Theory and modelling remain central to improving our understanding of undulatory and
oscillatory swimming. Simple models based on added mass can help to give great insight …

We employ numerical simulation to investigate the hydrodynamics of carangiform
locomotion as the relative magnitude of viscous and inertial forces, ie the Reynolds number …

Thrust performance and wake structure were investigated for a rigid rectangular panel
pitching about its leading edge in a free stream. For ReC= O (104), thrust coefficient was …

Flow visualization is used to interrogate the wake structure produced by a rigid flat panel of
aspect ratio (span/chord) 0.54 pitching in a free stream at a Strouhal number of 0.23. At such …

The effects of trailing edge shape on the vortex dynamics and surface pressure distributions
on pitching foils are examined using direct numerical simulation. Results are presented for a …

This is the second volume of a two-volume guide to designing, conducting and interpreting
laboratory and field experiments in a broad range of topics associated with hydraulic …

We use direct Lyapunov exponents to identify Lagrangian coherent structures (LCSs) in a
bioinspired fluid flow: the wakes of rigid pitching panels with a trapezoidal planform …

The post-stall flow control using compliant flags of varying thickness and length, placed
upstream a NACA0012 airfoil, was shown to be possible at an airfoil chord Reynolds …

Based on the traveling wave motion of fish, this paper introduces a new type of variable
wavelength traveling wave turbine that significantly differs from traditional turbine designs in …

Jet flows induced by pitching cantilever plates provide a power-efficient solution for fluid
acceleration and cooling enhancement. In such applications, the time-averaged (mean) …
