In the present study, a hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian methodology is utilized for large eddy simulation (LES) of premixed fuel/air flow over a three-dimensional backward facing step (BFS). The fluid dynamic features are obtained by solving the Eulerian filtered compressible transport equations while the species are predicted by using the filtered mass density function method (FMDF).  Some scalar f...

Relative dispersion in fully developed turbulence is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. Lagrangian statistics is found to be compatible with Richardson description although small systematic deviations are found. The value of the Richardson constant is estimated as C2 approximately equal to 0.55, in a close agreement with recent experimental findings [S. Ott and J. Mann, J. F...

To verify this approach, different discretization types mesh sizes were considered computations. Moreover, enhanced comparisons coupled ...

1. Developing a 3D turbulence-resolving numerical model for fine sediment transport in the oscillatory boundary layer in order to understand how turbulencesediment interactions can determine the state of muddy seabed (transport modes). 2. Studying the attenuation of turbulence due to the presence of sediment via the interplay between sediment-induced density stratification and enhanced viscosit...

In this study, Flowfield Dependent Variation (FDV) method is coupled with Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method in order to solve fluid-structure interaction problems. FDV method is a mixed explicit-implicit numerical scheme where its implicitness is determined by several parameters that are dependent on the physical properties of the local flow. The scheme which is called as ALE-FDV metho...

A 2D mathematical model of coupled heat and mass transfer describing oven roasting of meat was formulated from first principles. The current formulation of model equations incorporates the effect of shrinkage phenomena and water holding capacity. The model equations are based on conservation of mass and energy. The pressure driven transport of water in meat is expressed using Darcy’s equation. ...

This work advocates Eulerian motion representation learning over the current standard Lagrangian optical flow model. Eulerian motion is well captured by using phase, as obtained by decomposing the image through a complexsteerable pyramid. We discuss the gain of Eulerian motion in a set of practical use cases: (i) action recognition, (ii) motion prediction in static images, (iii) motion transfer...

In this work we discuss a way to compute the impact of free-surface flow on nonlinear structures. The approach chosen rely on a partitioned strategy that allows to solve strongly coupled fluid-structure interaction problem. It is then possible to re-use existing and validated strategy for each sub-problem. The structure is formulated in a Lagrangian way and solved by the finite element method. ...

The aim of this work is to show how adaptive mesh refinement and Lagrangian tracking can be integrated to enable high-fidelity computations of jet atomization and dispersion for industrially relevant configurations. In its present form, the Coupled Level Set and Volume of Fluid (CLSVOF) method for multiphase flow calculations is embedded in a dynamic, block-structured Adaptive Mesh Refinement (...

We present a new reconnection-based Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method. The main elements in a standard ALE simulation are an explicit Lagrangian phase in which the solution and grid are updated, a rezoning phase in which a new grid is defined, and a remapping phase in which the Lagrangian solution is transferred (conservatively interpolated) onto the new grid. In standard ALE methods t...
