We use three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of homogeneous isotropic turbulence in a cubic domain to investigate the dynamics of heavy, chiral, finite-size inertial particles and their effects on the flow. Using an…
Hypothesis: Measuring rotational and translational Brownian motion of single spherical particles reveals dissipations due to the interaction between the particle and the environment. Experiments: In this article, we show experiments where…
This work thoroughly examines several analytical tools, each possessing a different level of mathematical intricacy, for the purpose of characterizing the orientation distribution function of elongated objects under flow. Our investigation…
We study the interface dynamics of a binary particle mixture in a rotating cylinder numerically. By considering only the particle motion in axial direction, it is shown that the initial dynamics can be well described by a one-dimensional…
Smoothed Dissipative Particle Dynamics (SDPD) is a mesoscopic method which allows to select the level of resolution at which a fluid is simulated. In this work, we study the consistency of the resulting thermodynamic properties as a…
The process of the elastic scattering of photons on atoms, known as the Rayleigh scattering, is investigated. Expressing the scattering observables in terms of the electric and magnetic complex scattering amplitudes, we work over the…
Viscous Keplerian discs become sub-Keplerian close to a black hole since they pass through sonic points before entering into it. We study the time evolution of polytropic viscous accretion discs (both in one and two dimensional flows) using…
Lattice simulations of light nuclei necessarily take place in finite volumes, thus affecting their infrared properties. These effects can be addressed in a model-independent manner using Effective Field Theories. We study the model case of…
We present a computational investigation on the slow dynamics of a mixture of large and small soft spheres. By varying the size disparity at a moderate fixed composition different relaxation scenarios are observed for the small particles.…
We study the consistency and convergence of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), as a function of the interpolation parameters, namely the number of particles $N$, the number of neighbors $n$, and the smoothing length $h$, using…
Particle-laden turbulent flow that separates due to a bump inside a channel is simulated to analyse the effects of the Stokes number and the lift force on the particle spatial distribution. The fluid friction Reynolds number is…
The numerical accuracy of particle-based approximations in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is significantly affected by the spatial uniformity of particle distributions, especially for second-order derivatives. This study aims to…
We combine a DEM simulation with a stochastic process to model the movement of spherical particles in a turbulent channel flow. With this model we investigate the mixing properties of two species of particles flowing through the channel. We…
The settling process and wall impact of large spherical particles in a stagnant, highly viscous fluid has been observed by means of high-speed shadow imaging. The particles included in this study vary in size and material properties: steel,…
The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method has been increasingly used to study fluid problems in recent years; but its computational cost can be high if high resolution is required. In this study, an adaptive resolution method based…
The way particles interact with turbulent structures, particularly in regions of high vorticity and strain rate, has been investigated in simulations of homogeneous turbulence and in simple flows which have a periodic or persistent…
We experimentally investigate the Lagrangian dynamics of finite-sized, neutrally buoyant droplets in homogeneous isotropic turbulence. The droplet size follows a log-normal distribution whose average value decreases with increasing Reynolds…
We obtain analytic expressions for the time correlation functions of a liquid of spherical particles, exact in the limit of high dimensions $d$. The derivation is long but straightforward: a dynamic virial expansion for which only the first…
We present the results of a Molecular Dynamics computer simulations of a two component isotope mixture of Lennard-Jones particles, monodisperse in size but different in masses, at a fixed average density and temperature. We study changes in…
Simulations of over $10^3$ hydrodynamically coupled solid spheres are performed to investigate collective motion of linear trains and regular square arrays of particles suspended in a fluid bounded by two parallel walls. Our novel…
