  • Noise radiation from a ducted rotor in a swirling-translating flow 
    Quaranta, Erika (Cranfield University, 2009-12)
    This PhD dissertation investigates the noise radiation produced by a rotor inside a duct, which is convected by a swirling-translating mean flow. The study is based on an extension of Gennaretti's and Morino's boundary ...
  • A novel multi-dimensional Eulerian approach to computational solid dynamics 
    Barton, Philip Trevor (Cranfield University, 2009-12)
    Many problems in solid dynamics involve moving boundaries, finite elastoplastic deformations, and strong non-linear waves. Continuum modelling of such events is difficult on account of these characteristics, and there exist ...
  • Shock-induced turbulent mixing at high density ratios. 
    Probyn, Michael (Cranfield UniversitySATM, 2015-05)
    Restricted under Crown Copyright. Only available to MOD students/employees with MOD ID (alternatively written permission from Supervisor or MOD).
  • Supersonic combustion modelling using the conditional moment closure approach 
    Picciani, Mark (Cranfield University, 2014)
    This work presents a novel algorithm for supersonic combustion modelling. The method involved coupling the Conditional Moment Closure (CMC) model to a fully compressible, shock capturing, high-order flow solver, with the ...
  • Turbulent flow simulations around the front wing of a racing car 
    Liang, Chen (Cranfield University, 2010-07)
    Aerodynamics has played a more and more important role in motorsports for maximising the race car performance. Amongst all the aerodynamic devices of race car, the front wing plays a vital role. In order to evaluate ...
  • Very high-order methods for 3D arbitrary unstructured grids 
    Tsoutsanis, Panagiotis (Cranfield University, 2009-08)
    Understanding the motion of fluids is crucial for the development and analysis of new designs and processes in science and engineering. Unstructured meshes are used in this context since they allow the analysis of the ...
