Seminar Particulate flows
Andrea Prosperetti

Details:

Particulate flows are very commonly encountered in science and technology,
but their theoretical description is far from well developed. After a brief
description of the most widespread approaches for the (more-or-less) direct
numerical simulation of fluid-particle interactions, the talk will
describe the basis of the Physalis approach to the problem. Some
considerations on the numerical implementation of the method on GPU-based
computers will be offered, followed by a description of some applications to
particles in turbulence, spinning particles and flows in porous media.
Go back to the agenda.
