Numerical simulation of the airflow–rivulet interaction associated with the rain-wind induced vibration phenomenon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rain-wind induced vibration is an aeroelastic phenomenon that occurs on the inclined cables of cable-stayed bridges. The vibrations are believed to be caused by a complicated nonlinear interaction between rivulets of rain water that run down the cables ...

Effects of Multistage Geotechnical Erosion on Dynamic Mechanical Response of Buried Pipelines

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
River‐spanning pipelines are prone to serious hazards during flooding events, which can trigger erosion, exposure, and large‐scale flotation. In this research, a numerical simulation framework was developed using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to analyze the dynamic behavior of pipelines subjected to dam‐breach flood scenarios.

VISUALIZATION OF THE KARMAN VORTEX STREET DUE TO NATURAL CONVECTION

open access: yesJOURNAL OF THE FLOW VISUALIZATION SOCIETY OF JAPAN, 1988
The development of the Karman vortex street due to natural convection in the opposing flow was discovered and has been clarified by means of the numerical simulation by Noto & Matsumoto. A flow visualization is carried out to verify the numerical prediction on the development of the Karman vortex street.

Extrapolation Boundary Conditions for 2‐D Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 97, Issue 9, Page 1248-1279, September 2025.
This paper introduces novel inflow, outflow, and wall boundaries for the WCSPH method. Utilising innovative concepts from finite volume methods, fluid properties of sequential dynamic particles with varying distances to boundaries are extrapolated to ghost and wall particles using first‐order Taylor series expansion.
