Water Science and Engineering, 2011 In meandering rivers, the flow pattern is highly complex, with specific characteristics at bends that are not observed along straight paths. A numerical model can be effectively used to predict such flow fields. Since river bends are not uniform-some are

Mean flow of turbulent–laminar patterns in plane Couette flow [PDF]
, 2007 A turbulent–laminar banded pattern in plane Couette flow is studied numerically. This pattern is statistically steady, is oriented obliquely to the streamwise direction, and has a very large wavelength relative to the gap. The mean flow, averaged in time

Gas-Liquid Flow and Coalescence Characteristics of Bubbles in Expansion Microchannel [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2023 The flow behavior of bubbles in the expansion of the microchannel is studied. Four stable flow patterns are observed: Double-Layer-Bubble Coalescence (DLBC), Hamburger-Double-Layer-Bubble Coalescence (HDLBC), Hamburger Flow Coalescence (HFC), and Non ...

Characteristics of solar meridional flows during solar cycle 23 [PDF]
, 2010 We have analyzed available full-disc data from the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on board SoHO using the "ring diagram" technique to determine the behavior of solar meridional flows over solar cycle 23 in the outer 2% of the solar radius.
