A hybrid VOF–Lagrangian method for simulating the aerodynamic breakup of liquid droplets
induced by a traveling shock wave is proposed and tested. The droplet deformation and …

This article represents the natural continuation of the work by Rossano and De Stefano
(2021), dealing with the computational fluid dynamics analysis of a shock wave interaction …

The study illustrated in this paper completes the topics initially investigated in Ref.[42], the
aim being here to analyze the role of the integral-based Finite Volume (FV) discretizations in …

A lock-exchange density current flowing in a 90° bending channel is investigated using
dynamic large eddy simulation. In the middle of the current and far from the head and tail …
