Beltrami fields and knotted vortex structures in incompressible fluid flows
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 1059-1103, June 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper gives a survey on recent results about the existence of knotted vortex structures in incompressible fluids. This includes the proof of Lord Kelvin's conjecture on the existence of knotted vortex tubes in steady Euler flows and a new probabilistic approach to address Arnold's speculation that typical Beltrami fields should exhibit ...

Ship waves in rivers: Environmental criteria and analysis methods for measurements
River Research and Applications, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 629-647, May 2023., 2023 Abstract A literature review shows that the most important physical quantities determining environmental impact of ship waves in a waterway are the fluid velocities, maximum and minimum water levels, and size of drawdown events. Fluid velocity can vary strongly in the vertical so that the usual measurements at a single point are not enough unless made ...

Lake dynamics in an Early Jurassic desert: Evidence from the Clarens Formation in southern Africa
Sedimentology, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 865-894, April 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Interdune deposits are sensitive to climatic fluctuations and ancient interdune lacustrine systems can reveal the drivers of erg dynamics through time and space. This southern African study details the dynamics of interdune deposition in a vast ancient desert system that was active over Pangaea in the Middle Mesozoic and formed part of one of ...

Role of Shape and Kinematics in the Hydrodynamics of a Fish-like Oscillating Hydrofoil
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 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

Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Cetaceans both depart from and are defined by their mammalian biology. This paradox is best exemplified during embryonic development. Here, we discuss stages of prenatal development in the beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas), the bowhead whale (Balaena mysticetus), and the pan‐tropical spotted dolphin (Stenella attenuata), calling attention to ...

Optimal Design and Numerical Simulation on Fish-Like Flexible Hydrofoil Propeller
Polish Maritime Research, 2016 Hydrofoil is widely used in underwater vehicle for the excellent hydrodynamic characteristics. Currently, researches are mostly about the rigid hydrofoil while the flexible hydrofoil, like the caudal fin, has not been studied adequately.

Pressure Characteristics and Cavitation on an Oscillating Hydrofoil
Journal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1972 Unsteady cavitation that results from the non-uniformity of the flow field renders evil influences on marine propellers. It has been a general experiment for the investigation on such problems to observe unsteady cavitation in a flow field analogous to a wake pattern.
