Resolution and Boundary Placement Effects on Discontinuous Galerkin Simulations of Counter-rotating Vortex Interaction in a Confined Domain 

Reitz, Rachel (2013-11-08)
The wakes of fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft present some of the most complex and challenging problems for numerical simulation, as fully capturing the interaction of the various vortices and coherent structures requires ...

Single Camera 3D Measurement of a Shock Wave-Turbulent Boundary Layer Interaction 

Bolton, Johnathan (2017-04-21)
This paper explores the 3D structure of an unswept fin generated shock wave-turbulent boundary layer interaction (SBLI). A Mach 2 flow encounters an unswept fin at an angle of attack of 15 degrees which causes an inviscid, ...

A Study of the Nonlinear Acoustic Response of Area-contractions and Sense-lines 

Teasley, Thomas (2017-12-08)
Rocket and gas turbine engine combustion instabilities, which lead to rapid engine failure through enhanced heat transfer rates and high-cycle fatigue, continue to be a serious concern for engineers. Experimental pressure ...

Surface Reconstruction Based on Plenoptic Image with Convolution-Based Iterative Algorithm 

Fu, Yimin (2017-04-30)
Plenoptic imaging is a revolutionary photographic technique which has been brought to public awareness recently. It makes post-refocusing possible by capturing both spatial and directional information of light. In order ...

Three Dimensional Flow Visualization of the Adverse Pressure Gradient Turbulent Boundary Layer 

Melnick, Michael (2015-05-07)
An adverse pressure gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer is investigated using a three dimensional scanning flow visualization technique. This dissertation includes an introduction to the structures and past research ...

Three-Dimensional Velocity Measurements in the Wake of a Hemispherical Roughness Element Using Plenoptic Particle Image Velocimetry 

Johnson, Kyle (2016-08-01)
Plenoptic particle image velocimetry (PIV) was used to perform instantaneous three-dimensional (3D) velocity measurements in the near-wake of a wall-mounted hemispherical roughness element at a Reynolds number (based on ...

Tomographic Plenoptic Background Oriented Schlieren Imaging 

Davis, Jenna (2020-12-10)
Within the last decade, tomographic background oriented schlieren has become an advanced flow diagnostic used to reconstruct three-dimensional density and/or refractive index fields. These three-dimensional measurements ...

Vortex Topology of a Pitching and Rolling Wing in Forward Flight 

Johnson, Kyle (2019-12-09)
Vortex topology is analyzed from measurements of flow over a flat, rectangular plate with an aspect ratio of 2 which was articulated in pitch and roll, individually and simultaneously. The plate was immersed into a Re = ...

Yaw-Roll Coupled Oscillations of a Slender Delta Wing 

Worley, John (2008-08-15)
The delta wing has been a highly studied aerial planform, from counter rotating vortices to a rolling `wing rock' motion. The research done at Auburn University is an extension of those studies. This research studies not ...
