A Monolithic Approach to Fluid–Composite Structure Interaction

Simone Deparis, Davide Forti, Annalisa Quaini

We study a nonlinear fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problem between an incompressible, viscous fluid and a composite elastic structure consisting of two layers: a thin layer (membrane) in direct contact with the fluid, and a thick layer (3D linearly ela ...

Hyperthermia with rotating magnetic nanowires inducing heat into tumor by fluid friction

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Anne-Gabrielle Pawlowski, Bastien De Marco, William Bovy

A magnetic hyperthermia cancer treatment strategy that does not operate by means of conventional heating mechanisms is presented. The proposed approach consists of injecting a gel with homogeneously distributed magnetic nanowires into a tumor. Upon the app ...

3D FEM dissipation model of suspended micro channel resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, François Gallaire, Annalisa De Pastina, Andrea Fani

Suspended micro channel resonators (SMCs) consist of hollow resonant structures containing an embedded u-shaped micro fluidic channel. The confinement of the fluid inside the resonator allows real time detection of liquid compounds in air or in vacuum, whi ...

Critical inclination for absolute/convective instability transition in inverted falling films

Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Liquid films flowing down the underside of inclined plates are subject to the interaction between the hydrodynamic and the Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instabilities causing a patterned and wavy topology at the free surface. The R-T instability results from the d ...

Thermodynamic modeling of gas-liquid-water partitioning and fluid properties for Macondo reservoir fluid at deep-water conditions

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

With the expansion of offshore petroleum exploration and extraction activities, validated models are needed to simulate the behaviors of petroleum compounds released in deep (>100 m) waters. We developed a thermodynamic model of the gas-liquid-water partit ...

Simulating gas-liquid-water partitioning and fluid properties of petroleum under pressure: Implications for deep-sea blowouts

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

With the expansion of offshore petroleum extraction, validated models are needed to simulate the behaviors of petroleum compounds released in deep (>100 m) waters. We present a thermodynamic model of the densities, viscosities, and gas-liquid-water partiti ...

Development of a finite volume particle method for 3-D fluid flow simulations

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Christian Vessaz

The Finite Volume Particle Method (FVPM) is a meshless method for simulating fluid flows which includes many of the desirable features of mesh-based finite volume methods. FVPM benefits from particle interaction vectors to weight conservative fluxes exchan ...

Too big to grow

Vladislav Mantic Lugo

Open flows, such as wakes, jets, separation bubbles, mixing layers, boundary layers, etc., develop in domains where fluid particles are continuously advected downstream. They are encountered in a wide variety of situations, ranging from nature to technolog ...

Predicting the state and properties of Deepwater Horizon oil under pressure using the Peng-Robinson equation of state

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

Being able to estimate the partitioning behavior of the live oil mixture between a gas and a hydrocarbon liquid phase is crucial for valid modeling of the behavior of the emitted fluid. Equations of state are a well-known way to estimate the phase partitio ...
