We present predictions for the statistical error due to finite sampling in the presence of thermal fluctuations in molecular simulation algorithms. Specifically, we present predictions for the error dependence on hydrodynamic parameters and the number of samples taken. Expressions for the common hydrodynamic variables of interest such as flow velocity, temperature, density, pressure, shear stre...

A general method for computing the hydrodynamic interactions among N suspended particles, under the condition of vanishingly small particle Reynolds number, is presented. The method accounts for both near-field lubrication effects and the dominant many-body interactions. The many-body hydrodynamic interactions reproduce the screening characteristic of porous media and the ‘effective viscosity ’...

The nonlinear and multi-factor-dependent characteristics of the hydrodynamic forces acting on the aft body of a supercavitating vehicle are investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The CFD model of natural supercavitating flow is first verified and validated upon the supercavitating flow around a cavitator in the shape of a circular disk. Then the model is used to simulate the sup...

We use the Brownian dynamics with hydrodynamic interactions simulation in order to describe the movement of an elastically coupled dimer Brownian motor in a ratchet potential. The only external forces considered in our system were the load, the random thermal noise and an unbiased thermal fluctuation. We observe differences in the dynamic behaviour if hydrodynamic interactions are considered as...

Qeshm Channel is a shallow and narrow waterway located between Qeshm Island and the mainland in the vicinity of Hormuzgan Province, Islamic Republic of Iran. This channel is important because of its economic, industrial, fisheries and navigation role it plays as well as environmental issues it presents in the region. A prognostic study was performed to simulate currents in this channel, using C...
