Effect of wake interaction on the response of two tandem oscillating hydrofoils [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2019
AbstractIn this study, using a hydraulic system couples 2 hydrofoils and fulfills the fully flow‐induced oscillating motion. Two hydrofoils have a tandem spatial configuration because in such arrangement allows the turbine to reach a higher efficiency.

Untangling sedimentation processes in a deep fjord lake in Labrador: A high‐resolution archive of past environment dynamics at Grand Lake

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1259-1284, November 2025.
Sedimentological and geochemical characteristics are used to reconstruct sedimentation dynamics and erosional processes. Several rapidly deposited layers are characterised over changing depositional environments during the Late Holocene, from a phase when the lake was connected to the sea to a more stable state conducive to varve formation.

Flow Memory Effect on Open‐Frame Remotely Operated Vehicle Motion

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 2611-2638, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The flow memory effect is a kind of viscous force caused by acceleration between continuous phases and underwater vehicles and the development of the boundary layer near the interfacial surface. This paper establishes a 6‐degrees‐of‐freedom unsteady equation of motion describing the flow memory effect on viscous hydrodynamic loads.

Analysis of the Unsteady Flow Around a Hydrofoil at Various Incidences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The oscillating hydrofoils used in underwater propulsion devices often experience large variations of the flow incidence, which favors cavitation at large angle of attack, and therefore a severe degradation of the performance, additional flow instability,
