Scale-adaptive simulation of unsteady cavitation around a naca66 hydrofoil [PDF]
Distances between consecutive aftershocks are analysed by means of mono- and multifractal theory with the aim of quantifying the complexity of the physical mechanism governing them, as well as their predictability and predictive instability.

Analysis of Bulb Turbine Hydrofoil Cavitation
The influence of a bulb runner blade hydrofoil shape on flow characteristics around the blade was studied. Experimental work was performed on a bulb turbine measuring station and a single hydrofoil in a cavitating tunnel.

Design and Implementation of a Biomimetic Turtle Hydrofoil for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
This paper presents the design and implementation of a turtle hydrofoil for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). The final design of the AUV must have navigation performance like a turtle, which has also been the biomimetic inspiration for the design ...

Thickness effect of Naca foils on hydrodynamic global parameters, boundary layer states and stall establishment [PDF]
The present study investigates experimentally the hydrodynamic behavior of 2D NACA (15, 25, 35%) symmetric hydrofoils at Reynolds number 0.5 106 . A particular attention is paid on the hysteretic behavior at static stall angle and a detailed cartography

Role of Shape and Kinematics in the Hydrodynamics of a Fish-like Oscillating Hydrofoil
In the present two-dimensional numerical study, we investigate the roles of geometrical parameters of a hydrofoil (shape/curvature of the leading and trailing edges and thickness) and kinematic parameters (phase difference between heave and pitch (ϕ)) on
