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…
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…
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…
Vortex Ring Reconnections
Philippe Chatelain, Demosthenes Kivotides, Anthony Leonard
We investigate numerically the Navier-Stokes dynamics of reconnecting vortex rings at small number. We find that reconnections are dissipative due to the smoothing of vorticit…
