Rotational Maneuvers of Copepod Nauplii at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesFluids, 2020
Copepods are agile microcrustaceans that are capable of maneuvering freely in water. However, the physical mechanisms driving their rotational motion are not entirely clear in small larvae (nauplii).

Strouhal number analysis for the swimming of little penguin (Eudyptula minor): Proof of efficient underwater propulsion

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
Penguins are the utmost specialized wing-propelled divers as their flapping action is accountable for the entire underwater propulsion. However, numerical evidence of how efficient their underwater propulsion is has not been studied to date.

Surrogate‐Optimized Flow‐Guided Miniature Condenser for Rapid Exhaled Glucose Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A surrogate‐optimized miniature condenser guides humid exhaled flow toward cold surfaces to accelerate exhaled breath condensate collection. By improving vapor access within a compact footprint, the design increases sample yield. This enables post‐collection enrichment and rapid colorimetric glucose detection from dilute exhaled biomarkers within a 5 ...

The Universal Presence of the Reynolds Number

open access: yesFluids
The Reynolds number is a fundamental parameter in fluid dynamics, initially introduced by O. Reynolds in 1883 to characterize the transition between laminar and turbulent flow in fluids and necessary in the scaling of viscous resistance.

Numerical investigation on heat transfer behavior of thermally developing flow inside rectangular microchannels

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
A numerical investigation is conducted to study the heat transfer characteristics of laminar flow in three-dimensional rectangular microchannels with aspect ratios of 0.1–1 and Reynolds numbers of 5–400.

High Reynolds Channel Flows: Upstream interaction of various wall deformations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The flow at high Reynolds number in the entrance of distorted channel is considered. We analyse the anticipated fluid responds to a downstream wall distortion, and we find that the non linear upstream length $\Delta={\mbox{O}}(R_e^{1/7})$, using either ...

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Control surface effectiveness of low Reynolds number flight vehicles

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2014
Low-speed wind tunnel tests are carried out to investigate the control surface effectiveness at low Reynolds numbers (Re = 20,000-80,000). A thick airfoil, NACA0012, has a nonlinearity of the control surface effectiveness, which are associated with flow ...

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...
