Enhanced flight performance in non-uniformly flexible wings
Lionel Vincent, Min Zheng, John H. Costello +1
The flexibility of biological propulsors such as wings and fins is believed to contribute to the higher performance of flying and swimming animals compared with their engineered pe…
Fluid dynamics of diving wedges
Lionel Vincent, Tingben Xiao, Daniel Yohann +2
Diving induces large pressures during water entry, accompanied by the creation of cavity and water splash ejected from the free water surface. To minimize impact forces, divers str…
Self-similar impulsive capillary waves on a ligament
Laurent Duchemin, Stéphane Le Dizès, Lionel Vincent +1
We study the short-time dynamics of a liquid ligament, held between two solid cylinders, when one is impulsively accelerated along its axis. A set of one-dimensional equations in t…
