Thermal wakefield structure in plasma acceleration processes: insights from fluid models and PIC simulations
Daniele Simeoni, Andrea Renato Rossi, Gianmarco Parise +2
We focus on the process of plasma acceleration in the presence of non-negligible thermal effects, wherein a driver of relativistic electrons perturbs a warm neutral plasma and gene…
Lagrangian analysis of turbulent blood flow in the human left heart
Fabio Guglietta, Martino Andrea Scarpolini, Francesco Viola +1
We present a Lagrangian analysis of turbulent blood flow in the human left heart using high-fidelity simulations based on a patient-specific anatomical model. Leveraging a fully co…
Deformation of ellipsoidal droplets in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence
Fabio Guglietta, Diego Taglienti, Mauro Sbragaglia
We study the statistics of deformation of neutrally buoyant droplets in homogeneous isotropic turbulence (HIT), wherein the characteristic droplet size is smaller than the char…
Immersed boundary - lattice Boltzmann method for wetting problems
Elisa Bellantoni, Fabio Guglietta, Francesca Pelusi +5
We develop a mesoscale computational model to describe the interaction of a droplet with a solid. The model is based on the hybrid combination of the immersed boundary and the latt…
