Analytical solutions in fluid dynamics can be used to elucidate the physics of complex flows and to serve as test cases for numerical models. In this work, we present the analytical solution for the acoustic boundary layer that develops around a rigid sphere executing small amplitude harmonic rectilinear motion in a compressible fluid. The mathematical framework that describes the primary flow is identical to that of wave propagation in linearly elastic solids, the difference being the appearance of complex instead of real valued wave numbers. The solution reverts to well-known classical solutions in special limits: the potential flow solution in the thin boundary layer limit, the oscillatory flat plate solution in the limit of large sphere radius and the Stokes flow solutions in the incompressible limit of infinite sound speed. As a companion analytical result, the steady second order acoustic streaming flow is obtained. This streaming flow is driven by the Reynolds stress tensor that arises from the axisymmetric first order primary flow around such a rigid sphere. These results are obtained with a linearization of the non-linear Navier-Stokes equations valid for small amplitude oscillations of the sphere. The streaming flow obeys a time-averaged Stokes equation with a body force given by the Nyborg model in which the above mentioned primary flow in a compressible Newtonian fluid is used to estimate the time-averaged body force. Numerical results are presented to explore different regimes of the complex transverse and longitudinal wave numbers that characterize the primary flow.

An analytical solution is proposed to predict the crown propagation, generated by a single droplet impact on wetted walls. This approach enables a smooth transition from the inertia-driven to the viscous-controlled regime of crown propagation. The mo
delling strategy is based on the stagnation-point flow, because it resembles closely the hydrodynamic flow in the lamella and offers two main advantages. First, it allows a simple estimation of the wall-film thinning rate, caused by the impulse transfer from the impacting droplet to the wall film. Second, thanks to the self-similarity of the solution, it enables a straightforward estimation of momentum losses during film spreading along the wall. By incorporating this estimation into existing inviscid models, an excellent agreement with experiments is found during the entire crown elevation phase. In general, the analysis shows that momentum losses due to viscous effects cannot be neglected during a significant portion of crown propagation, particularly for thin wall films. The proposed methodology paves the way for predicting the inception of crown bottom breakup (CBB). In this case, the crown lamella disintegrates directly at its base due to the spontaneous creation of holes that create a web-like structure in the lamella prior to its break-up. Our theoretical analysis shows that this premature break-up of the crown lamella is associated to local instability effects, caused by the unbalance between inertial forces and surface tension.
Getting inspired from swimming natural species, a lot of research is being carried out in the field of unmanned underwater vehicles. During the last two decades, more emphasis on the associated hydrodynamic mechanisms, structural dynamics, control te
chniques and, its motion and path planning has been prominently witnessed in the literature. Considering the importance of the involved acoustic mechanisms, we focus on the quantification of flow noise produced by an oscillating hydrofoil here employed as a kinematic model for fish or its relevant appendages. In our current study, we perform numerical simulations for flow over an oscillating hydrofoil for a wide range of flow and kinematic parameters. Using the Ffowcs-Williams and Hawkings (FW-H) method, we quantify the flow noise produced by a fish during its swimming for a range of kinematic and flow parameters including Reynolds number, reduced frequency, and Strouhal number. We find that the distributions of the sound pressure levels at the oscillating frequency and its first even harmonic due to the pressure fluctuations in the fluid domain are dipole-like patterns. The magnitudes of these sound pressure levels depend on the Reynolds number and Strouhal number, whereas the direction of their dipole-axes appears to be affected by the reduced frequency only. Moreover, We also correlate this emission of sound radiations with the hydrodynamic force coefficients.
In this paper we present a framework which provides an analytical (i.e., infinitely differentiable) transformation between spatial coordinates and orbital elements for the solution of the gravitational two-body problem. The formalism omits all singul
ar variables which otherwise would yield discontinuities. This method is based on two simple real functions for which the derivative rules are only required to be known, all other applications -- e.g., calculating the orbital velocities, obtaining the partial derivatives of radial velocity curves with respect to the orbital elements -- are thereafter straightforward. As it is shown, the presented formalism can be applied to find optimal instants for radial velocity measurements in transiting exoplanetary systems to constrain the orbital eccentricity as well as to detect secular variations in the eccentricity or in the longitude of periastron.
We present here a comprehensive derivation for the speed of a small bottom-heavy sphere forced by a transverse acoustic field and thereby establish how density inhomogeneities may play a critical role in acoustic propulsion. The sphere is trapped at
the pressure node of a standing wave whose wavelength is much larger than the sphere diameter. Due to its inhomogeneous density, the sphere oscillates in translation and rotation relative to the surrounding fluid. The perturbative flows induced by the spheres rotation and translation are shown to generate a rectified inertial flow responsible for a net mean force on the sphere that is able to propel the particle within the zero-pressure plane. To avoid an explicit derivation of the streaming flow, the propulsion speed is computed exactly using a suitable version of the Lorentz reciprocal theorem. The propulsion speed is shown to scale as the inverse of the viscosity, the cube of the amplitude of the acoustic field and is a non trivial function of the acoustic frequency. Interestingly, for some combinations of the constitutive parameters (fluid to solid density ratio, moment of inertia and centroid to center of mass distance), the direction of propulsion is reversed as soon as the frequency of the forcing acoustic field becomes larger than a certain threshold. The results produced by the model are compatible with both the observed phenomenology and the orders of magnitude of the measured velocities.
In this paper, we present an efficient, accurate and fully Lagrangian numerical solver for modeling wave interaction with oscillating wave energy converter (OWSC). The key idea is to couple SPHinXsys, an open-source multi-physics library in unified s
moothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) framework, with Simbody which presents an object-oriented Application Programming Interface (API) for multi-body dynamics. More precisely, the wave dynamics and its interaction with OWSC is resolved by Riemann-based weakly-compressible SPH method using SPHinXsys, and the solid-body kinematics is computed by Simbody library. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the proposed solver can accurately predict the wave elevations, flap rotation and wave loading on the flap in comparison with laboratory experiment. In particularly, the new solver shows optimized computational performance through CPU cost analysis and comparison with commercial software package ANSYS FLUENT and other SPH-based solvers in literature. Furthermore, a linear damper is applied for imitating the power take-off (PTO) system to study its effects on the hydrodynamics properties of OWSC and efficiency of energy harvesting. In addition, the present solver is used to model extreme wave condition using the focused wave approach to investigate the extreme loads and motions of OWSC under such extreme wave conditions. It worth noting that though the model validation used herein is a bottom hinged oscillating Wave Energy Converter (WEC), the obtained numerical results show promising potential of the proposed solver to future applications in the design of high-performance WECs.
