Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This study aims to link critical Reynolds numbers associated with either steadystate or temporal bifurcations to fluid flow regimes described by macroscopic laws (Darcy, Forchheimer) in a periodic 3D Kelvin foam, using direct numerical simulations. We first identify the permeability and inertial coefficient of the Darcy’s law and the Forchheimer’s one. We explicit the different flow regimes that are accounted for in the Forchheimer’s framework (Darcian, weak inertia and strong inertia regimes, respectively). We present an original systematic way to determine the critical Reynolds associated with both regime transitions. We calculate them over a wide range of porosities and present two power-law correlations that locate these regime transitions for engineering purposes.We have performed pore-scale resolved calculations for various porosities with the Asymptotic Numerical Method (ANM) to find steady-state bifurcations, if any, along with a Linear Stability Analysis (LSA) to find temporal (Hopf) bifurcations from steady-state base flows. All the computed bifurcations occur at Reynolds numbers in the vicinity of the transition from weak to strong inertia regimes, where a change of behavior takes place. On the other hand, no bifurcations have been found in the transition between Darcian and weak inertia regimes.
