Simulation Analysis of the Effect of Trunk Undulation on Swimming Performance in Underwater Dolphin Kick of Human

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2009
The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of trunk undulation on the swimming performance in underwater dolphin kick, and to clarify the ideal trunk undulation form. The reference swimming motion of an elite swimmer was firstly acquired

Measurements of the Solid-body Rotation of Anisotropic Particles in 3D Turbulence [PDF]

, 2014
We introduce a new method to measure Lagrangian vorticity and the rotational dynamics of anisotropic particles in a turbulent fluid flow. We use 3D printing technology to fabricate crosses (two perpendicular rods) and jacks (three mutually perpendicular ...

Non-Similar Solution of G-jitter Induced Unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic Radiative Slip Flow of Nanofluid

Applied Sciences, 2020
We present a mathematical model and numerical simulation of the unsteady 2-D g-jitter-free and forced the convective flow of water-based nanofluid from a flat plate, considering both the velocity slip and thermal slip conditions imposed on the wall of ...

Activation Energy and Inclination Magnetic Dipole Influences on Carreau Nanofluid Flowing via Cylindrical Channel with an Infinite Shearing Rate

Applied Sciences, 2022
Background: The infinite shear viscosity model of Carreau fluid characterizes the attitude of fluid flow at a very high/very low shear rate. This model has the capacity for interpretation of fluid at both extreme levels, and an inclined magnetic dipole ...

Investigation of evaporation of sessile droplets using luminescent nano-probes and other applications of NV centers in diamond

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
The paper describes application of diamond nano crystals to research on dynamic processes in small (less than 1 mm across) evaporating droplets deposited on a solid substrate. Such droplets are used as a model system for testing proposed bio applications

The biomechanics of atherosclerosis development

Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023
In this paper, we investigate the bio-mechanics of atherosclerosis development in human physiology. Blood is modelled as an incompressible fluid of variable viscosity flowing in a slightly diverging channel (i.e. large artery) of small aspect ratio [15].

Numerical calculations on the flow near the plunging airfoil and relation with the flying or swimming animals, birds, fish and insects

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2015
We investigated the influence of the airfoil geometry on the performance of the plunging airfoil numerically. In the present study, two circular arc airfoils with the different thickness were used and the numerical calculations were carried out within ...

Fluid-structure interaction simulation of prosthetic aortic valves : comparison between immersed boundary and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian techniques for the mesh representation [PDF]

, 2016
In recent years the role of FSI (fluid-structure interaction) simulations in the analysis of the fluid-mechanics of heart valves is becoming more and more important, being able to capture the interaction between the blood and both the surrounding ...
