Density stratification due to temperature or salinity variations greatly influences the flow
around and the sedimentation of objects such as particles, drops, bubbles, and small …

The concept of added mass is generalized to stratified fluids, accounting for the presence of
internal waves. Once the added mass of a moving body is known, so is the hydrodynamic …

The effect of shape on the dynamics of suspensions of non-spherical heavy particles is
examined by fully resolved numerical simulations of oblate and prolate spheroids, as well as …

We study numerically a spherical particle settling through a density transition layer at
moderate Reynolds numbers Re u= 69∼ 259 for the upper fluid. We investigate how the …

The high-Reynolds-number stratified wake of a slender body is studied using a high-
resolution hybrid simulation. The wake generator is a 6: 1 prolate spheroid with a tripped …

This paper examines the rigid body motion of a spheroid sedimenting in a Newtonian fluid
with a spatially varying viscosity field. The fluid is at zero Reynolds number, and the viscosity …

The effect of volume fraction on the dynamics of a gravity driven suspension of prolate
spheroidal solid particles in a fully periodic domain is examined by fully resolved numerical …

We consider a theoretical model for the settling of rod-shaped particles of a dilute, initially
homogeneous, suspension in rapid rotation. The particle Reynolds number and the particle …

This study investigates the transport of particles in density-stratified fluids, a prevalent
natural phenomenon. In the ocean, particles and marine snow descend through fluids with …

The effects of the Schmidt number (Sc) on the flow past a sphere descending in a stratified
fluid are investigated using high-resolution numerical simulations over a wide range of Sc …
