Traditional CFD Boundary Conditions Applied to Blood Analog Flow through a Patient-Specific Aortic Coarctation

Flow of a blood analog is modeled through a patient-specific aortic coarctation using ANSYS Fluent software. Details of the patient data (aortic geometry and prescribed flow conditions) were provided by the MICCAI-STACOM CFD Challenge website. The objective is to predict a blood pressure difference across the rigid coarctation under both rest and exercise (stress) conditions. The supplied STL g...

Kriging-based optimization applied to flow control

The automatic optimization of flow control devices is a delicate issue, due to the drastic computational time related to unsteady high-fidelity flow analyses and the possible multimodality of the objective function. Thus, we experiment in this article the use of kriging-based algorithms to optimize flow control parameters, since these methods have shown their efficiency for global optimization ...

Optimization Methods Applied to Aerodynamic Flow Control

This study deals with the use of optimization algorithms to determine efficient parameters of flow control devices. To improve the performance of systems characterized by detached flows and vortex shedding, the use of flow control devices such as oscillatory jets, are intensively studied, using numerical as well as experimental methods. However, the determination of efficient control parameters...
