A benchmark study on the efficiency of unconstrained optimization algorithms in 2D-aerodynamic shape design

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2017
Optimization algorithms are used in various engineering applications to identify optimal shapes. In this work, we benchmark several unconstrained optimization algorithms (Nelder–Mead, Quasi-Newton, steepest descent) under variation of gradient estimation

Analysis of Turbulent Modeling for Free‐Surface Flows Using a Hybrid RANS‐LES Model and Particle‐Based Moving Particle Semi‐Implicit Method

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 321-347, March 2026.
A hybrid RANS‐LES turbulence model adapted for the Moving Particle Semi‐implicit method is employed to investigate a turbulent free surface flow. A method based on the cell‐linked list is proposed to speed up the nearest wall search for the turbulence model.

Large-eddy simulations of high Reynolds number jets with a suitable subgrid-scale model for solver dependency study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Large-eddy simulations are performed of a turbulent round jet at Ma = 0.5 and 0.9. The solver dependency is explored on computationally affordable grids of 5 and 20 million grid points, by taking advantage of the consistency of the subgrid-scale ...

Efficient solution of 3D electromagnetic eddy-current problems within the finite volume framework of OpenFOAM

open access: yes, 2017
Eddy-current problems occur in a wide range of industrial and metallurgical applications where conducting material is processed inductively. Motivated by realising coupled multi-physics simulations, we present a new method for the solution of such ...

Coupling OpenFOAM with external simulation codes using OpenFOAM-preCICE

open access: yes, 2022
Users of simulation codes often wish to extend simulations to include phenomena solved in OpenFOAM. Such problems appear in cooling devices, on flexible wings, or even in nuclear fusion reactors. The OpenFOAM-preCICE adapter allows users to quickly couple OpenFOAM to arbitrary other codes, bridging their communities, and opening new application ...

A New Actuator Surface Model with Improved Wake Model for CFD Simulations of Rotorcraft [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Simulations of rotorcraft operating in unsteady flow-fields, manoeuvring flight, or with complex rotor configurations pose a significant challenge to current simulation methods.

THE SIMULATION OF SKEG EFFECT TO BARGE RESISTANCE CALCULATION USING CFD-RANS OPENFOAM

open access: yesWave, 2021
The paper discusses the significance of different types of skegs in a barge toward the pressure, fluid velocity and the ship total resistance. There are three kinds of skeg configurations: barge without skegs, skegs without deflection, and skegs with ...

Maxwell's Fishpond

open access: yes, 2012
Most of us will have at some time thrown a pebble into water, and watched the ripples spread outwards and fade away. But now there is a way to reverse the process, and make those ripples turn around and reconverge again, ... and again, and again.
