Comprehensive Dem-dpm-cfd Simulations - Model Synthesis, Experimental Validation and Scalability
We report on the synthesis of the Discrete Element Method (DEM) modelling the behaviour of granular materials and a finite volume model for the continuous interstitial fluid using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). DEM captures the physics of granular materials best but is computationally time-consuming. For this reason, the DEM is complemented by a Discrete Phase Model (DPM) for disperse gran...
متن کاملExperimental Validation of Dynamic Fragmentation Simulations
Large scale simulations using cohesive zone interfacial elements were used to understand features such as penetration and deflection of crack during the process of interaction of mode-I crack with inclined interfaces. To perform these simulations, two set of inputs are necessary. The first one is to provide valid loading boundary conditions and the second one is to incorporate accurate cohesive...
متن کاملSimulations of droplet coalescence in simple shear flow.
Simulating droplet coalescence is challenging because small-scale (tens of nanometers) phenomena determine the behavior of much larger (micrometer- to millimeter-scale) droplets. In general, liquid droplets colliding in a liquid medium coalesce when the capillary number is less than a critical value. We present simulations of droplet collisions and coalescence in simple shear flow using the fre...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Discrete Element Simulations of Direct Shear Tests
Using discrete element methods, geotechnical engineers can create “virtual laboratories” to simulate conventional laboratory tests. In this study, three-dimensional DEM simulations of direct shear tests are coupled with equivalent physical tests on steel balls. The macro-scale response of simulations is compared with the physical test results to validate the discrete element model and to gain i...
متن کامل3D simulations of shear instabilities in magnetized flows
We present results of three-dimensional (3D) simulations of the magnetohydrodynamic Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in a stratified shear layer. The magnetic field is taken to be uniform and parallel to the shear flow. We describe the evolution of the fluid flow and the magnetic field for a range of initial conditions. In particular, we investigate how the mixing rate of the fluid depends on the R...
