Large eddy simulations of turbulent circular wall jets by Zhang, Shuai, Law, Adrian Wing-Keung, Zhao, Bing

“…Most of the previous studies focus on the kinematic characteristics of the jet flows, while the mixing characteristics including the scalar transport have not been well examined. The current study performs a comprehensive investigation of the turbulent circular wall jet including both the flow and mixing characteristics using the large eddy simulations (LES) approach with proper near-wall modelling. …”

De novo genome sequence assembly of the RNAi-tractable endosymbiosis model system Paramecium bursaria 186b reveals factors shaping intron repertoire by Leonard, G, Jenkins, BH, Savory, FR, Kilias, ES, Maguire, F, Varma, V, Milner, DS, Richards, TA

Experimental investigation on mode-I fracture properties of magnesium-based wood-like material using DIC technique by Li, C, Chen, H, Zhang, H, Marrow, TJ

“…To understand the fracture behaviors of a new environmentally friendly building material, namely magnesium-based wood-like material (MWM), three-point bending tests were carried out on single-edge notched beams to study its fracture properties. Full-field displacements and crack behaviours of the beams were measured using DIC technique and mode-I fracture properties of the MWM were studied. …”
