Abstract:
The topic of this thesis is fast and accurate simulation techniques used for simulations of flow and transport in porous media, in particular petroleum reservoirs. Fast and accurate simulation techniques are becoming increasingly important for reservoir management and development, as the geological models increase in size and level of detail and require more computational resources to be utilized. The multiscale framework is a promising approach to facilitate simulation of detailed geological models. In contrast to traditional upscaling approaches, the multiscale methods have the detailed geol

Abstract:
This thesis is about the stabilization of the numerical solution of the Euler and Navier- Stokes equations of compressible flow. When simulating numerically the flow equations, if no stabilization is added, the solution presents non-physical (but numerical) oscillations. For this reason the stabilization of partial differential equations and of the fluid dynamics equations is of great importance. In the framework of the so-called variational multiscale stabilization, we present here a stabilization method for compressible flow.

We focus on computing p-quantiles and failure probabilities of the quantity of interest.

The human placenta is characterised by a unique circulatory arrangement, with numerous villous trees containing fetal vessels immersed in maternal blood. Placental tissue therefore manifests a multiscale structure balancing microscopic delivery of nutrients and macroscopic flow.

Most engineering systems have some degree of uncertainty in their input and operating parameters. The interaction of these parameters leads to the uncertain nature of the system performance and outputs. In order to quantify this uncertainty in a computational model, it is necessary to include the full range of uncertainty in the model. Currently, there are two major technical barriers to achieving this: (1) in many situations -particularly those involving multiscale phenomena-the stochastic nature of input parameters is not well defined, and is usually approximated by limited experimental data

Abstract:
Multiscale mathematical modeling of flows containing particles is conducted in this study using computational fluid dynamics and molecular dynamics. The first study considered continuous media interaction of macro-scale fluid and micro-scale solid particles using computational fluid dynamics and rigid particle dynamics. This study investigates the potential enhancement of heat transfer properties of particulate fluid as well as the effect of injected particles on fluid profiles, and pressure on walls under different particle injection conditions. In the second part of this research, the m

Abstract:
Cette thèse se concentre sur le développement d'une méthode précise et efficace pour la simulation des grandes échelles (LES) des écoulements turbulents. Une approche de la LES basée sur la méthode variationnelle multi-échelles (VMS) est considérée. La VMS applique aux équations de la dynamique des fluides une séparation d'échelles a priori sans recours à des hypothèses sur les conditions aux limites ou sur l'uniformité du maillage. Afin d'assurer effectivement une séparation d'échelles dans l'espace des nombres d'onde associé, nous choisissons d'utiliser les ondelettes de deuxième génération

Abstract:
The extraordinary complexity of turbulence has motivated the study of some of its key features in flows with similar structure but simpler or even trivial dynamics. Recently, a novel class of such flows has been developed in the laboratory by applying multiscale electromagnetic forcing to a thin layer of conducting fluid. In spite of being stationary, planar, and laminar these flows have been shown to resemble turbulent ones in terms of energy spectra and particle dispersion. In this thesis, some extensions of these flows are investigated through simulations of a layer-averaged model carried o

Abstract:
We develop, validate, and apply an efficient multiscale method for the simulation of a large class of low-speed internal rarefied gas flows, which are critical to a range of future technologies. The method is based on an existing multiscale approach for the simulation of small-scale dense-fluid flows of high-aspect ratio, but has been extended to support fluid compressibility, non-isothermal conditions, three dimensional domains, and transience. Furthermore, the method is able to treat a broader range of flows: periodic, non-periodic, body-force-driven, pressure-driven, thermally-driven, and s

Abstract:
<p> Mass transfer and reaction in the liquid phase of gas-liquid multiphase flows usually takes place at a considerably slower rate than the transfer of momentum, so mass flux boundary layers are much thinner than momentum boundary layers. In Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) the resolution requirement for flows with mass transfer are therefore significantly higher than for flow without mass transfer and reaction. In this work we develop a multi-scale approach and demonstrate its implementation in 2D to compute the mass transfer from buoyant bubbles, using a boundary-layer approximation next
