Simulation of shear-driven flows

Roland Bouffanais

The research work reported in the present dissertation is aimed at the analysis of complex physical phenomena involving instabilities and nonlinearities occurring in fluids through state-of-the-art numerical modeling. Solutions of intricate fluid physics p ...

Reduced Navier-Stokes equations near a flow boundary

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

We derive a hierarchy of PDEs for the leading-order evolution of wall-based quantities, such as the-skin-friction and the wall-pressure gradient, in two-dimensional fluid flows. The resulting Reduced Navier-Stokes (RNS) equations are defined on the boundar ...

A level set discontinuous Galerkin method for free surface flows

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

We present a discontinuous Galerkin method on a fully unstructured grid for the modeling of unsteady incompressible fluid flows with free surfaces. The surface is modeled by embedding and represented by a level set. We discuss the discretization of the flo ...

Simulation numérique des phénomènes thermiques et magnétohydrodynamiques dans une cellule de Hall-Héroult

Yasser Safa

This work is concerned with a numerical simulation of the thermal behaviour of an electrolysis cell for the production of the aluminium. Aluminium is produced by an electrolytic reduction of alumina dissolved in a bath of molten cryolite. In this reduction ...

Computational fluid dynamics for naval engineering problems

Nicola Parolini

The subject of this thesis is the numerical simulation of viscous free-surface flows in naval engineering applications. State-of-the-art numerical methods based on the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations are used to predict the flow around different cl ...

Numerical analysis of axisymmetric flows and methods for fluid-structure interaction arising in blood flow simulation

Simone Deparis

In this thesis we propose and analyze the numerical methods for the approximation of axisymmetric flows as well as algorithms suitable for the solution of fluid-structure interaction problems. Our investigation is aimed at, but are not restricted to, the s ...

Flow and turbulence in sharp open-channel bends

Koen Blanckaert

The sustainable development of rivers requires a knowledge on the three-dimensional mean flow field and the turbulence in complex morphologies. In a future, the computational capacity will be sufficient to simulate numerically the fine details of the flow. ...

Mathematical modelling of the cardiovascular system

Alfio Quarteroni

The author discusses the development of mathematical models for the flow of blood in the human circulatory system. By necessity, such a model of a living system must include several simplifications, ignore some factors, and make several assumptions. This i ...

Parallel computation and analysis of the flow in a static mixer

Mark Sawley

The use of a high-performance parallel computer system has been investigated to compute the incompressible flow and mixing efficiency of a static mixer. The flow computation is performed using a conventional Eulerian approach, by resolving the governing fl ...

Simulation of benchmark and industrial unsteady compressible turbulent fluid flows

Michele Mossi

Large-eddy simulation (LES) is a very promising technique for the numerical computation of unsteady turbulent flows, and seems to be the perfect tool to simulate the compressible air flow around a high-speed train in a tunnel, providing unsteady results fo ...
