Beyond classical similitude: group theoretic extrapolation of hypersonic stagnation-point boundary layers

Shujaut H. Bader, Daniel J. Bodony

Motivated by the need to extrapolate the results from ground-based experiments to the conditions of high-speed flight, we present the Lie equivalence symmetry analysis of the hyper…

GasNiTROM: Model Reduction via Non-Intrusive Optimization of Oblique Projection Operators and Guaranteed-Stable Latent-Space Dynamics

Cole J. Errico, Alberto Padovan, Daniel J. Bodony

Non-intrusive reduced-order modeling techniques are necessary for systems that are simulated using black-box solvers or known only from data. For systems exhibiting large transient…

Surface instabilities in laminar compressible boundary layers with sublimation

Blaine Vollmer, Alberto Padovan, Daniel J. Bodony

Surface patterns on ablating materials are observed in high-speed ground and flight tests, but the mechanisms behind their formation are not known. In this paper, the origin of sur…

Petrov-Galerkin model reduction for collisional-radiative argon plasma

Ivan Zanardi, Alessandro Meini, Alberto Padovan +2

High-fidelity simulation of nonequilibrium plasmas -- crucial to applications in electric propulsion, hypersonic re-entry, and astrophysical flows -- requires state-specific collis…
