The project in memory of anthropologist, writer and politician Darcy Ribeiro is analyzed, with emphasis on the relationship he had with his personal archives and the creation of the Darcy Ribeiro Foundation, established to give continuity to his 'legacy.' It highlights the influences present in the formation of his archive and presents an ethnography that seeks to restore the historicity of the...

This paper presents a two-grid method for solving systems of partial differential equations modelling free flow coupled with porous media flow. This work considers both the coupled Stokes and Darcy as well as the coupled Navier-Stokes and Darcy problems. The numerical schemes proposed are based on combinations of the continuous finite element method and the discontinuous Galerkin method. Numeri...

the value of the permeability in fluid flow through porous media is important for process investigation. in low reynolds number, the classic darcy’s law is suitable for simulation of fluid flow. in this paper, an experimental study for evaluation of preformed fiber permeability has been done. also, the deviations from the classical darcy law by experimental and numerical simulation of the navie...

We study the Darcy problem with log-normal permeability, modeling the fluid flow in a heterogeneous porous medium. A perturbation approach is adopted, expanding the solution in Taylor series around the nominal value of the permeability. The resulting recursive deterministic problem satisfied by the expected value of the stochastic solution, analytically derived and studied in [4], is discretize...

A novel numerical method is presented for the simulation of flow in porous media, based on a mesoscopic-scale modelling using smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The method is demonstrated to provide encouraging results for both saturated and unsaturated porous media flow. The Darcy law is confirmed for low drift velocities in a saturated medium, while nonlinear behaviour is observed for higher va...

Gravity-driven flow of concentrated suspensions (solid volume fraction ϕ>0.50) of non-brownian spherical particles through a channel contraction at low Reynolds number is studied experimentally. The abrupt change in the flow area at the contraction forms distinct shear-rate regions having different fluid pressures, which are related to the concept of particle pressure. A model involving particl...

analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

Simulations were carried out using penalty finite element analysis with bi-quadratic elements to investigate the influence of uniform and non-uniform heating of bottom wall within a trapezoidal enclosure of various inclination angles ðuÞ. Parametric study has been carried out for a wide range of Rayleigh number ðRaÞ ð10 6 Ra 6 10Þ, Prandtl number ðPrÞ ð0:026 6 Pr 6 988:24Þ and Darcy number ðDaÞ...
