Author Name : Omer Ibrahim Mohamed Saad

ABSTRACT Fluid mechanics plays a crucial role in numerous engineering and scientific applications, driving advancements in aerodynamics, biomedical engineering, environmental modeling, and industrial processes. This review explores recent developments in computational and experimental fluid mechanics, with a focus on numerical modeling techniques such as the Finite Volume Method (FVM) and Finite Element Method (FEM), high-fidelity turbulence models including Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS), and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Additionally, emerging applications in aerospace engineering, biofluid mechanics, climate modeling, and microfluidics are discussed. The study highlights key challenges, such as uncertainty quantification, turbulence modeling accuracy, and the need for energy-efficient fluid systems. Future directions include the advancement of exascale computing, AI-driven predictive models, and sustainable fluid dynamics solutions. By bridging theoretical insights with real-world applications, fluid mechanics research continues to drive innovation across multiple disciplines.
