Computational fluid dynamics models based on Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes
equations with turbulence closures still play important roles in engineering design and …

Xcompact3D is a Fortran 90–95 open-source framework designed for fast and accurate
simulations of turbulent flows, targeting CPU-based supercomputers. It is an evolution of the …

This numerical work investigates the potential of a high-order finite-difference spectral
vanishing viscosity approach to simulate gravity currents at high Reynolds numbers. The …

The present knowledge of plunging hyperpycnal river plumes is mainly based on two‐
dimensional (confined) laboratory experiments. Several hypotheses on three‐dimensional …

We present a high order finite difference solver, ParaTC, for the direct numerical simulations
of turbidity currents with canonical turbulent channel configuration (periodic boundary …

Hyperpycnal flows are observed when the density of a fluid entering into a quiescent
environment is greater than that of the ambient fluid. This difference can be due to salinity …

In the present study, mesopycnal flows are investigated using direct numerical simulations.
In particular, intrusive density-and particle-driven gravity currents in the lock exchange setup …

Sensitivity analysis is necessary in numerical models to establish the optimal model
configuration and simulate turbidity currents accurately. The sensitivity of turbidity currents …

This work studies the nearshore hydrodynamics of a shallow turbulent flow entering a
laterally unconfined quiescent ambient with a sloping bottom boundary. Examples of such …

As correntes de densidade são fluxos impulsionados por diferenças de massa específica
entre a corrente e o fluido ambiente. Quando a diferença de massa específica é devido a …
