannel cross-section is usually affected by a significant uncertainty due to the small hydraulic diameter. Such an uncertainty is indeed present at any scale, but is amplified in smaller scales, becoming significantly…
Laminar flow in devices fabricated from soft materials causes deformation of the passage geometry, which affects the flow rate--pressure drop relation. For a given pressure drop, in channels with narrow rectangular cross-section, the flow…
Direct numerical simulation of open-channel flow over a bed of spheres arranged in a regular pattern has been carried out at bulk Reynolds number and roughness Reynolds number (based on sphere diameter) of approximately 6900 and 120,…
Flow in fractured porous media is of high relevance in a variety of geotechnical applications, given the fact that they ubiquitously occur in nature and that they can have a substantial impact on the hydraulic properties of rock. As a…
The flow above idealized, two-dimensional series of parallelepipedal buildings is examined with the aim of investigating how the building width to height aspect ratio affects the turbulence in the roughness sublayer and the ventilation of…
We investigate the consequences of fluid flowing on a continuous surface upon the geometric and statistical distribution of the flow. We find that the ability of a surface to collect water by its mere geometrical shape is proportional to…
We investigated the pressure-driven flow in curved channels at low aspect ratio, the latter being the ratio between the channel height (along the axial direction) and width (along the radial direction). The dynamics was studied numerically,…
Direct Numerical Simulations of two superposed fluids in a channel with a textured surface on the lower wall have been carried out. A parametric study varying the viscosity ratio between the two fluids has been performed to mimic both {\bf…
The propagation and transformation of water waves over varying bathymetries is a subject of fundamental interest to ocean, coastal and harbor engineers. The specific bathymetry considered in this paper consists of one or two, naturally…
The goal of the present paper is to understand the impact of numerical schemes for the reconstruction of data at cell faces in finite-volume methods, and to assess their interaction with the quadrature rule used to compute the average over…
Assuming a-priori a smooth generating vector field, we introduce a generally covariant measure of the flow geometry called the referential gradient of the flow. The main result is the explicit relation between the referential gradient and…
We analyze the performance of membrane filters represented by pore networks using two criteria: 1) total volumetric throughput of filtrate over the filter lifetime and 2) accumulated foulant concentration in the filtrate. We first formulate…
