Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Fluid flow through a single fracture is commonly described by the cubic law. However, deviations from this model are expected because natural fracture surfaces are rough and in contact with each other in discrete regions. In this study, the interactions between fracture closure, contact area, and hydraulic characterization of mesoscopic‐scale rough ...

Multi-frequency vortex-induced vibrations of a long tensioned beam in linear and exponential shear flows [PDF]
, 2013 The multi-frequency vortex-induced vibrations of a cylindrical tensioned beam of aspect ratio 200, free to move in the in-line and cross-flow directions within first a linearly and then an exponentially sheared current are investigated by means of direct

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Experiments on a barotropic rotating shear layer. Part 1. Instability and steady vortices [PDF]
, 1999 The barotropic shear layer in a rotating fluid is studied in a laboratory experiment. Through the rotation of circular sections in the base and lid of a circular tank relative to a background rotation of the entire system, a vertical layer of strong ...

Dynamical arrest in active nematic turbulence
Physical Review ResearchActive fluids display spontaneous turbulentlike flows known as active turbulence. Recent work revealed that these flows have universal features, independent of the material properties and of the presence of topological defects.

On bypass transition in separation bubbles: a review
Propulsion and Power Research, 2019 Transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow is of great practical interest as it occurs in many engineering flows and often plays a critical role in aerodynamics and heat transfer performance of those flow devices.
