International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Early‐stage hydrodynamic assessment of slender multihull vessels is challenged by limited geometric maturity, uncertain propulsion integration, and strong sensitivity to operating conditions. Under such constraints, reliance on a single analytical or numerical method may lead to misleading design decisions due to oversimplification or ...

On the choice of a phase interchange strategy for a multiscale DEM-VOF Method
, 2017 peer reviewedIn this work a novel Multiscale DEM-VOF method is adopted to study three phase flows. It consists in solving the fluid momentum, mass conservation and the phase advection at a different scale with respect to the fluid-particle coupling ...

Numerical Simulation of an Air-Core Vortex and Its Suppression at an Intake Using OpenFOAM
Fluids, 2020 A common challenge faced by engineers in the hydraulic industry is the formation of free surface vortices at pump and power intakes. This undesirable phenomenon which sometimes entrains air could result in several operational problems: noise, vibration ...

steel research international, EarlyView.Bubble transport in continuous casting is controlled by the interaction of bubble size, flow dynamics, and operating conditions. Critical regions governing bubble escape and entrapment are identified, revealing the mechanisms responsible for defect formation and providing practical guidance for process optimization. Argon injection is often used in the

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 11, Page 5892-5909, November 2026.Abstract Accurately simulating multiphase flows at low capillary numbers remains challenging due to spurious currents and interface discretization errors. We present a systematic comparison of four volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) solvers within the OpenFOAM framework for pressure‐driven Poiseuille–Bingham flow over grooved surfaces: interFoam with classical ...

Exact Computation of the Color Function for Triangular Element Interfaces
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 11, Page 1181-1194, November 2026.We propose a robust algorithm, the Front2VOF algorithm, to compute the color function for triangular element interfaces in Front‐Tracking methods on a Cartesian mesh. ABSTRACT The calculation of the volume enclosed by curved surfaces discretized into triangular elements and a cube is of great importance in different domains, such as computer graphics ...

A Level Set Method on Particle Flow Maps
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 20, 30 October 2026.ABSTRACT Accurate interface tracking is central to numerical simulations involving moving boundaries, including multiphase flows, free‐surface dynamics, phase‐change problems, and other interface‐driven processes in computational mechanics. Although, level set methods provide a flexible implicit representation of evolving interfaces, their grid‐based ...
