The full scale (1:1) test platform located at the UPC (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) allows us to reproduce the local runoff process and the study of inlet grates or other types of capture systems. Over the last ...

Aortic Coarctation is a congenital constriction of the aorta that increases blood pressure above the constriction and hinders the flow below it. Based on a 3D surface mesh of a moderate thoracic coarctation, a high quality ...

This work is a continuation of the 3D numerical study of the bubble generation process into a T-junction bubble generator (1 mm of internal diameter) obtained with the commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics solver ANSYS ...

In this work, we develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based surrogate model, which predicts flow parameters under different geometrical configurations and boundary conditions in a benchmark case of a mechanically ...

The monograph presents recent developments on the solution of high speed compressible flow problems using finite element and finite point (meshless) methods with adaptive refinement, techniques. This work treats two of the ...

A weighted least squares finite point method for compressible flow is formulated. Starting from a global cloud of points, local clouds are constructed using a Delaunay technique with a series of tests for the quality of ...

For complex engineering and scientific applications, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations require a huge amount of computational power. As such, it is of paramount importance to carefully assess the performance ...

A new topography adapted mesh generation framework tailored to simulate Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) flows on complex terrains is presented. The mesher is fully automatic given: the maximum and minimum surface mesh ...

CFD optimizations are characterized by long and highly variable objective function evaluation times. The aim of this study is to improve the parallel performance using a new load balancing master-worker parallelization ...
