The goal of this note is to provide a theoretical explanation for the saturation of the drag coefficient in strong wind conditions. The hydrodynamic model under consideration takes into account the important effects of airborne droplets of…
The wake of wavy cylinder has been shown to exhibit bistability. Depending on the initial condition, the final state of the wake can either develop into a steady flow (state I), or periodic shedding (state II). In this paper, we perform…
A variety of observational evidence demonstrates that brown dwarfs exhibit active atmospheric circulations. In this study we use a shallow-water model to investigate the global atmospheric dynamics in the stratified layer overlying the…
Flapping wings are the primary means by which dragonflies generate forces, but they are susceptible to damage due to their inherent fragility. The damage results in a reduction in wing area and a distortion of the original wing, which in…
A fundamental difference between fluids and solids is their response to applied shear. Solids possess static shear moduli, while fluids do not. Complex fluids such as foams display an intermediate response to shear with nontrivial…
We train active neural-network flow controllers using a deep learning PDE augmentation method to optimize lift-to-drag ratios in turbulent airfoil flows at Reynolds number $5\times10^4$ and Mach number 0.4. Direct numerical simulation and…
(abridged) Aims: To study turbulent transport coefficients that describe the evolution of large-scale magnetic fields in turbulent convection. Methods: We use the test field method together with 3D numerical simulations of turbulent…
Over the last two decades, both experiments and simulations have demonstrated that transverse wall oscillations with properly selected amplitude and frequency can reduce turbulent drag by as much as 40%. In this paper, we develop a…
Understanding how wakes interact with wind turbine blades under varying operating and inflow conditions is essential for improving fatigue prediction and performance assessment in increasingly dense wind farms. We present an experimental…
In this study, we present two and three-dimensional numerical investigation to understand the combined effects of the non-dimensional heave amplitude varying from 0 to 1 and the pitch amplitude ranging from 0 to 30 on the propulsive…
We study the influence of turbulent viscosity variability on the properties of self-propelled body wake model. In addition to the already known integrals of motion obtained with constant turbulent viscosity, we obtain new ones. The presence…
Vortex induced vibrations of bluff bodies occur when the vortex shedding frequency is close to the natural frequency of the structure. Of interest is the prediction of the lift and drag forces on the structure given some limited and…
We have developed a simulation model to study the hydrodynamic flow fields around Brownian colloidal particles with an active surface patch. Hydrodynamics is introduced by modeling low-Reynolds-number fluid flows around a colloid using…
Energy harvesting from vortex-induced vibrations is a promising technology that relies on the vibrations of bluff bodies due to vortex shedding. Increasing the vibration amplitude at a given free stream kinetic energy is therefore…
Superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) can reduce the friction drag in turbulent flows. In the laminar regime, it has been shown that trace amounts of surfactant can negate this drag reduction, at times rendering these surfaces no better than…
The present study aims to investigate the effectiveness of plasma actuators in controlling the flow around a finite wall-mounted square cylinder (FWMSC) with a longitudinal aspect ratio of 4. The test is conducted in a small-scale closed…
The impact forces generated by the impact of a breaking wave are poorly understood. These impulsive hydrodynamic loads to a ship's hull are of short duration relative to ship motions and buoyant wave loads and often result in extremely high…
In this study we experimentally investigate bubbly drag reduction in a highly turbulent flow of water with dispersed air at $5.0 \times 10^{5} \leq \text{Re} \leq 1.7 \times 10^{6}$ over a non-wetting surface containing micro-scale…
This study employs an improved delayed detached eddy simulation (AMD-IDDES) method to investigate the flow characteristics of an iced swept wing. The AMD-IDDES approach incorporates an anisotropic minimum-dissipation (AMD) model into the…
When a gravitating object moves across a given mass distribution, it creates an overdense wake behind it. Here, we performed an analytical study of the structure of the flow far from object when the flow is isentropic and the object moves…
