      Effect of turbulent pulsating flow around a near-wall submerged cylinder on the potential motion of bed and suspended loads 

      Fonias, E. N.; Grigoriadis, D. G. E. (International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers, 2016)
      In the present work, the pulsating flow around a submerged cylinder close to the impermeable seabed is examined by means of Large Eddy Simulations (LES). A Reynolds number equal to Re = 5000 is considered, based on the ...

      Large eddy simulation of sediment transport for the pulsating flow past a cylinder over a horizontal bed 

      Fonias, E. N.; Grigoriadis, D. G. E. (International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers, 2015)
      In the present work, the suspended, pulsating incompressible flow past a submerged cylinder was examined by means of Large Eddy Simulations (LES). A layer of sandy inertial particles was allowed to move between the cylinder ...

      LES of the flow past a rectangular cylinder using the immersed boundary concept 

      Grigoriadis, D. G. E.; Bartzis, J. G.; Goulas, A. (2003)
      Incompressible turbulent flow past a long square cylinder is investigated using large eddy simulations LES). Results are presented and compared with available experimental databases for a Reynolds number Red = 22 000. The ...

      On the transition to turbulence of a viscoplastic fluid past a confined cylinder: A numerical study 

      Kanaris, N.; Kassinos, Stavros C.; Alexandrou, Andreas N. (2015)
      Three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of a Bingham fluid flowing past a confined circular cylinder have been used in order to investigate viscoplastic effects in the wake-transition regime. The case of a cylinder ...

      Polymers prepared using cleavable initiators: Synthesis, characterization and degradation 

      Rikkou-Kalourkoti, Maria D.; Patrickios, Costas S. (2011)
      Following the great interest in polymers based on degradable monomers and degradable cross-linkers, there is now an increasing activity in the controlled synthesis of polymers using degradable initiators. The degradation ...

      Spark ignitable Ni-Al ball-milled powders for bonding applications 

      Gunduz, I. E.; Kyriakou, A.; Vlachos, N.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Doumanidis, C. C.; Son, S.; Rebholz, Claus (2014)
      Ball milling of aluminum (Al) and nickel (Ni) particles at the NiAl composition can produce reactive powders with low spark ignition thresholds similar to magnetron sputtered multilayer foils (MFs). Such powders can replace ...

      Systematic assessment of rigid internal combustion engine dynamic coupling 

      Rideout, D. G.; Stein, J. L.; Louca, Loucas S. (2008)
      Accurate estimation of engine vibrations is essential in the design of new engines, engine mounts, and the vehicle frames to which they are attached. Mount force prediction has traditionally been simplified by assuming ...

      Thixotropic flow past a cylinder 

      Syrakos, A.; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Alexandrou, Andreas N. (2014)
      We study the flow of a thixotropic fluid around a cylinder. The rheology of the fluid is described by means of a structural viscoplastic model based on the Bingham constitutive equation, regularised using the Papanastasiou ...

      Vortex shedding lock-on in a periodic freestream flow past a circular cylinder 

      Olinger, D. J.; Alexandrou, Andreas N.; Dutka, J. (Publ by ASME, 1993)
      Vortex lock-on phenomena in flow past a circular cylinder with a periodic component superimposed on the mean free stream flow is investigated using concepts from dynamical systems (chaos) theory. Numerical results show ...
