How can CFD help us better understand the physics of reverse-swing bowling?
In cricket, reverse swing bowling is much talked-about but often misunderstood. Conditions in the much anticipated 2019 Ashes cricket series between Australia and England are expected to be conducive to reverse-swing bowling. Let's use some CFD examples to help better understand the science of reverse-swing bowling.
Q&A with 2017 F1 in Schools National Champions - Golden Diversity
Leading to 2019 National Finals, hear some insights from Hoai Nguyen, Design Engineer from the Golden Diversity F1 in Schools team from Queechy High School - Hoai was closely involved in using CFD simulations and Augmented Reality for their car and display for the 2017 World Finals.
Predicting Liner Wear in a SAG Mill using Rocky DEM coupled with ANSYS CFD
LEAP will be in Melbourne at the 2nd Int'l Symposium on Computational Particle Technology to showcase exciting new modelling work that has been completed recently using Rocky DEM and ANSYS CFD to predict liner wear in a semi-autonomous grinding (SAG) mill, using ANSYS CFD to model the effects of slurry flow within the mill on liner wear and particle breakage.
