The phenomenon of sediment pattern formation in a channel flow is numerically investigated by performing simulations which resolve all the relevant scales of the problem. The numerical approach employed and the flow configuration considered…
Although the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method has been demonstrated as a promising numerical solver for multiphase flow problems due to its Lagrangian nature, its application to complex channel flow may encounter additional…
We investigate both experimentally and theoretically the traffic of particles flowing in microfluidic obstacle networks. We show that the traffic dynamics is a non-linear process: the particle current does not scale with the particle…
This study presents an extensive numerical investigation on the flow characteristics of wormlike micellar solutions past a single and vertically aligned two microcylinders placed in a microchannel in the creeping flow regime on the…
Stable and accurate finite element methods are presented for Darcy flow in heterogeneous porous media with an interface of discontinuity of the hydraulic conductivity tensor. Accurate velocity fields are computed through global or local…
We study fluid-structure interactions (FSIs) in a long and shallow microchannel, conveying a non-Newtonian fluid, at steady state. The microchannel has a linearly elastic and compliant top wall, while its three other walls are rigid. The…
Opposition flow control is a robust strategy that has been proved effective in turbulent wall-bounded flows. Its conventional setup consists of measuring wall-normal velocity in the buffer layer and opposing it at the wall. This work…
The MHD flow driven by a travelling magnetic field (TMF) in an annular channel is investigated numerically. For sufficiently large magnetic Reynolds number Rm, or if a large enough pressure gradient is externally applied, the system…
We present a mesoscopic model of the fluid-wall interactions for flows in microchannel geometries. We define a suitable implementation of the boundary conditions for a discrete version of the Boltzmann equations describing a wall-bounded…
Uniform flow distribution across parallel channels directly impacts the performance and efficiency of many fluid and energy systems. However, designing efficient flow manifolds that ensure uniform flow distribution remains a challenge. This…
We present a comprehensive study of cross-flow ultrafiltration (UF) of charge-stabilized suspensions, under low-salinity conditions of electrostatically strongly repelling colloidal particles. The axially varying permeate flux,…
While flow matching is elegant, its reliance on single-sample conditional velocities leads to high-variance training targets that destabilize optimization and slow convergence. By explicitly characterizing this variance, we identify 1) a…
Transient Navies--Stokes equations for laminar flow of incompressible fluid in a channel with permeable wall are reduced to a single equation for the transversal profile of longitudinal flow velocity. Small--amplitude harmonic perturbation…
A number of approximations have been proposed to estimate basic hydrodynamic quantities, in particular the frequency of a limit cycle. One of these, RZIF (for Real Zero Imaginary Frequency), calls for linearizing the governing equations…
The ability to predict and/or control wall slip is a fundamental problem in the hydrodynamics of yield stress fluids, which is poorly understood to date and has important applications in bio- and micro-fluidic systems. Systematic…
Nonlinear wave phenomena such as stop-and-go traffic patterns are widely observed in vehicular flow but remain challenging to describe within a rigorous mathematical framework. Motivated by this, we investigate nonlinear wave structures in…
Liquid slip flow with a Knudsen number Kn = 0.001-0.1 plays a dominant role in confined flow channels. Its physical origin can be attributed to the intermolecular fluid-solid (F-S) interaction force. To this end, we propose herein…
We present a reduced order model for three dimensional unsteady pressure-driven flows in micro-channels of variable cross-section. This fast and accurate model is valid for long channels, but allows for large variations in the channel's…
We investigate the steady-state fluid--structure interaction between a Newtonian fluid flow and a deformable microtube in two novel geometric configurations arising in recent microfluidics experiments. The first configuration is a…
Continual perturbations to the flow field in the square lid driven cavity can significantly impact both its stability and the dynamic characteristics of the system. In this study, the effect of these perturbations are analyzed via…
