The objectives of this Discovery Grant are: A) to advance the state of the art of adaptive high order spectral Discontinuous Galerkin methods for the Direct Numerical Simulation of incompressible flows in the transition to turbulence regime; B) to use high order methods to discover new mechanisms in the transition process for complex geometries and, where possible, practical applications such as a laminar morphing wing of Bombardier Aerospace; C) to advance the state of the art in blood viscosity modeling and modeling of blood flow in realistic microcirculation geometries incorporating the effect of Red Blood Cell aggregation; and D) to develop a methodology to 3D print complex laminar and transitional flow structures for research and educational purposes.
