Direct numerical simulations of turbulent flow in a channel with one rigid and one viscoelastic wall are performed. An Eulerian-Eulerian model is adopted with a level-set approach to identify the fluid-compliant material interface. Focus is…

We introduce the Python program THALAS (TensorFlow Hydrodynamics Analysis for Lyman-Alpha Simulations), which maps baryon fields (baryon density, temperature, and velocity) to Ly$\alpha$ optical depth fields in both real space and redshift…

This paper presents a new code for performing multidimensional radiation hydrodynamic (RHD) simulations on parallel computers involving anisotropic radiation fields and nonequilibrium effects. The radiation evolution modules described here…

Our ability to predict the structure and evolution of stars is in part limited by complex, 3D hydrodynamic processes such as convective boundary mixing. Hydrodynamic simulations help us understand the dynamics of stellar convection and…

Mixing processes in stars driven by composition gradients as a result of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability are not anticipated. They are supported only by hydrodynamic studies of stellar convection. We find that such mixing occurs below the…

Three very different algorithms have been proposed for solution of the Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing problem. They are based upon three different physical principles governing the Euler equations for fluid flow, which serve to complete…

We discuss a generalization of the classic Keplerian disk test problem allowing for both pressure and rotational support, as a method of testing astrophysical codes incorporating both gravitation and hydrodynamics. We argue for the…

For simulations that deal only with dark matter or stellar systems, the conventional N-body technique is fast, memory efficient, and relatively simple to implement. However when including the effects of gas physics, mesh codes are at a…

The potential for laser-produced plasmas to yield fundamental insights into high energy density physics (HEDP) and deliver other useful applications can sometimes be frustrated by uncertainties in modeling the properties and expansion of…

A cosmological multidimensional hydrodynamic code is described and tested. This code is based on modern high-resolution shock-capturing techniques. It can make use of a linear or a parabolic cell reconstruction as well as an approximate…

We discuss the irreversibility, nonlocality, and fluctuations, as well as the Lyapunov and hydrodynamic instabilities characterizing atomistic, smooth-particle, and finite-difference solutions of the two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard…

Here we report the development of SPRAY, a massively parallel GPU accelerated, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)-based, radiation hydrodynamics (RHD) code designed specifically for simulating high intensity laser-plasma interactions.…

We describe the implementation and testing of a smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code that solves the equations of radiation hydrodynamics in the flux-limited diffusion (FLD) approximation. The SPH equations of radiation hydrodynamics…

The diffuse medium in and around galaxies can exist in a multi-phase state: small, cold gas clouds contributing significantly to the total mass embedded in pressure equilibrium with a hotter, more diffuse volume-filling component. Modeling…

The Rayleigh--Taylor instability of two immiscible fluids in the limit of small Atwood numbers is studied by means of a phase-field description. In this method the sharp fluid interface is replaced by a thin, yet finite, transition layer…

We report on two- and three-dimensional numerical simulations of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities in immiscible fluids. A diffuse-interface model that combines the Cahn-Hilliard equation, governing the evolution of the volume fraction of one…

This work investigates the morphological stability of a soft body composed of two heavy elastic layers, attached to a rigid surface and subjected only to the bulk gravity force. Using theoretical and computational tools, we characterize the…

When a liquid drop strikes a deep pool of a second liquid, an impact crater opens while the liquid of the drop decelerates and spreads on the surface of the crater. If the density of the drop is larger than the surrounding, the interface…

A new hydrodynamics code aimed at astrophysical applications has been developed. The new code and algorithms are presented along with a comprehensive suite of test problems in one, two, and three dimensions. The new code is shown to be…

Our work is motivated by the analysis of ash plume dynamics, arising in the study of volcanic eruptions. Such phenomena are characterized by large Reynolds number (exceeding $10^7$) and a large number of polydispersed particles~[1]. Thus,…
