Theory of Stellar Population Synthesis with an application to N-Body simulations

open access: yes, 2012
Aims. We present here a new theoretical approach to population synthesis. The aim is to predict colour magnitude diagrams (CMDs) for huge numbers of stars. With this method we generate synthetic CMDs for N-body simulations of galaxies.

SPH-based modeling of a direct-drive WEC in extreme waves and currents

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
In this work, we present a fully Lagrangian framework specifically tailored to host point absorber WECs under violent wave–current excitations.

SPH-integrated chamber model applied to floating OWC devices: 2-D and 3-D analysis

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
In this work, we present the implementation and validation of an analytical chamber model, coupled to a single-phase Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) approach, to mimic the pneumatic power take-off (PTO) characterizing an Oscillating Water Column ...

Three dimensional numerical modelling of full-scale hydraulic structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This study presents the three-dimensional (3D) hydraulic modelling of free surface flows over complex full-scale hydraulic structures. The work outlined therein forms part of a larger ongoing project which focuses on the assessment of the capabilities of

Hydraulic Design Optimization of a Multi-Stage Overtopping Wave Energy Converter Using WCSPH Methodology Under Site-Specific Wave Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
In multi-level overtopping wave energy converters (OWEC), the inlet slot governs overtopping losses and the distribution of inflow among reservoirs, making it a critical design feature for maximizing hydraulic efficiency.

Flow in Pelton turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The flow in Pelton turbines is subsonic, turbulent, multiphase (water, air, and water vapor from cavitation), has high speeds, sharp gradients, free surface and dynamic boundary conditions.

Composite modelling of the effect of the water body geometry on landslide-tsunamis [PDF]

open access: yes
Subaerial landslide-tsunamis (impulse waves) are generated by mass movements such as landslides, rock falls or glacier calving interacting with a water body. Preliminary landslide-tsunami hazard assessment is commonly based on empirical equations derived
