Effects of rotor separation on the axial descent performance of dual-rotor configurations
Flow, 2023 Rotorcraft can encounter highly unsteady flow when descending at a steep angle, leading to a flow condition called vortex ring state, which is associated with strong oscillatory airloads and substantial losses in mean rotor thrust.

Emergence of in-line swimming patterns in zebrafish pairs
Flow, 2021 Mathematical models promise new insights into the mechanisms underlying the emergence of collective behaviour in fish. Here, we establish a mathematical model to examine collective behaviour of zebrafish, a popular animal species in preclinical research.

Flow, 2021 In recent years, observations of the atmospheric surface layer have greatly promoted research on high-Reynolds-number wall-bounded turbulence, especially observations of wind-blown sand flows/sandstorms, which are typical sand-laden two-phase flows ...

On the thermal effect of porous material in porous media Rayleigh–Bénard convection
Flow, 2023 We perform a two-dimensional numerical study on the thermal effect of porous media on global heat transport and flow structure in Rayleigh–Bénard (RB) convection, focusing on the role of thermal conductivity $\lambda$ of porous media, which ranges from ...

Resolvent analysis of a finite wing in transonic flow
Flow, 2023 Shock waves interacting with turbulent boundary layers on wings can result first in self-sustained flow unsteadiness and eventually in structural vibration.

Numerical study of the effect of sidewalls on shock train behaviour
Flow, 2023 Strongly coupled sequences of shock waves, known as shock trains, are present in high-speed propulsion systems, where the presence of sidewalls substantially modifies the boundary layer thickness, skin friction and streamwise pressure distribution.

Flow, 2023 Ionic fluids subjected to externally applied electric fields experience Joule heating, which increases with the increased electric field and ionic conductivity of the medium. Temperature gradients induced by Joule heating can create buoyancy-driven flows
