The gold-standard definition of the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is given
in the 1994 book by Bird [Molecular Gas Dynamics and the Direct Simulation of Gas Flows …

In the paper, the results of numerical modeling are presented of the 3D turbulent flows in a
channel with backward-facing step, and argon jets injected into the supersonic crossflow …

Drag coefficient is a major source of uncertainty in calculating the aerodynamic forces on
satellites in low Earth orbit. Closed-form solutions are available for simple geometries under …

The hypersonic, nonequilibrium thermochemistry flow over a cylinder was modeled to study
nitric oxide (NO) ultraviolet (UV) emissions. The main focus of this work is to model the …

Major impact events have shaped the Earth as we know it. The Late Heavy Bombardment is
of particular interest because it immediately precedes the first evidence of life. The reentry of …

The paper is devoted to the comparative study of Shakhov model kinetic equation and Direct
Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) solutions as applied to high-speed flow of a monatomic gas …

In gas-solid flows, the drag force experienced by solid particles plays a significant role in
determining the fluid dynamics of the system. Although several drag models have been …

Abstract Analysis of water vapor flows encountered in pharmaceutical freeze‐drying
systems, laboratory‐scale and industrial, is presented based on the computational fluid …

The physics of neutral and ion species in plume expansions to vacuum is challenging due to
the wide variation in length and time scales. To address the multiscale nature of these flows …

Robust cut-cell algorithms are detailed for general multi-level Cartesian grid direct
simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) implementations. Different approaches for each component …
