Development of an efficient finite volume computational platform for the simulation of complex flows of complex fluids governed by the Rolie-Poly model
The flow of non-Newtonian fluids, also known as complex fluids, is an important area of fluid mechanics due to their applications in industries such as food processing, mining, chemical and plastic industries. It is therefore essential to understand the flow and general behaviour of such fluids. …

An Approximation for the Twenty-One-Moment Maximum-Entropy Model of Rarefied Gas Dynamics
… to predict continuum and moderately rarefied flow offers many modelling and numerical advantages over traditional methods. The maximum-entropy family of moment closures offers models described by hyperbolic systems of balance laws. In particular, the twenty-one moment model of the …

High order stochastic transport and Lagrangian data assimilation
… tracer advection in a deterministic swirl flow, stochastic flow past a cylinder, and stochastic lid-driven cavity flow. We show that our schemes improve the consistency between reconstructed DO realizations and the corresponding MC realizations, and that we achieve the expected order of …

Quantitative methods to regulate angiogenesis: applications to cancer and cardiovascular disease
… element numerical method with the benchmark lid-driven cavity flow problem. Numerical simulations show that the Newtonian model gives similar velocity profiles in the 2-dimensional cavity given different height and width dimensions, given the same Reynolds number. Conversely, the SDF model …

Chaos in Pulsed Laminar Flow
Fluid mixing is a challenging problem in laminar flow systems. Chaotic advection can play an important role in enhancing mixing in such flow. In this thesis, different approaches are used to enhance fluid mixing in two laminar flow systems. In the first system, chaos is generated in a flow between …
