Open-Wheel Aerodynamics: Effects of Tyre Deformation and Internal Flow [PDF]
, 2013 Competitive performance of an F1 race car relies upon a well designed and highly developed aerodynamic system. In order to achieve this, total understanding of the downstream wake of exposed rotating wheels is essential.

Development and evaluation of an aerodynamic model for a novel vertical axis wind turbine concept [PDF]
, 2013 There has been a resurgence of interest in the development of vertical axis wind turbines which have several inherent attributes that offer some advantages for offshore operations, particularly their scalability and low over-turning moments with better ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We present a tissue‐stimulator platform for seamless electrode integration with pancreatic tissue, applying uniform electrical stimulation through optimized design with biohybrid 3D printing. Advantageous effects of electrical stimulation on β‐cell function were observed, including enhanced calcium signaling, islet morphology, and maturation.

Definition and discussion of the intrinsic efficiency of winglets [PDF]
INCAS Bulletin, 2018 Three simple equations are derived to define the “Intrinsic Aerodynamic Efficiency of Winglets” independent of the horizontal extension of the winglet and independent of the winglet’s (relative) height.

Spacecraft Flight in the Atmosphere [PDF]
, 2014 Spacecraft that orbit in Low Earth Orbit travel through a tenuous atmosphere and hence experience aerodynamic forces that can become quite significant, specially at low altitudes. The presence of these forces can become a major design driver for missions

A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.
