A sensitivity analysis of highly-resolved large-eddy simulations of the flow around a 5: 1
rectangular cylinder to the introduction of a small rounding of the upstream edges is …

In the present world, passive control finds application in various areas like flow over blunt
projectiles, missiles, supersonic parallel diffusers (for cruise correction), the engine of jets …

Driven by the abundant data generated from computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
simulations, machine learning (ML) methods surpass the deterministic criteria on flow …

Flow separation control has a wide application prospect in drag reduction for industry. This
paper numerically studies the effect of microstructures on flow separation and drag …

Abstract Pulsating Heat Pipes are two phase passive heat transfer devices characterized by
a thermally induced two phase oscillating flow. The correct detection of the dominant …

The standard Ahmed body (SAB) with a rectangular rear end is a simplified, canonical bluff
body geometry that shares similarities with generic road vehicles. It is known to produce flow …

We experimentally study the unsteady forcing of the turbulent wake of a three-dimensional
blunt body for drag reduction purposes. The forcing is provided by pulsed jets coupled to …

We experimentally investigate the high-Reynolds flow around a rectangular cylinder of
aspect ratio 5: 1. This configuration is the object of the international BARC benchmark. Wind …

A novel surface morphology for pipelines using transverse microgrooves was proposed in
order to reduce the pressure loss of fluid transport. Numerical simulation and experimental …

An extensive experimental campaign has been carried out in a multiple-fan wind tunnel to
study the effects of flow acceleration on a sectional model of a sharp-edged square cylinder …
