Local simulation of sloshing jet in a rolling tank by viscous-inviscid interaction method
In this paper, the local behavior of the jet induced by the fluid impact is studied by a new viscous-inviscid interaction (VII) method. This method is based on the inviscid Eulerian-Langrangian (IEL) scheme implemented by the boundary element method (BEM)

Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter-sized alginate hydrogel beads. [PDF]
Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation. Next, we measured the perimeter and circularity of hydrogel beads as

A Volume of Fluid (VOF) Method for the Simulation of Metallurgical Flows
A finite difference numerical method, based on the VOF approach for tracking interface distortions, is presented. It is capable of accurately simulating the fluid flow of multiple immiscible fluids for metallurgical applications. This volume tracking method is based on piecewise linear reconstructions of interfaces, density distributions based on a ...

Full-Eulerian Finite-Difference Simulation of Fluid Flow in Hyperelastic Wavy Channel
Fluid flows interacting with deformable wavy channel are simulated by a newly developed full-Eulerian simulation method. A single set of the governing equations for fluid and solid is employed, and a volume-of-fluid (VOF) function is used for describing ...

A volume-of-fluid method for interface-resolved simulations of phase-changing two-fluid flows [PDF]
We present a numerical method for interface-resolved simulations of evaporating two-fluid flows based on the volume-of-fluid (VoF) method. The method has been implemented in an efficient FFT-based two-fluid Navier-Stokes solver, using an algebraic VoF ...
