Use of Stochastic Turbulence Models in Jet Acoustics

There are many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows.  In hybrid methods, the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far-field calculations.  To have an initial and quick estimation of the sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations.   In this paper, ...

A review of dough rheological models used in numerical applications

The motivation for this work is to propose a first thorough review of dough rheological models used in numerical applications. Although many models have been developed to describe dough rheological characteristics, few of them are employed by researchers in numerical applications. This article reviews them in detail and attempts to provide new insight into the use of dough rheological models.

Nonsmooth Nonlinearities in Applications from Hydrology

Kavanagh, Kathleen Rose. Nonsmooth Nonlinearities in Applications From Hydrology. (Under the direction of C.T. Kelley) This work has two parts; simulation of unsaturated flow and optimization of remediation problems. For the unsaturated flow simulation, we propose an adaptive time stepping scheme based on error control for Richards’ equation, a model for flow in unsaturated porous media. The mo...
