WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — In 2018, passengers onboard a flight to Australia experienced a terrifying 10-second nosedive when a vortex trailing their plane crossed into the wake of another flight. The ...
Dr. Basu Parmar was a Ph.D student in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder. Dr. Parmar graduated in Fall 2023, and his dissertation focused ...
The team used an AI method known as equation discovery to develop a model to simulate the interactions between small eddies—circular, vortex-like currents—and large-scale ones. These interactions are ...
Researchers at Purdue University have created a turbulence model for vortex collisions that could allow aircraft engineers and designers to build aircraft more capable of handling extreme scenarios.
The goal of this project is to construct a statistical morphing continuum theory to model the complex and non-equilibrium physics of microstructured eddies in compressible turbulence. This multiscale ...
Turbulence as a research area investigates the physics, modeling, and prediction of highly irregular, vortical fluid motion characterized by strong nonlinearity, multiscale interactions, and enhanced ...
