Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to submit your research to this Special Issue. Despite the considerable recent advances in mathematical theory and numerical techniques for fluids, a multitude of challenging issues remain. Given the existing high-intensity investigations, it is very important to present every achievement to the research community, and a logical way to do so is by taking advantage of open-access publishing. This Special Issue in Axioms aims to provide such an opportunity to a wider range of researchers working in Fluid Dynamics. That is why it is our intention to set a wide scope for this Special Issue. We encourage the submitting of high-quality studies of boundary-value problems; developments in the numerical schemes; numerical, asymptotical, and exact solutions to concrete problems, analytical and numerical analyses of stability problems; and research into instabilities, bifurcations, and any other matters of such a kind with applications in Fluid Dynamics. Our scope covers but is not restricted to vortex dynamics, free boundary flows, water waves, shallow water and thin films, viscous incompressible fluid, stratified and compressible fluid, electro/magnetohydrodynamics, fluid–structure interactions, hemodynamics, microfluidics, and coupling the Keller–Segel systems to hydrodynamics.

The present work proposes the application of a computational methodology based on the coupling of the Fourier Pseudospectral Method (FPSM) and the Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) for conducting flow simulations over slender airfoils. This methodology, termed IMERSPEC, leverages the benefits of both high accuracy and low computational cost inherent in pseudospectral methods, thanks to the utilization of the Fast Fourier Transform algorithm. IBM is employed to impose non-periodic boundary conditions in the Navier–Stokes equations, addressing the requirement of periodicity at boundaries for FPSM convergence and to accurately represent the immersed slender airfoil in the flow. The aerodynamic behavior of the analyzed profiles was assessed by calculating lift and drag coefficients, which were then compared with existing literature results. Consistently favorable outcomes were observed, particularly in flows at lower Reynolds numbers, demonstrating the effectiveness of the IMERSPEC methodology for simulating complex flows computationally. Additionally, weight functions, fundamental to IBM, are employed flexibly for aerodynamic force calculations. Specifically, within the same simulation, a Cubic function is utilized for drag calculation while a Hat function is employed for lift calculation, yielding results more closely aligned with the literature’s findings. This approach offers an alternative to previously proposed methods for IBM implementation. Full article

This study explores the problem of describing viscous fluid motion for Navier–Stokes equations in curved channels, which is important in applications like hemodynamics and pipeline transport. Channel curvature leads to vortex flows and closed vortex zones. Asymptotic models of the flux problem are useful for describing viscous fluid motion in long pipes, thus considering geometric parameters like pipe diameter and characteristic length. This study provides a representation for the vorticity vector and energy dissipation in the flow problem for a curved channel, thereby determining the magnitude of vorticity and energy dissipation depending on the channel’s central line curvature and torsion. The accuracy of the asymptotic formulas are estimated in terms of small parameter powers. Numerical calculations for helical tubes demonstrate the effectiveness of the asymptotic formulas.
