On the transition to turbulence of a viscoplastic fluid past a confined cylinder: A numerical study
(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 ...
Effect of turbulent pulsating flow around a near-wall submerged cylinder on the potential motion of bed and suspended loads
(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 ...
Thixotropic flow past a cylinder
(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 ...
