Piezoelectric micro-jet devices (PMJDs), also known as piezoelectric inkjet printing, are
used to distribute the functional materials to form single or complex microstructures on a …

The plasma synthetic jet actuator (PSJA), also named as sparkjet actuator, is a special type
of zero-net mass flux actuator, driven thermodynamically by pulsed arc/spark discharge …

This study focuses on the combined effect of the nozzle-to-plate distance and of the stroke
length on the cooling performances of impinging synthetic jets. Infrared thermography is …

Jet propulsion is the main method of locomotion developed by cephalopods to swim through
water, either for hunting or escaping from predators. Under this inspiration, diverse …

In the last decades, Synthetic jet actuators have gained much interest among the flow control
techniques due to their short response time, high jet velocity and absence of traditional …

A predictive approach for the Synthetic Jet (SJ) formation, which couples formation criteria
already available from the literature, with outcome to Lumped Element Modeling (LEM) …

Abstract Direct Numerical Simulations of synthetic jet flow fields issuing in a quiescent
environment, performed by means of two extensively used open-source computational fluid …

Synthetic jet pump is a potential technique to improve the pumping performance by
introducing a smart structure which can enhance counter-rotating vortexes. Aligning with this …

A modeling approach was developed that combines lumped-element and finite element
methods for analysis of synthetic jet actuator (SJA) geometries that deviate significantly from …

In many studies concerning synthetic jet flow fields the analysis is usually restricted to simple
configurations, such as a single diaphragm oscillating in a cylindrical cavity, which is linked …
