The Koopman theory, a concept to globally model nonlinear signals by a linear Hamiltonian, has been at the frontier of fluid mechanics research for the last decade. Wind engineering …
This paper discusses the spectral proper orthogonal decomposition and its use in identifying modes, or structures, in flow data. A specific algorithm based on estimating the cross …
We consider the frequency domain form of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), called spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD). Spectral POD is derived from a space …
Four different applications of spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) are demonstrated on large-eddy simulation data of a turbulent jet. These are: low-rank …
Resolvent analysis identifies the most responsive forcings and most receptive states of a dynamical system, in an input–output sense, based on its governing equations. Interest in …
The interaction between various wave-like structures in screeching jets is considered via both experimental measurements and linear stability theory. Velocity snapshots of …
Response modes computed via linear resolvent analysis of a turbulent mean-flow field have been shown to qualitatively capture characteristics of the observed turbulent coherent …
Three amplification mechanisms present in turbulent jets, namely lift-up, Kelvin–Helmholtz and Orr, are characterized via global resolvent analysis and spectral proper orthogonal …
To identify the spatiotemporal coherent structure of compressor tip leakage flow, spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) is performed on the near-tip flow field and the …
