A unified numerical framework is presented for the modelling of multiphasic viscoelasticand elastic flows. The rheologies considered range from incompressible Newtonian orOldroyd-B viscoelastic fluids to Neo-Hookean elastic solids. The model is formulatedi ...
Understanding the interaction between complicated geophysical flows and barriers remains a critical challenge for hazards countermeasures in engineering design. In this study, the impact of geophysical flows on a rigid barrier is studied numerically using ...
We study the propagation of a plane‐strain hydraulic fracture driven by a shear thinning fluid following a Carreau rheology. We restrict to the impermeable medium case and quantify in details the impact on fracture growth of the shear‐thinning properties o ...
The coalescence of two coplanar fractures growing under the symmetric injection of a Newtonian fluid from two point sources provides a unique data set to validate theoretical predictions of hydraulic fracture (HF) growth. We test the theoretical prediction ...
Multiscale problems, such as modelling flows through porous media or predicting the mechanical properties of composite materials, are of great interest in many scientific areas. Analytical models describing these phenomena are rarely available, and one mus ...
We present a novel method named truncated hierarchical unstructured splines (THU-splines) that supports both local h-refinement and unstructured quadrilateral meshes. In a THU-spline construction, an unstructured quadrilateral mesh is taken as the input co ...
We propose and numerically assess three segregated ( partitioned) algorithms for the numerical solution of the coupled electromechanics problem for the left human ventricle. We split the coupled problem into its core mathematical models and we proceed to t ...
Accretion disks surrounding compact objects, and other environmental factors, deviate satellites from geodetic motion. Unfortunately, setting up the equations of motion for such relativistic trajectories is not as simple as in Newtonian mechanics. The prin ...
This thesis is devoted to the derivation of a posteriori error estimates for the numerical approximation of fluids flows separated by a free surface. Based on these estimates, error indicators are introduced and adaptive algorithms are proposed to solve th ...
The experimental and numerical investigation presented by Bertsch et al. (Phys. Rev. Fluids, vol. 5, 2020a, p. 054202) describes the self-sustained oscillations induced by the interaction of two impinging jets in microfluidic devices. While the oscillatory ...
