Abstract

AbstractIn this article, a new numerical model is proposed to detect numerically the Hopf bifurcation point of incompressible fluid flows problems. The concept of this model consists to propose a Hopf bifurcation indicator which is solved by a high order mesh free algorithm (HO‐MFA) using the moving least squares (MLS) approximation. This numerical model is based on a strong formulation of Navier–Stokes equations. This procedure allowed us to recover the results of the literature in using only a modelization for low Reynolds number. This new model is tested on the classical flow around a cylindrical obstacle and the backward‐facing step flow to show the advantage and ability of the proposed model to detect the bifurcation points and to determinate the flow periodicity.
