In this review, we present control methods for flow over a bluff body such as a circular cylinder, a 2D bluff body with a blunt trailing edge, and a sphere. We introduce recent major achievements in bluff-body flow controls such as 3D forcing, active feedback control, control based on local and global instability, and control with a synthetic jet. We then classify the controls as boundary-layer controls and direct-wake modifications and discuss important features associated with these controls.

Resolution requirements for large eddy simulation (LES), estimated by Chapman [AIAA J. 17, 1293 (1979)], are modified using accurate formulae for high Reynolds number boundary layer flow. The new estimates indicate that the number of grid points (N) required for wall-modeled LES is proportional to ReLx, but a wall-resolving LES requires ÑReLx13/7, where Lx is the flat-plate length in the streamwise direction. On the other hand, direct numerical simulation, resolving the Kolmogorov length scale,

The objective of this study is to explore concepts for active control of turbulent boundary layers leading to skin-friction reduction using the direct numerical simulation technique. Significant drag reduction is achieved when the surface boundary condition is modified to suppress the dynamically significant coherent structures present in the wall region. The drag reduction is accompanied by significant reduction in the intensity of the wall-layer structures and reductions in the magnitude of Re

Direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows over riblet-mounted surfaces are performed to educe the mechanism of drag reduction by riblets. The computed drag on the riblet surfaces is in good agreement with the existing experimental data. The mean-velocity profiles show upward and downward shifts in the log–law for drag-decreasing and drag-increasing cases, respectively. Turbulence statistics above the riblets are computed and compared with those above a flat plate. Differences in the mean-v

Mathematical methods of control theory are applied to the problem of control of fluid flow with the long-range objective of developing effective methods for the control of turbulent flows. The procedure of how to cast the problem of controlling turbulence into a problem in optimal control theory is presented using model problems through the formalism and language of control theory. Then we present a suboptimal control and feedback procedure for general stationary and time-dependent problems usin

A database obtained by direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow was used to compute the three-dimensional frequency/wave-number spectrum of wall-pressure fluctuations. The spectrum was used to deduce scaling laws for pressure fluctuations and to evaluate the similarity form for the power spectrum. The convection velocity as a function of frequency, wave number, and spatial and temporal separations was calculated and compared with the experimental data. The problem of artificial ‘‘ac

We present an overview of the aerodynamics of heavy vehicles, such as tractor-trailers, high-speed trains, and buses. We introduce three-dimensional flow structures around simplified model vehicles and heavy vehicles and discuss the flow-control devices used for drag reduction. Finally, we suggest important unsteady flow structures to investigate for the enhancement of aerodynamic performance and future directions for experimental and numerical approaches.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the progressive collapse-resisting capacity of reinforced concrete beam–column sub-assemblages designed with and without seismic load. The two-span sub-assemblages were designed as part of five- and eight-storey reinforced concrete moment-resisting frames. The exterior columns of the right-hand girders were designed to be 1·5 times larger in size than the middle columns to take into account continuation of the girder. A monotonically increasing load wa

Abstract

In the present study, the effects of the jet inflow conditions such as the initial momentum thickness (θ) and background disturbances on the downstream evolution of a circular jet are investigated using large eddy simulation (LES). We consider four different initial momentum thicknesses, D /θ = 50, 80, 120 and 180, and three different Reynolds numbers, Re D = U J D /ν = 3600, 10 4 and 10 5 , where U J is the jet inflow velocity and D is the jet diameter. The present study shows that the jet char

Spectral energy transfer in a turbulent channel flow is investigated at Reynolds number $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}}\simeq 1700$ , based on the wall shear velocity and channel half-height, with a particular emphasis on full visualization of triadic wave interactions involved in turbulent transport. As in previous studies, turbulent production is found to be almost uniform, especially over the logarithmic region, and the related spanwise integral length scale is approximately proportional to the
