Leading-edge vortex dynamics on plunging airfoils and wings

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022
The vortex dynamics of leading-edge vortices on plunging high-aspect-ratio (AR = 10) wings and airfoils were investigated by means of volumetric velocity measurements, numerical simulations and stability analysis to understand the deformation of the leading-edge vortex filament and spanwise instabilities.

Hovering hummingbird wing aerodynamics during the annual cycle. I. Complete wing [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2017
The diverse hummingbird family (Trochilidae) has unique adaptations for nectarivory, among which is the ability to sustain hover-feeding. As hummingbirds mainly feed while hovering, it is crucial to maintain this ability throughout the annual cycle ...

The leading-edge vortex and quasisteady vortex shedding on an accelerating plate [PDF]

Physics of Fluids, 2010
A computational inquiry focuses on leading-edge vortex (LEV) growth and shedding during acceleration of a two-dimensional flat plate at a fixed 10°–60° angle of attack and low Reynolds number. The plate accelerates from rest with a velocity given by a power of time ranging from 0 to 5.
