Fluctuation effects on 3D Lagrangian mean and Eulerian mean fluid motion

چکیده
We formulate equations for the slow time dynamics of fluid motion that self consistently account for the effects of the variability upon the mean. The time-average effects of the fluctuations introduce nonlinear dispersion that acts to spatially smooth the transport velocity of the mean flow relative to its circulation or momentum velocity, by the inversion of a Helmholtz operator whose length scale corresponds to the covariance of the fluctuations.

Averaged Lagrangians and the mean dynamical effects of fluctuations in continuum mechanics
We begin by placing the Generalized Lagrangian Mean (GLM) equations for a compressible adiabatic fluid into the Euler-Poincaré (EP) variational framework of fluid dynamics, for an averaged Lagrangian. We then state the EP Averaging Lemma – that GLM averaged equations arise from GLM averaged Lagrangians in the EP framework. Next, we derive a set of approximate small amplitude GLM equations (glm ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Scaling Effect on Bubble Dynamics in a Turbulent Flow around a Hydrofoil
A Lagrangian-Eulerian numerical scheme for the investigation of bubble motion in turbulent flow is developed. The flow is analyzed in the Eulerian reference frame while the bubble motion is simulated in the Lagrangian one. Finite volume scheme is used, and SIMPLEC algorithm is utilized for the pressure and velocity linkage. The Reynolds stresses are modeled by the RSTM model of Launder. Upwind ...
متن کاملMean drift induced by free and forced dilational waves
The mean drift velocity induced by longitudinal dilational waves in an elastic film is studied theoretically on the basis of a Lagrangian description of motion. The film is horizontal and situated at the interface between two viscous fluids. For time-damped dilational waves we let the film ~i! move freely with the mean fluid velocity at the interface, and ~ii! be kept fixed, i.e., having no mea...

This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...
