Nonlinear vibration of a three-dimensional moving gantry crane carrying a trolley hoisting a swinging object is studied in this paper. A finite element method is used to solve nonlinear coupled governing equations of the structure. A combinational techniqu ...
The present work is aimed at studying the effect of solidification rate on reinforcement clustering in particle reinforced metal matrix composites (PMMCs) through numerical simulations and experimental studies. A macrotransport-solidification kinetics (MTS ...
We study the relaxations, surface energies, and work functions of low-index metallic surfaces using pseudopotential plane-wave density-functional calculations within the generalized gradient approximation. We study here the (100), (110), and (111) surfaces ...
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 ...
Numerical simulations of water entries based on a three-dimensional parallelized Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) model developed by Ecole Centrale Nantes are presented. The aim of the paper is to show how such SPH simulations of complex 3D problems i ...
The paper describes and compares the performance of two options for numerically representing the surface tension force in combination with the level set interface-tracking method. In both models, the surface tension is represented as a body force, concentr ...
Diffusion-limited reactions are commonly found in biochemical processes such as enzyme catalysis, colloid and protein aggregation and binding between different macromolecules in cells. Usually, such reactions are modeled within the Smoluchowski framework b ...
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 ...
Centrifugal pumps are required to sustain a stable operation of the system they support under all operating conditions. Minor modifications of the surfaces defining the pump's water passage can influence the tendency to unstable system operation significan ...
Transport of fluid in and around nanometer-sized objects with at least one characteristic dimension below 100 nm renders possible phenomena that are not accessible at bigger length scales. This research field is termed nanofluidics and received its name on ...
