Upwind sail aerodynamics: A RANS numerical investigation validated with wind tunnel pressure measurements [PDF]
The aerodynamics of a sailing yacht with different sail trims are presented, derived from simulations performed using computational fluid dynamics. A Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach was used to model sixteen sail trims first tested in a wind ...

Unsteady Fluid Forces Acting on a Disk Simulating a Hand of Swimmer
In the early 1970s, the issue of whether propulsion in swimming is due primarily to lift or drag appeared. Prior to that time it was believed that the best way to propel the body forward was to pull the hand directly backwards to use drag forces. Furthermore, the actual motion of a hand in swimming is obviously unsteady and the time-dependent fluid ...

Study of Unsteady Fluid Forces on a Rotationally Oscillating Circular Cylinder
The characteristics of fluid forces on a rotationally oscillating circular cylinder in a uniform flow are studied experimentally at various forcing frequencies and rotational amplitudes of cylinder oscillation. The measurements are made on the pressure fields around the circular cylinder by using the velocity data measured by PIV in conjunction with ...

We numerically investigate the dynamics of thin disks falling under gravity in a viscous fluid medium at rest at infinity. Varying independently the density and thickness of the disk reveals the influence of the disk aspect ratio which, contrary to ...

Slow motion of a sphere towards a plane through confined non-Newtonian fluid [PDF]
The time needed for the contact of two spheres or a sphere with a rigid plane is mainly controlled by the hydrodynamic drainage of the film located in the gap as long as its thickness is out of range of the Van der Waals interactions.
