In this study we focus on the control of the dynamics of 3D turbulent wake downstream a square-back Ahmed body ($Re_H=3.9\times10^5$). The peculiar dynamics of such a wake are first characterized through the trajectories of the pressure…
The relationships between characteristic large-scale wake structures appearing behind a freestream-aligned circular cylinder are investigated and discussed from the velocity field obtained by wind tunnel tests. The tests were conducted…
A modelling methodology to reproduce the experimental measurements of a turbulent flow under the presence of symmetry is presented. The flow is a three-dimensional wake generated by an axisymmetric body. We show that the dynamics of the…
The transonic flight regime is often dominated by transonic buffet, a highly unsteady and complex shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction involving major parts of the flow field. The phenomenon is associated with a large-amplitude periodic…
We investigate the broadband turbulent dynamics of attached and separated flows over a Gaussian bump, focusing on the origin of low-frequency coherent structures. The analysis combines time-resolved experimental measurements with…
Periodically forced, oscillatory fluid flows have been the focus of intense research for decades due to their richness as a nonlinear dynamical system and their relevance to applications in transportation, aeronautics, and energy…
The stability and bifurcation behaviour of a wake-induced vibro-impacting oscillator is studied. The effects of a discontinuity on the stability of the structure while it is undergoing phase-locked motions due to the surrounding…
Wind turbines operating in the atmospheric boundary layer are constantly exposed to time-varying flow conditions. These disturbances often occur on similar time scales to wind-turbine controllers, which may interfere with wind-farm control…
We present the first comprehensive experimental and numerical study featuring the turbulent wake of the fluidic pinball for a large actuation range. The fluidic pinball is a cluster of three equal circular cylinders centered on the vertices…
Chaotic dynamics of the dripping faucet was investigated both experimentally and theoretically. We measured continuous change in drop position and velocity using a high-speed camera. Continuous trajectories of a low-dimensional chaotic…
Turbulent flows are fundamental in engineering and the environment, but their chaotic and three-dimensional (3-D) nature makes them computationally expensive to simulate. In this work, a dimensionality reduction technique is investigated to…
The unsteady flow physics of wind-turbine wakes under dynamic forcing conditions are critical to the modeling and control of wind farms for optimal power density. Unsteady forcing in the streamwise direction may be generated by unsteady…
Measurements of wall shear-stress fluctuations on very long timescales ($\ge$ 1900 free-fall time units) are reported for turbulent Rayleigh-Benard (RB) convection in air at the heated bottom plate of a RB cell, 2.5 m in diameter and 2.5 m…
This work studies the three-dimensional flow dynamics around a rotating circular cylinder of finite length, whose axis is positioned perpendicular to the streamwise direction. Direct numerical simulations and global stability analyses are…
We have investigated the organization and dynamics of the large turbulent structures that develop in the logarithmic and outer layers of high-Reynolds-number wall flows. These structures have sizes comparable to the flow thickness and…
We present an experimental study of the aerodynamic forces on a thick and cambered airfoil at a high Reynolds number 3.6 x 10^6, which is of direct relevance for wind turbine design. Unlike thin airfoils at low chord-based Reynolds numbers,…
Flexible structures in an incoming perpendicular flow typically undergo elastic reconfiguration that reduces drag; however, at higher velocities, they are prone to dynamical instabilities that entail complex wake dynamics and fluctuating…
The fluid-structure interaction between a thin circular disk and its turbulent wake is investigated experimentally and described with a low-order stochastic model. The disk faces a uniform flow at Reynolds number Re=133 000 and can rotate…
We study the dynamical properties of a broad class of high-dimensional random dynamical systems exhibiting chaotic as well as fixed point and periodic attractors. We consider cases in which attractors can co-exists in some regions of the…
We investigate whether a strongly turbulent flow with intermittent large-scale reorganizations admits a compact state-space description. As a representative high-dimensional chaotic system we consider two-dimensional Rayleigh--B\'enard…
