Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) models are widely used for the simulation of engineering problems. The turbulent-viscosity hypothesis is a central assumption to achieve closures in this class of models. This assumption introduces structural or...

This study investigated the impact of overburden height on the hydraulic fracturing of a concrete-lined pressure tunnel, excavated in intact rock, under steady-state and transient-state conditions. Moreover, the Norwegian design criterion that only s...

Advances in machine learning (ML) coupled with increased computational power have enabled identification of patterns in data extracted from complex systems. ML algorithms are actively being sought in recovering physical models or mathematical equatio...

We present examples of Padé approximations of the α -effect and eddy viscosity/diffusivity tensors in various flows. Expressions for the tensors derived in the framework of the standard multiscale formalism are employed. Algebraical...

Sparse linear estimation of fluid flows using data-driven proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) basis is systematically explored in this work. Fluid flows are manifestations of nonlinear multiscale partial differential equations (PDE) dynamical syste...

The non-linear Schrödinger (NLS) equation has often been used as a model equation in the study of quantum states of physical systems. Numerical solution of NLS equation is obtained using cubic B-spline Galerkin method. We have applied the Crank&...

To have a safe structural design, an analysis of the dynamic behavior of a Francis turbine runner with consideration of the added mass effects of surrounding water is necessary during design phase. Both in design and at off-design operations, large-s...

The term “biomedical engineering” refers to the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering to biology and medicine [...]

The coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation (CNLSE) is a wave envelope evolution equation applicable to two crossing, narrow-banded wave systems. Modulational instability (MI), a feature of the nonlinear Schrödinger wave equation, is charact...

We explore the theory of isolated vortices in strongly sheared, deep zonal flows and the stability of these banded jets, as occur in Jupiter’s atmosphere This is done using the standard 2-layer quasigeostrophic model with the lower layer depth...
