We compare encoder–decoder, U-Net, generative adversarial network (GAN), and diffusion model approaches, and assess the statistical properties of the generated particle number density fields. We find that the GANs are superior in predicting clusters and voids, and therefore result in the best performance. Additionally, we explore a concept of “supersampling”, where neural networks can be used to predict full particle data using only the information of few particles, which yields promising perspectives for reducing the computational cost of expensive DNS computations by avoiding the tracking of millions of particles. We also explore the inverse problem of synthesizing the absolute values of the vorticity fields using the particle number density distribution as the input at different Stokes numbers.

However, significant knowledge gaps need to be bridged before biologically inspired propulsion is able to operate at competitive performances in a practical setting. One of these relates to the design of structures that can leverage passive deformation and active morphing in order to achieve optimal hydrodynamic performance. To provide insights into the performance improvements associated with passive and active fin deformations, we provide here a systematic numerical investigation in the thrust, power, and efficiency of 2D heaving and pitching fins with imposed curvature variations. The results show that for a given chordline kinematics, the use of curvature can improve thrust by 70% or efficiency by 35% over a rigid fin. Maximum thrust is achieved when the camber variations are synchronized with the maximum heave velocity, increasing the overall magnitude of the force vector while increasing efficiency as well. Maximum efficiency is achieved when camber is applied during the first half of the stroke, tilting the force vector to create thrust earlier in the cycle than a comparable rigid fin. Overall, our results demonstrate that curving fins are consistently able to significantly outperform rigid fins with the same chord line kinematics on both thrust and hydrodynamic efficiency.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":795,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics","volume":"38 6","pages":"863 - 877"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00162-024-00714-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141944304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The new approach is applied to linearized anelastic and compressible systems of governing equations for gravity waves including molecular viscosity and thermal diffusion. The ability to remove unwanted terms from the dispersion-relation polynomial is crucial for solving the governing equations when realistic background parameters, such as horizontal velocity and temperature, with strong vertical gradients, are included. With the unwanted terms removed, previously studied dispersion-relation polynomials, for which methods for defining upgoing and downgoing vertical wavenumber roots already exist, are obtained. The new methods are applied to a comprehensive set of medium-scale time-wavepacket examples, with realistic background parameters, lower boundary conditions at 30 km altitude, and modeled wavefields extending up to 500 km altitude. Results from the compressible and anelastic model versions are compared, with compressible governing-equation solutions understood as the more physically accurate of the two. The new methods provide significantly less computationally expensive alternatives to nonlinear time-step methods, which makes them useful for comprehensive studies of the behavior of viscous/diffusive gravity waves and also for large studies of cases based on observational data. Additionally, they generalize previously existing Fourier methods that have been applied to inviscid problems while providing a theoretical framework for the study of viscous/diffusive gravity waves.</p><h3>Graphic abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":795,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics","volume":"38 4","pages":"479 - 509"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00162-024-00709-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141645283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, we consider an incompressible Navier–Stokes fluid with pressure dependent viscosity flowing in: (i) a two-dimensional non-symmetric planar channel; (ii) a three-dimensional axisymmetric non-straight conduit. For both cases we impose the Navier slip boundary conditions that can be reduced to the classical no-slip condition for a proper choice of the slip parameter. We assume that the dependence of the viscosity on the pressure is of exponential type (Barus law), even though the model can be replaced by any other viscosity function. We write the mathematical problem (stress based formulation) and discretize the governing equations through a spectral collocation scheme. The advantage of this numerical procedure, which to the authors’ knowledge has never been used before for this class of fluids, lies in in the ease of implementation and in the accuracy of the solution. To validate our model we compare the numerical solution with the one that can be obtained in the case of small aspect ratio, i.e., the leading order lubrication solution. We perform some numerical simulation to investigate the effects of the pressure-dependent viscosity on the flow. We consider different wall functions to gain insight also on the role played by the channel/duct geometry. In both cases (i), (ii) we find that the increase of the coefficient appearing in the viscosity function results in a global reduction of the flow, as physically expected.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":795,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics","volume":"38 6","pages":"879 - 900"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00162-024-00713-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141611767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three inlet Mach numbers, 1.85, 2.00, and 2.15 are considered at a chord-based Reynolds number 395,000. The curved walls of the airfoils impact the SBLIs due to the state of the incoming boundary layers and local pressure gradients. On the suction side, due to the convex wall, the boundary layer entering the SBLI evolves under a favorable pressure gradient and bulk dilatation. On the other hand, the concave wall on the pressure side imposes an adverse pressure gradient and bulk compression. Variations in the inlet Mach number induce different shock impingement locations, enhancing these effects. A detailed characterization of the suction side boundary layers indicates that a higher Mach number leads to larger shape factors, favoring separation and larger bubbles, while the reverse holds for the pressure side. A time-frequency analysis reveals the presence of intermittent events in the separated flow occurring predominantly at low-frequencies on the suction side and at mid-frequencies on the pressure side. Increasing the inlet Mach number leads to an increase in the time scales of the intermittent events on the suction side, which are associated with instants when high-speed streaks penetrate the bubble, causing local flow reattachment and bubble contractions. Instantaneous flow visualizations show the presence of streamwise vortices developing on the turbulent boundary layers on both airfoil sides and along the bubbles. These vortices influence the formation of the large-scale longitudinal structures in the boundary layers, affecting the mass imbalance inside the separation bubbles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":795,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics","volume":"38 4","pages":"451 - 478"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141611774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sharp peak resolution at tonal frequencies is achieved by locally minimizing bias of the spectrum. Smooth spectrum estimates of broadband regions are achieved by locally reducing variance of the spectrum. The method utilizes multitaper estimation with sine tapers. An iterative criterion based on modal convergence is introduced to enable the SPOD to adapt to spectral features. For tonal flows, the adaptivity is controlled by a single user input; for broadband flows, a constant number of sine tapers is recommended without adaptivity. The discrete version of Parseval’s theorem for SPOD is stated. Proper normalization of the tapers ensures that Parseval’s theorem is satisfied in expectation. Drastic savings in computational complexity and memory usage are facilitated by two aspects: (i) sine tapers, which permit <i>post hoc</i> windowing of a single Fourier transform; and (ii) time-domain lossless compression using a QR or eigenvalue decomposition. Sine-taper SPOD is demonstrated on time-resolved particle image velocimetry (TR-PIV) data from an open cavity flow (Zhang et al. in Exp Fluids 61(226):1–12, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00348-020-03057-8, 2020) and high-fidelity large-eddy simulation (LES) data from a round jet (Brès et al. in J.

For the tonal cavity flow, the adaptive algorithm outperforms Slepian-based multitaper SPOD in terms of variance and local bias of the spectrum, mode convergence, and memory usage. The tonal frequencies associated with the Rossiter instability are accurately identified. For both the tonal cavity and the broadband jet flows, results comparable to or better than those from standard SPOD based on Welch’s overlapped segment averaging are obtained with up to 75% fewer snapshots, including similar convergence of the Rossiter modes and Kelvin-Helmholtz wavepacket structures for the cavity and jet examples, respectively.
