A novel implicit cell-vertex finite volume method is presented for the solution of both the Navier-Stokes equations and the governing equations for certain viscoelastic fluids. The key idea is the elimination of the pressure term from the momentum equation ...
Any solution of the Navier–Stokes equations in a three-dimensional axisymmetric domain admits a Fourier expansion with respect to the angular variable, and it can be noted that each Fourier coefficient satisfies a variational problem on the meridian domain ...
"Starting from the gas kinetic model, a new class of schemes for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws is presented. The flow solvers are based on the Boltzmann equations. The numerical discretization is based on the upwind cell vertex fluctuation-splitt ...
In this paper we examine the importance of fluid friction and nonlinearities due to the area-pressure relationship and to the convective acceleration on the separation of arterial pressure and flow waves into their forward and backward components. Experime ...
A nonlinear method has been developed to separate arterial pressure and flow waves into their forward and backward running components. It takes into account nonlinearities arising from the area-pressure relationship as well as convective acceleration. The ...
his study is devoted to a test of theoretical results for the relation between the correlation function of turbulent velocity fluctuations obtained by Lagrangian and Eulerian sampling, respectively. The comparison is based on direct numerical simulations o ...
A new method for the separation of forward and backward running waves in elastic conduits, with possible extension to the arterial system, has been developed. The mathematical model is based on the one-dimensional flow equations which allow the treatment o ...
Two:dimensional time-dependent calculations for a molecular model of finite extensibility in the journal-bearing geometry are presented. The flow is considered to be incompressible and isothermal. The momentum conservation equation is integrated using a ti ...
