A fully discrete formalism is introduced to perform stability analysis of a turbulent compressible flow whom dynamics is modeled with the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. The discrete equations are linearized using finite…
We present a numerical study to investigate the fluid-structure interaction of a flexible circular cantilever cylinder in a uniform cross-flow. We employ a fully-coupled fluid-structure solver based on the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes…
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…
We develop a one-dimensional model for the unsteady fluid--structure interaction (FSI) between a soft-walled microchannel and viscous fluid flow within it. A beam equation, which accounts for both transverse bending rigidity and nonlinear…
Fluid-structure interactions are ubiquitous in nature and technology. However, the systems are often so complex that numerical simulations or ad hoc assumptions must be used to gain insight into the details of the complex interactions…
Modal analysis of fluid flows is essential to understand flow physics and fluid-solid interaction mechanisms, and to implement flow control. Unlike unstable flow, the intrinsic attenuation of subcritical flow has led to failures to…
Flow over bluff bodies has multiple engineering applications and thus, has been studied for decades. The lift and drag coefficients are practically important in the design of many components such as automobiles, aircrafts, buildings etc.…
An interface control principle is proposed for unsteady fluid-structure in- teraction (FSI) analyses. This principle introduces a method of explicitly controlling the interface motion in the temporal direction to minimize the residual force…
We propose a validated fluid-structure interaction simulation framework based on strip methods for the vortex-induced vibration of a flexible pipe. The numerical results are compared with the experimental data from three previous steady…
In recent decades novel solid substrates have been designed which change their wettability in response to light or an electrostatic field. Here, we investigate a droplet on substrates with oscillating uniform wettability by varying minimium…
Turbulent flows consist of a wide range of interacting scales. Since the scale range increases as some power of the flow Reynolds number, a faithful simulation of the entire scale range is prohibitively expensive at high Reynolds numbers.…
A variational technique is used to derive analytical expressions for the sensitivity of several geometric indicators of flow separation to steady actuation. Considering the boundary layer flow above a wall-mounted bump, the six following…
We address the problem of estimating steady-state quantities associated to systems of stochastic chemical kinetics. In most cases of interest these systems are analytically intractable, and one has to resort to computational methods to…
A phase-field method for unstructured grids that is accurate, conservative, and robust is proposed in this work. The proposed method also results in bounded transport of volume fraction, and the interface thickness adapts automatically to…
This paper numerically investigates the influence of a fixed downstream control cylinder on the flow-induced vibration of an elastically-supported primary cylinder. These two cylinders are situated in a tandem arrangement with small…
We present a novel framework inspired by the Immersed Boundary Method for predicting the fluid-structure interaction of complex structures immersed in flows with moderate to high Reynolds numbers. The main novelties of the proposed…
The hydrodynamics of viscoelastic materials (for example polymer melts and solutions) presents interesting and complex phenomena, for example instabilities and turbulent flow at very low Reynolds numbers due to normal stress effects and the…
We analyze the linear stability of the base state of the problem of coupled flow and deformation in a long and shallow rectangular soft hydraulic conduit with a thick top wall. Specifically, the steady base state is computed at low but…
This paper uses compressible flow simulation to analyze the hyperbolicity, shadowing directions, and sensitivities of a weakly turbulent three dimensional cylinder flow at Reynolds number 525 and Mach number 0.1. By computing the first 40…
Experiments have shown that flow in compliant microchannels can become unstable at a much lower Reynolds number than the corresponding flow in a rigid conduit. Therefore, it has been suggested that the wall's elastic compliance can be…
