The Influence of the Inter-Relationship of Leg Position and Riding Posture on Cycling Aerodynamics
Aerodynamics is an important factor affecting cyclist performance, as at the elite level 90% of rider energy is used to overcome aerodynamic drag. As such, much effort has been channeled into understanding the detailed flow around cyclists, since small ...

The Effects of the Width of an Isolated Valley on Near-Surface Turbulence
With the aim of ascertaining the effects of the widths (A) of valleys on near-surface turbulence, flows over an isolated symmetric three-dimensional valley of constant depth (H) and slopes are characterized in a large-boundary-layer wind tunnel. Starting

Universality of mean velocity profile in high Re-number turbulent boundary layer
To better understand high Reynolds number zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers detailed hot-wire measurements of the mean and fluctuating streamwise velocity are made in RTRI ’s low-noise wind tunnel in Maibara Japan.

Unsteady loads on circular cylinder in cross-flow: an observation in natural wind and comparison with wind tunnel experiments [PDF]
We present the synchronized unsteady wall pressure measurements performed at the circumference of a full scale 35 m circular chimney submitted to natural wind. The atmospheric turbulent boundary layer generates a turbulence intensity of 15 % at the altitude of the measurements and the corresponding Reynolds number is 1.13 106.

Dynamical influence of MJO phases on the onset of Indian monsoon
There is a need to understand the onset of monsoon dynamics as the date of onset of monsoon (DOM) is an important parameter in framing all the policy for the imminent season like crop choice, sowing schedule, disaster management, power distribution etc ...
