Cross-flow, or vertical-axis, turbines are a promising technology for capturing kinetic energy in wind or flowing water and their inherently unsteady fluid mechanics present unique opportunities for control optimization of individual rotors…
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…
The flow past a fixed finite-length circular cylinder, the axis of which makes a nonzero angle with the incoming stream, is studied through fully-resolved simulations, from creeping-flow conditions to strongly inertial regimes. The…
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…
A turbulent circular disk wake database (Chongsiripinyo \& Sarkar, \textit{J. Fluid Mech.}, vol. 885, 2020) at Reynolds number $\textit{Re} = U_\infty D/\nu = 5 \times 10^{4}$ is interrogated to identify the presence of large-scale streaks…
The present work numerically investigates vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of a two-dimensional circular cylinder with an axisymmetric slit at Reynolds number 500. The study examines the effects of slit shape (i.e., converging, diverging,…
The present article aims to study the suppression of vortex shedding using a passive flow control technique (slit through a circular cylinder) in the laminar regime (Re=100-500). The slit width ratio S/D (slit width/diameter) on the…
The vortex dynamics of laminar flow past a rectangular cavity is investigated using simulations and experiments. The flow is three-dimensional and characterized by a large, dominant vortex structure that fills most of the cavity at moderate…
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…
Viscous flow past a finite plate which is impulsively started in direction normal to itself is studied numerically using a high order mixed finite difference and semi-Lagrangian scheme. The goal is to resolve details of the vorticity…
Large eddy simulations (LES) are employed to investigate the role of time-varying currents on the form drag and vortex dynamics of submerged 3D topography in a stratified rotating environment. The current is of the form $U_c+U_t \sin(2\pi…
In this work, the coupled dynamics of the gap flow and the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) on a side-by-side (SBS) arrangement of two circular cylinders is numerically investigated at moderate Reynolds number 100 < Re < 800. Of particular…
Large eddy simulations and three-dimensional proper orthogonal decomposition were used to study the interaction between a large stationary and moving bluff body and a high Reynolds number stably-stratified turbulent boundary layer. An…
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) with dynamic sub-grid scale eddy viscosity model has been applied to numerically investigate the evolution of complicated flow structures in supersonic base flow with mass bleed. Mean flow properties obtained…
Reduced-order representations of an ensemble of cylinder wake transients are investigated. Locally linear embedding identifies a two-dimensional manifold with a maximum error of 1% from new snapshot data. This representation outperforms a…
The separated flow over a wall-mounted bump geometry under harmonic oscillations of the inflow stream is investigated by direct numerical simulations. The bump geometry gives rise to streamwise pressure gradients similar to those…
The present work reports on the flow physics of turbulent supersonic flow over backward facing step (BFS) at Mach 2 using LES methodology where the dynamic Smagorinsky model is used for SGS modeling, while POD is invoked to identify 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 present study investigates the passive flow control phenomena over a two-dimensional circular cylinder using numerical simulations in the laminar regime. The aim is to explore one of the passive control techniques, which involves the…
We present simulations of a circular cylinder undergoing vortex-induced vibration in-line with a free stream in conjunction with a theory for the fluid dynamics. Initially, it is shown that increasing the Reynolds number from 100 to 250…
