We present a direct comparison between interface-resolved and one-way-coupled point-particle direct numerical simulations (DNS) of gravity-free turbulent channel flow laden with small inertial particles, with high particle-to-fluid density…
Biological locomotion, observed in the flexible wings of birds and insects, bodies and fins of aquatic mammals and fishes, consists of their ability to morph the wings/fins. The morphing capability holds significance in the abilities of…
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 oscillatory flow around a spherical object lying on a rough bottom is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations of continuity and Navier-Stokes equations. The rough bottom is simulated by a layer/multiple layers of spherical…
We report on a investigation of turbulent bubbly flows. Bubbles of a size larger than the dissipative scale, cannot be treated as point-wise inclusions, and generate important hydrodynamic fields in the carrier fluid when in motion.…
The flow field generated by a transom-stern hullform is a complex, broad-banded, three-dimensional phenomenon marked by a large breaking wave. This unsteady multiphase turbulent flow feature is difficult to study experimentally and simulate…
To investigate the link between discrete, small-scale and continuous, large scale mechanical properties of a foam, we observe its two-dimensional flow in a channel, around an elliptical obstacle. We measure the drag, lift and torque acting…
A large scale parametric study of the flow over the prolate spheroid is presented to understand the effect of Reynolds number and angle of attack on the separation, the wake formation and the loads. Large-Eddy Simulation is performed for…
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,…
We investigate the behavior of a treadmilling microswimmer in a two-dimensional unbounded domain with a semi-infinite no-slip wall. The wall can also be regarded as a probe or pipette inserted into the flow. We solve the governing evolution…
Dynamics at low Reynolds numbers experiences recent revival in the fields of biophysics and active matter. While in bulk isotropic fluids it is exhaustively studied, this is less so in anisotropic fluids and in confined situations. Here, we…
Machine learning has recently become a promising technique in fluid mechanics, especially for active flow control (AFC) applications. A recent work [J. Fluid Mech. (2019), vol. 865, pp. 281-302] has demonstrated the feasibility and…
This study explores the dynamics of dispersed bubbly turbulent flow in a channel using interface-resolved direct numerical simulation (DNS) with an efficient Coupled Level-Set Volume-of-Fluid (CLSVOF) solver. The influence of number of…
Ocean dynamics play a crucial role in global climate, ecosystems, and human activities, necessitating accurate and efficient methods to characterize ocean currents and waves. This paper presents the development of a novel bio-inspired…
The Rankine oval is a classical geometry in potential flow, formed by superimposing a uniform stream with velocity U and a source-sink pair separated by distance 2a with strength m, resulting in a closed stagnation streamline whose shape is…
A single flexible filament can be actuated to escape from the scallop theorem and generate net propulsion at low Reynolds number. In this work, we study the dynamics of a simple boundary-driven multi-filament swimmer, a two-arm clamshell…
The correspondence of secondary spanwise structures and pressure gradient is numerically evaluated for a foil, performing heaving and pitching motion, at a range of phase offsets (90$^\circ$ $\le \phi \le$ 270$^\circ$) and reduced frequency…
The aim of this paper is to propose a new numerical model to simulate 2D vesicles interacting with a newtonian fluid. The inextensible membrane is modeled by a chain of circular rigid particles which are maintained in cohesion by using two…
We examine the Markov properties of the three velocity components of a turbulent flow generated by a DNS simulation of the flow around an airfoil section. The spectral element code Nektar has been used to generate a well resolved flow field…
In this article we present recent developments in numerical methods for performing a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of the formation and evolution of a wingtip vortex. The development of these vortices in the near wake, in combination with the…
