Confronting Grand Challenges in Environmental Fluid Mechanics

T. Dauxois, T. Peacock, P. Bauer +10

Environmental fluid mechanics underlies a wealth of natural, industrial and, by extension, societal challenges. In the coming decades, as we strive towards a more sustainable plane…

Search and rescue at sea aided by hidden flow structures

Mattia Serra, Pratik Sathe, Irina Rypina +6

Every year hundreds of people die at sea because of vessel and airplane accidents. A key challenge in reducing the number of these fatalities is to make Search and Rescue (SAR) alg…

Ground truth force distribution for learning-based tactile sensing: a finite element approach

Carmelo Sferrazza, Adam Wahlsten, Camill Trueeb +1

Skin-like tactile sensors provide robots with rich feedback related to the force distribution applied to their soft surface. The complexity of interpreting raw tactile information…

Explicit Unsteady Navier-Stokes Solutions and their Analysis via Local Vortex Criteria

Tiemo Pedergnana, David Oettinger, Gabriel Provencher-Langlois +1

We construct a class of spatially polynomial velocity fields that are exact solutions of the planar unsteady Navier-Stokes equation. These solutions can be used as simple benchmark…

How do Conservative Backbone Curves Perturb into Forced Responses? A Melnikov Function Analysis

Mattia Cenedese, George Haller

Weakly damped mechanical systems under small periodic forcing tend to exhibit periodic response in a close vicinity of certain periodic orbits of their conservative limit. Specific…

Non-Existence of Periodic Orbits for Forced-Damped Potential Systems in Bounded Domains

Florian Kogelbauer

We prove Lr-estimates on periodic solutions of periodically-forced, linearly-damped mechanical systems with polynomially-bounded potentials. The estimates are applied to obtain a n…

Explicit Third-Order Model Reduction Formulas for General Nonlinear Mechanical Systems

Zsolt Veraszto, Sten Ponsioen, George Haller

For general nonlinear mechanical systems, we derive closed-form, reduced-order models up to cubic order based on rigorous invariant manifold results. For conservative systems, the…

Model Order Reduction for Temperature-Dependent Nonlinear Mechanical Systems: A Multiple Scales Approach

Shobhit Jain, Paolo Tiso

The thermal dynamics in thermo-mechanical systems exhibits a much slower time scale compared to the structural dynamics. In this work, we use the method of multiple scales to reduc…

Barriers to the Transport of Diffusive Scalars in Compressible Flows

George Haller, Daniel Karrasch, Florian Kogelbauer

Our recent work identifies material surfaces in incompressible flows that extremize the transport of an arbitrary, weakly diffusive scalar field relative to neighboring surfaces. S…

Lagrangian coherent structures and entrainment near the turbulent/non-turbulent interface of a gravity current

M. M. Neamtu-Halic, D. Krug, G. Haller +1

In this paper, we employ Lagrangian coherent structures (LCSs) theory for the three dimensional vortex eduction and investigate the effect of large-scale vortical structures on the…
