• Bow Shock Clustering in Particle-laden Wetted Cylinder Flow 

      Shi, Zhaoyu; Jiang, Fengjian; Strandenes, Håkon; Zhao, Lihao; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09)
      The inhomogeneous distributions of inertial particles in the unsteady flow around a wetted circular cylinder at Re=100 were investigated in one-way coupled three-dimensional numerical simulations. The Kármán vortex cells ...
    • Clusters and coherent voids in particle-laden wake flow 

      Shi, Zhaoyu; Jiang, Fengjian; Zhao, Lihao; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Inertial point particles suspended in a two-dimensional unsteady circular cylinder flow at Re = 100 are studied by one-way coupled three-dimensional numerical simulations. The striking clustering pattern in the near-wake ...
    • Different topologies of natural vortex dislocations in Mode A wake 

      Tian, Cai; Shi, Zhaoyu; Jiang, Fengjian; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The mode A wake behind a circular cylinder at Reynolds number 200 was simulated by directly solving the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations. A more detailed investigation of different topologies of natural vortex ...
    • Flow Around Curved Tandem Cylinders 

      Aasland, Tale Egeberg; Pettersen, Bjørnar; Andersson, Helge Ingolf; Jiang, Fengjian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The flow around curved tandem cylinders of equal diameter has been investigated for the first time, by means of direct numerical simulations. A convex configuration was used. The nominal gap ratio was L/D = 3.0 and a ...
    • Inertial torque on a small spheroid in a stationary uniform flow 

      Jiang, Fengjian; Lihao, Zhao; Andersson, Helge Ingolf; Gustavsson, Kristian; Pumir, Alain; Mehlig, Bernhard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      How anisotropic particles rotate and orient in a flow depends on the hydrodynamic torque they experience. Here we compute the torque acting on a small spheroid in a uniform flow by numerically solving the Navier-Stokes ...
    • Revisiting the reattachment regime: a closer look at tandem cylinder flow at Re=10000 

      Aasland, Tale Egeberg; Pettersen, Bjørnar; Andersson, Helge Ingolf; Jiang, Fengjian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Tandem cylinder flow comprises several different flow regimes. Within the reattachment regime, the development of the gap shear layers is of utmost importance to the flow, but has received little attention so far. Through ...
    • Scale-dependent particle clustering in transitional wake flow 

      Shi, Zhaoyu; Jiang, Fengjian; Zhao, Lihao; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Dispersion and mixing of inertial point particles in the unsteady and three-dimensional wake of a circular cylinder at Re=200 are investigated via one-way coupled simulations. The presence of streamwise-oriented vortical ...
    • State-of-the-Art Review of Vortex-Induced Motions of Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Structures 

      Yin, Decao; Passano, Elisabeth; Jiang, Fengjian; Lie, Halvor; Wu, Jie; Ye, Naiquan; Sævik, Svein; Leira, Bernt Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The motivation for this study is the fast development of floating offshore wind energy and the immature methodology and engineering practice related to predictions of vortex-induced motions (VIM). Benefiting from the oil ...
    • Three-dimensional wake transition behind an elliptic cylinder near a moving wall 

      Zhu, Jianxun; Jiang, Fengjian; Holmedal, Lars Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Three-dimensional flow past an elliptic cylinder with an aspect ratio of 0.5 near a moving bottom wall is investigated numerically for gap ratios of 𝐺/𝐷=0.1,0.2,0.3, and 0.4 (where G denotes the gap between the cylinder ...
