• Simulation of the Fluid–Structure Interaction in Fishing Nets 

  Roget, Sergio; Lema, Marcos; Gosset, Anne (MDPI, 2021-10)

  Abstract: The main objective of this work is the development of a Computational Fluid Dynamics model coupled with a structural code for the simulation and optimization of fishing gears. As fishing nets are highly deformable ...

• Numerical Simulations and Modal Analysis to Investigate the Defects in a Coating Process 

  Barreiro-Villaverde, David; Lema, Marcos; Gosset, Anne (MDPI, 2021-10)

  Abstract: This work investigates the hydrodynamics of jet wiping, a coating process in which a thin slot gas jet impinges on a coating film dragged by a moving strip; thus, reducing the coating thickness and developing a ...
