Computational analysis of non-isothermal flow of non-Newtonian fluids by Ireka, Ikenna Ebubechukwu

“…The mathematical models are inherently intractable to analytical treatment, being nonlinear coupled systems of time dependent partial differential equations. We therefore develop computational solutions for the model problems. …”

Development of an efficient finite volume computational platform for the simulation of complex flows of complex fluids governed by the Rolie-Poly model by Abuga, Jade Gesare

“…Polymer melts are a category of fluids known as viscoelastic fluids and it is only recently that different forms of constitutive equations derived as simplified versions of molecular reptation-based models have been developed to describe molten polymers. …”

A physics-informed neural network modelling methodology to analyse integrated thermofluid systems by Laugksch, Kristina Karli

“…Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) were developed to overcome the limitations of acquiring large training datasets that are commonly encountered when using purely data-driven machine learning methods. This study explores a PINN modelling methodology to analyse steady-state integrated thermofluid systems based on the mass, energy, and momentum balance equations, combined with the relevant component characteristics and fluid property relationships. …”

Emergency department design evaluation and optimization using discrete event simulation by Rofaeel, Irinie Wanis Tadros

“…In addition, several floor plans of EDs have been studied in order to assure the logical flow of the process. Based on the data collected and the several verifications, a discrete event simulation model was developed using ARENA software. …”
