Effects of Wave–Current Interaction on Storm Surge in the Pearl River Estuary: A Case Study of Super Typhoon Mangkhut

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
This study explored the effects of interactions between waves and current on storm surge in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) using a fully coupled wave–current model. The model was validated based on in situ observations during the traverse of super typhoon

Introducing purely hydrodynamic networking mechanisms in microfluidic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Microfluidic is a multidisciplinary field with prac- tical applications to the design of systems, called Lab-on-a- Chip (LoC), where tiny volumes of fluids are circulated through channels with millimeter size and driven into structures where precise ...

Nanoflow hydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2011
We show by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations that the Navier-Stokes equation does not correctly describe water flow in a nanoscale geometry. It is argued that this failure reflects the fact that the coupling between the intrinsic rotational and translational degrees of freedom becomes important for nanoflows.

Hydrodynamics of resonances [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics A, 2011
We derive system of equations describing fluidity of the medium consisting of non-relativistic particles with finite mass-widths. For that we use expressions for the kinetic Noether 4-current and the Noether energy-momentum tensor being conserved provided one uses self-consistent approximations to the gradient expanded Kadanoff-Baym equations.

Pressure Drop Hysteresis of Hydrodynamic States in Packed Tower for Foaming Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An experimental investigation was carried out to determine the effects of gas and liquid flow velocities and surface tension on the two-phase phase pressure drop a in a downflow trickle bed reactor. Water and non-Newtonian foaming solutions were employed

Bacterial Hydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2016
Bacteria predate plants and animals by billions of years. Today, they are the world's smallest cells yet they represent the bulk of the world's biomass, and the main reservoir of nutrients for higher organisms. Most bacteria can move on their own, and the majority of motile bacteria are able to swim in viscous fluids using slender helical appendages ...

Modelling of the coupling hydrodynamic transfer for a gas-liquid countercurrent flow on a wavy surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper concerns laminar countercurrent gas–liquid flow over a wavy wall column, in the case of a falling liquid film. The modelling concerns the coupling of hydrodynamic and heat and mass transfer for an absorption as an example of application.

Hydrodynamic object recognition using pressure sensing

open access: yes, 2010
Hydrodynamic sensing is instrumental to fish and some amphibians. It also represents, for underwater vehicles, an alternative way of sensing the fluid environment when visual and acoustic sensing are limited.

Hydrodynamic propulsion of human sperm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The detailed fluid mechanics of sperm propulsion are fundamental to our understanding of reproduction. In this paper, we aim to model a human sperm swimming in a microscope slide chamber.

Process-based karst modelling to relate hydrodynamic and hydrochemical characteristics to system properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
More than 30% of Europe's land surface is made up of karst exposures. In some countries, water from karst aquifers constitutes almost half of the drinking water supply.
