Upscaling Pulsed Laser Fragmentation in Liquids by Advanced Free‐Flow Setups

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 20, 21 October 2026.
Advanced flow setups providing thin colloid films are introduced to upscale pulsed laser fragmentation in liquids for sustainable nanoparticle synthesis. Their potential is demonstrated by yielding remarkably small ZnO nanoparticles of <7 nm. Numerical simulations complement the study, revealing that the superior performance can be attributed to ...

Simulating Plateau-Rayleigh instability and liquid reentrainment in a flow field using a VOF method [PDF]

, 2012
Plateau-Rayleigh Instability (PRI) is the well known phenomena of the breakup of a liquid column or cylinder. Such a process is integral to the operation of a range of natural and anthropogenic systems, such as gas-liquid and liquid-liquid separators ...

Heat Transfer Enhancement in the Microscale: Optimization of Fluid Flow

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Microscale heat transfer deviates from conventional behavior due to scale effects and fluid properties. This review examines single‐phase convection and advanced working fluids, highlighting key mechanisms such as rarefaction, surface effects, and phase interactions, to guide optimized design of high‐performance microchannel heat exchangers.

An Informed Guide to Hydrodynamic Models Accounting for Large Wood and Logjams in Rivers

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 10, October 2026.
Large wood numerical modelling in rivers is used to investigate diverse aims, the most frequent being flood hazard and river restoration. The aim of models' application is correlated to the adoption of static or moving LW representation. LW modelling feasibility is affected by data availability, processes included within the model and model calibration.

Monolithic Framework to Simulate Fluid‐Structure Interaction Problems Using Geometric Volume‐of‐Fluid Method

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 10, Page 1105-1125, October 2026.
A three‐dimensional fluid‐structure interaction (FSI) framework is developed using the geometric volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) interface capturing method and applied to assess largescale turbulent FSI interactions. The monolithic FSI framework is extensively validated, and despite the discontinuities across the interface, the FSI framework delivers stable and ...
