A remeshed vortex method for mixed rigid/soft body fluid–structure interaction
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We outline a 2D algorithm for solving incompressible flow--structure interaction problems for mixed rigid/soft body representations, within a consistent framework based on the remeshed vortex method. ...
Through these illustrations, we showcase the ability of our solver to robustly deal with different constitutive models and boundary conditions, solve disparate multi-physics problems and achieve faster ...

Chaotic mixing and transport in wavy Taylor–Couette flow
2002
Physica D : Non-linear phenomena
The results show how mixing is enhanced with increasing rotating Reynolds number as a consequence of increased stretching and folding that occurs in meridional, latitudinal, and circumferential surfaces ...
The axial particle transport increases with the rotating Reynolds number as a consequence of stretching and folding within the vortices and the axial transport between vortices, both related to the waviness ...
In order to validate the particle tracking code, particles were tracked in a mathematically generated velocity field that was mapped on to a three-dimensional polar grid with spacing similar to the experimental ...

The flow-induced vibration of an elliptical cross-section at varying angles of attack
2018
Journal of Fluids and Structures
This aspect ratio is large enough so that the deformation from a circular cylinder is obvious, but not so large that the geometry is not related to the cylinder. ...
However, for large angles, where the body is far from symmetric with respect to the wake centreline, the flow can be markedly different with distinct asymmetric modes, including one which is period-doubled ...

On the Mechanism of Large Amplitude Flapping of Inverted Foil in a Uniform Flow
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
An elastic foil interacting with a uniform flow with its trailing edge clamped, also known as the inverted foil, exhibits a wide range of complex self-induced flapping regimes such as large amplitude flapping ...
Due to the absence of vortex shedding process in the low-Re regime, the inverted foil no longer exhibits the periodic flapping. ...
The LAF of inverted foil with a splitter closely resemble the VIV of an elastically mounted circular cylinder. ...

Shape from depth discontinuities under orthographic projection
2009
2009 IEEE 12th International Conference on Computer Vision Workshops, ICCV Workshops
We present a new method for reconstructing the 3-D surface of an opaque object from the motion of its depth discontinuities, when viewed under orthographic projection as the object undergoes rigid rotation ...
A novel shape completion scheme is introduced to fill in gaps in the recovered surface, which would otherwise be impossible to reconstruct from the motion of the depth discontinuities alone. ...
For this model, consider the case of a cylinder of radius r separated from the rotation axis by a distance R (with its symmetry axis parallel to the rotation axis). ...

Synopsis The Doi-Edwards model is simulated in startup of two-dimensional complex flow. The flow geometry is that of a cylinder confined between two parallel plates. ...
The second method is a new method which is introduced in this paper. We refer to this approach as the deformation field method. Theoretically the methods are equivalent. ...
