A cut-cell method for the numerical simulation of 3D multiphase flows with strong interfacial effects

Marco Picasso, Alexandre Caboussat, Alexandre Masserey, Julien Hess

We present a numerical model for the approximation of multiphase flows with free surfaces and strong interfacial effects. The model relies on the multiphase incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and includes surface tension effects on the interfaces betw ...

Numerical modeling of ground movement above underground salt mines in Tuzla city, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Stefan Marceta

The subsidence occurring in the city of Tuzla in Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) is an important issue which has caused several damages in the past decades. This phenomena is related to the massive extraction of salt and the presence of salt caverns below the ...

Unconfined Plunging of a Hyperpycnal River Plume Over a Sloping Bed and Its Lateral Spreading: Laboratory Experiments and Numerical Modeling

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Koen Blanckaert, Haoran Shi

Hyperpycnal (negatively buoyant) river inflow into lakes and oceans often develops three-dimensional (3D) plunging flow patterns when laterally unconfined. To determine the 3D flow pattern characteristics, laboratory experiments of laterally unconfined plu ...

A new Euler-Lagrangian cavitation model for tip-vortex cavitation with the effect of non-condensable gas

Mohamed Farhat, Huaiyu Cheng

Numerical simulation of tip vortex cavitation (TVC) remains a challenging task in a variety of applica-tions, such as axial turbines and pumps as well as marine propellers. Although it is well known that TVC is highly sensitive to gas content, be it dissol ...

Numerical Model of Rapidly Solidified Droplets of Al-33 Wt Pct Cu Eutectic Growth

Michel Rappaz, Jonas Valloton

Rapid solidification of Al-Cu droplets of eutectic composition was carried out using Impulse Atomization (a type of drop tube). Two distinct morphologies were observed: an irregular undulated eutectic assumed to form during recalescence, followed by a regu ...

Physical and numerical model studies of the Martigny bend as part of 3rd correction of the Rhone River

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Stéphanie Joëlle André, Jean-Noël Saugy

The 3rd correction of the Rhone River (R3) is the largest flood protection project in Switzerland so far. Covering a length of 162 km, it aims to protect some 100,000 people and prevent flood damages, which could raise up to 10 billion CHF for major events ...
