In this paper, we consider an infinitely long viscoelastic thread in a tube filled with a Newtonian fluid. We apply Jeffreys model as the rheological relation for the thread. The thread moves due to a constant pressure gradient, but so slowly that the quasi-static creeping flow approximation is applicable. We investigate the effect of the ratio of viscosities, fluid elasticity, confinement and ...

The following work presents a way to simulate the nano-particle behavior in a flow by coupling the Lattice Boltzmann Method to a rigid body physics engine. By extending the basic fluid simulation for the treatment of curved particle surfaces and by a force interaction method, the fluid forces acting on the nano-particles can be calculated. With this force interaction between the fluid and the p...

Objective: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common diseases. Coronary angiography (CAG) is an important apparatus used to diagnose and treat this disease. Since angiography is performed through exposure to ionizing radiation, it can cause harmful effects induced by double-stranded breaks in DNA which is potentially life-threatening damage. The aim of the present study is to inves...

We consider the numerical investigation of two hyperbolic shallow water models. We focus on the treatment of the hyperbolic part. We first recall some efficient finite volume solvers for the classical Saint-Venant system. Then we study their extensions to a new multilayer Saint-Venant system. Finally, we use a kinetic solver to perform some numerical tests which prove that the 2D multilayer Sai...
