Abstract Microalgae are emerging as an important renewable and sustainable source of high-value biomolecules having applications in food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, agrochemicals fuel industries. Deriving from micro-algae however faces numerous process technological challenges. It is essential to develop innovative ways intensifying processes used for valorising microalgae. Hydrodynamic cavitat...

Violent fluid motions, high speed marine vehicles and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are selected as main topics. Violent fluid motions deal with green water on deck, sloshing and slamming. Slamming involves many physical effects. When analyzing slamming, one must always have the structural reaction in mind. This necessitates that hydroelastic effects are considered. Many hydrodynamic pheno...

We present the first fully kinetic Vlasov-Fokker-Planck simulations of nanosecond laser-plasma interactions including self-consistent magnetic fields and hydrodynamic plasma expansion. For the largest magnetic fields externally applied to long-pulse laser-gas-jet experiments (12 T) a significant degree of cavitation of the B field (>40%) will be shown to occur from the laser-heated region in un...

Tip vortex cavitation is one of the most classical themes in fluid mechanics. Although many experimental and theoretical studies have been performed, unsolved problems still remain. In particular, trailing vortices at tip hydrofoil directly affects hydrodynamic acoustic performance submerged objects such as marine propeller, rudder various foil-shaped appendages ship. this study, results from m...
