The main purpose of this paper is to develop a novel thermal lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) based on finite volume (FV) formulation. Validation of the suggested formulation is performed by simulating plane Poiseuille, backward-facing step and flow over circular cylinder. For this purpose, a cell-… |

A graphic processing unit (GPU) implementation of the multicomponent lattice Boltzmann equation with multirange interactions for soft-glassy materials ["glassy" lattice Boltzmann (LB)] is presented. Performance measurements for flows under shear indicate a GPU/CPU speed up in excess of 10 for 1024(… |

Chandipura vesiculovirus (CHPV) is a rapidly emerging pathogen responsible for causing acute encephalitis. Due to its widespread occurrence in Asian and African countries, this has become a global threat, and there is an urgent need to design an effective and nonallergenic vaccine against this… |

We study the Poiseuille flow of a soft-glassy material above the jamming point, where the material flows like a complex fluid with Herschel-Bulkley rheology. Microscopic plastic rearrangements and the emergence of their spatial correlations induce cooperativity flow behavior whose effect is… |

This paper investigates the problem of quantifying longevity risk in a quantile perspective. In this field, the idea of deepening the expected changes of future mortality rates over a single year is gaining. In the following the authors propose an approach which combines a stochastic model for the… |

In this paper, we use the Z-control approach to get further insight on the role of awareness in the management of epidemics that, just like Covid-19, display a high rate of overexposure because of the large number of asymptomatic people. We focus on a SEIR model including a overexposure mechanism… |

Numerical results on the translocation of long biopolymers through mid-sized and wide pores are presented. The simulations are based on a novel methodology which couples molecular motion to a mesoscopic fluid solvent. Thousands of events of long polymers (up to 8000 monomers) are monitored as they… |

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to present numerical results about phase separation of binary fluid mixtures quenched by contact with cold walls.
Design/methodology/approach - The thermal phase separation is simulated by using a hybrid lattice Boltzmann method that solves the continuity… |
