FluSI: A novel parallel simulation tool for flapping insect flight using a Fourier method with volume penalization
Thomas Engels, Dmitry Kolomenskiy, Kai Schneider +1
FluSI, a fully parallel open source software for pseudo-spectral simulations of three-dimensional flapping flight in viscous flows, is presented. It is freely available for non-com…
Aerodynamic ground effect in fruitfly sized insect takeoff
Dmitry Kolomenskiy, Masateru Maeda, Thomas Engels +3
Aerodynamic ground effect in flapping-wing insect flight is of importance to comparative morphologies and of interest to the micro-air-vehicle (MAV) community. Recent studies, howe…
Angular multiscale statistics of Lagrangian trajectories in turbulence
Wouter Bos, Benjamin Kadoch, Kai Schneider
The angle between subsequent particle displacement increments is evaluated as a function of the timelag in isotropic turbulence. It is shown that the evolution of this angle contai…
