Abstract
A Lagrangian incompressible fluid flow model is extended by including an implicit surface tension term in order to analyze droplet dynamics. The Lagrangian framework is adopted [...]
Abstract
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a complex surgical procedure that restores hearing in patients with severe deafness. The successful outcome of the implanted device relies on [...]
Abstract
Computational modeling has become a powerful tool in biomedical engineering thanks to its potential to simulate coupled systems. However, real parameters are usually not accurately [...]
Abstract
An embedded Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation for the simulation of droplet dynamics within a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) channel is presented. Air is modeled using [...]
Abstract
The Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) is used to develop a model to study two-phase flow in fuel cell gas channels. First, the PFEM is used to develop the model of free [...]
Abstract
Design optimization has already become an important tool in industry. The benefits are clear, but several drawbacks are still present, being the main one the computational [...]
Abstract
The present section will focus on the applicability issues of Monte Carlo-based methods, as well as those methods based on sampling techniques. Special focus will be put on [...]
Abstract
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is becoming a strategic step in the design phase. Robust Design Optimization (RDO) is the following step. The Technological Readiness Level [...]
Abstract
In this chapter, we present a general introduction to Monte Carlo (MC)-based methods, sampling methodologies, stratification methods, and variance reduction techniques. In [...]
Abstract
The high-level objective of MARS project was to understand the formation and behaviour of turbulent structures which affects the Reynolds stress and skin friction. The aim [...]
Abstract
Since 1947, when Schubauer and Skramstad established the basis of the technology with its revolutionary work about steady state tools and mechanisms for the flow management, [...]
Abstract
The potential benefits of active flow control are no more debated. Among many others applications, flow control provides an effective mean for manipulating turbulent separated [...]
Abstract
Aircraft emission targets worldwide and their climatic effects have put pressure in government agencies, aircraft manufacturers and airlines to reduce water vapour, carbon [...]
