On fully developed flows of fluids with a pressure dependent viscosity in a pipe

Macherla Vasudevaiah, Kumbakonam R. Rajagopal (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Stokes recognized that the viscosity of a fluid can depend on the normal stress and that in certain flows such as flows in a pipe or in channels under normal conditions, this dependence can be neglected. However, there are many other flows, which have technological significance, where the dependence of the viscosity on the pressure cannot be neglected. Numerous experimental studies have unequivocally shown that the viscosity depends on the pressure, and that this dependence can be quite...

Computation of the drag force on a sphere close to a wall

David Gérard-Varet, Matthieu Hillairet (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider the effect of surface roughness on solid-solid contact in a Stokes flow. Various models for the roughness are considered, and a unified methodology is given to derive the corresponding asymptotics of the drag force in the close-contact limit. In this way, we recover and clarify the various expressions that can be found in previous studies.

On finite element approximation of flow induced vibration of elastic structure

Valášek, Jan, Sváček, Petr, Horáček, Jaromír

Similarity:

In this paper the fluid-structure interaction problem is studied on a simplified model of the human vocal fold. The problem is mathematically described and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method is applied in order to treat the time dependent computational domain. The viscous incompressible fluid flow and linear elasticity models are considered. The fluid flow and the motion of elastic body is approximated with the aid of finite element method. An attention is paid to the applied stabilization...
