Analytical and Numerical Study of Novel Scaling Laws for Air-Water Flows (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Catucci, D., Briganti, R., & Heller, V. (2022). Analytical and Numerical Study of Novel Scaling Laws for Air-Water Flows. In Proceedings of the 39th IAHR World Congress (Granada, 2022) (4551-4560). https://doi.org/10.3850/IAHR-39WC252171192022202

Physical modelling in the laboratory is widely used for hydraulic investigations. Froude similarity results in significant scale effects in small models for flows involving air-entrainment. Such air-water flows are essential for many hydraulic applic... Read More about Analytical and Numerical Study of Novel Scaling Laws for Air-Water Flows.

Numerical Investigation of Impulse Waves Impacting on Dams (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Attili, T., Heller, V., & Triantafyllou, S. (2022). Numerical Investigation of Impulse Waves Impacting on Dams. In Proceedings of the 39th IAHR World Congress (Granada, 2022) (2222-2229). https://doi.org/10.3850/IAHR-39WC252171192022107

Impulse waves are generated by landslides, rockfalls and iceberg calving in water bodies such as lakes and reservoirs. These waves represent a persistent danger for dams, e.g. in the 1963 Vajont disaster an impulse wave impacted and overtopped the Va...

New Physical Insight into Landslide-Tsunamis Using Non-Linear Wave Decomposition (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Constance, B., & Heller, V. (2022). New Physical Insight into Landslide-Tsunamis Using Non-Linear Wave Decomposition. In Proceedings of the 39th IAHR World Congress (Granada, 2022) (6234-6243). https://doi.org/10.3850/IAHR-39WC2521711920221094

Potentially devastating tsunamis are generated by landslides impacting into water bodies. Such subaerial landslide-tsunamis are typically predicted with empirical equations, which, however, fail to appropriately capture some of the underlying physics...

Unbinding architectural imagination: Wang Shu’s textual bricolage in theoretical writing and design (2022)
Journal Article
Jin, X., & Hale, J. (2022). Unbinding architectural imagination: Wang Shu’s textual bricolage in theoretical writing and design. Journal of Architecture, 27(7-8), 1012-1033. https://doi.org/10.1080/13602365.2022.2153377

Architectural writing norms have been a subject of constant debate in recent decades. Architectural poststructuralists have often conceptualised writing as a form of virtual construction in the medium of words. Recent scholarship relating to innovati...

Quantitative investigation of the validity conditions for the Beckmann-Kirchhoff scattering model (2022)
Journal Article
Hooshmand, H., Liu, M., Leach, R., & Piano, S. (2022). Quantitative investigation of the validity conditions for the Beckmann-Kirchhoff scattering model. Optical Engineering, 61(12), Article 124113. https://doi.org/10.1117/1.OE.61.12.124113

Approximate and rigorous methods are widely used to model light scattering from a surface. The boundary element method (BEM) is a rigorous model that accounts for polarization and multiple scattering effects. BEM is suitable to model the scattered li...
