Unsteady forces on an accelerating plate and application to hovering insect flight [PDF]
The aerodynamic forces on a flat plate accelerating from rest at fixed incidence in two-dimensional power-law flow are studied analytically and numerically.

Climate dynamics and fluid mechanics: Natural variability and related uncertainties
The purpose of this review-and-research paper is twofold: (i) to review the role played in climate dynamics by fluid-dynamical models; and (ii) to contribute to the understanding and reduction of the uncertainties in future climate-change projections. To

Delay of vortex ring pinchoff by an imposed bulk counterflow [PDF]
The Kelvin–Benjamin variational principle has been previously used to predict that vortex ring pinchoff can be delayed if the energy of the leading vortex ring is decreased during formation and/or the energy delivered by the vortex generator is increased.

Computational fluid dynamic simulations of a cavopulmonary assist device for failing Fontan circulation [PDF]
Adult patients who have undergone the Fontan procedure are highly vulnerable to gradual, progressive circulatory failure, and options to reverse this situation are few. A cavopulmonary assist device could decongest the venous and lymphatic systems, overcome elevated pulmonary vascular resistance, increase cardiac output, and support some of these ...

Presence of natural fractures in sub-surface makes an oil well drilling operation very challenging. As one of the major functions of drilling mud is to maintain bottomhole pressure inside a wellbore to avoid any invasion of unwanted high-pressure influx (

Lyapunov Exponents of Two Stochastic Lorenz 63 Systems [PDF]
Two different types of perturbations of the Lorenz 63 dynamical system for Rayleigh-Benard convection by multiplicative noise -- called stochastic advection by Lie transport (SALT) noise and fluctuation-dissipation (FD) noise -- are found to produce ...

Simulation and optimization of airlift external circulation membrane bioreactor using computational fluid dynamics [PDF]
The airlift external circulation membrane bioreactor (AEC-MBR) is a new MBR consisting of a separated aeration tank and membrane tank with circulating pipes fixed between the two tanks. The circulating pipe is called a H circulating pipe (HCP) because of its shape.

Optimization of Meridional Flow Channel Design of Pump Impeller
The meridional flow channel design of a pump impeller affects its performance. However, since so many design parameters exist, a new design method is proposed in which a meridional and blade-to-blade flow channel is designed by the parallel use of the ...
