Analysis of Ship Airwakes Using Modal Decomposition
… the ship model, with and without the effect of a simulated atmospheric boundary layer (ABL).</p> <p>Spatiotemporal analyses of the TR-PIV measurements were performed using modal decomposition, and the modes were decomposed further based on the frequency contents of their time dynamics. This …

Time-Resolved PIV Measurements of Ship Airwakes with Quartering Winds
… well as cases with and without the effects of a simulated atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). A comparative analysis of the time-averaged flow structures between the quartering wind cases and the pure headwind measurements showed significant differences in the development of the airwake. For both …

Wind tunnel investigation of wind load on a ground mounted photovoltaic tracker
… induced forces and moments were measured in a simulated atmospheric boundary layer flow. The work described herein presents an overview of the study and discusses the obtained main findings. It is concluded that certain combination of the system parameters led to a significant reduction in the …

A Study of Ship Airwakes Using Dual Plane Stereoscopic PIV
… Additionally, the airwake with and without a simulated atmospheric boundary layer (sABL) was studied. The synchronicity of the measurements were taken advantage of to carry out conditional averages of the flow field to isolate and study certain flow events (and its footprint) within the …

Contributions to the Understanding of Ship Airwakes Using Advanced Flow Diagnostic Techniques
… measurements were performed with and without a simulated atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), which included the aerodynamic scaling of its thickness, velocity profile, and turbulence. The ABL was simulated using Cowdrey grid method, which comprises sets of horizontal rods placed in the wind tunnel …
