Optimal control and shape optimization techniques have an increasing role in Fluid Dynamics problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). In this paper, we consider the problem of drag minimization for a body in relative motion in a fluid by ...
Problems that exhibit multiple time scales arise naturally in many scientific and engineering fields. For transient, distributed process systems, the corresponding models consist of partial differential equations (PDEs), possibly coupled to ordinary differ ...
In this work, two problems linked to glacier modeling are investigated. We propose an optimisation method for studying the flow of the ice and we present a numerical study about glacier thermal phenomena. In the first chapter of this thesis, we expose the ...
In this thesis we describe a path integral formalism to evaluate approximations to the probability density function for the location and orientation of one end of a continuum polymer chain at thermodynamic equilibrium with a heat bath. We concentrate on th ...
The paper is focused on decelerated swirling flow behavior as the upstream swirl intensity is increased. We define simplified flow model and boundary conditions in order to analyze the basic flow features. Numerical experiments are carried out for incompre ...
The planning and design of a sustainable reservoir require the accurate prediction of flow and sediment deposition patterns. Numerical simulation of flow in reservoirs is important in order to determine the detailed flow pattern. This typically includes fl ...
In this paper, we seek similarity solutions to the shallow water (Saint-Venant) equations for describing the motion of a non-Boussinesq, gravity-driven current in an inertial regime. The current is supplied in fluid by a source placed at the inlet of a hor ...
Mathematical and numerical aspects of free surface flows are investigated. On one hand, the mathematical analysis of some free surface flows is considered. A model problem in one space dimension is first investigated. The Burgers equation with diffusion ha ...
The purpose of the present article is to provide a theoretical analysis heterogeneous model coupling ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs), providing a local-in-time existence result for the solution. The heteroge ...
In order to better understand the sources of numerical instabilities occurring in the simulation of time-dependent flows of viscoelastic fluids at high Weissenberg numbers, we have used various types of linear stability analyses. In complement to the limit ...
