The high-Reynolds-number wake of a slender body with a turbulent boundary layer is investigated using a hybrid simulation. The wake generator is a 6:1 prolate spheroid and the Reynolds number based on the diameter $D$ is $Re = 10^5$. The…
A large scale parametric study of the flow over the prolate spheroid is presented to understand the effect of Reynolds number and angle of attack on the separation, the wake formation and the loads. Large-Eddy Simulation is performed for…
The wake of a body moving across the isopycnals of a strongly stratified fluid is characterized by the presence of an intense jet which, under certain circumstances, may become unstable. To get insight into the phenomenology of this…
Ocean submersibles and aerial vehicles often encounter a density-stratified environment whose effect on flow features is of interest. A 6:1 prolate spheroid of diameter $D$ with velocity $U$ and at a moderate angle of attack (AOA) of…
The wake behind a sphere, rotating about an axis aligned with the streamwise direction, has been experimentally investigated in a low-velocity water tunnel using LIF visualizations and PIV measurements. The measurements focused on the…
The turbulent flow past a wall-mounted square cylinder with an aspect ratio of four was investigated with the aid of Spalart-Allmaras improved delayed detached-eddy simulation (S-A IDDES) and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD). The…
The high-Reynolds number stratified wake of a slender body is studied using a high-resolution hybrid simulation. The wake generator is a 6:1 prolate spheroid with a tripped boundary layer, the diameter-based body Reynolds number is $Re=…
The laminar flow past rectangular prisms is studied in the space of length-to-height ratio ($1 \le L/H \le 5$), width-to-height ratio ($1.2 \le W/H \le 5$) and Reynolds number ($Re \lessapprox 700$). The primary bifurcation is investigated…
This paper investigates the linear destabilization of three-dimensional steady wakes developing behind flate plates placed normal to the incoming flow. Plates characterized by low length-to-width ratio $L$ are considered here. By varying…
Much work has been done to understand the settling dynamics of spherical particles in a homogeneous and a stratified fluid. However, the effects of shape anisotropy on the settling dynamics of a particle in a stratified fluid are not…
We consider the wake flow past a thin two-dimensional flat plate normal to the uniform stream and demonstrate that this flow is turbulent already at a relatively low Reynolds number of $Re = 400$. This is achieved by performing a careful…
We perform direct numerical simulations of laminar separated flows over finite-aspect-ratio swept wings at a chord-base Reynolds number of $Re = 400$ to reveal a variety of wake structures generated for a range of aspect ratios…
We investigate the three-dimensional melting dynamics of an initially spherical particle translating in a warmer liquid using sharp-interface simulations that fully resolve both solid and fluid phases with the Stefan condition. A wide…
We analyze theoretically and experimentally the wake behind a horizontal cylinder of diameter $d$ horizontally translated at constant velocity $U$ in a fluid rotating about the vertical axis at a rate $\Omega$. Using particle image…
Wakes of aircraft and automobiles with relatively flat slanted aftbodies are often characterized by a streamwise-oriented vortex pair, whose strength affects drag and other crucial performance parameters. We examine the stability…
Wakes of upswept afterbodies are often characterized by a counter-rotating streamwise vortex pair. The unsteady dynamics of these vortices are examined with a spatio-temporally resolved Large-Eddy Simulation dataset on a representative…
Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are subjected to platform motion induced by wind and wave loads. The oscillatory movement trigger vortex instabilities, modifying the wake structure, influencing the flow reaching downstream wind…
We study the large-scale helical vortex shedding regime in the wake of an axisymmetric body with a blunt trailing edge at high Reynolds numbers, both experimentally and by means of local, linear, spatiotemporal stability analysis. In the…
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 present study investigates unsteady wake dynamics in flow past oscillating cylinder. Two-dimensional computational study is carried out for flow past sinusoidally oscillating cylinder. Operating parameters like Reynolds number, forcing…
