Convection of snow: when and why does it happen?

Convection of water vapor in snowpacks is supposed to have a major impact on snow density and microstructure profiles with strong implications for the thermal regime and snow stability. However, the process has never been directly measured and only recentl ...

Analysis and modelling of momentum transport based on NBI modulation experiments at ASDEX Upgrade

Basil Duval, Emiliano Fable

The prediction of plasma rotation is of high interest for fusion research due to the effects of the rotation upon magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities, impurities, and turbulent transport in general. In this work, an analysis method was studied and vali ...

Blow-up, partial regularity and turbulence in incompressible fluid dynamics

Silja Noëmi Aline Haffter

Weak solutions arise naturally in the study of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations both from an abstract regularity/blow-up perspective and from physical theories of turbulence. This thesis studies the structure and size of singular set of such weak solu ...

Efficient equilibrium-based stress recovery for isogeometric laminated curved structures

Pablo Antolin Sanchez

This work extends the stress recovery for laminated composite solid plates, proposed in [1,2], to curved structures. Based on 3D Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) computations and equilibrium, this procedure uses a single element through the thickness in combina ...

Evidence of Strong Flux Underestimation by Bulk Parametrizations During Drifting and Blowing Snow

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Varun Sharma, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Francesco Comola, Armin Sigmund, Daniela Brito Melo

The influence of drifting and blowing snow on surface mass and energy exchange is difficult to quantify due to limitations in both measurements and models, but is still potentially very important over large areas with seasonal or perennial snow cover. We p ...

Continuously-fed density currents over impermeable and porous substrates

Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are buoyancy-driven flows having a significant impact on the environment and human life. They can be observed in a vast range of natural and anthropogenic scenarios, such as seawater and freshwater, the atmosphere, or industrial processes. ...

Regularity In Time Of Holder Solutions Of Euler And Hypodissipative Navier-Stokes Equations

Maria Colombo, Luigi De Rosa

In this work we investigate some regularization properties of the incompressible Euler equations and of the fractional Navier-Stokes equations where the dissipative term is given by (-Delta)(alpha) for a suitable power alpha is an element of (0, 1/2) (the ...

Stationary Structures near the Kolmogorov and Poiseuille Flows in the 2d Euler Equations

Klaus Martin Widmayer

We study the behavior of solutions to the incompressible 2d Euler equations near two canonical shear flows with critical points, the Kolmogorov and Poiseuille flows, with consequences for the associated Navier-Stokes problems. We exhibit a large family of ...

Preferential Deposition of Snow and Dust Over Hills: Governing Processes and Relevant Scales

Marc Parlange, Michael Lehning, Marco Giovanni Giometto, Francesco Comola

Preferential deposition of snow and dust over complex terrain is responsible for a wide range of environmental processes and accounts for a significant source of uncertainty in the surface mass balances of cold and arid regions. Despite the growing body of ...

Analysis of morphological and haemodynamical indexes in abdominal aortic aneurysms as preliminary indicators of intraluminal thrombus deposition

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Claudia Maria Colciago

In this paper we study the correlation between the Wall Shear Stress (WSS), a haemodynamical index derived from numerical simulations, and an new index MFA-ILT for the characterisation of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) in presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

Depth-averaged momentum equation for gravity currents with varying density: coefficient in pressure term

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are often modelled by means of shallow water equations (SWEs). In these models, simplifications such as the consideration of a constant layer-averaged density are common. This note presents the complete and general derivation of a 2D depth ...

A posteriori error estimation for the steady Navier-Stokes equations in random domains

Fabio Nobile, Marco Picasso, Diane Sylvie Guignard

We consider finite element error approximations of the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations defined on a randomly perturbed domain, the perturbation being small. Introducing a random mapping, these equations are transformed into PDEs on a fixed re ...

Molecular dynamics at constant Cauchy stress

Fabio Pavia

The Parrinello-Rahman algorithm for imposing a general state of stress in periodic molecular dynamics simulations is widely used in the literature and has been implemented in many readily available molecular dynamics codes. However, what is often overlooke ...

An overview of some recent results on the Euler system of isentropic gas dynamics

Elisabetta Chiodaroli

This overview is concerned with the well-posedness problem for the isentropic compressible Euler equations of gas dynamics. The results we present are in line with the programof investigatingthe efficiency of different selection criteria proposed in the li ...

Adapting tilt corrections and the governing flow equations for steep, fully three-dimensional, mountainous terrain

Marc Parlange, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Eric Richard Pardyjak, Holly Jayne Oldroyd

In recent studies of atmospheric turbulent surface exchange in complex terrain, questions arise concerning velocity-sensor tilt corrections and the governing flow equations for coordinate systems aligned with steep slopes. The standard planar-fit method, a ...

Large-Reynolds-number asymptotics of the streamwise normal stress in zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers

Peter Monkewitz

A more poetic long title could be 'A voyage from the shifting grounds of existing data on zero-pressure-gradient (abbreviated ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (abbreviated TBLs) to infinite Reynolds number'. Aided by the requirement of consistency with the R ...

Multiscale homogenization for fluid and drug transport in vascularized malignant tissues

Alfio Quarteroni

A system of differential equations for coupled fluid and drug transport in vascularized (malignant) tissues is derived by a multiscale expansion. We start from mass and momentum balance equations, stated in the physical domain, geometrically characterized ...
