  1. 6. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Modeling of a Free Surface Flow

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Mathieu Marmier; [2023]
    Keywords : CFD; Free Surface Flow; VOF; STAR-CCM ; Multiphase Simulation; Nuclear Engineering; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : This project deals with the CFD modelling of a free surface flow. The aim is to develop and validate a fast and accurate numerical model for stratified two-phase flows. Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase model is employed. The purpose is to use the developed numerical model for the design of an element within a compact nuclear reactor. READ MORE

  3. 7. Comparison between Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics and Position Based Dynamics for real-time water simulation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Rasmus Andersson; Erica Tjernell; [2023]
    Keywords : Fluid simulation; Lagrangian fluid simulation; Smoothed-Particle Hydronamics; Position Based Dynamics; Vätskesimulering; Lagransk vätskesimulering; Smoothed-Particle Hydronamics; Position Based Dynamics;

    Abstract : Two of the methods common in video game fluid simulation are SmoothedParticle Hydrodynamics (SPH), and Position Based Dynamics (PBD). They are both Lagrangian methods of fluid simulation. SPH has been used for many years in offline simulations and has truthful visuals, but is not as stable as the newer method PBD when using larger timesteps. READ MORE

  4. 8. Cable Shape Optimization - Drag Reduction of Cables Used in Marine Applications

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Simon Garpenquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Tunnel Experiment; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Aerodynamic Forces; Drag Reduction; Shape Optimization; Flow around Cylinders; Yacht Racing;

    Abstract : It is important to understand the aerodynamic properties of tensioned cables (e.g. used in suspension bridges and yacht riggings), both for drag reduction and vibrational suppression purposes. READ MORE

  5. 9. Adjoint-based Formulation for Shape Optimization Problems in Computational Fluid Dynamics

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Anton Scotte; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A continuous adjoint formulation for exterior optimization of Dirichlet data on the boundary for potential flow applications has been developed in this thesis. This has been performed by utilizing boundary integral methods for both the primal problem (Laplace’s equation) and for the corresponding adjoint equation (Poisson’s equation) on the unit disc.

  6. 10. Surface and Subsurface Flow Connection and Dominating Runoff Mechanism in Hillslope of Tarfala, Northern Sweden.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Namika Maharjan; [2023]
    Keywords : Advanced Terrestrial Simulator ATS ; hillslope connectivity; tracer test; hydrological modeling; parameter analysis; sub artic regions; hillslope hydrology;

    Abstract : The Sub artic regions are becoming increasingly important due to the effects of climate change. In northern Sweden, thawing of permafrost has led to significant increases in annual minimum flows in several catchments. READ MORE
