Boundary vorticity dynamics of two-phase viscous flow

Tao Chen, Tianshu Liu

From the Navier-Stokes-Korteweg (NSK) equations, the exact relations between the fundamental surface physical quantities for two-phase viscous flow with diffuse interface are deriv…

Lamb dilatation and its hydrodynamic viscous flux in near-wall incompressible flows

Tao Chen, Tianshu Liu

In this paper, we introduce a new physical concept referred to as the wall-normal Lamb dilatation flux (WNLDF), which is defined as the wall-normal derivative of the Lamb dilatatio…

A tuned mass amplifier for enhanced haptic feedback

Sai Sharan Injeti, Ali Israr, Tianshu Liu +3

Vibro-tactile feedback is, by far the most common haptic interface in wearable or touchable devices. This feedback can be amplified by controlling the wave propagation characterist…

Magnetically Localizing Heat or Enhancing Equilibration in a Quasi 1D Magnetic Fluid

Jun Huang, Weili Luo, Tianshu Liu

Using two different configurations of temperature and magnetic field gradients, we observed that, in a quasi one-dimensional magnetic fluid, magnetic force either reduces the tempe…

Optical-flow-based background-oriented schlieren technique for measuring a laser-induced underwater shock wave

Keisuke Hayasaka, Yoshiyuki Tagawa, Tianshu Liu +1

The background-oriented schlieren (BOS) technique with the physics-based optical flow method (OF-BOS) is developed for measuring the pressure field of a laser-induced underwater sh…

Indentation of a Rigid Sphere into an Elastic Substrate with Surface Tension and Adhesion

Chung-Yuen Hui, Tianshu Liu, Thomas Salez +2

The surface tension of compliant materials such as gels provides resistance to deformation in addition to and sometimes surpassing that due to elasticity. This article studies how…

Lift Enhancement by Dynamically Changing Wingspan in Forward Flapping Flight

Shizhao Wang, Xing Zhang, Guowei He +1

Stretching and retracting wingspan has been widely observed in the flight of birds and bats, and its effects on the aerodynamic performance particularly lift generation are intrigu…
