Adaptive control is applied to a supersonic dual-stream jet flow comprised of Mach 1.6 core and Mach 1.0 bypass streams that mix to form a supersonic shear layer. The vortices shed are the source of a high-frequency tone that persists…
Interaction between a central outflow and a surrounding wind is common in astrophysical sources powered by accretion. Understanding how the interaction might help to collimate the inner central outflow is of interest for assessing…

Screech resonance is studied with experimentally validated large-eddy simulation data for a 4:1 rectangular under-expanded jet at three nozzle pressure ratios. The analysis uses spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) and spatial…
Modelling the noise emitted by turbulent jets is made difficult by their acoustic inefficiency: only a tiny fraction of the near-field turbulent kinetic energy is propagated to the far field as acoustic waves. As a result, jet-noise models…

Observations of coronal jets increasingly suggest that local fragmentation and intermittency play an important role in the dynamics of these events. In this work we investigate this fragmentation in high-resolution simulations of jets in…
One way to reduce the lattice thermal conductivity of solids is to induce additional phonon surface scattering through nanostructures. However, how phonons interact with boundaries, especially at the atomic level, is not well understood. In…

Vortex-sheet models of jets are widely used to describe the dynamics of modes, such as the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability and guided acoustic waves. However, it is seldom pointed out in the literature the absence of the free-stream acoustic…
