Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation is a powerful tool in the design and implementation of microfluidic systems, especially for systems that involve hydrodynamic behavior of objects such as functionalized microspheres, biological cells, or biopolymers in complex structures. In this work, we investigate hydrodynamic trapping of microspheres in a novel microfluidic particle-trap array de...

This article describes the design, modeling and identification of the main hydrodynamic parameters of an underwater glider vehicle is presented. The equations describing the dynamics of the vehicle is obtained from the Euler-Lagrange method. The main hydrodynamic parameters were obtained considering the geometry of the vehicle and its operating characteristics. Finally, simulation open loop sys...

Simulation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) raw signal pertaining to an ocean scene is presented. It embodies the distributed surface model, the hydrodynamic modulation, and the Bragg dominant scattering mechanism. Simulation experiments are provided.

A particle-dynamics simulation is a tool for investigating nonequilibrium phenomena accompanied with hydrodynamic, thermodynamic motions, and even with phase transitions. In this article, several applications of the particledynamics simulation and a new computational method of particle dynamics are reported.

In Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, debris entrained within the incoming tsunami waves was responsible for widespread infrastructure damage (Chock et al., 2011). The presence inundating wave needs to be taken into consideration; however, few methodologies and tools exist estimate hazards. Therefore, one option evaluate behavior drifting is using numerical models. Currently, particle method,...
