Numerical simulations are conducted to analyze flow characteristics around two tandem sharp-edged cylinders with cross sections of square (b*1 = 1) for the upstream cylinder and rectangle (b*2) for the downstream cylinder (b* = b/a, where a…
We study the large-scale helical vortex shedding regime in the wake of an axisymmetric body with a blunt trailing edge at high Reynolds numbers, both experimentally and by means of local, linear, spatiotemporal stability analysis. In the…
Hysteresis has been observed in a study of the transition between laminar flow and vortex shedding in a quasi-two dimensional system. The system is a vertical, rapidly flowing soap film which is penetrated by a rod oriented perpendicular to…
It is shown that the addition of small amounts of microscopic rods in a viscous fluid at low Reynolds number causes a significant increase of the flow resistance. Numerical simulations of the dynamics of the solution reveal that this…
In this paper, we investigate the controllability of the point vortex system by means of a single vortex. The point vortex system is a well-known simplied model for the incompressible Euler equation, where the vorticity is concentrated in a…
The paper presents a numerical investigation of the leading-edge vortices generated by rotating triangular wings at Reynolds number $Re=250$. A series of three-dimensional numerical simulations have been carried out using a Fourier…
Closed-loop control of turbulent flows is a challenging problem with important practical and fundamental implications. We perform closed-loop control of forced, turbulent jets based on a wave-cancellation strategy. The study is motivated by…
In this study, a simple model based closed-loop algorithm is used to control the separated flow downstream a backward-facing step. It has been shown in previous studies that the recirculation bubble can be minimized when exciting the shear…
Wind tunnel tests of 2D rough cylinders are presented. The goal is to simulate the alternate vortex shedding in flow regimes encountered in wind engineering applications, where the full scale Reynolds number is larger than the one that can…
Non-linear oscillations of an elliptical cylinder, that can rotate about an axis that passes through its symmetry axle due to a torsional spring and hydrodynamic torque produced by the flow of a Newtonian fluid, were analysed in terms of a…
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…
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…
When vortex rings collide head-on at high enough Reynolds numbers, they ultimately annihilate through a violent interaction which breaks down their cores into a turbulent cloud. We experimentally show that this very strong interaction,…
The swirling flow in a Francis type hydropower turbine is known to be susceptible to the formation of a large helical structure, commonly referred to as a vortex rope. This vortex rope can be interpreted as an unstable mode associated with…
This paper presents results of three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) and global linear stability analyses (LSA) of a viscous incompressible flow past a finite-length cylinder with two free flat ends. The cylindrical axis is…
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…
An improved understanding of how vortices develop and propagate under pulsatile flow can shed important light on the mixing and transport processes including the transition to turbulent regime occurring in such systems. For example, the…
Vortex shedding around circular cylinders is a well known and studied phenomenon that appears in many engineering fields. A Reduced Order Model (ROM) of the incompressible flow around a circular cylinder is presented in this work. The ROM…
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…
This work is concerned with the numerical investigation of the dynamics of stopping vortex formation in the uniform flow past a wedge mounted on a wall for channel Reynolds number $Re_c=1560$. The streamfunction-vorticity ($\psi$-$\omega$)…
