This paper reviews 5 existing models for predicting wind characteristics, namely the mean
wind velocity and turbulence intensity, in the sheltered area of single or multi-row …

Flow forming is a promising technique to manufacture thin-walled tubular parts with cross
inner ribs (longitudinal and transverse inner ribs, LTIRs) which are highly demanded in …

The appearance of detached recirculation regions in wakes with base bleed determines the
aerodynamic properties of many natural organisms and technological applications. In this …

The effect of single perforations and their location on the drag and reconfiguration of flexible
plates was explored through laboratory experiments and direct numerical simulations. The …

Despite the widespread use of diffusers in various industries, there is no comprehensive
research so far. This is expressive on how the flow diffuses throughout the diffuser geometry …

The paper analyzes how the structure of the flow past solid (porosity P= 0%) and porous (P=
36%) plates containing parallel solid elements changes with increasing gap distance from …

The multi-relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method is used to perform direct numerical
simulations of laminar and turbulent pressure-driven flows within a channel with hill-shape …

Featured Application This study established a new approach for calculating the effect of
vibration-induced pressures on cylindrical thin-walled structures. Such a method will benefit …

The study of flow around obstacles is devised into three different positions: above the
obstacle, upstream of the obstacle, and downstream of the latter. The behaviour of the fluid …

Manipulation of turbulence within an atmospheric boundary layer flow by application of
woven wire mesh fences is investigated. Turbulence properties behind fences of different …
