In this paper, Navier -Stokes fluid flows in curved channels are considered. Upstream of the backwardfacing step, there exists a channel with a 90°bend and a fixed curvature of 2.5. The purpose of conducting this study was to apply a finite element code to study the effect of the distorted upstream

## Abstract A finite piece method is proposed to simulate three‐dimensional slit flows in extrusion sheet dies in this paper. The simulations concern incompressible fluids obeying different constitutive equations: generalized Newtonian (Carreau‐Yasuda law), and viscoelastic Phan‐Thien Tanner (PTT)
This paper reports numerical simulation of the flow past a heated/cooled sphere. A Galerkin finite element method is used to solve the 3D incompressible Boussinesq equations in primitive variable form. Numerical simulations of flow around the sphere for a range of Grashof numbers and moderate Reynol
Finite element algorithms are presented for the entire casting process from the mould ÿlling stage to the prediction of the ÿnal distorted shape. The various algorithms available in the literature for solidiÿcation modelling are discussed in detail. Special emphasis is given to the coupling of the s
Recent efforts to develop and apply adaptive finite element techniques for solving complex flow problems are reviewed. The emphasis is not on new methods but on how to use existing methods to achieve accurate predictions. Various sources of errors, and means of detecting them, are discussed. The aim
