Computational study of the dispersively modified Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation
(2012)We analyze and implement fully discrete schemes for periodic initial value problems for a general class of dispersively modified Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equations. Time discretizations are constructed using linearly implicit ...

Discrete multi-physics simulations of diffusive and convective mass transfer in boundary layers containing motile cilia in lungs
(2018)In this paper, the mass transfer coefficient (permeability) of boundary layers containing motile cilia is investigated by means of discrete multi-physics. The idea is to understand the main mechanisms of mass transport ...

Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation
(2009)Segmented cross sectional MRI images were used to construct 3D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in 5 healthy volunteers. Geometric features such as bifurcation angle, planarity angle, asymmetry angle tortuosity ...

Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation
(2011)Segmented cross-sectional MRI images were used to construct 3-D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in ten healthy volunteers. Geometric features, such as bifurcation angle, internal carotid artery (ICA) angle, ...

Large Eddy Simulation of near-bed pipelines in oscillatory flow
(2018)A series of unsteady, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the incompressible, oscillatory flow around a near-bed pipeline is presented. A flow at Reynolds number equal to Reαo=20,000 with respect to the oscillatory ...

Nanoscopic cationic methacrylate star homopolymers: Synthesis by group transfer polymerization, characterization and evaluation as transfection reagents
(2004)Seven star polymers with degrees of polymerization (DPs) of the arms from 10 to 100 and dimensions in the nanometer range were prepared using sequential group transfer polymerization of 2-(dimethylamino)-ethyl methacrylate ...

On the analogy between streamlined magnetic and solid obstacles
(2009)Analogies are elaborated in the qualitative description of two systems: the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow moving through a region where an external local magnetic field (magnetic obstacle) is applied and the ordinary ...

Synthesis and characterization of shell-cross-linked polymer networks and large-core star polymers: Effect of the volume of the cross-linking mixture
(2009)Group transfer polymerization and sequential addition of monomer and cross-linker were employed for the preparation of two new polymer structures, one of a polymer network and the other of a star polymer. The synthesis was ...

Three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic flows over an obstacle in a confined geometry
(Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Πολυτεχνική Σχολή / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Engineering, 2012-12)Στην παρούσα διατριβή παρουσιάζεται η υδροδυναμική και μαγνητοϋδροδυναμική ροή που αναπτύσσεται γύρω από ένα κύλινδρο κυκλικής διατομής, σε γεωμετρίες περιορισμένες από σταθερά τοιχώματα. Η επίδραση του περιορισμού της ...
