This study investigates the aerodynamic performance of the symmetric NACA 0018 airfoil under harmonic pitching motions at low Reynolds numbers, a regime characterized by the presence of laminar separation bubbles and their impact on…
Combined pitching-and-surging of an airfoil at the identical frequency (i.e., synchronously), at four different phase-differences, was investigated theoretically and experimentally. The most general unsteady theoretical formulation was…
Airfoils pitching in the stalled regime have been of keen interest in recent years due to their desirable aerodynamic force characteristics. In this study, we are numerically investigating the unsteady flow past a NACA 0012 airfoil under…
Morphing wings comprised of fixed leading sections with piezocomposite trailing control surfaces have emerged as a novel active control technique for unmanned aerial vehicles. However, the wake dynamics and aerodynamic performance of such…
The flow around a symmetric aerofoil (NACA 0012) with an array of flexible flaplets attached to the trailing edge has been investigated at Reynolds numbers of 100,000 - 150,000 by using High-Speed Time-Resolved Particle Image Velocimetry…
The experiment of separated flow response to a single-burst actuation over a 2-D NACA-0009 airfoil at $12^o$ angle of attack was conducted. The mechanism of the lift and pitching moment reversal following the single-burst actuation was…
Symmetric NACA airfoils tend to undergo abrupt stall characteristics at higher angle of attacks. The abrupt stall has deteriorating effect on lift as well as the efficiency of the airfoils. Abruptness in stall restricts the airfoil to…

We study experimentally a symmetrical rigid foil performing pitching oscillations around a mean incidence angle ($\alpha_{m}$) with respect to an incoming flow in a hydrodynamic channel at a constant velocity where the Reynolds number…
Effect of airfoil thickness on onset of dynamic stall is investigated using large eddy simulations at chord-based Reynolds number of 200,000. Four symmetric NACA airfoils of thickness-to-chord ratios of 9%, 12%, 15%, and 18% are studied.…
For present study, setting Strouhal Number (St) as control parameter, numerical simulations for flow past oscillating NACA-0012 airfoil at 1,000 Reynolds Numbers (Re) are performed. Temporal profiles of unsteady forces; lift and thrust, and…

The expanding application in Micro-Air Vehicles has encouraged many researchers to understand the unsteady flow around a flapping foil at a low Reynolds number. We numerically investigate an incompressible unsteady flow around a…
The application of drag-control strategies on canonical wall-bounded turbulence, such as periodic channel and zero- or adverse-pressure-gradient boundary layers, raises the question of how to describe control effects consistently for…
In the current work we numerically study the effect of traveling-wave surface morphing actuation on the suction surface of NACA0012 at Re = 1,000. Although this actuation strategy has been studied at higher Reynolds numbers for an airfoil…
Inviscid computational results are presented on a self-propelled virtual body combined with an airfoil undergoing pitch oscillations about its leading-edge. The scaling trends of the time-averaged thrust forces are shown to be predicted…
Scaling laws for the thrust production and energetics of self-propelled or fixed-velocity three-dimensional rigid propulsors undergoing pitching motions are presented. The scaling relations extend the two-dimensional scaling laws presented…
