Statistical Fluid Mechanics: Dynamics Equations and Linear Response Theory [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids 35, 071704 (2023), 2023
The statistical nature of discrete fluid molecules with random thermal motion so far has not been considered in mainstream fluid mechanics based on Navier-Stokes equations, wherein fluids have been treated as a continuum breaking into many macroscopically infinitely small (but microscopically large enough) mass elements with their motion only ...

A machine learning model for predicting the ballistic impact resistance of unidirectional fiber-reinforced composite plate

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
It has been a vital issue to ensure both the accuracy and efficiency of computational models for analyzing the ballistic impact response of fiber-reinforced composite plates (FRCP). In this paper, a machine learning (ML) model is established in an effort

Relativistic viscoelastic fluid mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A detailed study is carried out for the relativistic theory of viscoelasticity which was recently constructed on the basis of Onsager's linear nonequilibrium thermodynamics.

Aerodynamics of two-dimensional bristled wings in low-Reynolds-number flow

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
The smallest flying insects commonly possess bristled wings and use drag to provide flight forces. A bristled wing, with a wing area about 10% of that of a flat-plate wing, operating at the relevant Reynolds number of 5–15, produces a drag close to the ...

Hybrid continuum-molecular modeling of fluid slip flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Experiments on fluid systems in micro-/nano-scale solid conveyors have shown a violation of the no-slip assumption that have been adopted by the classical fluid mechanics. To correct this mechanics for the fluid slip, various approaches have been proposed to determine the slip boundary conditions.

The cost of swimming in generalized Newtonian fluids: Experiments with C. elegans [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Fluid Mech. (2016), vol. 800, pp. 753-765, 2016
Numerous natural processes are contingent on microorganisms' ability to swim through fluids with non-Newtonian rheology. Here, we use the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and tracking methods to experimentally investigate the dynamics of undulatory swimming in shear-thinning fluids. Theory and simulation have proposed that the cost of swimming, or

COMP Report: CPQR technical quality control guidelines for use of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in radiation treatment planning

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Smart energy management of combined ventilation systems in a nZEB [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
The high energy consumption, attached to a high energy demand in buildings, has led the development of several research projects with the target of reducing the energy consumption in the buildings.

Lubricated axisymmetric gravity currents of power-law fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The motion of glaciers over their bedrock or drops of fluid along a solid surface can become unstable when these substrates are lubricated. Previous studies modeled such systems as coupled gravity currents (GCs) consisting of one fluid that lubricates the flow of another fluid, and having two propagating fronts.
