Numerical Modelling of Non-isotropic Stratified Flows Using an Explicit Algebraic Reynolds Stress Turbulence Model (EARSM)

open access: yesنشریه مهندسی دریا, 2015
Flows of natural hydro-environments are usually turbulent and mostly stratified, like the flows in lakes, reservoirs, estuaries and atmosphere to name a few. In stratified flows due to the buoyancy forces, the turbulent stresses are usually non-isotropic.

Influence of a Modified Weir Profile on Velocity Field and Dissipation Rate in Stepped Spillways: A Comparative Study Using Physical Models and Computational Fluid Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
Stepped spillways are specialized hydraulic structures crafted to optimize the effective dissipation of hydraulic energy along stepped chutes. The central objective is to scrutinize and improve the mitigation of flow separation occurring from the ogee ...

Extreme‐Temperature Resistant, Flexible, and Sensitive Strain Sensor for Aerospace Parachute Deployment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, we report a resistive‐type strain sensor fabricated using single‐walled CNTs, are used layer using the pray technique to deposit as conductive, and UV‐resin was spin‐coated as a protection layer. The sensor functioned in harsh temperature variation conditions from −50°C to 125°C without deterioration.

Two‐Photon Polymerized Microvascular Environments for Multicellular Modeling of the Blood–Brain Tumor Barrier

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Modeling the blood–brain tumor barrier is challenging due to complex interactions between brain microvasculature and glioma cells. We present two‐photon polymerized 3D micro‐porous capillary‐like structures that support endothelial alignment, cytoskeletal organization, and pericyte‐endothelial‐glioma tri‐cultures.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Turbulent Hydrofoil Cavitation Simulations: Applications of RANS with Eddy Viscosity and Interfacial Turbulence Damping and LES

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The performance of various turbulence modelling methods for simulating cavitating flow over a hydrofoil was investigated. VOF mixture modelling was applied for the multiphase flow, along with a standard two-equation turbulence model, a hybrid RANS-LES ...

Physical and mathematical modelling of ladle metallurgy operations [PDF]

open access: yes
Experimental measurements are reported, on the velocity fields and turbulence parameters on a water model of an argon stirred ladle. These velocity measurements are complemented by direct heat transfer measurements, obtained by studying the rate at which

Adaptive mesh refinement simulations of a galaxy cluster merger - I. Resolving and modelling the turbulent flow in the cluster outskirts

open access: yes, 2017
The outskirts of galaxy clusters are characterised by the interplay of gas accretion and dynamical evolution involving turbulence, shocks, magnetic fields and diffuse radio emission.

Optimization of Magnetic Milli‐Spinner for Robotic Endovascular Intervention

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the design optimization of a multifunctional magnetic milli‐spinner for high‐speed propulsion and efficient clot debulking. The optimized design achieves an ultrafast swimming velocity of 55 cm/s (≈175 body lengths/s) in saline water, enabling stable upstream swimming against strong physiological flows and establishing magnetic milli‐
