The Moody diagram, a plot of friction factor versus flow rate, is a well-known engineering tool for estimating head loss in pipe flows. It comprises well-defined relationships between friction factor and flow rate over the majority of…
A theoretical and numerical study of complex sliding flows of yield-stress fluids is presented. Yield-stress fluids are known to slide over solid surfaces if the tangential stress exceeds the {\it sliding yield stress}. The sliding may…
In this paper, we study a non-linear numerical scheme arising from the implicit time discretization of the Ba\v{z}ant-Thonguthai model for hygro-thermal behavior of concrete at high temperatures. Existence and uniqueness of the…
This study examines the flow of dense granular materials under external shear stress and pressure using discrete element method simulations. In this method, the material is allowed to strain along all periodic directions and adapt its solid…
We report a local analysis of the flow of foams in two dimensional heterogeneous model porous media. Pressure measurements are combined with direct observation in order to determine simultaneously the effective viscosity and the fraction of…
When the SGH Lagrangian based on triangle mesh is used to simulate compressible hydrodynamics, because of the stiffness of triangular mesh, the problem of physical quantity cell-to-cell spatial oscillation (also called "checkerboard…
Complex materials with internal microstructure such as suspensions and emulsions exhibit time-dependent rheology characterized by viscoelasticity and thixotropy. In many large-scale applications such as turbulent pipe flow, the elastic…
This study examined the flow rate in arteries using the modified Windkessel model, considering various models for blood pressure. An exact solution was derived using a Laplace transform method and the effects of blood pressure on the flow…
Consider the 3D flow of a viscous Newtonian fluid upon a curved 2D substrate when the fluid film is thin as occurs in many draining, coating and biological flows. We derive a comprehensive model of the dynamics of the film, the model being…
This study revisits the development of viscoplastic flow in pipes and channels, focusing on the flow of a Bingham plastic. Using finite element simulations and the Papanastasiou regularisation, results are obtained across a range of…
We investigate theoretically the buoyancy-driven motion of a viscous drop in a yield-stress material, incorporating elastic effects represented by the Saramito-Herschel-Bulkley constitutive equation. We solve the governing equations using…
For slowly rotating fluids, we establish the existence of a critical point similar to the one found for non-rotating systems. As the fluid approaches the critical point, the effective inertial mass of any fluid element decreases, vanishing…
Extensive investigations have been and are being carried out on a stiff clay from an underground research laboratory located at Mol (Belgium) called Boom clay, in the context of research into deep nuclear waste disposal. Suction effects in…
The microstructure and rheological properties of suspensions of neutrally buoyant hard spherical particles in Newtonian fluid under conditions of finite inertia are studied using the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM), which is based on a…
The rod-climbing or Weissenberg effect in which the free surface of a complex fluid climbs a thin rotating rod is a popular and convincing experiment demonstrating the existence of elasticity in polymeric fluids. The interface shape depends…
It is known from both experiments and molecular dynamics simulations that chemically patterning a solid surface has an effect on the flow of an adjacent liquid. This fact is in stark contrast with predictions of classical fluid mechanics…
In this work we present the design of a new test geometry inspired by the Tapered Double Cantilever Beam (TDCB) specimen that is shown to provide an improved characterization of the fracture properties of brittle solids. First, we show that…
Thixotropic yields stress fluids are complex materials such as paint, drilling mud, and food products like ketchup or yogurt. They behave as a solid below a certain shear stress (called yield stress), and flows as a liquid above it. The…
Motivated by tunnel accidents in the recent past several investigations into the sustained load behavior of adhesive anchors have been initiated. Nevertheless, the reliable life-time prediction of bonded anchor systems based on a relatively…
As shown by strains measured on full scale experimental aircraft structures, traffic of slow-moving multiple loads leads to asymmetric transverse strains that can be higher than longitudinal strains at the bottom of asphalt pavement layers.…
