A component of a hydraulic shock absorber, a check valve, is analyzed using both numerical
simulations as well as experimental testing. A fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model is set up …

In this work, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of a ferrofluid plane Poiseuille
flow under the action of a uniform applied magnetic field are performed. An original …

Assembly and interactions of biomolecules are fundamental processes in living organisms
to maintain the physiological cellular behavior. The majority of the time protein assembly is …

The objective of this thesis is to identify and characterize the footprint of coherent flow
structures at the wall by means of electric wall-bounded sensor arrays. Microstructured …
