Multiple spatial scales in engineering and atmospheric low Mach number flows

Rupert Klein (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

The first part of this paper reviews the single time scale/multiple length scale low Mach number asymptotic analysis by Klein (1995, 2004). This theory explicitly reveals the interaction of small scale, quasi-incompressible variable density flows with long wave linear acoustic modes through baroclinic vorticity generation and asymptotic accumulation of large scale energy fluxes. The theory is motivated by examples from thermoacoustics and combustion. In an almost obvious way specializations...

Medical image – based computational model of pulsatile flow in saccular aneurisms

Stéphanie Salmon, Marc Thiriet, Jean-Frédéric Gerbeau (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

Saccular aneurisms, swelling of a blood vessel, are investigated in order (i) to estimate the development risk of the wall lesion, before and after intravascular treatment, assuming that the pressure is the major factor, and (ii) to better plan medical interventions. Numerical simulations, using the finite element method, are performed in three-dimensional aneurisms. Computational meshes are derived from medical imaging data to take into account both between-subject and within-subject...

Mathematical modeling and simulation of flow in domains separated by leaky semipermeable membrane including osmotic effect

Jaroslav Hron, Maria Neuss-Radu, Petra Pustějovská (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, we propose a mathematical model for flow and transport processes of diluted solutions in domains separated by a leaky semipermeable membrane. We formulate transmission conditions for the flow and the solute concentration across the membrane which take into account the property of the membrane to partly reject the solute, the accumulation of rejected solute at the membrane, and the influence of the solute concentration on the volume flow, known as osmotic effect. The model...

Modelling of natural convection flows with large temperature differences : a benchmark problem for low Mach number solvers. Part 1. Reference solutions

Patrick Le Quéré, Catherine Weisman, Henri Paillère, Jan Vierendeels, Erik Dick, Roland Becker, Malte Braack, James Locke (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

There are very few reference solutions in the literature on non-Boussinesq natural convection flows. We propose here a test case problem which extends the well-known De Vahl Davis differentially heated square cavity problem to the case of large temperature differences for which the Boussinesq approximation is no longer valid. The paper is split in two parts: in this first part, we propose as yet unpublished reference solutions for cases characterized by a non-dimensional temperature...

Recent developments on wall-bounded turbulence.

Javier Jiménez (2007)

RACSAM

Similarity:

The study of turbulence near walls has experienced a renaissance in the last decade, in part because of the availability of high-quality numerical simulations. The viscous and buffer layers over smooth walls are now fairly well understood. They are essentially independent of the outer flow, and there is a family of numerically-exact nonlinear structures that predict well many of the best-known characteristics of the wall layer, such as the intensity and the spectra of the velocity fluctuations,...
