This review identifies and discusses measurement technology gaps that are currently
preventing major science leaps from being realized in the study of urban environmental …

Due to limitations in available sensor technology, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) lack an
active sensing capability to measure turbulence, gusts, or other unsteady aerodynamic …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are finding use in applications that place increasing
emphasis on robustness to external disturbances including extreme wind. However …

To control and navigate micro air vehicles (MAVs) efficiently, there is a need for small,
lightweight, durable, sensitive, fast, and low-power airspeed sensors. When designing …

Determination of airflow rates is an inevitable part of the energy-efficient control of ventilation
systems. To achieve efficient control, the flowmeters used must be suitably accurate and …

A novel method of obtaining two orthogonal velocity components with high spatial and
temporal resolution is investigated. Both components are obtained utilizing a single sensing …

Disclosed is an apparatus for measuring velocity of a fluid stream via deflection of a wire
filament. Also disclosed is a process for measuring velocity of a fluid stream, requiring …

ABSTRACT A novel velocity sensor has been developed and characterized for use in
turbulent flows. The new strain-based sensor uses a freestanding nano-ribbon exposed to …

Surface textures and protrusions can be used to control or gain information about a flow. We
investigate the solid-flow interaction of filamentous structures and liquid-infused surfaces …
