Two-dimensional (2D) flows are efficiently controlled with spanwise waviness, i.e. spanwise-periodic (SP) wall blowing/suction/deformation. We tackle the global linear stability of 2D flows subject to small-amplitude 3D SP control. Building…
Turbulent channel flow controlled by spanwise wall oscillations is studied using direct numerical simulations to improve how spanwise forcing reduces skin-friction drag. Harmonic wall oscillations generate a periodic transverse Stokes layer…
A variational technique is used to derive analytical expressions for the sensitivity of recirculation length to steady forcing in separated flows. Linear sensitivity analysis is applied to the two-dimensional steady flow past a circular…
The question of optimal spanwise-periodic modification for the stabilisation of spanwise-invariant flows is addressed. A 2nd-order sensitivity analysis is conducted for the linear temporal stability of parallel flows U0 subject to…
Wall-pressure fluctuations are a practically robust input for real-time control systems aimed at modifying wall-bounded turbulence. The scaling behaviour of the wall-pressure--velocity coupling requires investigation to properly design a…
The two-dimensional backward-facing step flow is a canonical example of noise amplifier flow: global linear stability analysis predicts that it is stable, but perturbations can undergo large amplification in space and time as a result of…
Linear optimal gains are computed for the subcritical two-dimensional separated boundary-layer flow past a bump. Very large optimal gain values are found, making it possible for small-amplitude noise to be strongly amplified and to…
Opposition flow control is a robust strategy that has been proved effective in turbulent wall-bounded flows. Its conventional setup consists of measuring wall-normal velocity in the buffer layer and opposing it at the wall. This work…
We consider linear feedback flow control of the largest scales in an incompressible turbulent channel flow at a friction Reynolds number of Re$_{\tau}$ = 2000. A linear model is formed by linearizing the Navier-Stokes equations about the…
In order to generalize the well-known spanwise-oscillating-wall technique for drag reduction, non-sinusoidal oscillations of a solid wall are considered as a means to alter the skin-friction drag in a turbulent channel flow. A series of…
Reinforcement learning is applied to the development of control strategies in order to reduce skin friction drag in a fully developed turbulent channel flow at a low Reynolds number. Motivated by the so-called opposition control (Choi et…
We present a phase-based framework for reducing the pressure fluctuations within a spanwise-periodic supersonic turbulent cavity flow with an incoming free-stream Mach number of 1.4 and a depth-based Reynolds number of 10,000. Open cavity…
A method to find optimal 2nd-order perturbations is presented, and applied to find the optimal spanwise-wavy surface for suppression of cylinder wake instability. Second-order perturbations are required to capture the stabilizing effect of…
An experimental study was conducted in the CICLoPE long-pipe facility to investigate the correlation between wall-pressure and turbulent velocity fluctuations in the logarithmic region, at high friction Reynolds numbers ($4\,794 \lesssim…
Adjoint-based sensitivity analysis is routinely used today to assess efficiently the effect of open-loop control on the linear stability properties of unstable flows. Sensitivity maps identify regions where small-amplitude control is the…
Opposition-control of the energetic cycle of near wall streaks in wall-bounded turbulence, using numerical approaches, has shown promise for drag reduction. For practical implementation, opposition control is only realizable if there is a…
Waves of spanwise velocity imposed at the walls of a plane turbulent channel flow are studied by Direct Numerical Simulations. We consider sinusoidal waves of spanwise velocity which vary in time and are modulated in space along the…
Spanwise wall forcing in the form of streamwise-travelling waves is applied to the suction side of a transonic airfoil with a shock wave to reduce aerodynamic drag. The study, conducted using direct numerical simulations, extends earlier…
We carried out high-resolution large-eddy simulations (LESs) to investigate the effects of several separation-control approaches on a NACA4412 wing section with spanwise width of $L_z = 0.6$ at an angle of attack of $AoA=11^{\circ}$ at a…
Wall-based active and passive flow control for drag reduction in low Reynolds number (Re) turbulent flows can lead to three typical phenomena: i) attenuation or ii) amplification of the near-wall cycle, and iii) generation of spanwise…
