Laboratory experiments on the influence of stratification and a bottom sill on seiche damping [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2021
The damping of water surface standing waves (seiche modes) and the associated excitation of baroclinic internal waves are studied experimentally in a quasi-two-layer laboratory setting with a topographic obstacle at the bottom representing a seabed sill.

Numerical Prediction of Turbulent Spray Flame Characteristics Using the Filtered Eulerian Stochastic Field Approach Coupled to Tabulated Chemistry

Fluids, 2021
The Eulerian stochastic fields (ESF) method, which is based on the transport equation of the joint subgrid scalar probability density function, is applied to Large Eddy Simulation of a turbulent dilute spray flame.

The Drake Passage opening from an experimental fluid dynamics point of view

Scientific Reports, 2021
Pronounced global cooling around the Eocene–Oligocene transition (EOT) was a pivotal event in Earth’s climate history, controversially associated with the opening of the Drake Passage.

Effects of altered streamflow on macroinvertebrate taxonomic richness and composition in the Goulburn River, Australia

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
River systems have been stressed by the construction of dams and regulation structures which influence aquatic ecosystem integrity. Previous studies considered the general significance of regional streamflow regimes for aquatic communities, but they did ...

Evidence of Range Shifts in Riparian Plant Assemblages in Response to Multidecadal Streamflow Declines

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Riparian corridors are thought to form hydrological refugia that may buffer species and communities against regional climate changes. In regions facing a warming and drying climate, however, the hydrological regime driving riparian communities is also ...

Fluid dynamics of COVID-19 airborne infection suggests urgent data for a scientific design of social distancing

Scientific Reports, 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic is largely caused by airborne transmission, a phenomenon that rapidly gained the attention of the scientific community. Social distancing is of paramount importance to limit the spread of the disease, but to design social distancing

Functional Flows in Groundwater-Influenced Streams: Application of the California Environmental Flows Framework to Determine Ecological Flow Needs

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Environmental flows, or the practice of allocating water in river systems for ecological purposes, is a leading strategy for conserving aquatic species and improving river health.

Comparing the force due to the Lennard-Jones potential and the Coulomb force in the SPH Method

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2018
Seventy years after the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method was created, there was the need to use the solid limit to keep the domain particles of a certain region.
