Manchester, Emily Louise (author), Pirola, S. (author), Pirola, Sergio (author), Mastroiacovo, Giorgio (author), Polvani, Gianluca (author), Pontone, Gianluca (author), Xu, Xiao Yun (author)Aortic valve disease is often treated with bioprosthetic valves. An alternative treatment is aortic valve neocuspidization which is a relatively new reparative procedure whereby the three aortic cusps are replaced with patient pericardium or bovine tissues. Recent research indicates that aortic blood flow is disturbed, and turbulence effects...journal article 2024

Ouro, Pablo (author), Juez, Carmelo (author), Franca, M.J. (author)Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) are used to investigate the governing processes involved in mass and momentum transfer between the flow in the main channel and symmetrically-distributed lateral bank cavities. In-cavity free-surface velocities, based on laboratory measurements made in an open channel, are used to validate the numerical results. A...journal article 2020

van Hooft, J.A. (author), Popinet, Stéphane (author), van Heerwaarden, Chiel C. (author), van der Linden, S.J.A. (author), de Roode, S.R. (author), van de Wiel, B.J.H. (author)We present a proof-of-concept for the adaptive mesh refinement method applied to atmospheric boundary-layer simulations. Such a method may form an attractive alternative to static grids for studies on atmospheric flows that have a high degree of scale separation in space and/or time. Examples include the diurnal cycle and a convective...journal article 2018

Talstra, H. (author)The Ph.D. thesis “Large-scale turbulence structures in shallow separating flows” by Harmen Talstra is the result of a Ph.D. research project on large-scale shallow-flow turbulence, which has been performed in the Environmental Fluid Mechanics Laboratory at Delft University of Technology. The dynamics of quasi two-dimensional turbulence...doctoral thesis 2011
