Plunging Airfoil: Reynolds Number and Angle of Attack Effects

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
Natural flight has consistently been the wellspring of many creative minds, yet recreating the propulsive systems of natural flyers is quite hard and challenging.

Rotor blade design and dynamic characteristics analysis of unmanned helicopter

open access: yesHangkong gongcheng jinzhan
The widespread application of composite materials in blades also makes the force and stiffness characteristics of blades more complex than traditional blades.

Low Reynolds Number Rotor Blade Aerodynamic Analysis

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
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.

Optimal Swimming at Low Reynolds Numbers [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2004
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.

A 'reciprocal' theorem for the prediction of loads on a body moving in an inhomogeneous flow at arbitrary Reynolds number - CORRIGENDUM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Several forms of a theorem providing general expressions for the force and torque acting on a rigid body of arbitrary shape moving in an inhomogeneous incompressible flow at arbitrary Reynolds number are derived.

Numerical Validation of a Multi-Dimensional Similarity Law for Scaled STOVL Aircraft Models

open access: yesAerospace
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 ...

Design and Wind Tunnel Test of Control Laws for High Angle of Attack Flight of Low-Aspect-Ratio Flying-Wing UAVs Based on NDI

open access: yesDrones
Low-aspect-ratio flying-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are attractive drone platforms for civilian remote sensing, environmental monitoring, infrastructure inspection, disaster assessment, and persistent public-service monitoring because their ...

Decay of Turbulence at High Reynolds Numbers [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2015
Turbulent motions in a fluid decay at a certain rate once stirring has stopped. The role of the most basic parameter in fluid mechanics, the Reynolds number, in setting the decay rate is not generally known. This Letter concerns the high-Reynolds-number limit of the process. In a classical grid-turbulence wind-tunnel experiment that both reaches higher

Dynamics of a high-Reynolds-number bubble rising within a thin gap [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We report an experimental analysis of path and shape oscillations of an air bubble of diameter d rising in water at high Reynolds number in a vertical Hele-Shaw cell of width h.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.
