We investigate the behaviour of a system where a single phase fluid domain is coupled to a biphasic poroelastic domain. The fluid domain consists of an incompressible Newtonian viscous fluid while the poroelastic domain consists of a linear elastic solid filled with the same viscous fluid. The properties of the poroelastic domain, i.e. permeability and elastic parameters, depend on the inhomogeneous initial porosity field. The theoretical framework highlights how the heterogeneous material properties enter the linearised governing equations for the poroelastic domain. To couple flows through this domain with a surrounding Stokes flow, we show case a numerical implementation based on a new mixed formulation where the equations in the poroelastic domain are rewritten in terms of three fields: displacement, fluid pressure and total pressure. Coupling single phase and multiphase flow problems are ubiquitous in many industrial and biological applications, and here we consider an example from in-vitro tissue engineering. We consider a perfusion system, where a flow is forced to pass from the single phase fluid to the biphasic poroelastic domain. We focus on a simplified two dimensional geometry with small aspect ratio, and perform an asymptotic analysis to derive analytical solutions for the displacement, the pressure and the velocity fields. Our analysis advances the quantitative understanding of the role of heterogeneous material properties of a poroelastic domain on its mechanics when coupled with a fluid domain. Specifically, (i) the analytical analysis gives closed form relations that can be directly used in the design of slender perfusion systems; (ii) the numerical method is validated by comparing its result against selected theoretical solutions, opening towards the possibility to investigate more complex geometrical configurations.

Turbulent fluid flows are ubiquitous in nature and technology, and are mathematically described by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (INSE). A hallmark of turbulence is spontaneous generation of intense whirls, resulting from amplification o f the fluid rotation-rate (vorticity) by its deformation-rate (strain). This interaction, encoded in the non-linearity of INSE, is non-local, i.e., depends on the entire state of the flow, constituting a serious hindrance in turbulence theory and in establishing regularity of INSE. Here, we unveil a novel aspect of this interaction, by separating strain into local and non-local contributions utilizing the Biot-Savart integral of vorticity in a sphere of radius R. Analyzing highly-resolved numerical turbulent solutions to INSE, we find that when vorticity becomes very large, the local strain over small R surprisingly counteracts further amplification. This uncovered self-attenuation mechanism is further shown to be connected to local Beltramization of the flow, and could provide a direction in establishing the regularity of INSE.
We investigate the spatio-temporal structure of the most likely configurations realising extremely high vorticity or strain in the stochastically forced 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Most likely configurations are computed by numerically finding the highest probability velocity field realising an extreme constraint as solution of a large optimisation problem. High-vorticity configurations are identified as pinched vortex filaments with swirl, while high-strain configurations correspond to counter-rotating vortex rings. We additionally observe that the most likely configurations for vorticity and strain spontaneously break their rotational symmetry for extremely high observable values. Instanton calculus and large deviation theory allow us to show that these maximum likelihood realisations determine the tail probabilities of the observed quantities. In particular, we are able to demonstrate that artificially enforcing rotational symmetry for large strain configurations leads to a severe underestimate of their probability, as it is dominated in likelihood by an exponentially more likely symmetry broken vortex-sheet configuration.
We study a self-similar solution of the kinetic equation describing weak wave turbulence in Bose-Einstein condensates. This solution presumably corresponds to an asymptotic behavior of a spectrum evolving from a broad class of initial data, and it fe atures a non-equilibrium finite-time condensation of the wave spectrum $n(omega)$ at the zero frequency $omega$. The self-similar solution is of the second kind, and it satisfies boundary conditions corresponding to a nonzero constant spectrum (with all its derivative being zero) at $omega=0$ and a power-law asymptotic $n(omega) to omega^{-x}$ at $omega to infty ;; xin mathbb{R}^+$. Finding it amounts to solving a nonlinear eigenvalue problem, i.e. finding the value $x^*$ of the exponent $x$ for which these two boundary conditions can be satisfied simultaneously. To solve this problem we develop a new high-precision algorithm based on Chebyshev approximations and double exponential formulas for evaluating the collision integral, as well as the iterative techniques for solving the integro-differential equation for the self-similar shape function. This procedures allow to achieve a solution with accuracy $approx 4.7 %$ which is realized for $x^* approx 1.22$.
We present an iterative coupling scheme for the numerical approximation of the mixed hyperbolic-parabolic system of fully dynamic poroelasticity. We prove its convergence in the Banach space setting for an abstract semi-discretization in time that al lows the application of the family of diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta methods. Recasting the semi-discrete solution as the minimizer of a properly defined energy functional, the proof of convergence uses its alternating minimization. The scheme is closely related to the undrained split for the quasi-static Biot system.
The regularisation of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws has been a problem of great importance for achieving uniqueness of weak solutions and also for accurate numerical simulations. In a recent work, the first two authors proposed a so-called H amiltonian regularisation for nonlinear shallow water and isentropic Euler equations. The characteristic property of this method is that the regularisation of solutions is achieved without adding any artificial dissipation or ispersion. The regularised system possesses a Hamiltonian structure and, thus, formally preserves the corresponding energy functional. In the present article we generalise this approach to shallow water waves over general, possibly time-dependent, bottoms. The proposed system is solved numerically with continuous Galerkin method and its solutions are compared with the analogous solutions of the classical shallow water and dispersive Serre-Green-Naghdi equations. The numerical results confirm the absence of dispersive and dissipative effects in presence of bathymetry variations.
