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…
FLUPS: a Fourier-based Library of Unbounded Poisson Solvers
Denis-Gabriel Caprace, Thomas Gillis, Philippe Chatelain
A Fourier-based Library of Unbounded Poisson Solvers (FLUPS) for 2D and 3D homogeneous distributed grids is presented. It is designed to handle every possible combination of period…
Simulations of propelling and energy harvesting articulated bodies via vortex particle-mesh methods
Caroline Bernier, Mattia Gazzola, Renaud Ronsse +1
The emergence and understanding of new design paradigms that exploit flow induced mechanical instabilities for propulsion or energy harvesting demands robust and accurate flow stru…
-Leaping: An adaptive, accelerated stochastic simulation algorithm, bridging -leaping and -leaping
Jana Lipková, Georgios Arampatzis, Philippe Chatelain +2
We propose the -leaping algorithm for the acceleration of Gillespie's stochastic simulation algorithm that combines the advantages of the two main accelerated methods; the -l…
