An investigation of optimal feedback controllers performance and robustness is carried out for vortex shedding behind a 2D cylinder at low Reynolds numbers. To facilitate controller design, we present an efficient modelling approach in which we utilise the resolvent operator to recast the linearised Navier-Stokes equations into an input-output form from which frequency responses can be computed. The difficulty of applying modern control design techniques to complex, high-dimensional flow systems is thus overcome by using low-order models identified from these frequency responses. The low-order models are used to design optimal control laws using $mathcal{H}_{infty}$ loop shaping. Two distinct control arrangements are considered, both of which employ a single-input and a single-output. In the first control arrangement, a velocity sensor located in the wake drives a pair of body forces near the cylinder. Complete suppression of shedding is observed up to a Reynolds number of $Re=110$. Due to the convective nature of vortex shedding and the corresponding time delays, we observe a fundamental trade-off: the sensor should be close enough to the cylinder to avoid any excessive time lag, but it should be kept sufficiently far from the cylinder to measure any unstable modes developing downstream. It is found that these two conflicting requirements become more difficult to satisfy for larger Reynolds numbers. In the second control arrangement, we consider a practical setup with a body-mounted force sensor and an actuator that oscillates the cylinder according to the lift measurement. It is shown that the system is stabilised only up to $Re=100$, and we demonstrate why the performance of the resulting feedback controllers deteriorates much more rapidly with increasing Reynolds number. The challenges of designing robust controllers for each control setup are also analysed and discussed.

We consider linear feedback control of the two-dimensional flow past a cylinder at low Reynolds numbers, with a particular focus on the optimal placement of a single sensor and a single actuator. To accommodate the high dimensionality of the flow we compute its leading resolvent forcing and response modes to enable the design of H2-optimal estimators and controllers. We then investigate three control problems: i) optimal estimation (OE) in which we measure the flow at a single location and estimate the entire flow; ii) full-state information control (FIC) in which we measure the entire flow but actuate at only one location; and iii) the overall feedback control problem in which a single sensor is available for measurement and a single actuator is available for control. We characterize the performance of these control arrangements over a range of sensor and actuator placements and discuss implications for effective feedback control when using a single sensor and a single actuator. The optimal sensor and actuator placements found for the OE and FIC problems are also compared to those found for the overall feedback control problem over a range of Reynolds numbers. This comparison reveals the key factors and conflicting trade-offs that limit feedback control performance.

Coherent turbulent wave-packet structures in a jet at Reynolds number 460000 and Mach number 0.4 are extracted from experimental measurements and are modeled as linear fluctuations around the mean flow. The linear model is based on harmonic optimal f orcing structures and their associated flow response at individual Strouhal numbers, obtained from analysis of the global linear resolvent operator. These forcing-response wave packets (resolvent modes) are first discussed with regard to relevant physical mechanisms that provide energy gain of flow perturbations in the jet. Modal shear instability and the nonmodal Orr mechanism are identified as dominant elements, cleanly separated between the optimal and suboptimal forcing-response pairs. A theoretical development in the framework of spectral covariance dynamics then explicates the link between linear harmonic forcing-response structures and the cross-spectral density (CSD) of stochastic turbulent fluctuations. A low-rank model of the CSD at given Strouhal number is formulated from a truncated set of linear resolvent modes. Corresponding experimental CSD matrices are constructed from extensive two-point velocity measurements. Their eigenmodes (spectral proper orthogonal or SPOD modes) represent coherent wave-packet structures, and these are compared to their counterparts obtained from the linear model. Close agreement is demonstrated in the range of preferred mode Strouhal numbers, around a value of 0.4, between the leading coherent wave-packet structures as educed from the experiment and from the linear resolvent-based model.
Unsteady laminar vortex shedding over a circular cylinder is predicted using a deep learning technique, a generative adversarial network (GAN), with a particular emphasis on elucidating the potential of learning the solution of the Navier-Stokes equa tions. Numerical simulations at two different Reynolds numbers with different time-step sizes are conducted to produce training datasets of flow field variables. Unsteady flow fields in the future at a Reynolds number which is not in the training datasets are predicted using a GAN. Predicted flow fields are found to qualitatively and quantitatively agree well with flow fields calculated by numerical simulations. The present study suggests that a deep learning technique can be utilized for prediction of laminar wake flow in lieu of solving the Navier-Stokes equations.
The present article represents part of the PhD. dissertation by C. Josserand. We discuss the nucleation of quantized vortices in the nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation (NLS) for a flow around a disk in two spatial dimensions. It appears that the vortic es are nucleated when the flow becomes locally (at the edge of the disk) supersonic. A detailed study of the phase equation for the complex field $psi$ gives an Euler-Tricomi type equation for the stationary solutions below threshold. This equation is closely related to the one known in shock wave dynamics for gas. Then using solvability condition, we extract a time-dependent scenario for the evolution of the amplitude of the solution, which we, finally, relate to a known family solution of NLS which gives rise to a vortex nucleation. We also give a first order correction at the Landau velocity of nucleation, taking into account the geometry of the flow.
We present a detailed analysis of the flow in a 180 sharp bend of square cross-section. Besides numerous applications where this generic configuration is found, its main fundamental interest resides in the co-existence of a recirculation bubble in th e outlet and a pair of Dean vortices driven from within the turning part of the bend, and how their interaction may drive the flow dynamics. A critical point analysis first shows that the complex flow topology that results from this particular configuration can be reduced to three pairs of critical points in the symmetry plane of the bend (with a focus and a half-saddle each). These pairs respectively generate the first recirculation bubble, the pair of Dean vortex tubes and a third pair of vortex tubes located in the upper corner of the bend, akin to the Dean vortices but of much lower intensity and impact on the rest of the flow. The Dean flow by contrast drives a strong vertical jet that splits the recirculation bubble into two symmetric lobes. Unsteadiness sets in at $Relesssim800$ through a supercritical bifurcation, as these lobes start oscillating antisymmetrically. These initially periodic oscillations grow in amplitude until the lobes break away from the main recirculation. The system then settles into a second periodic state where streamwise vortices driven by the Dean flow are alternatively formed and shed on the left and right part of the outlet. This novel mechanism of periodic vortex shedding results from the subtle interaction between the recirculation bubble in the outlet and the pair of Dean vortices generated in the turning part, and in this sense, they are expected to be a unique feature of the 180$^o$ bend with sufficiently close side walls.
