Lift at low Reynolds number [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 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]

open access: yesESAIM: 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-

Turbulence Model Selection for Low Reynolds Number Flows. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Holography of the QGP Reynolds number

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2017
The viscosity of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP) is usually described holographically by the entropy-normalized dynamic viscosity η/s. However, other measures of viscosity, such as the kinematic viscosity ν and the Reynolds number Re, are often useful, and ...

Population dynamics at high Reynolds number [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2010
We study the statistical properties of population dynamics evolving in a realistic two-dimensional compressible turbulent velocity field. We show that the interplay between turbulent dynamics and population growth and saturation leads to quasi ...

Life at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
E d i t o r’s note: This is a reprint (slightly edited) of a paper of the same title that appeared in the book Physics and Our World: A Symposium in Honor of Victor F. Weisskopf, published by the American Institute of Physics (1976). The personal tone of the original talk has been preserved in the paper, which was itself a slightly edited transcript of

Three-sphere swimmer in two dimensions at low Reynolds number condition [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی 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 ...

Numerical Study of the Effect of the Reynolds Number and the Turbulence Intensity on the Performance of the NACA 0018 Airfoil at the Low Reynolds Number Regime

open access: yesProcesses, 2022
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the old NACA four-digit series when designing wind turbines or small aircraft. One of the airfoils frequently used for this purpose is the NACA 0018 profile. However, since 1933, for over 70 years,

Towards the definition of a benchmark for low Reynolds number propeller aeroacoustics

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Experimental and numerical results of a propeller of 0.3 m diameter operated in quiescent standard ambient conditions at 5000 RPM and axial velocity ranging from 0 to 20 m/s and advance ratio ranging from 0 to 0.8 are presented as a preliminary step ...
