Plants live in constantly moving fluid, whether air or water. In response to the loads
associated with fluid motion, plants bend and twist, often with great amplitude. These large …

Over the last 50 years the large-eddy simulation (LES) technique has developed into one of
the most prominent numerical tools used to study transport processes in the atmospheric …

Aeolian landforms occur on all earths' continents as well as on Mars, Titan and Venus and
are typically formed where sediment is eroded and/or deposited by near surface wind flow …

Studying the microclimate of plant canopies has long motivated scientists in various
research fields such as agronomy, ecology or silviculture, and almost a century has passed …

This paper looks at the benefits of drones in agriculture, and their limitations, illustrating from
examples how drones operate on farms. Different features of drones are discussed …

A three dimensional numerical approach based on IHFOAM to study the interaction of
tsunami waves with mangrove forest is presented. As a first approximation, the problem is …

This work presents a new model for wave and submerged vegetation which couples the flow
motion with the plant deformation. The IH-2VOF model is extended to solve the Reynolds …

The paper addresses the fluid–structure interaction of submerged aquatic canopies, with
particular focus on the complex interplay between coherent flow structures and the motion of …

Emergent and submerged vegetation can significantly affect coastal hydrodynamics.
However, most deterministic numerical models do not take into account their influence on …

In order to investigate the intermittency of the aeolian saltation, a saltation model, forced with
instantaneous velocity fields, has been introduced in a Large Eddy Simulation airflow model …
