The application of drag-control strategies on canonical wall-bounded turbulence, such as periodic channel and zero- or adverse-pressure-gradient boundary layers, raises the question of how to describe control effects consistently for different reference cases. We employ the RD identity (Renard & Deck, J. Fluid Mech., 790, 2016, pp. 339-367) to decompose the mean friction drag and investigate the control effects of uniform blowing and suction applied to a NACA4412 airfoil at chord Reynolds numbers Re_c=200,000 and 400,000. The connection of the drag reduction/increase by using blowing/suction with the turbulence statistics (including viscous dissipation, turbulence-kinetic-energy production, and spatial growth of the flow) across the boundary layer, subjected to adverse or favorable pressure gradients, are examined. We found that the peaks of the statistics associated with the friction-drag generation exhibit good scaling in either inner or outer units throughout the boundary layer. They are also independent of the Reynolds number, control scheme, and intensity of the blowing/suction. The small- and large-scale structures are separated with an adaptive scale-decomposition method, i.e. empirical mode decomposition (EMD), aiming to analyze the scale-specific contribution of turbulent motions to friction-drag generation. Results unveil that blowing on the suction side of the airfoil is able to enhance the contribution of large-scale motions and to suppress that of small-scales; on the other hand, suction behaves contrarily. The contributions related to cross-scale interactions remain almost unchanged with different control strategies.

This work studies the effectiveness of several machine learning techniques for predicting extreme events occurring in the flow around an airfoil at low Reynolds. For certain Reynolds numbers the aerodynamic forces exhibit intermittent fluctuations ca
used by changes in the behavior of vortices in the airfoil wake. Such events are prototypical of the unsteady behavior observed in airfoils at low Reynolds and their prediction is extremely challenging due to their intermittency and the chaotic nature of the flow. We seek to forecast these fluctuations in advance of their occurrence by a specified length of time. We assume knowledge only of the pressure at a discrete set of points on the surface of the airfoil, as well as offline knowledge of the state of the flow. Methods include direct prediction from historical pressure measurements, flow reconstruction followed by forward integration using a full order solver, and data-driven dynamic models in various low dimensional quantities. Methods are compared using several criteria tailored for extreme event prediction. We show that methods using data-driven models of low order dynamic variables outperform those without dynamic models and that unlike previous works, low dimensional initializations do not accurately predict observables with extreme events such as drag.
Inviscid computational results are presented on a self-propelled virtual body combined with an airfoil undergoing pitch oscillations about its leading-edge. The scaling trends of the time-averaged thrust forces are shown to be predicted accurately by
Garricks theory. However, the scaling of the time-averaged power for finite amplitude motions is shown to deviate from the theory. Novel time-averaged power scalings are presented that account for a contribution from added-mass forces, from the large-amplitude separating shear layer at the trailing-edge, and from the proximity of the trailing-edge vortex. Scaling laws for the self-propelled speed, efficiency and cost of transport ($CoT$) are subsequently derived. Using these scaling relations the self-propelled metrics can be predicted to within 5% of their full-scale values by using parameters known a priori. The relations may be used to drastically speed-up the design phase of bio-inspired propulsion systems by offering a direct link between design parameters and the expected $CoT$. The scaling relations also offer one of the first mechanistic rationales for the scaling of the energetics of self-propelled swimming. Specifically, the cost of transport is shown to scale predominately with the added mass power. This suggests that the $CoT$ of organisms or vehicles using unsteady propulsion will scale with their mass as $CoT propto m^{-1/3}$, which is indeed shown to be consistent with existing biological data.
The friction felt by a speed skater is calculated as function of the velocity and tilt angle of the skate. This calculation is an extension of the more common theory of friction of upright skates. Not only in rounding a curve the skate has to be tilt
ed, but also in straightforward skating small tilt angles occur, which turn out to be of noticeable influence on the friction. As for the upright skate the friction remains fairly insensitive of the velocities occurring in speed skating.
We investigate superfluid flow around an airfoil accelerated to a finite velocity from rest. Using simulations of the Gross--Pitaevskii equation we find striking similarities to viscous flows: from production of starting vortices to convergence of ai
rfoil circulation onto a quantized version of the Kutta-Joukowski circulation. We predict the number of quantized vortices nucleated by a given foil via a phenomenological argument. We further find stall-like behavior governed by airfoil speed, not angle of attack, as in classical flows. Finally we analyze the lift and drag acting on the airfoil.
In this paper, the problem of compressible flow over a thin airfoil located near the ground is studied. A singular integral equation, also known as Possio equation, that relates the pressure jump along the airfoil to its downwash is derived. The deri
vation of the equation utilizes Laplace transform, Fourier transform, method of images, and theory of Mikhlin multipliers. The existence and uniqueness of solution to the Possio equation is verified for the steady state case and an approximate solution is obtained. The aerodynamic loads are then calculated based on the approximate solution. Moreover, the divergence speed of a continuum wing structure located near the ground is obtained based on the derived expressions for the aerodynamic loads.
