Computational fluctuating fluid dynamics

This paper describes the extension of a recently developed numerical solver for the Landau-Lifshitz Navier-Stokes (LLNS) equations to binary mixtures in three dimensions. The LLNS equations incorporate thermal fluctuations into macroscopic hydrodynamics by using white-noise fluxes. These stochastic PDEs are more complicated in three dimensions due to the tensorial form of the correlations for the stochastic fluxes and in mixtures due to couplings of energy and concentration fluxes (, Soret...

Computer simulation of the atomic behaviour in condensed phases.

Antoni Giró Roca, Joan Angel Padró (1987)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

Molecular dynamics simulation method for the study of condensed phases of matter is described in this paper. Computer programs for the simulation of atomic motion have been developed. Time-saving techniques, like the cellular method have been incorporated in order to optimize the available computer resources. We have applied this method to the simulation of Argon near its melting point. Differences in the structure, thermodynamic properties and time correlation functions of solid and...

On the modeling of the transport of particles in turbulent flows

Thierry Goudon, Frédéric Poupaud (2004)

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

Similarity:

We investigate different asymptotic regimes for Vlasov equations modeling the evolution of a cloud of particles in a turbulent flow. In one case we obtain a convection or a convection-diffusion effective equation on the concentration of particles. In the second case, the effective model relies on a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation.

On the motion of rigid bodies in a viscous fluid

Eduard Feireisl (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider the problem of motion of several rigid bodies in a viscous fluid. Both compressible and incompressible fluids are studied. In both cases, the existence of globally defined weak solutions is established regardless possible collisions of two or more rigid objects.
