Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Asymmetry of Flow Velocity on the Wake Vortex of Hydrofoils
The Karman vortex street is a common flow phenomenon. In hydraulic machinery, it is usually located downstream of the guide vanes and the runner blades, which reduces hydraulic performance and may also cause fatigue damage to the structure.

On high-order pressure-robust space discretisations, their advantages for incompressible high Reynolds number generalised Beltrami flows and beyond [PDF]
An improved understanding of the divergence-free constraint for the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations leads to the observation that a semi-norm and corresponding equivalence classes of forces are fundamental for their nonlinear dynamics. The recent

Spatial evolution of a quasi-two-dimensional Kármán vortex street subjected to a strong uniform magnetic field [PDF]
A vortex decay model for predicting spatial evolution of peak vorticity in a wake behind a cylinder is presented. For wake vortices in the stable region behind the formation region, results have shown that the presented model has a good capability of ...

Inhomogeneous dominance patterns of competing phytoplankton groups in the wake of an island [PDF]
We investigate the competition between two different functional groups of phytoplankton in the wake of an island close to a coastal upwelling region. We couple a simple biological model with three trophic levels and a hydrodynamic model of a von Kármán ...

The vortex streets produced by a flapping foil of span-to-chord aspect ratio of 4:1 are studied in a hydrodynamic tunnel experiment. In particular, the mechanisms giving rise to the symmetry breaking of the reverse B\'enard-von K\'arm\'an vortex street ...
