Rotational Maneuvers of Copepod Nauplii at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesFluids, 2020
Copepods are agile microcrustaceans that are capable of maneuvering freely in water. However, the physical mechanisms driving their rotational motion are not entirely clear in small larvae (nauplii).

Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Low Reynolds Number Flows over Cylinder

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Physics-informed neural network (PINN) architectures are recent developments that can act as surrogate models for fluid dynamics in order to reduce computational costs.

Biotechnology at low Reynolds numbers

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1996
The shrinking of liquid handling systems to the micron and submicron size range entails moving into the area of small Reynolds numbers. The fluid dynamics in this regime are very different from the macroscale. We present an intuitive explanation of how the different physics of small Reynolds numbers flow, along with microscopic sizes, can influence ...

Optimal Strokes of Low Reynolds Number Linked-Sphere Swimmers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019

Numerical simulation of low reynolds number 2-d rough blade compressor cascade

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
In this paper, a double-circular-arc cascade was used as the research object to study the effect of roughness on the compressor cascade under the conditions of different incoming attack angles. The Reynolds number of the cascade is 1.5×105 .

Low-Reynolds-number swimming in a capillary tube [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2013
AbstractWe use the boundary element method to study the low-Reynolds-number locomotion of a spherical model microorganism in a circular tube. The swimmer propels itself by tangential or normal surface motion in a tube whose radius is of the order of the swimmer size.

Low Reynolds Number Rotor Blade Aerodynamic Analysis

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Maintaining a steady hover flight in a rotorcraft usually requires high energy input. The aim of the paper is to prove that it is possible to vastly reduce energy use in a rotorcraft by reducing the disc loading.

Leading-Edge Vortex Characteristics of Low-Aspect-Ratio Sweptback Plates at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
A sweptback angle can directly regulate a leading-edge vortex on various aerodynamic devices as well as on the wings of biological flyers, but the effect of a sweptback angle has not yet been sufficiently investigated.

Design of a control system for a 1.5 m diameter coaxial rigid rotor model

open access: yesHangkong gongcheng jinzhan
As a key equipment for rotor wind tunnel testing, the design specifications and control accuracy of the rotor test bench directly determine the testing accuracy and effectiveness of the rotor wind tunnel testing.

Control surface effectiveness of low Reynolds number flight vehicles

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2014
Low-speed wind tunnel tests are carried out to investigate the control surface effectiveness at low Reynolds numbers (Re = 20,000-80,000). A thick airfoil, NACA0012, has a nonlinearity of the control surface effectiveness, which are associated with flow ...
