Hamiltonian Fluid Mechanics [PDF]
This paper reviews the relatively recent application of the methods of Hamiltonian mechanics to problems in fluid dynamics. By Hamiltonian mechanics I mean all of what is often called classical mechanics-the subject of the textbooks by Lanczos ( 1970), Goldstein ( 1 980), and Arnol'd (1978).

The Fluid Mechanics of Ureteroscope Irrigation. [PDF]
To develop a physical understanding of ureterorenoscopy irrigation, we derive mathematical models from basic physical principles and compare these predictions with the results of benchtop experiments. Mathematical modeling can be used to understand the role of inlet pressure, tip deflection, the presence of working tools, geometric properties of the ...

The fluid mechanics of poohsticks [PDF]
The year 2019 marked the bicentenary of George Gabriel Stokes, who in 1851 described the drag—Stokes drag—on a body moving immersed in a fluid, and 2020 is the centenary of Christopher Robin Milne, for whom the game of poohsticks was invented; his father A. A. Milne’s The House at Pooh Corner , in which it was first

Thermosuperrepellency of a hot substrate caused by vapour percolation
Droplet impact on surfaces has wide applications regardless of the discipline area and several hypotheses have been put forward to explain the mechanism of film boiling.

Aerodynamics of two parallel bristled wings in low Reynolds number flow
Most of the smallest flying insects use bristled wings. It was observed that during the second half of their upstroke, the left and right wings become parallel and close to each other at the back, and move upward at zero angle of attack.

Production of Micron-Sized Particles of Bauxite by Circulating Pulverization Experiment
A novel process involving the production of micron-sized particles of bauxite by circulating pulverization experiment is proposed. This method is through high-pressure gas infiltration, uniform and equal stress loading, and overcoming tensile strength ...

Evaluation of pressure and species concentration measurement using uncertainty propagation [PDF]
This paper presents a probabilistic uncertainity evaluation method as described in the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurements (GUM) and its application to probe measurements on pressure and fuel concentration. All sources of unceratinties

Bidirectional wave-propelled capillary spinners
When a solid body floats at the interface of a vibrating liquid bath, the motion of the object generates outwardly propagating surface waves. We here demonstrate that chiral objects on a vibrating fluid interface are set into steady rotation, with the ...

A direct-hybrid CFD/CAA method based on lattice Boltzmann and acoustic perturbation equations
The accuracy of two direct coupled two-step CFD/CAA methods is discussed. For the flow field either a finite-volume (FV) method for the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations or a lattice Boltzmann (LB) method is coupled to a discontinuous Galerkin (DG)
