Thermally driven turbulent flows are omnipresent in nature and technology. A good
understanding of the physical principles governing such flows is key for numerous problems …

Several studies have been performed in the last three decades to assess the impacts of
marine biofouling on offshore wind turbines (OWTs) substructures. Marine biofouling …

Concentrating solar thermal (CST) is an efficient renewable energy technology with low-cost
thermal energy storage. CST relies on wide-spectrum solar thermal absorbers that must …

Whereas streamwise effective slope (surfaces in this study can lead to diminished levels of
outer-layer similarity in both mean flow and turbulence statistics, which is attributed to …

We study the flow above non-optimal riblets, specifically large drag-increasing and two-
scale trapezoidal riblets. In order to reach large Reynolds numbers and large scale …

The skewness of the roughness height distribution is one of the key topographical
parameters that govern roughness effects on wall-bounded turbulence. In this paper …

CFD of convective heat transfer remains a challenge, especially in channels with irregular
rough walls due to the complex fluid dynamics over and between these roughness …

We perform direct numerical simulation of supersonic turbulent channel flow over cubical
roughness elements, spanning bulk Mach numbers, both in the transitional and fully rough …

Cube arrays are one of the most extensively studied types of surface roughness, and there
has been much research on cubical roughness with low-to-moderate surface coverage …

The structure and intensity of turbulence in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) drive
fluxes of sediment, contaminants, heat, moisture, and CO 2 at the Earth's surface. Where …
