The application of Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier- Stokes (RANS) equations to the design of sailing yachts is becoming more commonplace, particularly for the America's Cup. Drawing on the experience of the Ec ...
In this work, we address the numerical solution of fluid-structure interaction problems. This issue is particularly difficulty to tackle when the fluid and the solid densities are of the same order, for instance as it happens in hemodynamic applications, s ...
The main goal of this article is to establish a priori and a posteriori error estimates for the numerical approximation of some non linear elliptic problems arising in glaciology. The stationary motion of a glacier is given by a non-Newtonian fluid flow mo ...
This paper presents the development of spectral element methods to simulate unsteady flows of viscoelastic fluids using a closed-form differential constitutive equation. The generation and decay Poiseuille planar flows are considered as benchmark problems ...
We investigate adaptive finite element methods for low Mach, steady, laminar combustion. The finite element discretization of the flame equations involves least squares control of streamline derivatives and pressure-velocity coupling as well as a new shock ...
The capability of calculation of non-Newtonian flows: finite elements and stochastic simulation technique (CONNFFESSIT) to compute transient free surface flows is extended to deal with transient viscoelastic flows for domains in which the topology (connect ...
We consider a heterogeneous model for the dynamics of a blood solute both in the vascular lumen and inside the arterial wall. In the lumen, we consider an advection-diffusion equation, where the convective field is provided by the velocity of blood, which ...
In this work, we address the numerical solution of some non-linear problems arising in the time discretization of fluid–structure interaction problems with fully implicit schemes. At each time step, we have to solve a highly non-linear coupled system, sinc ...
The effects and the consequences of transferring the ignition point of the conventional combustion chamber into a small unscavenged prechamber were evaluted through a numerical simulation based on the CFD-code KIVA- 3V. The prechamber flow characteristics ...
Different measurement techniques have demonstrated that due to better alignment during the manufacturing process, the central filaments in multifilamentary Bi-2223 tapes have higher critical current density than the outer filaments. A numerical model of no ...
