Investigation of compliancy effects on the inviscid instability in fluid flow over a flat plate with heat transfer

S.S. Motsa, P. Sibanda

A detailed investigation of the effects of surface flexibility on the inviscid instability of boundary‐layer flow over a horizontal flat plate with heat transfer when the fluid…

Pseudospectral element model for free surface viscous flows

M.J. Chern, A.G.L. Borthwick, R. Eatock Taylor

The research is directed at development of an efficient and accurate technique for modelling incompressible free surface flows in which viscous effects may not be neglected. The…

Natural convection in a porous cavity with spatial sidewall temperature variation

Nawaf H. Saeid, A.A. Mohamad

To study the natural convention in a square porous cavity induced by heating one of the sidewalls and the other sidewall is cooled, while the horizontal walls are adiabatic. The…

A local radial point interpolation method for dissipation process of excess pore water pressure

J.G. Wang, L. Yan, G.R. Liu

Develop a local radial point interpolation method (LRPIM) to analyze the dissipation process of excess pore water pressure in porous media and verify its numerical capability.

Numerical study of non‐equilibrium weakly ionized air flow past blunt bodies

Ghislain Tchuen, Yves Burtschell, David E. Zeitoun

To compute the Navier‐Stokes equations of a non‐equilibrium weakly ionized air flow. This can help to have a better description of the flow‐field and the wall heat transfer in…
