Direct numerical simulation of matrix diffusion across fracture/matrix interface
Water Science and Engineering, 2013 Accurate descriptions of matrix diffusion across the fracture/matrix interface are critical to assessing contaminant migration in fractured media. The classical transfer probability method is only applicable for relatively large diffusion coefficients ...

Direct numerical simulations of aeolian sand ripples [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Wind ripples decorate the flanks of dunes in amazingly regular patterns, on both Earth and Mars. Their emergence at a wavelength much larger than the grain size is currently unexplained. We report direct numerical simulations of grains interacting with a wind flow that are, for the first time to our knowledge, able to reproduce ...

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent flow above zigzag riblets
AIP Advances, 2018 We investigate the drag-reducing performance of a zigzag riblet inspired by the “Miura fold” and its influence on the streamwise vortices above a wall-bounded turbulent flow through direct numerical simulations of channel flows. The employed channel wall

Optimal Taylor–Couette flow: direct numerical simulations [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2013 AbstractWe numerically simulate turbulent Taylor–Couette flow for independently rotating inner and outer cylinders, focusing on the analogy with turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard flow. Reynolds numbers of $R{e}_{i} = 8\times 1{0}^{3} $ and $R{e}_{o} = \pm 4\times 1{0}^{3} $ of the inner and outer cylinders, respectively, are reached, corresponding to Taylor ...

Direct numerical simulation of supercritical annular electroconvection [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2007 We use direct numerical simulation to study electrically driven convection in an annular thin film. The simulation models a laboratory experiment that consists of a weakly conducting, submicron thick liquid crystal film suspended between two concentric electrodes. The film is driven to convect by imposing a sufficiently large voltage across it.

DNS and LES for Simulating Stratocumulus: Better Together
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2018 We argue that combining direct numerical simulation (DNS) with large‐eddy simulation (LES) and field studies could accelerate current lines of stratocumulus research.

Direct numerical simulation of solidification with effects of density difference
Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2016 In this paper, direct numerical simulations are presented for solidification with the effects of density difference between the solid and liquid phases. A front-tracking method is used. The solidification front, i.e.
