A meshfree method for the Poisson equation with 3D wall-bounded flow application
… In the case of Lagrangian approaches of flow equations, the Poisson equation often needs to be solved on an irregular point distribution. Currently, mainly unstructured mesh-based approaches are used. Meshfree methods present a way to approximate differential operators on unstructured …

Development of a test section featuring a flat plate conditioned for the study of fully developed turbulent boundary layers using PIV
… fully developed turbulent boundary layers in wall-bounded flow, primarily using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The initial section will focus on providing motivation of why it can be of interest to study turbulence. The following section will provide a historical context of the development …

The diode array velocimeter
… by a single hot-wire anemometer in a turbulent wall bounded flow with a freestream velocity of 10 m/s. The prototype DAV was found to be accurate to within 10% of U<sub>e</sub> in mean velocity, and within 1.5% of U<sub>e</sub> in turbulence intensity. The prototype DAV can measure mean …

On the stability of plane viscoelastic shear flows in the limit of infinite Weissenberg and Reynolds numbers
… instability of inviscid parallel shear flows are investigated through a linear stability analysis. We focus on the upper convected Maxwell model in the limit of infinite Weissenberg and Reynolds numbers. Specifically, we study the effects of elasticity on the instability of a few classes …

Spectral modeling of an idealized atmospheric surface layer
… modelling a broad range of turbulent motions in wall-bounded turbulent flows such as the ASL, using spectra of turbulent fluctuations as inputs. Turbulent spectra contain information on turbulent motions across scales, and are constrained by theory and observations. By propagating spectra through …

Compressible turbulence in a high-speed high Reynolds number mixing layer
… was chosen to study turbulence rather than a wall bounded flow due to the experimental fact that the effects of compressibility become significant at lower Mach numbers. The mixing layer was generated by supersonic injection of air (M<sub>s</sub> = 1.8, P<sub>ts</sub> = 0.5 atm. …

Numerical Prediction of Drag Reduction and Interfacial Shapes Over Superhydrophobic Surfaces
… surfaces (SHS) in laminar channel flow. Resolved multiphase simulations using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) methodology are performed to study the effects of groove geometry, interface shear rate, and meniscus penetration independently. The trapped gas is simulated as both flat and …
