Composite materials undoubtedly belong to one of the most studied classes of materials nowadays. In order to model the behaviour of mechanical structures made of this type of materials, it is necessary to know their constitutive properties. The varieties o ...
This work presents a numerical model able to simulate the effect of biomass growth on the hydraulic properties of saturated porous media, i.e., bioclogging. A new module for an existing coupled flow and reactive-transport code -- PHWAT -- was implemented. ...
This paper presents methods for the parameter identification of a model of subtilin production by Bacillus subtilis. Based on a stochastic hybrid model, identification is split in two subproblems: estimation of the genetic network regulating subtilin produ ...
To evaluate the bootstrap current in nonaxisymmetric toroidal plasmas quantitatively, a deltaf Monte Carlo method is incorporated into the moment approach. From the drift-kinetic equation with the pitch-angle scattering collision operator, the bootstrap cu ...
With the development of numerical tools used to simulate fluid-structure interactions phenomena, investigations on hydrodynamic damping are now more accessible and the studied cases are more flexible. The aim of the present study is, at first, to analyze t ...
Large-eddy simulation (LES) of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flow is performed over a homogeneous surface with different heat flux forcings. The goal is to test the performance of dynamic subgrid-scale models in a numerical framework and to compare the ...
In the past few years, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has become an essential tool in the design and optimization of racing sailboats and in particular America's Cup yachts. The prevalent role of CFD in the design process is demonstrated by the number ...

Mathematical and numerical aspects of viscoelastic flows are investigated here. Two simplified mathematical models are considered. They are motivated by a splitting algorithm for solving viscoelastic flows with free surfaces. The first model is a simplifie ...
Dam-break floods on steep slopes occur in diverse settings. They may result from failure of either natural or man-made dams, and they have been responsible for the loss of thousands of lives [Costa, 1988]. Recent disasters resulting from dam-break floods o ...
