Article: Turbulence-induced vibration in annular flow of a rigid cylinder mounted on a cantilever beam
This study investigates the fluid–structure interaction of two coaxial cylinders separated by a Newtonian fluid under turbulent axial flow. The theoretical framework treats the inner cylinder as a rigid body mounted on a flexible blade modeled as a Rayleigh beam. The goals of this study are to determine the free vibration modes and frequencies, identify the fluid-elastic instability threshold, and establish an analytical expression for the mean-square displacement of the structure.
Nonlinear Cauchy Elasticity
Most theories and applications of elasticity rely on an energy function that depends on the strains from which the stresses can be derived. This is the traditional setting of Green elasticity, also known as hyper-elasticity. However, in its original form the theory of elasticity does not assume the existence of a strain energy function. In this case, called Cauchy elasticity, stresses are directly related to the strains. Since the emergence of modern elasticity in the 1940s, research on Cauchy elasticity has been relatively limited.
Junior Professorship in Multiphase flow heat and mass transfer
The Polytechnic University of Hauts-de-France (https://www.uphf.fr) is offering a junior professorship in Multiphase flow heat and mass transfer with phase change.
MSc position in computational Earth sciences
We are looking to fill an MSc position at the Department of Marine Geosciences, University of Haifa. The research will focus on numerical modelling of the heat flow evolution of the Dead Sea basin considering basin structure and temporal sedimentation rates.
