Flow over riblet curved surfaces

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2011
The present work studies the mechanics of turbulent drag reduction over curved surfaces by riblets. The effects of surface modification on flow separation over steep and smooth curved surfaces are investigated. Four types of two-dimensional surfaces are studied based on the morphometric parameters that describe the body of a blue whale.

Longitudinal and transversal flow over a cavity containing a second immiscible fluid

open access: yes, 2012
An analytical solution for the flow field of a shear flow over a rectangular cavity containing a second immiscible fluid is derived. While flow of a single-phase fluid over a cavity is a standard case investigated in fluid dynamics, flow over a cavity ...

Surrogate Modeling for Active Drag Reduction in Turbulent Boundary Layer Flows Using Multitask Gaussian Process Regression

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 24, Issue 4, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Single‐ and multitask Gaussian process regression (GPR), termed sGPR and mGPR, are investigated as surrogate models to guide the design of actuation parameters for active drag reduction techniques in turbulent boundary layer (TBL) flows.

Energy amplification in channel flow over riblets

open access: yes2011 IEEE International Symposium on Computer-Aided Control System Design (CACSD), 2011
A number of methods of reducing the drag over airfoils have been investigated. This paper considers the use of riblets, which are structures that run parallel to one another that are positioned longitudinally to the flow. It has been shown experimentally that when the shape, spacing and height of the riblets are optimized, the drag coefficient can be ...

Form and function of anguilliform swimming

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2190-2210, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Anguilliform swimmers are long and narrow animals that propel themselves by undulating their bodies. Observations in nature and recent investigations suggest that anguilliform swimming is highly efficient. However, understanding the underlying reasons for the efficiency of this type of locomotion requires interdisciplinary studies spanning ...
