On the Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a diffuse interface

Marildo Kola, Daniel Israel, Aaron Towne

We present a formulation for the linear stability of the miscible Rayleigh-Taylor instability, retaining viscosity, Fickian mass diffusion, and non-Boussinesq effects. Rather than…

Resolvent-based estimation of a turbulent wake

Junoh Jung, Aaron Towne

We present a resolvent-based framework for estimating turbulent velocity fluctuations in the wake of a spanwise-periodic NACA0012 airfoil at Mach 0.3, Reynolds number 23,000, and a…

Resolvent-based estimation and control of a laminar airfoil wake

Junoh Jung, Rutvij Bhagwat, Aaron Towne

We develop an optimal resolvent-based estimator and controller to predict and attenuate unsteady vortex shedding fluctuations in the laminar wake of a NACA 0012 airfoil at an angle…

Efficient harmonic resolvent analysis via time-stepping

Ali Farghadan, Junoh Jung, Rutvij Bhagwat +1

We present an extension of the RSVD- algorithm initially developed for resolvent analysis of statistically stationary flows to handle harmonic resolvent analysis of time-period…

Scalable resolvent analysis for three-dimensional flows

Ali Farghadan, Eduardo Martini, Aaron Towne

Resolvent analysis is a powerful tool for studying coherent structures in turbulent flows. However, its application beyond canonical flows with symmetries that can be used to simpl…

Ambiguity in mean-flow-based linear analysis

U. Karban, B. Bugeat, E. Martini +6

Linearisation of the Navier-Stokes equations about the mean of a turbulent flow forms the foundation of popular models for energy amplification and coherent structures, including r…
