Computation fluid dynamics on drag reduction II by Zang, Bin

“…Both the flow pattern in the form of velocity contours and the quantitative drag coefficient are extracted and compared in several ways: single dimple along the wall with depth (h/D = 0.21); multiple (three) dimples along the wall with different separation distances between adjacent dimples; single dimple but with several other h/D ratios (i.e. 0.25, 0.14, 0.10, 0.08). …”

Turbulent Flow over a Flexible Wall Undergoing a Streamwise Traveling Wavy Motion by Shen, Lian, Zhang, Xiang, Yue, Dick K.P., Triantafyllou, Michael S.

“…For negative c/U, we find that flow separation is enhanced and a large drag force is produced. For positive c/U, the results show that as c/U increases from zero, the separation bubble moves further upstream and away from the wall, and is reduced in strength. …”

An experimental and simulation study of chip transportation behaviour in gundrilling by Tnay, Guan Leong

“…From the experiments, terminal velocities of typical gun drill chips at different range of particle Reynolds number were determined to construct the unique drag curve. Based on the findings, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical model was developed to predict the lateral drag forces with respect to the particle Reynolds number. …”

Black hole binary formation and mergers in supermassive black hole discs by Rowan, C

“…A single range of impact parameters, typically of width $\sim0.8-1.6$ binary Hill radii (depending on the AGN disk density) reliably leads to binary formation. …”

Multi-scale and multiphase modeling of abrasive flow machining process with experimental validation by Mohamed Adel Abdelhakem Amen

“…Different from the common thought, the study proves that MR mechanism mainly comes from drag and impulse forces activated when the particle is blocked by surface asperity/protrusion…”

Determination of operating point for a propulsive wing UAV using CFD by Chan, Chee Shuan

“…CFD simulations were performed using a 2D RANS k-ε turbulence model and the rotating flow was captured using the moving reference frame method. Lift and drag were obtained for different angle of attacks via a control volume analysis of CFD results. …”

The political economy of oil and economic diversification: a neglected research field Robert Mabro would certainly like us to revive by Aissaoui, A

“…The less obvious reason is that multiple country case studies can help reflect the diversity of contexts and conditions and draw on distinct sources of evidence to discern national idiosyncrasies.…”

Slow viscous flow around two particles in a cylinder by Yao, Xin, Marcos, Wong, Teck Neng

“…The two solutions are performed in an iterated framework using the method of reflections. We compute the drag force and torque coefficients of the particles which are dependent on the distances among the cylinder wall and the two particles. …”

Nature-inspired lightweight auxetic structures for enhanced stiffness and absorption capacity by Zhang, Ee Teng

“…Finally, a new hybrid 3D auxetic structure along with its variant are investigated for both quasi-static and dynamic compression properties. Drawing inspiration from biological structures with hierarchical configurations, the investigation seeks to develop an auxetic structure with superior or equivalent properties to those derived from 2D designs, optimizing for dynamic loading conditions. …”
