Ghana continues to record increasing numbers of uncompleted projects with its attendant
cost overruns which are borne by the taxpayer. Several studies have sought to explain this …

Multiphase flows with momentum, heat, and mass transfer exist widely in a variety of
industrial applications. With the rapid development of numerical algorithms and computer …

In this work, a novel boundary condition-enforced immersed boundary method (IBM) for
simulating complex thermal–fluid–structure interaction (TFSI) problems with Robin boundary …

Abstract Particle-resolved (PR) high-fidelity simulations, eg, direct numerical simulation
(DNS), have emerged as a powerful tool to precisely capture the full details of complex fluid …

In this work, the inverse distance weighting (IDW) interpolation is introduced into the implicit
velocity correction-based immersed boundary method (IBM) for simulation of incompressible …

Compressible flows at low Mach numbers are prevalent in various engineering applications,
such as combustion, aeroacoustics, heat transfer, and more. In this study, we present a …

Flow and reactive transport problems in engineering, medical and environmental
applications often involve complex geometries. Grid based methods (eg finite volume, finite …

We review the progress in the development and application of immersed boundary (IB)
methods to thermofluids problems achieved in the last three decades. The implementation of …

The present work proposes a method to study problems of drops and bubbles evolving in
complex geometries. First, a conservative level set (CLS) method is enforced to handle the …

In this study, a new finite-difference-based ghost-point immersed boundary method (IBM) is
developed for the simulation of compressible flows with stationary or moving bodies. A third …
