Ultrasonic Doppler flow velocity measurements as a co-indicator for the eco-morphological assessment in a residual flow reach

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl, Robin Schroff

It is a complex task to evaluate the effects of a river rehabilitation measure on the riverscape’s habitat mosaic. This study investigated the medium term effects of a rehabilitation measure in a residual flow reach downstream of a hydroelectric dam. The r ...

A bioinspired Separated Flow wing provides turbulence resilience and aerodynamic efficiency for miniature drones

Stefano Mintchev, Matteo Di Luca

Small-scale drones have enough sensing and computing power to find use across a growing number of applications. However, flying in the low-Reynolds number regime remains challenging. High sensitivity to atmospheric turbulence compromises vehicle stability ...

Stall Delay and Leading-Edge Suction for a Pitching Airfoil with Trailing-Edge Flap

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Julien Dominique Claude Deparday, Guosheng He

The flow around a pitching NACA0015 airfoil with an oscillating trailing-edge flap is experimentally investigated to characterize the influence of the flap kinematics on the development of dynamic stall. We specifically focus on the timing of the stall dev ...

Evaluation of a Dynamic Transfer Matrix for a Hydraulic Turbine

François Avellan, Andres Müller, Keita Yamamoto

It is well known that hydraulic machines experience various types of flow instabilities causing a negative influence on the system under off-design operations. The transfer matrix method correlating the flow properties in upstream and downstream of hydraul ...

Continuously-fed gravity currents propagating over a finite porous substrate

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

We present the results of laboratory investigations of continuously-fed density currents that propagate first over a smooth horizontal bed and then over a porous substrate of limited length. Inflow discharge, initial excess density, and substrate porositie ...

Turbulent Flows over Rough Permeable Beds in Mountain Rivers: Experimental Insights and Modeling

Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

Steep mountain streams exhibit shallow waters with roughness elements such as stones and pebbles that are comparable in size to flow depth. Owing to the difficulty in measuring fluid velocities at the interface, i.e., from the rough permeable bed to the fr ...

Flow field in a reservoir subject to pumped-storage operation - in situ measurement and numerical modeling

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Müller

In pumped-storage reservoirs, turbulent kinetic energy input from plant operation can be considerably high. Flow velocities were measured by Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers near the intake/outlet structure to describe flow patterns induced by pumped-sto ...

Viscous growth and rebound of a bubble near a rigid surface

François Gallaire, Giacomo Gallino

Motivated by the dynamics of microbubbles near catalytic surfaces in bubble-powered microrockets, we consider theoretically the growth of a free spherical bubble near a flat no-slip surface in a Stokes flow. The flow at the bubble surface is characterised ...

Application of the Rosenbrock methods to the solution of unsteady 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Michel Deville, Luca Pegolotti, Filippo Menghini

We consider the Rosenbrock methods, namely a family of methods for Differential Algebraic Equations, for the solution of the unsteady three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. These multistage schemes are attractive for non-linear problems because they ac ...

Strategies for faster impregnation in melt thermoplastic resin transfer molding process

Damiano Salvatori

Continuous fiber thermoplastic composites are potential substitutes of steel in structural automotive components, since they combine fiber strength and rigidity with ductility, potential recyclability and low density of the thermoplastic (TP) matrix. Resin ...
