We present an alternative encapsulated formulation of the Selective Frequency Damping method for finding unstable equilibria of dynamical systems, which is particularly useful when analysing the stability of fluid flows. The formulation makes use of splitting methods, which means that it can be wrapped around an existing time-stepping code as a black box. The method is first applied to a scalar problem in order to analyse its stability and highlight the roles of the control coefficient $chi$ and the filter width $Delta$ in the convergence (or not) towards the steady-state. Then the steady-state of the incompressible flow past a two-dimensional cylinder at $Re=100$, obtained with a code which implements the spectral/hp element method, is presented.
The selective frequency damping (SFD) method is an alternative to classical Newtons method to obtain unstable steady-state solutions of dynamical systems. However this method has two main limitations: it does not converge for arbitrary control parame
The shallow water equations (SWE) are a widely used model for the propagation of surface waves on the oceans. We consider the problem of optimally determining the initial conditions for the one-dimensional SWE in an unbounded domain from a small set
A computational framework based on nonlinear direct-adjoint looping is presented for optimizing mixing strategies for binary fluid systems. The governing equations are the nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations, augmented by an evolution equation for a pa
A sensitive porosity adjoint method (SPAM) for optimizing the topology of fluid machines has been proposed. A sensitivity function with respect to the porosity has been developed. In the first step of the optimization process, porous media are introd
The performance of interFoam (a widely used solver within OpenFOAM package) in simulating the propagation of water waves has been reported to be sensitive to the temporal and spatial resolution. To facilitate more accurate simulations, a numerical wa
