On Wind Directions Estimated by Nacelle Lidar Under Different Reconstruction Methods

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The wind direction is closely linked to the power performance and structural loads of wind turbines. Conventional nacelle‐mounted vanes or sonic anemometers face errors associated with airflow distortions caused by turbine blades. Nacelle‐mounted lidar systems offer line‐of‐sight speed measurements from multiple positions ahead of the rotor ...

An evaluation of three two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics codes including low Reynolds numbers and transonic Mach numbers [PDF]

open access: yes
Full-potential, Euler, and Navier-Stokes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes were evaluated for use in analyzing the flow field about airfoils sections operating at Mach numbers from 0.20 to 0.60 and Reynolds numbers from 500,000 to 2,000,000.

PAB3D: Its History in the Use of Turbulence Models in the Simulation of Jet and Nozzle Flows [PDF]

open access: yes
This is a review paper for PAB3D s history in the implementation of turbulence models for simulating jet and nozzle flows. We describe different turbulence models used in the simulation of subsonic and supersonic jet and nozzle flows.

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

Assessment of Vehicle Stability Processes Under Unsteady Flow Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The vehicle stability criteria are based on experimental and theoretical studies that do not account for the unsteady nature of floods. The rapid variation of depths and velocities in floods causes an additional hydrodynamic force in the direction of the flow, destabilising a vehicle that would otherwise be safe in steady flow conditions.

A Jacobian‐Free Newton‐Krylov Method for Cell‐Centred Finite Volume Solid Mechanics

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a Jacobian‐free Newton‐Krylov approach for finite‐volume solid mechanics. Traditional Newton‐based approaches require explicit Jacobian matrix formation and storage, which can be computationally expensive and memory‐intensive.

Capillary Dynamics Analysis of Millimetric Tubes for Anti‐Slip Surfaces: A Phase‐Field Based Finite Element Approach and Experimental Validation

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
Phase‐field method based numerical modelling of the capillary rise in millimeter‐sized tubes, aiming for anti‐slip applications. The experimental validation was performed through capillary assays in polyethylene oxide (PEO) bulk modified polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) channels.

Navier-Stokes simulation of transonic wing flow fields using a zonal grid approach [PDF]

open access: yes
The transonic Navier-Stokes code was used to simulate flow fields about isolated wings for workshop wind-tunnel and free-air cases using the thin-layer Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations.
