A team of researchers from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, the University of Twente and Università di Pisa has used equations from fluid dynamics to find the optimum arrangement of rods in a ...
Flow-induced vibrations (FIVs) in nuclear fuel assemblies can cause fretting wear and costly unplanned reactor outages, yet fundamental mechanistic understanding and predictive modelling of FIVs in ...

Colloidal particles have become increasingly important for research as vehicles of biochemical agents. In future, it will be possible to study their behaviour much more efficiently than before by ...
Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) describes the mutual coupling between a deformable or moving structure and the surrounding fluid flow. In many natural and engineered systems, flow-induced forces ...
