Nonlinear fluid damping of elastically mounted pitching wings in quiescent water
Yuanhang Zhu, Varghese Mathai, Kenneth Breuer
We experimentally study the nonlinear fluid damping of a rigid but elastically mounted pitching wing in the absence of a freestream flow. The dynamics of the elastic mount are simu…
Effects of confinement on the dynamics and correlation scales in active fluids
Yi Fan, Kun-Ta Wu, Ali Aghvami +2
We study the influence of solid boundaries on dynamics and structure of active fluids as the height of the container, , changes. Along the varying dimension, the geometry system…
Wake-foil interactions and energy harvesting efficiency in tandem oscillating foils
Bernardo Luiz R. Ribeiro, Yunxing Su, Quentin Guillaumin +2
Oscillating foils in synchronized pitch/heave motions can be used to harvest hydrokinetic energy. By understanding the wake structure and its correlation with the foil kinematics,…
