We leverage the computational singular perturbation (CSP) theory to develop an adaptive
time-integration scheme for stiff chemistry based on a local, projection-based, reduced order …

Building polymers implemented into building panels and exterior façades have been
determined as the major contributor to severe fire incidents, including the 2017 Grenfell …

Turbulent premixed flames at high Karlovitz numbers exhibit highly complex structures in
different reactive scalar fields to the extent that the definition of the flame front in an …

The dynamic mixing combustion characteristics in variable thrust hybrid rocket motors
(HRMs) have been investigated by using a newly developed two-dimensional transient …

Nonlinear turbulence closures were developed that improve the prediction accuracy of wake
mixing in low-pressure turbine (LPT) flows. First, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) …

In this study, we investigate the averaging and modeling of real fluid equations of state (EoS)
used in the context of numerical simulations of flows under conditions relevant to liquid …

An improved manifold-projection trajectory based dimension reduction algorithm (MTDR) to
automatically generate skeletal chemical kinetic mechanisms was proposed and validated …

Liquid rocket engines equipped with LOx/GCH4 pintle injectors represent a promising
technology when a large throttling capability is required. Still, limited amounts of data are …

Analyzing methane–oxygen rocket propellant combinations requires suitable modeling of
the major chemical reaction processes. Although several detailed kinetic mechanisms for …

With an increase in rocket motor thrust, the thermal loads on the launch platform by the
impingement exhaust jet are significantly increased, this poses serious safety risks to rocket …
