Energy Transfer Mechanisms in Wake-Modulated Transonic Flutter
Vedasri Godavarthi, Jacob Turner, Jung-Hee Seo +1
Transonic flutter is a detrimental aeroelastic instability that can generate large-amplitude structural oscillations, leading to severe vibration, fatigue damage, reduced operation…
Flow-induced dorso-ventral deformation enhances propulsive efficiency in flexible caudal fins
Sushrut Kumar, Matthew J. McHenry, Jung-Hee Seo +1
Fish swim with flexible fins that stand in stark contrast to the rigid propulsors of engineered vehicles. Using numerical simulations of the dynamics of flow-structure interaction,…
A GPU-Accelerated Sharp Interface Immersed Boundary Solver for Large Scale Flow Simulations
Sushrut Kumar, Joshua Romero, Jung-Hee Seo +2
Immersed boundary methods (IBMs) facilitate the simulation of flows around stationary, moving, and deforming bodies on Cartesian grids. However, extending these simulations to the…
Scaling Laws for Caudal Fin Swimmers Incorporating Hydrodynamics, Kinematics, Morphology, and Scale Effects
Jung Hee Seo, Ji Zhou, Rajat Mittal
Many species of fish, as well as biorobotic underwater vehicles, employ body caudal fin propulsion, in which a wave-like body motion culminates in high-amplitude caudal fin oscilla…
Hydrodynamics of Flapping Foils Undergoing Irregular Motion with Application to Wave-Assisted Propulsion
Harshal S. Raut, Jung-Hee Seo, Rajat Mittal
Flapping foils are widely studied as bioinspired propulsors, yet most investigations have focused on regular, sinusoidal kinematics. In realistic environments, however, irregular m…
Aerodynamics and Aeroacoustics of da Vinci's Aerial Screw
Suryansh Prakhar, Jung-Hee Seo, Rajat Mittal
Leonardo da Vinci's aerial screw, conceived in the 15th century, represents one of the earliest conceptualizations of lift-generating rotary flight. Despite its historical signific…
