Experimental study of vortex-flame interaction in a gas turbine model combustor

M Stöhr, I Boxx, CD Carter, W Meier - Combustion and flame, 2012 - Elsevier
The interaction of a helical precessing vortex core (PVC) with turbulent swirl flames in a gas
turbine model combustor is studied experimentally. The combustor is operated with air and …

The physics of broadcast spawning in benthic invertebrates

JP Crimaldi, RK Zimmer - Annual Review of Marine Science, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Most benthic invertebrates broadcast their gametes into the sea, whereupon successful
fertilization relies on the complex interaction between the physics of the surrounding fluid …

Biomixing by chemotaxis and enhancement of biological reactions

A Kiselev, L Ryzhik - Communications in Partial Differential …, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
Many phenomena in biology involve both reactions and chemotaxis. These processes can
clearly influence each other, and chemotaxis can play an important role in sustaining and …

The role of structured stirring and mixing on gamete dispersal and aggregation in broadcast spawning

JP Crimaldi - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2012 - journals.biologists.com
Broadcast-spawning benthic invertebrates synchronously release sperm and eggs from
separate locations into the surrounding flow, whereupon the process depends on structured …

Plume spreading in groundwater by stretching and folding

DC Mays, RM Neupauer - Water Resources Research, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
This paper proposes a new approach to the hydraulics of in situ groundwater remediation. In
situ remediation promotes reactions between an injected treatment solution and the …

Self-generated convective flows enhance the rates of chemical reactions

RK Manna, K Gentile, OE Shklyaev, A Sen, AC Balazs - Langmuir, 2022 - ACS Publications
In chemical solutions, the products of catalytic reactions can occupy different volumes
compared to the reactants and thus give rise to local density variations in the fluid. These …

Turbulent coherent structures and early life below the Kolmogorov scale

MS Krieger, S Sinai, MA Nowak - Nature communications, 2020 - nature.com
Major evolutionary transitions, including the emergence of life, likely occurred in aqueous
environments. While the role of water's chemistry in early life is well studied, the effects of …

A numerical framework for diffusion-controlled bimolecular-reactive systems to enforce maximum principles and the non-negative constraint

KB Nakshatrala, MK Mudunuru, AJ Valocchi - Journal of Computational …, 2013 - Elsevier
We present a novel computational framework for diffusive–reactive systems that satisfies the
non-negative constraint and maximum principles on general computational grids. The …

Lower bound of mass in a chemotactic model with advection and absorbing reaction

J Ahn, K Kang, J Kim, J Lee - SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2017 - SIAM
We consider a mathematical model motivated by the studies of coral broadcast spawning in
spatial dimensions two and three. We establish the local and global well-posedness of …
