SUPHRE: A Reactive Transport Model With Unsaturated and Density-Dependent Flow

Although unsaturated and density-dependent flow affect solute fate in groundwater, they are rarely both included in reactive transport models. Using the operator-splitting method, a new reactive transport model (SUPHRE) was developed by combining a variabl ...

Space-time statistics of a linear dynamical energy cascade model dagger

Alfio Quarteroni

A linear dynamical model for the development of the turbulent energy cascade was introduced in Apolina ' rio et al. (J. Stat. Phys., 186, 15 (2022)). This partial differential equation, randomly stirred by a forcing term which is smooth in space and delta- ...

Design and computational optimization of compliance-matching aortic grafts

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Vasiliki Bikia, Georgios Rovas

Introduction: Synthetic vascular grafts have been widely used in clinical practice for aortic replacement surgery. Despite their high rates of surgical success, they remain significantly less compliant than the native aorta, resulting in a phenomenon calle ...

Numerical studies on saturated kink and sawtooth induced fast ion transport in JET ITER-like plasmas

Mario Ludovico Podesta, Matteo Vallar

This presentation examines the energetic particle transport induced by saturated kink modes and sawtooth crashes in JET deuterium plasmas. It is known that kink mode-resonant transport and phase-space redistribution from sawtooth crashes can drive strong f ...

Simulation and experimental study of proton bunch self-modulation in plasma with linear density gradients

Ambrogio Fasoli, Sun Hee Kim, Ivo Furno, Patrick Blanchard, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Alban Sublet, Falk Hans Braunmüller, Christine Stollberg

We present numerical simulations and experimental results of the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in a plasma with linear density gradients along the beam path. Simulation results agree with the experimental results reported [F. Braunmller, T. Nechae ...

Complex Dynamics in Simple Neural Networks: Understanding Gradient Flow in Phase Retrieval

Lenka Zdeborová, Florent Gérard Krzakala

Despite the widespread use of gradient-based algorithms for optimizing high-dimensional non-convex functions, understanding their ability of finding good minima instead of being trapped in spurious ones remains to a large extent an open problem. Here we fo ...

GPU-accelerated Pelton turbine simulation using finite volume particle method coupled with linear eddy viscosity models

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Sebastián Camilo Leguizamón Sarmiento, Siamak Alimirzazadeh

The numerical investigation of the unsteady flow patterns around a Pelton bucket can be helpful to improve the overall turbine efficiency by optimizing the bucket design based on identified loss mechanisms. Since the flow is highly turbulent, modeling the ...

A transmurally heterogeneous orthotropic activation model for ventricular contraction and its numerical validation

Luca Barbarotta, Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Dede', Simone Rossi

Models for cardiac mechanics require an activation mechanism properly representing the stress-strain relations in the contracting myocardium. In this paper, we propose a new activation model that accounts for the transmural heterogeneities observed in myoc ...

Reestablishment of a uniform discharge on the Olympic fountain in Lausanne

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Elena Battisacco

Since its inauguration, in 1993, the horizontal weir crest of the Olympic fountain in Lausanne has suffered from differential settlings leading to a difference in level of more than 30 mm. The settling involves a visible non-uniform discharge distribution ...

Boltzmann Transport in Nanostructures as a Friction Effect

Nicola Marzari, Andrea Cepellotti

Surface scattering is the key limiting factor to thermal transport in dielectric crystals as the length scales are reduced or when temperature is lowered. To explain this phenomenon, it is commonly assumed that the mean free paths of heat carriers are boun ...

Evaluation of non-eddy viscosity subgrid-scale models in stratified turbulence using direct numerical simulations

Fernando Porté Agel, Sina Khani

This research studies the performance of eddy and non-eddy viscosity subgrid-scale (SGS) models using direct numerical simulations (DNS) of stratified turbulence. Nonlinear and modulated gradient models, as the two common non-eddy viscosity SGS parameteriz ...

A model for the evaluation of the electric field associated with the lightning-triggering rocket wire and its corona

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Aleksandr Smorgonskii

In this paper, we analyze the electric field at ground level during the first stage of triggered lightning experiments, i.e., during the rocket ascent and prior to the lightning initiation. At distances of some tens of meters from the triggering wire, the ...

Analysis of TBM tunnelling performance in faulted and highly fractured rocks

Erika Paltrinieri

The thesis focuses on the study of the performance of TBMs in highly jointed and faulted rocks. Despite the great production rates recorded in favourable ground conditions, the TBM advance can be significantly slowed down in limiting geological situations ...

Shear velocity estimates in rough-bed open-channel flow

Ulrich Lemmin, Fereshteh Bagherimiyab Hunkeler

Shear velocity u(*) is an important parameter in geophysical flows, in particular with respect to sediment transport dynamics. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of applying five standard methods [the logarithmic mean velocity profile, the Reyno ...

Generalized Flows Satisfying Spatial Boundary Conditions

Boris Buffoni

In a region D in R-2 or R-3, the classical Euler equation for the regular motion of an inviscid and incompressible fluid of constant density is given by partial derivative(t)v + (v . del(x))v = -del(xP), div(x)v = 0, where v(t, x) is the velocity of the pa ...
