With the increasing use of Computational Fluid Dynamics to investigate multiphase flow
scenarios, modelling surface tension effects has been a topic of active research. A well …

This work aims presenting a new computational framework (bioSMOKE) for modeling the
thermochemical conversion of anisotropic biomass particles. It allows for the solution of the …

We propose, In-Timestep Remeshing (ITR), a new algorithm for simulating frictionally
contacting elastodynamics where remeshing criteria, remeshing operations, and variable …

Economic production of oil and gas from tight rocks requires horizontal well drilling with
multiple hydraulic fractures along the length of the horizontal wells. Multiple horizontal wells …

We propose a finite element formulation for a coupled elasticity–reaction–diffusion system
written in a fully Lagrangian form and governing the spatio-temporal interaction of species …

This manuscript presents a moving mesh interface tracking procedure, with a novel
treatment for phase coupling. The new coupling strategy allows accurate predictions for the …

A novel control volume finite element method with adaptive anisotropic unstructured meshes
is presented for three‐dimensional three‐phase flows with interfacial tension. The numerical …

To avoid the cumbersome re-meshing, an easy-to-implement immersed boundary method
(IBM) is developed for simulating the coupling of gas flow and burning surface regression in …

In this study, two new techniques are proposed for accelerating the multi-point optimization
of an airfoil shape by genetic algorithms. In such multi-point evolutionary optimization, the …

The recovery of underwater vehicles using a pneumatic inflatable collar provides an
economical approach to the re-use of the vehicles and/or collar. However, limited high …
