The present study investigates the impact of engine position on contrail formation and near-field evolution in a realistic three-dimensional aircraft configuration. Detailed numerical simulations are conducted using a Reynolds-Averaged…
The stability of the ordered phase of the three-dimensional XY-model with random phase shifts is studied by considering the roughening of a single stretched vortex line due to the disorder. It is shown that the vortex line may be described…
Unsteady thin-aerofoil theory is a low-order method for solving potential-flow aerodynamics on a camber-line undergoing arbitrary motion. In this method, a Kutta condition must be applied at the trailing edge to uniquely specify the net…
In systems with frustration, the critical slowdown of the dynamics severely impedes the numerical study of phase transitions for even the simplest of lattice models. In order to help sidestep the gelation-like sluggishness, a clearer…
Bio-inspired methods can provide efficient solutions to perform autonomous landing for Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs). Flying insects such as honeybees perform vertical landings by keeping flow divergence constant. This leads to an exponential…
A robust auto-landing problem of a Truss-braced Wing (TBW) regional jet aircraft with poor stability characteristics is presented in this study employing a Fuzzy Reinforcement Learning scheme. Reinforcement Learning (RL) has seen a recent…
Field observations and laboratory experiments have shown that ash sedimentation can be significantly affected by collective settling mechanisms that promote premature ash deposition, with important implications for associated impacts. Among…
Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) vehicles will open new opportunities in aviation. This paper describes the design and wind tunnel analysis of an eVTOL uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) prototype with a traditional aircraft wing,…
We ask what determines the (small) angle of turbulent jets. To answer this question we first construct a deterministic vortex-street model representing the large scale structure in a self-similar plane turbulent jet. Without adjustable…
We use computer simulation to study the layer-by-layer growth of particle structures in a lattice gas, taking the number of incorporated vacancies as a measure of the quality of the grown structure. By exploiting a dynamic scaling relation…
I review constraints on the physical properties of AGN jets revealed through Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) studies of the structure and time-evolution of parsec-scale jets, including recent results from the MOJAVE program. In…
We explore the conditions required for isolated vortices to exist in sheared zonal flows and the stability of the underlying zonal winds. This is done using the standard 2-layer quasigeostrophic model with the lower layer depth becoming…
This paper presents a novel model of large-size tilt-rotor aircraft, which can operate as a helicopter as well as being capable of transition to fixed-wing flight. Aerodynamics of the dynamic large-size tilt-rotors based on blade element…
We review recent relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of jets, and their interpretation in terms of the results from linear stability analysis. These studies show that, interpreted naively, the distribution of synchrotron intensity will in…
The Lorenz '96 model is an adjustable dimension system of ODEs exhibiting chaotic behavior representative of dynamics observed in the Earth's atmosphere. In the present study, we characterize statistical properties of the chaotic dynamics…
We consider a two-parameter family of cylindrical force-free equilibria, modeled to match numerical simulations of relativistic force-free jets. We study the linear stability of these equilibria, assuming a rigid impenetrable wall at the…
Jets powered by active galactic nuclei appear impressively stable compared with their terrestrial and laboratory counterparts-they can be traced from their origin to distances exceeding their injection radius by up to a billion times.…
This study investigates the influence of aerofoil shape optimisation on blade aerodynamic performance under curvilinear and unsteady kinematics characteristic of vertical-axis turbines and cycloidal propellers. Using a cyclorotor in hover…
The stability of Lattice Boltzmann Equations modelling Shallow Water Equations in the special case of reduced gravity is investigated theoretically. A stability notion is defined as applied in incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in…
Flapping animal flight is often modeled as a combined pitching and heaving motion in order to investigate the unsteady flow structures and resulting forces that could augment the animal's lift and propulsive capabilities. This work isolates…
