Investigation of a drag reduction on a circular cylinder in rotary oscillation [PDF]
Drag reduction in two-dimensional flow over a circular cylinder, achieved using rotary oscillation, was investigated with computational simulations. In the experiments of Tokumaru & Dimotakis (1991), this mechanism was observed to yield up to 80% drag ...

Passive Control of Base Pressure: A Review
In the present world, passive control finds application in various areas like flow over blunt projectiles, missiles, supersonic parallel diffusers (for cruise correction), the engine of jets, static testbeds of rockets, the ports of internal combustion ...

Spacecraft rendezvous by differential drag under uncertainties [PDF]
At low Earth orbits, differentials in the drag forces between spacecraft can be used for controlling their relative motion in the orbital plane. Current methods for determining the drag force may result in errors due to inaccuracies in the density models

Model-based electrospinning process design for nanofibers production
The main concept of the electrospinning process modeling is to overcome difficulties associated with the experimental-based optimization procedure. Thus, 3-dimensional polynomial models were discussed in this work.

Bubbly Turbulent Drag Reduction Is a Boundary Layer Effect [PDF]
In turbulent Taylor-Couette flow, the injection of bubbles reduces the overall drag. On the other hand, rough walls enhance the overall drag. In this work, we inject bubbles into turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with rough walls (with a Reynolds number up ...

Drag enhancement and drag reduction in viscoelastic flow [PDF]
Creeping flow of polymeric fluid without inertia exhibits elastic instabilities and elastic turbulence accompanied by drag enhancement due to elastic stress produced by flow-stretched polymers.

Jenny Offill’s Dept. of Speculation and the Revival of Fragmentary Writing
The last decade has seen a revival of interest in novels that follow a fragmentary structure. David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas (2005), J. M. Coetzee’s Diary of a Bad Year (2007) and Richard McGuire’s graphic novel Here (2014) are among the most notable ...

The Goldsmiths Prize and Its Conceptualization of Experimental Literature [PDF]
In the aftermath of a critical debate regarding the Man Booker Prize’s adoption of ‘readability’ as the main criterion of literary value, Goldsmiths College established a new literary prize. The Goldsmiths Prize was launched in 2013
