We examine acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) measurements from underwater gliders to determine glider position, glider velocity, and subsurface current. ADCPs, however, do not directly observe the quantities of interest; instead,…
This paper describes the development and experimental results of navigation algorithms for an autonomous underwater glider (AUG) that uses an on-board acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). AUGs are buoyancy-driven autonomous underwater…
The Workhorse Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) manufactured by Teledyne RD Instruments (RDI) uses a "Bottom-Tracking" algorithm to yield data intended to represent distance to the bottom. However, current RDI software processing…
An Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) was moored at the deep-sea site of the ANTARES neutrino telescope near Toulon, France, thus providing a unique opportunity to compare high-resolution acoustic and optical observations between 70…
This study extends the flow measurement method initially proposed in [22] to three-dimensional scenarios, addressing the growing need for accurate and efficient non-contact flow measurement techniques in complex hydrodynamic environments.…
A prediction model for the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) induced by tidal-currents is proposed as a function of the barotropic velocity only, along with a robust method evaluating the different parameters involved using Acoustic Doppler…
Compact autonomous marine vehicles, both surface and submersible, are now commonly used to conduct observations of ocean velocities using Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs). However, in the inevitable presence of surface waves, ADCP…
Active grids operated with random protocols are a standard way to generate large Reynolds number turbulence in wind and water tunnels. But anomalies in the decay and third-order scaling of active-grid turbulence have been reported. We…
In this paper, we discuss selected adjoint approaches for the turbulent flow control. In particular, we focus on the application of adjoint solvers for the scope of noise reduction, in which flow solutions are obtained by large eddy and…
One route to improved predictive modeling of magnetically confined fusion reactors is to couple transport solvers with direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulence, rather than with surrogate models. An additional challenge presented by…
Grid turbulence is investigated using cross-correlation digital Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) over a range of Taylor Reynolds Number (Re{\lambda}) from 5 to 44. Instantaneous velocity is measured directly and vorticity and velocity…
High accuracy and dynamic range have been some of the most prominent challenges when it comes to fine-scale turbulence measurements. The current commercial LDA processors, which perform the signal processing of Doppler bursts directly using…
Noise pollution caused by inflow turbulence is a major problem in many applications, such as propellers and fans. Leading edge noise models, e.g., Amiet's model, are widely applied to predict the noise produced by these applications. This…
A new type of grid turbulence generator, the 3D sparse grid (3DS), is a co-planar arrangement of co-frames each containing a different length scale of grid elements [Malik, N. A. US Patent No. US 9,599,269 B2 (2017)] and possessing a much…
A fully-resolved direct-numerical-simulation (DNS) approach for investigating flexible bodies forced by a turbulent incoming flow is designed to study the flapping motion of a flexible flag at moderate Reynolds number. The incoming…
In this investigation, a data-driven turbulence closure framework is introduced and deployed for the sub-grid modelling of Kraichnan turbulence. The novelty of the proposed method lies in the fact that snapshots from high-fidelity numerical…
In the last decade, progresses in additive manufacturing (AM) have paved the way for optimized heat exchangers, whose disruptive design will depend on predictive numerical simulations. Typical AM rough surfaces show limited resemblance to…
We measure the rectified dc currents resulting when a 3-terminal semiconductor device with gate-dependent conductance is driven with an ac gate voltage. The rectified currents exhibit surprisingly complex behaviour as the dc source-drain…
Self-consistent full-size turbulent-transport simulations of the divertor and SOL of existing tokamaks have recently become feasible. This enables the direct comparison of turbulence simulations against experimental measurements. In this…
This paper presents a novel Dynam-i-c Droop (iDroop) control mechanism to perform primary frequency control with gird-connected inverters that improves the network dynamic performance. The work is motivated by the dynamic degradation…
