Adjoint methods as design tools in thermoacoustics

L Magri - Applied Mechanics Reviews, 2019 - asmedigitalcollection.asme.org
In a thermoacoustic system, such as a flame in a combustor, heat release oscillations couple
with acoustic pressure oscillations. If the heat release is sufficiently in phase with the …

Triglobal resolvent analysis of swept-wing wakes

JHM Ribeiro, CA Yeh, K Taira - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
Through triglobal resolvent analysis, we reveal the effects of wing tip and sweep angle on
laminar separated wakes over swept wings. For the present study, we consider wings with …

Wing sweep effects on laminar separated flows

JHM Ribeiro, CA Yeh, K Zhang, K Taira - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - cambridge.org
