Summary: The experimental results show that NACA0015 airfoil models with leading-edge tubercles do not experience a sudden loss of lift in the poststall regime and exhibit higher lift coefficients. Among them, the W15 model performs the best in terms of maximum lift coefficient, stall angle, aerodynamic performance (C-L/C-D), and the minimum fluctuating lift coefficient in both pre- and poststall regimes.

Summary: In this study, thermal Lattice Boltzmann Technique combined with the Ghost Fluid method was used to simulate the flow and heat transfer rate around a NACA 0015 airfoil in the presence of an external magnetic field source. The effects of Hartmann and Reynolds numbers, magnetic field angle, and airfoil attack angle on flow and heat transfer characteristics were investigated. The results showed that with an increase in the Reynolds number, the drag and lift coefficients decrease while the Nusselt number increases, and the total entropy generation rate of the system reaches a maximum around gamma = 60.

Summary: An experimental study was conducted on the cavitating behavior of a NACA0012 hydrofoil with an aspect ratio of 0.02 in a slit channel. High-speed visualization technique with a sampling rate of over 100 kHz was used to investigate the formation and development of cavities in a quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flow. The most energetic modes of unsteady cavitation flow were identified using dynamic mode decomposition, revealing the presence of second and third modes for the first time. Experimental data on the reverse motion of the vapor-gas mixture into the inner region of supercavitation were also presented.

Summary: A new adaptive finite volume method is proposed for the simulation of wave problems in the time domain. The method discretizes the transient wave equations in time and space, and utilizes a vertex-centered finite volume method with both cell-centered and edge-midpoint. The method also includes a mesh adaptation procedure based on energy-norm error-estimates, allowing for multiple adaptations within a single error estimation.

Summary: In this paper, we investigate the simulation of fluid deformable surfaces using surface finite elements and a semi-implicit time stepping scheme. The surface is modeled by incompressible surface Navier-Stokes equations with bending forces, and conservation of the enclosed volume is enforced. The numerical approach includes higher order surface parameterizations, a Taylor-Hood element for the surface Navier-Stokes part, appropriate approximations of the geometric quantities of the surface, mesh redistribution, and a Lagrange multiplier for the constraint. Computational examples illustrate the solid-fluid duality of fluid deformable surfaces and demonstrate optimal convergence properties for different sub-problems.

Summary: The study investigates the performance of a NACA 63(4)-021 hydrofoil in motion under and in close proximity of a free surface. Results show that the interaction between the hydrofoil-motion induced waves on the free surface and the hydrofoil can mitigate flow separation characteristics and delay stall, resulting in improved hydrofoil performance. Significant increase in maximum lift coefficient and overall performance improvement are observed, but there is a decrease in lift-to-drag ratio at lower angles of attack.

Summary: This study established a compressible, three-dimensional air-gun bubble model in OpenFOAM using finite volume and volume of fluid methods to investigate the characteristics of air-gun bubble pulsation and surrounding flow-field pressures produced by various opening areas and forms. The study quantitatively analyzed the maximum horizontal bubble displacement, main primary pulse, and bubble pulse, revealing that different air-gun opening areas result in variations in bubble expansion and collapse times and lead to different bubble shapes during the pulsation cycle. The system with the largest airgun opening area had the largest pressure wave primary pulse.

Summary: This study investigated and compared the compression responses and energy absorption capacities of coral sand and silica sand at a strain rate of approximately 1000 s-1. The results showed that coral sand had significantly higher energy absorption capacity than silica sand due to its higher compressibility. The study findings suggest that using poorly graded coral sand can improve its energy absorption capacity.

Summary: This study investigates the double-average turbulence characteristics of combined wave-current flow over a rough bed with different spacing arrangements. The results show that a spacing ratio of p/r=4 offers the highest resistance to the flow, and the double-average Reynolds stress decreases throughout the flow depth. The advection of momentum-flux of normal stress shows an increase at the outer layer and a decrease near the bed region after wave imposition. Maximum turbulence kinetic energy production and diffusion occur at different layers. The turbulence structure is strongly anisotropic at the bottom region and near the outer layer, with a decrease in anisotropy observed with an increase in roughness spacing.

Summary: This study investigated the dynamic response characteristics and damage modes of pile wharves subjected to underwater explosions. The results showed that the main damaged components of the pile wharf were the piles, and inclined piles had a higher probability of moderate or more significant damage compared to vertical piles. The study also suggested that replacing inclined piles with alternative optimized structures benefits the blast resistance of pile wharves.

Summary: The deep-water bridge is more vulnerable to earthquake damage than the bridge standing in air. The larger blocking ratio has a significant impact on the added mass coefficient, which requires further comprehensive study. The generation mechanism of block effect is analyzed using numerical simulation software ANSYS Fluent. The results show that the recirculation zone with focus reduces the pressure on the back surface of the cylinder, resulting in the peak value of in-line force not occurring synchronously with the peak value of acceleration. The change in position and intensity of the recirculation zone with focus, as well as the change in water flow around the cylinder surface, are identified as the generation mechanism of the block effect, which has a 10% influence on the hydrodynamic force. The changing rule of the added mass coefficient with blocking ratio is discussed in detail, and a modification approach to the current added mass coefficient calculation method is suggested. Physical experiments are conducted to validate the modification approach, and the results show that it is accurate and can be used in further study and real practice.
