Abstract: Abstract The thrust performance of a two-dimensional plate pitching harmonically in a uniform flow is assessed numerically using the OpenFOAM toolbox [1]. The mesh displacement vector associated with the rigid body motion is computed as… read more here.

Abstract: The spatial transition of the wake behind a thin pitching plate in the thrust regime is studied. The drag-to-thrust transition is seen to occur at a threshold pitching frequency which becomes smaller for higher pitching… read more here.
