Experimental study of local scour around piles in tidal current
This paper presents an experimental study of local scour around a vertical circular pile subject to unidirectional flow, sinusoidal tidal current and a reversing current (i.e. a ‘square’ tide).

METHOD OF CHARACTERISTICS FOR DESIGN OF CENTRIFUGAL PUMP GEOMETRY
The method of characteristics leads to the blade geometry of a centrifugal pump. The method is built taking the advantage of the governing equations of fluid mechanics written in a non-orthogonal coordinates system.

Fluid Mechanics of Papermaking
Papermaking is to a large extent a multiphase flow process in which the structure of the material and many of the relevant properties of the final product are determined by the interaction between water and the wood fibers.

Mechanics of inhomogeneous turbulence and interfacial layers
The mechanics of inhomogeneous turbulence in and adjacent to interfacial layers bounding turbulent and non-turbulent regions are analysed. Different mechanisms are identified according to the straining by the turbulent eddies in relation to the strength ...

An efficient interface-tracking method for evaporative surfaces
Evaporative surfaces constitute a common feature of oceanic flows but are also encountered in industrial applications such as in spent-fuel pools of nuclear power plants. In fact, after the catastrophic events that occurred in Fukushima in 2011, the post-

Numerical simulation of vortex-induced vibration of two long flexible circular cylinders in tandem
A quasi three-dimensional numerical model is developed to study vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of two tandem flexible circular cylinders. In this model, the whole cylinder is divided into many sections along its length.

21st Australasian Fluid Mechanics Conference (AFMC 2018)
Fluid Structure Interactions (FSI), if not managed appropriately are known to have contributed to the loss of several aerospace vehicles. As done for the X-43, FSI can be designed-out by making structures sufficiently rigid and by providing appropriate ...
