    Author : Pierluigi Morra; Dan S. Henningson; Ardeshir Hanifi; André V. G. Cavalieri; Shervin Bagheri; Aimee S. Morgans; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reduced order modeling; flow control; resolvent analysis; transi- tional boundary layer; turbulent boundary layer; drag reduction; high-fidelity wall-turbulence modelling; modellreduktion; strömningskontroll; resolvent analys; laminär- turbulent omslag; turbulent gränsskikt; motståndsminskning; väggturbulens modellering; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The dynamics of fluid motion can accurately be described by the Navier– Stokes equations. Manipulating these equations to reduce their complexity but preserving their main characteristics has always been a key research activity in the field of fluid mechanics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Numerical computations of wind turbine wakes

    Author : Stefan S. A. Ivanell; Dan Henningson; Peinke Joachim; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Actuator Line Model; Actuator Disc Model; Wind Turbine Wake; CFD; LES; EllipSys3D; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : Numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations are performed to achieve a better understanding of the behaviour of wakes generated by wind turbines. The simulations are performed by combining the in-house developed computer code EllipSys3D with the actuator line and disc methodologies. READ MORE

  3. 3. Global stability and feedback control of boundary layer flows

    Author : Espen Åkervik; Dan S. Henningson; Luca Brandt; Dwight Barkley; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stability; Global Stability; Feedback Control; Control; Estimation; Absolute Convective Instabilities; Model Reduction; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : In this thesis the stability of generic boundary layer flows is studied from a global viewpoint using optimization methods. Global eigenmodes of the incompressible linearized Navier-Stokes equations are computed using the Krylov subspace Arnoldi method. READ MORE

  4. 4. Spectral Accuracy in Fast Ewald Methods and Topics in Fluid Interface Simulation

    Author : Dag Lindbo; Anna-Karin Tornberg; Michael S. Siegel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract :   This work contains two separate but related parts: one on spectrally  accurate and fast Ewald methods for electrostatics and viscous flow,  and one on micro- and complex fluid interface problems.  In Part I we are concerned with fast and spectrally accurate methods  to compute sums of slowly decaying potentials over periodic  lattices.
