Energy Harvesting from a Vortex Ring Using Highly Deformable Smart Materials
(University of Waterloo, 2016-01-06)Recently, the growing demand of compact energy harvesters for wireless sensor networks has lead to an increasing interest in exploring the energy harvesting capabilities of smart materials. Smart materials are a category ... -
Simulation of Vortex Interactions With a Solid Wall Using Adaptive Mesh Refinement
(University of Waterloo, 2016-05-12)One feature that is common to many fluid flows is that phenomena of interest often occur at disparate length scales, whether it be vortices interacting with a boundary layer, or shear instabilities on an internal gravity ... -
The Vortex Dynamics of Laminar Separation Bubbles
(University of Waterloo, 2021-01-15)Laminar separation bubbles (LSBs) are common features in low Reynolds number flows, and can have considerable performance impacts in applications such as hydrofoils, small-to-medium scale wind turbines, micro and unmanned ...
