The present work investigates sidewall effects on the characteristics of three-dimensional (3D) compressible flows over a rectangular cavity with aspect ratios of $L/D=6$ and $W/D=2$ at $Re_D=10^4$ using large eddy simulations (LES). For…
We perform direct numerical simulations of flows over finite-aspect-ratio rotating circular cylinders at a Reynolds number of 150 over a range of aspect ratios ($AR=2-12$) and rotation rates ($\alpha=0-5$), aiming at revealing the free-end…
The vortex dynamics resulting from the interaction of synthetic jets with turbulent boundary layers was investigated experimentally using stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (SPIV). Three aspect ratio 18 rectangular orifice geometries…
High-fidelity wall-resolved large-eddy simulations (LES) are utilized to investigate the flow-physics of small-amplitude pitch oscillations of an airfoil at Re = 100,000. The investigation of the unsteady phenomenon is done in the context…
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…
The flapping of flags is a classical problem involving fast and large amplitude deformations of a thin flexible plate and unsteady flow phenomena. We perform systematic time and space-resolved measurements of the deformation and drag acting…
Tall buildings are often subjected to steady and unsteady forces due to external wind flows. Measurement and mitigation of these forces becomes critical to structural design in engineering applications. Over the last few decades, many…
We investigate ambient fluid entrainment and near-field flow characteristics of a free surface plunging jet for five Reynolds numbers ranging from 3000 to 10000 using time-resolved stereo particle image velocimetry (SPIV). We present…
We perform DNS of flow over finite-aspect-ratio NACA 0015 wings to characterize the tip effects on the wake dynamics. This study focuses on the development of three-dimensional separated flow over the wing, and discuss flow structures…
Flatback airfoils, characterized by a blunt trailing edge, are used at the root of large wind turbine blades. A low-drag pocket has recently been identified in the flow past these airfoils at high angles of attack, potentially offering…
The impact of fluidic actuation on the wake and drag of a three-dimensional blunt body is investigated experimentally. Jets blowing tangentially to the main flow allow to force the wake with variable frequency and amplitude. Depending on…
This research investigates the three-dimensional effects of flow around a pair of flapping wings undergoing clap-and-fling interactions through harmonic in-plane motions combining pitching, heaving, and deviation. Both wings mirror each…
This study investigates a mechanism of controlling separated flows around an airfoil using a synthetic jet (SJ). A large-eddy simulation (LES) was performed for a leading-edge separation flow around a NACA0015 airfoil at the chord Reynolds…
In this article we present recent developments in numerical methods for performing a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of the formation and evolution of a wingtip vortex. The development of these vortices in the near wake, in combination with the…
Active flow control for drag reduction with reinforcement learning (RL) is performed in the wake of a 2D square bluff body at laminar regimes with vortex shedding. Controllers parameterised by neural networks are trained to drive two…
The intakes of air-breathing high-speed flying vehicles produce a large share of the thrust propulsion. Furthermore, the propulsion performance of these engines increases when the single-ramp intake is replaced with a multiple-ramps intake.…
Introducing a fluid microjet into the boundary layer to increase fluid momentum and hence delay separation is a method for actively controlling a flow separation region. The present work numerically analyzed the control of a separation…

This paper examines how increasing the value of the Reynolds number $Re$ affects the ability of spanwise-forcing techniques to yield turbulent skin-friction drag reduction. The considered forcing is based on the streamwise-travelling waves…
