The implementations of an updated body-fitted and a non body-fitted method to deal with the interaction of a fluid and a rigid body are described. The physics of the fluid is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes ...

The Karlıova triple junction (KTJ) in eastern Turkey has been subjected to incremental deformation resulting in complex kinematic and mechanical interactions throughout the upper crust. These interactions have generated ...

The fluid flows of liquids and gases can be divided basically in two modes: 1. Laminar - when fluid movement is highly ordered and streamlines are smooth, i.e. without changes abruptly of the path lines; 2. Turbulent - ...

The scope of this article is the design, testing, implementation and health-monitoring of viscous fluid dampers in a real building. First, a numerical model that captures the complex fluid dynamics and thermal behavior of ...

In refrigeration compressors, the suction and discharge valves are responsible for the retention of the refrigerant from the suction chamber to the cylinder and passage from the cylinder to the discharge chamber. As the ...

The mechanism of epithelial fluid transport remains unsolved, which is partly due to inherent experimental difficulties. However, a preparation with which our laboratory works, the corneal endothelium, is a simple leaky ...

This paper presents a dynamic model of vertical oil wells using artificial elevation by suckerrod pumping. The modeling of the system is separated by modules that provide a good understanding of the system. The modules ...
