This paper presents a comprehensive mathematical model of a servopneumatic system, aimed at its consolidation in literature. The work exploits system's friction forces, temperature and pressure evolution, heat transfer, leakage between…

In this paper we outline methods for calculating the pressure field inside flow conduits in the one-dimensional flow models where the pressure is dependent on the axial coordinate only. The investigation is general with regard to the tube…

Spatio-temporally complex flows are found at the onset of unsteadiness in (axisymmetric) rotor-stator turbulence in the shape of concentric rolls. The emergence of these rolls is rationalised using a homotopy approach, where the original…

The stability of a flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible fluid in a channel with an imposed uniform wall-normal magnetic field and electrically insulating walls is studied using linear stability analysis and direct numerical…

A simple model for solid friction is analyzed. It is based on tangential springs representing interlocked asperities of the surfaces in contact. Each spring is given a maximal strain according to a probability distribution. At their maximal…

In quasi-two-dimensional experiments with photoelastic particles confined to an annular region, an intruder constrained to move in a circular path halfway between the annular walls experiences stick-slip dynamics. We discuss the response of…

A theoretical and computational investigation is carried out of a dissipative model of rate-independent strain-gradient plasticity and its regularization. It is shown that the flow relation, when expressed in terms of the Cauchy stress, is…

We introduce a new measure for the stability of structures, such as the cross-section of the deck of a suspension bridge, subject to a 2D fluid force, such as the lift exerted by a laminar wind. We consider a wide class of possible flows,…

A stochastic model is derived to predict the turbulent torque produced by a swirling flow. It is a simple Langevin process, with a colored noise. Using the unified colored noise approximation, we derive analytically the PDF of the…

The aim of this work is to study the dynamics and stability of soft shape-morphing configurations and specifically the modes of interaction between the front and rear airfoil segments. Initially we present several steady-state solutions,…

The two most commonly used methods to model the behaviour of granular flows are discrete element and continuum mechanics simulations. These approaches concentrate on the deterministic description of particle or bulk material motion. Unlike…

This study analyses the main characteristics of the fully developed laminar pulsatile flow in a toroidal pipe as the governing parameters vary. A novel computational technique is developed to obtain time-periodic solutions of the…

Arc plasmas have promising applications in many fields. To explore their property is of interest. This paper presents detailed pressure-based finite volume simulation of argon arc. In the modeling, the whole cathode region is coupled to…

This study presents a novel and user-friendly technique for detecting the lateral capillary force on a floating spherical particle. The technique leverages the interplay between the capillary attracting forces, hydrostatic pressure forces,…

The asymptotic structure of outflows from rotating magnetized objects confined by a uniform external pressure is calculated. The flow is assumed to be perfect MHD, polytropic, axisymmetric and stationary. The well known associated first…

A computational study of three-dimensional instability of steady flows in a helical pipe of arbitrary curvature and torsion is carried out for the first time. The problem is formulated in Germano coordinates in two equivalent but different…

Many practical applications exploit an external local magnetic field -- magnetic obstacle -- as an essential part of their constructions. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the flow of an electrically conducting fluid influenced by an…

We report pattern formation in an otherwise non-uniform and unsteady flow arising in high-speed liquid entrainment conditions on the outer wall of a wide rotating drum. We show that the coating flow in this rotary drag-out undergoes axial…

The buoyancy force is the cause of ordered vertical movements in the atmosphere, therefore, the analysis of the causes and conditions of its formation is important not only for the formation of convective clouds, but also for understanding…

Systems switching between different dynamical phases is an ubiquitous phenomenon. The general understanding of such a process is limited. To this end, we present a general expression that captures fluctuations of a system exhibiting a…
