Deformation of a soft helical filament in an axial flow at low Reynolds number

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

We perform a numerical investigation of the deformation of a rotating helical filament subjected to an axial flow, under low Reynolds number conditions, motivated by the propulsion of bacteria using helical flagella. Given its slenderness, the helical rod ...

Approximation numérique des écoulements turbulents dans des cuves d'électrolyse de l'aluminium

Jonathan Rochat

Aluminium is a metal extracted from bauxite ore using electrolysis process in cells of big size. A huge electric current goes in the cell through an electrolytic bath and aluminium liquid. These currents generate strong magnetic forces that allow the bath ...

An adjoint-based approach to the optimal control of separated flows

Edouard Boujo

Flow separation is relevant to many industrial applications, since it is detrimental to the aerodynamic performance of vehicles, induces vibrations in mechanical structures, but can also contribute to improve mixing in combustion devices. In this thesis, t ...

Two-phase air-water flows: Scale effects in physical modelling

Michael Pfister

Physical modeling represents probably the oldest design tool in hydraulic engineering together with analytical approaches. In free surface flows, the similitude based upon a Froude similarity allows for a correct representation of the dominant forces, name ...

A model for entrainment in avalanches and debris flows based on PIV measurements of viscous gravity currents.

Christophe Ancey, Belinda Margaret Bates

A simple experiment, designed to investigate entrainment in geophysical free-surface flows such as avalanches and debris flows, was performed using a dam break of viscous fluid which travels over a rigid bed until meeting a shallow layer of the same fluid ...

We use adjoint-based gradients to analyze the sensitivity of the drag force on a square cylinder. At Re = 40, the flow settles down to a steady state. The quantity of interest in the adjoint formulation is the steady asymptotic value of drag reached after ...

In this paper we review and we extend the reduced basis approximation and a posteriori error estimation for steady Stokes flows in affinely parametrized geometries, focusing on the role played by the Brezzi's and Babuska's stability constants. The crucial ...

Shape optimization for viscous flows by reduced basis methods and free-form deformation

Alfio Quarteroni, Gianluigi Rozza, Andrea Manzoni

In this paper we further develop an approach previously introduced in [Lassila and Rozza, C.M.A.M.E 2010] for shape optimization that combines a suitable low-dimensional parametrization of the geometry (yielding a geometrical reduction) with reduced basis ...

The onset of dynamic stall revisited

Karen Ann J Mulleners

Dynamic stall on a helicopter rotor blade comprises a series of complex aerodynamic phenomena in response to the unsteady change of the blade's angle of attack. It is accompanied by a lift overshoot and delayed massive flow separation with respect to stati ...

Model reduction techniques for fast blood flow simulation in parametrized geometries

Alfio Quarteroni, Gianluigi Rozza, Andrea Manzoni

In this paper we propose a new model reduction technique aimed at real-time blood flow simulations on a given family of geometrical shapes of arterial vessels. Our approach is based on the combination of a low-dimensional shape parametrization of the compu ...
