We have performed direct numerical simulations for the flow past a streamwise and
transversely rotating sphere at a Reynolds number Re= 500. To investigate the effect of low …

Direct numerical simulations are performed to study the flow regimes at the wake behind a
strongly streamwise rotating sphere, covering the range of rotation parameters, and the …

The uniform flow past a sphere undergoing steady rotation about an axis transverse to the
free stream flow was investigated numerically. The objective was to reveal the effect of …

In this paper, we study the effect of the Reynolds number (Re) on the dynamics and vortex
formation modes of spheres rising or falling freely through a fluid (where Re= 100–15000) …

Laminar flow past a sphere rotating in the transverse direction is numerically investigated in
order to understand the effect of the rotation on the characteristics of flow over the sphere …

This paper studies the flow structures surrounding a transversely rotating sphere for the
previously unreported conditions of flow Reynolds numbers of Re= 100–300 and a rotation …

The wake of a sphere rolling along a wall at low Reynolds number is investigated
numerically and experimentally. Two successive transitions are identified in this flow, as the …

This paper reports the experimental investigations of the wake of a rotating and translating
sphere in the close proximity of a plane wall at moderate Reynolds numbers (Re= 450 …

The flow past a sphere rotating about an axis aligned with the streamwise direction is
numerically investigated. The dynamics is governed by the incompressible Navier–Stokes …

I. Introduction he main objective of this project was to study vortex shedding in the near wake
of rigid axisymmetric bluff bodies having a geometry similar to an inflated, round parachute …
