LSTM Among Finalists in the 1st ERCOFTAC Milton van Dyke Competition — Voting Now Open
We are pleased to announce that three contributions involving researchers from LSTM have been recognized in the 1st ERCOFTAC Milton van Dyke Competition, a European competition for visualizations in fluid dynamics.
Among numerous submissions, one of our submissions has been selected as a finalist, while two other works have been included among the runner-ups.
Finalist:
“Direct Numerical Simulation of a Starting Rotor”
Adam Peplinski, Eman Bagheri, Ronith Stanly, Siavash Toosi, Niclas Jansson, Timofey Mukha, Philipp Schlatter
This work shows the capabilities of the adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) version of Nek5000 for the case of a drone rotor highlighting efficient high-fidelity large-scale simulations of unsteady rotating flows.
Public voting for the best visualistion is now open, and we invite you to support your favourite:
Additionally, two submissions from LSTM were selected as runners-up.
Runners-up:
1. “Shape Optimization of a 180° Bent Pipe to Reduce Flow Resistance“
Eman Bagheri, Philipp Schlatter and Stefan Becker
2. “Fractal Patterns in High Reynolds Number Turbulent Pipe Flow“
Daniele Massaro, Jie Yao, Saleh Rezareiravesh, Fazle Hussain, Philipp Schlatter
The winner of the Milton van Dyke Competition will be announced at ERCOFTAC Spring Festival on May 22nd, 2025 in Stockholm.
