A new model with full coupling between micro-and macroscale motion is developed for compressible multiphase mixtures. The equations of motion and the coupling microstructural equation (an analogue of the Rayleigh-Lamb equation) are obtained by using the Hamilton principle of stationary action. In th

Homogeneous equilibrium two-phase flows are characterized by important variations of the local Mach number. Indeed, the sound speed can be several orders of magnitude higher in the liquid phase than in the two-phase mixture. For the simulation of such flows, a numerical method which can handle accur
Minimum flows in rivers and streams aim to provide a certain level of protection for the aquatic environment. The level of protection is described by a measure such as a prescribed proportion of historic flows, wetted perimeter or suitable habitat. Conflicting minimum flow assessments from different
