An immersed interface method for the 2D vorticity-velocity Navier-Stokes equations with multiple bodies

James Gabbard, Thomas Gillis, Philippe Chatelain +1

We present an immersed interface method for the vorticity-velocity form of the 2D Navier Stokes equations that directly addresses challenges posed by multiply connected domains, no…

String stability of energy-saving aircraft formations

James R. Riehl, Esteban A. L. Hufstedler, Philippe Chatelain +1

Groups of aircraft have the potential to save significant amounts of energy by flying in formations; all but the leading aircraft can benefit from the upwash of the wakes of preced…

Stability and sensitivity analysis of bird flapping flight

Gianmarco Ducci, Victor Colognesi, Gennaro Vitucci +2

This paper investigates stability analysis of flapping flight. Due to time-varying aerodynamic forces, such systems do not display fixed points of equilibrium. The problem is there…
