An octree-based adaptive semi-Lagrangian VOF approach for simulating the displacement of free surfaces

Marco Picasso, Gilles Steiner, Viljami Henrikki Laurmaa

A numerical method based on an adaptive octree space discretization for the simulation of displacement of free surfaces is proposed and applied to 3D free surface flow problems. A VOF approach is combined with a mass-conserving semi-Lagrangian time-steppin ...

From the free surface flow of a viscoelastic fluid towards the elastic deformation of a solid

Marco Picasso

The free surface flow of an Oldroyd-B viscoelastic fluid is considered, following A. Bonito, M. Picasso, and M. Laso (2006)[1]. When removing a term in the extra-stress constitutive relation, the description of an elastic incompressible solid is obtained, ...

An anisotropic adaptive finite element algorithm for transonic viscous flows around a wing

Marco Picasso, Wissam Hassan

An adaptive finite element algorithm to compute transonic viscous flows around a wing is presented. The adaptive criteria is based on an anisotropic error estimator in the 115 semi-norm, justified for an advection-diffusion problem with stabilized finite e ...

The High-Resolution Magnetic Camera: A Novel Sensor for Eddy Current Testing

Roland Moser, Hannes Bleuler, Marco Picasso, Pavel Kejik, Gilles Raphaël Santi, David Florian Hippert

Eddy current techniques are often used to detect and, in some advanced applications, to characterize fatigue surface-breaking cracks appearing in mechanical parts. One of the major difficulties in this approach is to reliably separate the crack contributio ...

Characterization of Surface Cracks Through The Local Magnetic Field Induced by Eddy Currents

Roland Moser, Hannes Bleuler, Marco Picasso, Pavel Kejik, Gilles Raphaël Santi, David Florian Hippert

It is important to reliably characterize cracks in metallic mechanical parts in order to assess the serenity of damage due to fatigue. The most important parameter for this is the crack depth. This is notoriously difficult with standard Eddy current techni ...

Bedrock topography reconstruction of glaciers from surface topography and mass-balance data

Marco Picasso, Martin Funk, Heinz Blatter, Laurent Michel

Three methods based on the three-dimensional shallow ice approximation of glacier flow are devised that infer a glacier's subglacial topography from the observation of its time-evolving surface and mass balance. The quasi-stationary inverse method relying ...

Numerical simulation of 3D free surface flows, with multiple incompressible immiscible phases. Applications to impulse waves

Alexandre Caboussat, Marco Picasso

A numerical method for the solution to the density-dependent incompressible Navier-Stokes equations modeling the flow of N immiscible incompressible liquid phases with a free surface is proposed. It allows to model the flow of an arbitrary number of liquid ...

Marco Picasso, Martin Funk, Heinz Blatter, Laurent Michel

We present a shape optimization algorithm to estimate the ice thickness distribution within a two-dimensional, non-sliding mountain glacier, given a transient surface geometry and a mass-balance distribution. The approach is based on the minimization of th ...
