Turbulence Model Selection for Low Reynolds Number Flows. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 One of the major flow phenomena associated with low Reynolds number flow is the formation of separation bubbles on an airfoil's surface. NACA4415 airfoil is commonly used in wind turbines and UAV applications.

Stokesian swimming of a prolate spheroid at low Reynolds number [PDF]
, 2016 The swimming of a spheroid immersed in a viscous fluid and performing surface deformations periodically in time is studied on the basis of Stokes equations of low Reynolds number hydrodynamics.

The performance of discrete models of low reynolds number swimmers
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2015 Swimming by shape changes at low Reynolds number is widely used in biology andunderstanding how the performance of movement depends on the geometric pattern ofshape changes is important to understand swimming of microorganisms and in designing ...

The role of symmetry in driven propulsion at low Reynolds number [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2018 We theoretically and experimentally investigate low-Reynolds-number propulsion of geometrically achiral planar objects that possess a dipole moment and that are driven by a rotating magnetic field. Symmetry considerations (involving parity, $\widehat{P}$,

Laminarisation of flow at low Reynolds number due to streamwise body force [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2016 It is well established that when a turbulent flow is subjected to a non-uniform body force, the turbulence may be significantly suppressed in comparison with that of the flow of the same flow rate and hence the flow is said to be laminarised. This is the

Three-Dimensional Low Reynolds Number Flows near Biological Filtering and Protective Layers
Fluids, 2017 Mesoscale filtering and protective layers are replete throughout the natural world. Within the body, arrays of extracellular proteins, microvilli, and cilia can act as both protective layers and mechanosensors.

Three-sphere swimmer in two dimensions at low Reynolds number condition [PDF]
مهندسی مکانیک شریف, 2022 Being widely ubiquitous in fluidic mediums from aquatic environments to bodies, for the sake of their mobility, microorganisms, such as bacteria and motile cells, make use of particular swimming strategies that are counter-intuitive to that of our daily ...

Lift at low Reynolds number [PDF]
The European Physical Journal E : Soft matter, 2022 Lift forces are widespread in hydrodynamics. These are typically observed for big and fast objects and are often associated with a combination of fluid inertia (i.e. large Reynolds numbers) and specific symmetry-breaking mechanisms.

Swimming at low Reynolds number [PDF]
ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2020 We address the swimming problem at low Reynolds number. This regime, which is typically used for micro-swimmers, is described by Stokes equations. We couple a PDE solver of Stokes equations, derived from the Feel++ finite elements library, to a quaternion-

Fluid-Elastic Interactions near Contact at Low Reynolds Number
Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 Interactions between fluid flow and elastic structures are important in many naturally occurring and engineered systems. This review collects and organizes recent theoretical and experimental developments in understanding fluid-structure interactions at ...
