Assessment of heat transfer and Mach number effects on high-speed turbulent boundary layers
Michele Cogo, Umberto Baù, Mauro Chinappi +2
High-speed vehicles experience a highly challenging environment in which the free-stream Mach number and surface temperature greatly influence aerodynamic drag and heat transfer. T…
EH-DPD: a Dissipative Particle Dynamics approach to Electro-Hydrodynamics
Alberto Gubbiotti, Mauro Chinappi, Carlo Massimo Casciola
Electrohydrodynamics is crucial in many nanofluidic and biotechnological applications. In such small scales, the complexity due to the coupling of fluid dynamics with the dynamics…
Electroosmosis in nanopores: Computational methods and technological applications
Alberto Gubbiotti, Matteo Baldelli, Giovanni Di Muccio +3
Electroosmosis is a fascinating effect where liquid motion is induced by an applied electric field. Counter ions accumulate in the vicinity of charged surfaces, triggering a coupli…
Base flow decomposition for complex moving objects in linear hydrodynamics: application to helix-shaped flagellated microswimmers
Ji Zhang, Mauro Chinappi, Luca Biferale
The motion of microswimmers in complex flows is ruled by the interplay between swimmer propulsion and the dynamics induced by the fluid velocity field. Here we study the motion of…
Geometrically Induced Selectivity and Unidirectional Electroosmosis in Uncharged Nanopores
Giovanni Di Muccio, Blasco Morozzo della Rocca, Mauro Chinappi
Selectivity towards positive and negative ions in nanopores is often associated with electroosmotic flow, the control of which is pivotal in several micro-nanofluidic technologies.…
Mobility tensor of a sphere moving on a super-hydrophobic wall: application to particle separation
Daniela Pimponi, Mauro Chinappi, Paolo Gualtieri +1
The paper addresses the hydrodynamic behavior of a sphere close to a micro-patterned superhydrophobic surface described in terms of alternated no-slip and perfect-slip stripes. Phy…
Hydrodynamics of flagellated microswimmers near free-slip interfaces
Daniela Pimponi, Mauro Chinappi, Paolo Gualtieri +1
The hydrodynamics of a flagellated microorganism is investigated when swimming close to a planar free-slip surface by means of numerical solu- tions of the Stokes equations obtaine…
