The structure of Kármán vortex streets in the atmospheric boundary layer derived from large eddy simulation

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2012
Kármán vortex streets generated in the wake of an idealized island are studied using large eddy simulation (LES). Simulations were carried out under conditions of a dry convective boundary layer, capped by an inversion below the island top.

Influence of Urban Road Green Belts on Pedestrian-Level Wind in Height-Asymmetric Street Canyons

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
This study was conducted to examine the effect on airflow of the shape of an urban road green belt in an asymmetrical street canyon. In this paper, the airflow field at pedestrian height in an asymmetrical street with different building height ratios ...

A model for the symmetry breaking of the reverse Benard-von Karman vortex street produced by a flapping foil

open access: yes, 2008
The vortex streets produced by a flapping foil of span-to-chord aspect ratio of 4:1 are studied in a hydrodynamic tunnel experiment. In particular, the mechanisms giving rise to the symmetry breaking of the reverse B\'enard-von K\'arm\'an vortex street ...

Influence of attack angle on vortex-induced vibration and energy harvesting of two cylinders in side-by-side arrangement

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
The vortex-induced vibration and energy harvesting of two cylinders in side-by-side arrangement with different attack angles are numerically investigated using two-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes simulations.

Optimal Strouhal number for swimming animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
To evaluate the swimming performances of aquatic animals, an important dimensionless quantity is the Strouhal number, St = fA/U, with f the tail-beat frequency, A the peak-to-peak tail amplitude, and U the swimming velocity.

Mechanism of aerodynamic force generation concerning train vibration in tunnel (LES of large-scale flow structure around simplified train model)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2020
To clarify the mechanisms underlying airflow-induced vibrations of high-speed trains running through tunnels, large-eddy simulation of a large-scale flow structure around a simplified 6-car train model was conducted.

On the Evolution of Thermonuclear Flames on Large Scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The thermonuclear explosion of a massive white dwarf in a Type Ia supernova explosion is characterized by vastly disparate spatial and temporal scales. The extreme dynamic range inherent to the problem prevents the use of direct numerical simulation and ...

Terahertz Channel Modeling, Estimation and Localization in RIS‐Assisted Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces have become a recent intensive research focus. Based on practical applications, channel strategies for RIS‐assisted terahertz wireless communication systems are categorized into three different types: channel modeling, channel estimation, and channel localization.

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.
