Average-Based Adaptive Grid Refinement in Hybrid LES
Grid adaptation with refinement criteria based on time-averaged quantities is coupled with a hybrid LES turbulence model to simulate a turbulent flow behind a backward-facing step. Two averaging strategies are...

Detached Eddy Simulations of the Flow Around the Japan Bulk Carrier (JBC)
The accurate prediction of the velocity field in the wake of a ship is a challenge of crucial importance since it affects the optimal design of the propeller rotating in a non-uniform velocity field. This non-...

Wake Prediction of a Marine Propeller: The Role of the Turbulence Closures
The marine propeller is the principal ship component to provide the necessary propulsion and when working at the aft of a ship, the propeller operates in a heterogeneous field because of the wake, created by t...

Assessment of Turbulence Models for Flow Around Three-Dimensional Geometries
This paper presents a computational study of flow around three-dimensional geometries as the Ahmed body, which is a classical test case for automotive flow, but also as the JBC (Japan Bulk Carrier)which was fi...

Free-Surface Viscous Flow Solution Methods for Ship Hydrodynamics
The simulation of viscous free-surface water flow is a subject that has reached a certain maturity and is nowadays used in industrial applications, like the simulation of the flow around ships. While almost al...
