We study a nonlinear, moving boundary fluid-structure interaction problem between an incompressible, viscous Newtonian fluid, modeled by the 2D Navier-Stokes equations, and an elastic structure modeled by the shell or plate equations. The…
We study the effect of surface texture on an overlying turbulent flow for textures made of an alternating slip/no-slip pattern, a common model for superhydrophobic surfaces, but also a particularly simple form of texture. For texture sizes…
