Aerodynamic Effects of Ceiling and Ground Vicinity on Flapping Wings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The combined ceiling and ground effect on the aerodynamics of a hovering flapping wing is investigated using numerical simulations. In the simulations, the wing was located between the ceiling and the ground.

Wake behind a Compound Wing in Ground Effect

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Flow structure is a crucial point for the conceptual design of Wing-in-Ground effect (WIG) crafts. In this study, pressure distributions around a compound wing, velocity and the turbulent intensity distribution in the wake area after trailing of the wing,

Ground Effect in Fruit Fly Hovering: A Three-Dimensional Computational Study

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
In very few studies it is shown that an increase in vertical force can be achieved when a flapping-wing hovers in ground effect (IGE). The body, however, has usually been neglected and its influence on three-dimensional vortex structures and consequent ...

Toward Hybrid CAA with Ground Effects [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aeroacoustics, 2014
CAA based on the Linearised Euler Equations (LEE) is applied to propagate aerodynamic sound over an extended distance including ground effects. The LEE are coupled to data from an LES via an acoustic analogy to follow-up the sound from the source to the extended far field: the complete chain is illustrated on the sound generated by a cylinder in a M ∼

Grounding as a Side‐Effect of Grounding [PDF]

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, 2018
AbstractIn relation to semantics, “grounding” has (at least) two relevant meanings. “Symbol grounding” is the process of connecting symbols (e.g., words) to perception and the world. “Communicative grounding” is the process of interactively adding to common ground in dialog. Strategies for grounding in human communication include, crucially, strategies

Safety analysis of rotors in ground effect [PDF]

open access: yesAerospace Science and Technology, 2021
In this work, computational fluid dynamics was used to support safety analyses of rotors operating in ground effect. Initially, the research focused on the evaluation and prediction of the outwash generated by a hovering micro-rotor, and time-averaged outflow velocities were compared with experimental results. Then, using scaling factors, the simulated

Investigation of Heaving-pitching Airfoil in Ground Proximity using Large Eddy Simulations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
This study examines the aerodynamics of a wing-in-ground (WIG) airfoil subjected to heaving (plunging) & pitching motion, specifically examining the distinctions in flow between transitional and turbulent states, which are essential for assessing its ...

CePdAl - a Kondo lattice with partial frustration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Magnetic frustration, which is well-defined in insulating systems with localized magnetic moments, yields exotic ground states like spin ices, spin glasses, or spin liquids.
