Drag Reduction on Microstructure Surfaces

open access: yesSakarya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü Dergisi
In this study, experimental work in the literature about friction on bird-feather like structures has been reviewed and one of these was modeled by using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) to obtain minimum grid parameters.

Taxonomic Revision of Jingle Shells: Resurrecting and Reclassifying Species of Anomiidae (Bivalvia: Pectinida)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The family Anomiidae displays taxonomic ambiguity due to morphological plasticity. We resurrect Heteranomia aculeata and Pododesmus glaucus, while reclassifying Isonomia umbonata as Pododesmus umbonatus. Phylogenetic analyses confirm these revisions and the monophyly of all genera within Anomiidae, with Pododesmus as the earliest‐diverging lineage ...

Scalable Fabrication of Height‐Variable Microstructures with a Revised Wetting Model

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 13, July 2025.
Height‐variable microstructures are fabricated using a scalable CO2 laser machining approach, enabling precise control of wettability through structural gradients. Classical wetting models fail to capture height‐induced effects, necessitating a revised theoretical framework.

Numerical study on the influence of riblet yaw-angle on drag reduction rate with different immersion heights

open access: yesResults in Engineering
This paper uses the Large-eddy simulation method to investigate the influence of riblet yaw angle on drag reduction rate with different immersion heights, revealing that the vortex structure is gradually transformed from riblet-tip vortex pairs to ...

Surface drag reduction and flow separation control in pelagic vertebrates, with implications for interpreting scale morphologies in fossil taxa

open access: yes, 2015
Living in water imposes severe constraints on the evolution of the vertebrate body. As a result of these constraints, numerous extant and extinct aquatic vertebrate groups evolved convergent osteological and soft-tissue adaptations.

Microcylinder and Slot Combination for Flow Separation Control Over a Wind Turbine Airfoil

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This study explores a novel passive flow control strategy combining a microcylinder and slot configuration to mitigate flow separation over an S809 wind turbine airfoil under stall conditions at a Reynolds number of 106. Numerical simulations are conducted using the Reynolds‐averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) approach. The primary objectives are to

Investigation of Riblet Geometry and Start Locations of Herringbone Riblets on Pressure Losses in a Linear Cascade at Low Reynolds Numbers

open access: yesJournal of turbomachinery, 2020
In this paper, the effects of an array of herringbone riblets with different riblet geometry (height and spacing) and start locations on the pressure losses in a cascade of diffuser blades are investigated over a range of low Reynolds numbers (0.50 ...
