Intermittent turbulence in inclined gravity currents
Lianzheng Cui, Graham O. Hughes, Maarten van Reeuwijk
Inclined gravity currents on shallow slopes can exhibit pronounced turbulence intermittency. Using direct numerical simulations, we investigate this behaviour for a temporal gravit…
Building drag and shielding in a realistic urban environment
Jingzi Huang, Omduth Coceal, Marco Placidi +2
Shielding by upstream buildings is a fundamental control on urban drag, yet its influence remains poorly quantified in realistic urban environments. Here, we investigate shielding…
Multi-scale flow analysis for scale-aware urban-canopy models
Jingzi Huang, Maarten van Reeuwijk
As Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models approach hectometric resolution, they increasingly enter a regime where urban heterogeneity is only partially resolved and the assumpti…
Parameter estimation for land-surface models using Neural Physics
Ruiyue Huang, Claire E. Heaney, Maarten van Reeuwijk
We propose a novel inverse-modelling approach that estimates the parameters of a simple land-surface model (LSM) by assimilating data into a differentiable, physics-based forward m…
The drag length is key to quantifying tree canopy drag
Dipanjan Majumdar, Giulio Vita, Rubina Ramponi +2
The effects of trees on urban flows are often determined using computational fluid dynamics approaches which typically use a quadratic drag formulation based on the leaf-area densi…
Energy and environmental impacts of air-to-air heat pumps in a mid-latitude city
David Meyer, Robert Schoetter, Maarten van Reeuwijk
Heat pumps (HPs) have emerged as a key technology for reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. This study evaluates the potential switch to air-to-air HPs (AAHPs) in Toulo…
