Cavitation often causes a destructive impact on the performance of hydraulic machinery,
such as erosive wear, noise and vibrations of the framework and moving parts of marine …

The cloud cavitation phenomenon has destructive effects on high-speed hydraulic
machinery. It is vital to develop effective methods to control cloud cavitation. In this study, the …

Unsteady cloud cavitation phenomenon is an important subject due to its undesirable effects
in various applications such as ship propeller, rudder and hydraulic machinery systems. We …

A novel Bump-integrated three-dimensional internal waverider inlet (IWI) design method is
presented for high-speed inlet/forebody integration. The low-kinetic-energy (boundary layer) …

The effect of low-speed, circular synthetic jets (SJ) on the turbulent transition of a laminar
boundary layer is studied through direct numerical simulations. The SJ capability in fixating …

Flow through mechanical aortic valves (MAVs) has been constantly associated to higher
haemolysis and platelet activation levels with respect to native valves, due to non …

Well resolved large-eddy simulation data are used to study the physical modulation effects
of miniature vortex generators (MVGs) in a moderate Reynolds number zero pressure …

The transition to turbulence induced by counter-rotating wall-normal rotating cylindrical
roughness pairs immersed within a laminar boundary layer on a flat plate is investigated …

This article puts forward a novel idea which can be used to control the turbulent coherent
structures and make the turbulence more steady by using a “wake blocking wall”. The “wake …

Recently, plasma actuators have been employed to control laminar-to-turbulent transition in
Blasius flow by exciting counter-rotating longitudinal vortices. Due to the resulting …
