Population Dynamics At High Reynolds Number [PDF]
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-localization and a remarkable reduction in the carrying capacity. The statistical properties of the population

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

Low Reynolds Number Rotor Blade Aerodynamic Analysis
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.

Stochastic low Reynolds number swimmers [PDF]
As technological advances allow us to fabricate smaller autonomous self-propelled devices, it is clear that at some point directed propulsion could not come from pre-specified deterministic periodic deformation of the swimmer's body and we need to develop strategies to extract a net directed motion from a series of random transitions in the ...

Rotor blade design and dynamic characteristics analysis of unmanned helicopter
The widespread application of composite materials in blades also makes the force and stiffness characteristics of blades more complex than traditional blades.

Numerical Validation of a Multi-Dimensional Similarity Law for Scaled STOVL Aircraft Models
The complex jet-ground interactions of Short Take-off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft are critical to flight safety and performance, yet studying them with traditional full-scale wind tunnel tests is prohibitively expensive and time-consuming ...

Optimal Swimming at Low Reynolds Numbers [PDF]
Efficient swimming at low Reynolds numbers is a major concern of microbots. To compare the efficiencies of different swimmers we introduce the notion of ``swimming drag coefficient'' which allows for the ranking of swimmers. We find the optimal swimmer within a certain class of two dimensional swimmers using conformal mappings techniques.

Supercritical wings are widely used in large aircraft due to their excellent transonic performance, but their aerodynamic characteristics are highly sensitive to Reynolds number. To systematically study the influence of Reynolds number on the aerodynamic
