A computational study of particulate emissions from Old Moor Quarry, UK (2017)
Journal Article
Joseph, G., Lowndes, I., & Hargreaves, D. (2018). A computational study of particulate emissions from Old Moor Quarry, UK. Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 172, 68-84. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jweia.2017.10.018

This paper presents an evaluation of a buoyancy-modified k--e dust dispersion model for predicting fugitive dust deposition from a surface quarry. The dust clouds are modelled as volumetric emissions and their dispersion simulated by coupling the flo... Read More about A computational study of particulate emissions from Old Moor Quarry, UK.

Pore-scale numerical investigation of pressure drop behaviour across open-cell metal foams (2017)
Journal Article
de Carvalho, T. P., Morvan, H., Hargreaves, D. M., Oun, H., & Kennedy, A. (2017). Pore-scale numerical investigation of pressure drop behaviour across open-cell metal foams. Transport in Porous Media, 117(2), 311-336. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11242-017-0835-y

The development and validation of a grid-based pore-scale numerical modelling methodology applied to five different commercial metal foam samples is described. The 3-D digital representation of the foam geometry was obtained by the use of X-ray micro...

Numerical modelling of the rise of Taylor bubbles through a change in pipe diameter (2017)
Journal Article
Ambrose, S., Lowndes, I. S., Hargreaves, D., & Azzopardi, B. (2017). Numerical modelling of the rise of Taylor bubbles through a change in pipe diameter. Computers and Fluids, 148, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compfluid.2017.01.023

The rise of Taylor bubbles through expansions in vertical pipes is modelled using Computational Fluid Dynamics. The predictions from the models are compared against existing experimental work and show good agreement, both quantitatively and qualitati...

Improving the rheometry of rubberized bitumen: experimental and computation fluid dynamics studies (2017)
Journal Article
Lo Presti, D., Giancontieri, G., & Hargreaves, D. M. (2017). Improving the rheometry of rubberized bitumen: experimental and computation fluid dynamics studies. Construction and Building Materials, 136, 286-297. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2016.12.200

© 2017 Multi-phase materials are common in several fields of engineering and rheological measurements are intensively adopted for their development and quality control. Unfortunately, due to the complexity of these materials, accurate measurements ca... Read More about Improving the rheometry of rubberized bitumen: experimental and computation fluid dynamics studies.
