Instability and trajectories of buoyancy-driven annular disks: A numerical study

We investigate the stability of the steady vertical path and the emerging trajectories of a buoyancy -driven annular disk as the diameter of its central hole is varied. The steady and axisymmetric wake associated with the steady vertical path of the disk, ...

Large-scale in-silico analysis of CSF dynamics within the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve

Gilles Fourestey

BackgroundImpaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics is involved in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system and the optic nerve (ON), including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, as well as frontotemporal dementia ...

Adaptive Symplectic Model Order Reduction Of Parametric Particle-Based Vlasov-Poisson Equation

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini, Nicolò Ripamonti

. High-resolution simulations of particle-based kinetic plasma models typically require a high number of particles and thus often become computationally intractable. This is exacerbated in multi-query simulations, where the problem depends on a set of para ...

Secondary structure of the human mitochondrial genome affects formation of deletions

Jacques Fellay, Konstantin Popadin

BackgroundAging in postmitotic tissues is associated with clonal expansion of somatic mitochondrial deletions, the origin of which is not well understood. Such deletions are often flanked by direct nucleotide repeats, but this alone does not fully explain ...

Numerical study on the scale effect of tip vortex cavitation induced by incoming velocities and scale ratios

Mohamed Farhat

Large eddy simulations of tip vortex cavitation (TVC) around an elliptical hydrofoil is performed to study its scale effect. A satisfying agreement is obtained between the numerical and experimental data. It indicates that the scale effect of TVC is remark ...

A Fast Hybrid Pressure-Correction Algorithm for Simulating Incompressible Flows by Projection Methods

Jiannong Fang

To enforce the conservation of mass principle, a pressure Poisson equation arises in the numerical solution of incompressible fluid flow using the pressure-based segregated algorithms such as projection methods. For unsteady flows, the pressure Poisson equ ...

Visualization and modelling of dynamic flow in fibrous preforms for liquid composite molding

Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Nowadays, Liquid Composite Molding techniques are often used to manufacture high quality fiber reinforced composite parts at a relatively low cost. These involve an infiltration process, in which a liquid resin is forced to ingress into a dry fibrous porou ...

UAV in the advent of the twenties: Where we stand and what is next

Jan Skaloud, Davide Antonio Cucci

The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has surged in the last two decades, making them popular instruments for a wide range of applications, and leading to a remarkable number of scientific contributions in geoscience, remote sensing and engineering. H ...

Robust design using multiobjective optimisation and artificial neural networks with application to a heat pump radial compressor

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Soheyl Massoudi, Cyril Picard

Although robustness is an important consideration to guarantee the performance of designs under deviation, systems are often engineered by evaluating their performance exclusively at nominal conditions. Robustness is sometimes evaluated a posteriori throug ...

Experimental quantification of unsteady leading-edge flow separation

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Julien Dominique Claude Deparday

We propose here a method to experimentally quantify unsteady leading-edge flow separation on aerofoils with finite thickness. The methodology relies on the computation of a leading-edge suction parameter based on measured values of the partial circulation ...

Data-based model maintenance in the era of industry 4.0: A methodology

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos

Despite the high number of investments for data-based models in the expansion of Industry 4.0, too little effort has been made to ensure the maintenance of those models. In a data-streaming environment, data-based models are subject to concept drifts. A co ...

Quantifying the transition of impact mechanisms of geophysical flows against flexible barrier

Xingyue Li

Flexible barriers have been increasingly used worldwide for mitigating natural hazards involving various geophysical flows. The analysis and design of flexible barriers need to distinguish two major impact mechanisms, runup and pile-up, which remain poorly ...

Directional Cross-Correlation for Improved Aberration Phase Estimation in Pulse-Echo Speed-of-Sound Imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Samuel Denys Beuret, Simon Canales

There has been a recent surge in methods targeting the recovery of a speed-of-sound map from pulse-echo ultrasound measurements. We focused in this work on a particular technique and identified a drawback shared by similar methods - namely the necessity of ...

Scaling of the translational velocity of vortex rings behind conical objects

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Guillaume de Guyon-Crozier

Ring vortices are efficient at transporting fluid across long distances. They can be found in nature in various ways: they propel squids, inject blood in the heart, and entertain dolphins. These vortices are generally produced by ejecting a volume of fluid ...

Counting using deep learning regression gives value to ecological surveys

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger

Many ecological studies rely on count data and involve manual counting of objects of interest, which is time-consuming and especially disadvantageous when time in the field or lab is limited. However, an increasing number of works uses digital imagery, whi ...

Large particle segregation in two-dimensional sheared granular flows

Christophe Ancey, Tomás Alfredo Trewhela Palacios

We studied the segregation of single large intruder particles in monodisperse granular materials. Experiments were carried out in a two-dimensional shear cell using different intruder and media diameters, whose quotient defined a size ratio R that ranged f ...

Forces on buildings with openings and orientation in a steady post-tsunami free-surface flow

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Steady free-surface flows around buildings occurring during flood or tsunami events can produce major damages and a quantification of the post-peak forces is essential for safety and resilience of coastal structures. The loading process is highly affected ...

Analysis of volumetric mass transfer coefficient (k(L)a) in small- (250 mL) to large-scale (2500 L) orbitally shaken bioreactors

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker

In this study, the combination of dimensional analysis (DA) and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to predict the volumetric mass transfer coefficient (k(L)a) values under different operating conditions for orbitally shaken bioreactors (OSRs) with diffe ...

The Role of Reynolds Number Effect and Tip Leakage in Compressor Geometry Scaling at Low Turbulent Reynolds Numbers

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Markus Diehl, Christoph Schreiber

In compressor design, a convenient way to save time is to scale an existing geometry to required specifications, rather than developing a new design. The approach works well when scaling compressors of similar size at high Reynolds numbers but becomes more ...
