Fiscaletti, D. (author), Lima Pereira, L.T. (author), Ragni, D. (author)The present study focuses on the application of finlet rails as a passive technique of flow control to mitigate trailing-edge noise. Finlet rails are small cylinders whose axes are aligned along the streamwise direction, transversally positioned with respect to the trailing edge.

Ujjaini Kempaiah, K. (author)A flying aircraft consumes fuel to overcome air resistance during its motion. A significant part of this consumption (55%) is due to turbulent skin friction arising at the interface of the aircraft surface and the air. The current work aims to develop and investigate relevant turbulent skin-friction reduction techniques and assist in advancing...doctoral thesis 2023

Huang, M. (author)The development of offshore wind energy, especially the steps towards deep water and/or higher density wind farms, revives the prospects of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). Because VAWTs may reduce the cost of floating structures, there is a potential to lower energy costs. However, VAWTs are often assumed to be less efficient and less...doctoral thesis 2023

Huang, M. (author), Vijaykumar Patil, Yugandhar (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), Ferreira, Carlos (author)Wakes and wake interactions in wind turbine arrays diminish energy output and raise the risk of structural fatigue; hence, comprehending the features of rotor–wake interactions is of practical relevance. Previous studies suggest that vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) can facilitate a quicker wake recovery. This study experimentally...journal article 2023

Huang, M. (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), Ferreira, Carlos (author)Wake losses are a critical consideration in wind farm design. The ability to steer and deform wakes can result in increased wind farm power density and reduced energy costs and can be used to optimize wind farm designs. This study investigates the wake deflection of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) experimentally, emphasizing the effect of...journal article 2023

Jux, C. (author)Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is the state of the art for quantitative, full-field, 3D flow diagnostics. Despite the maturity of the technique, two bottlenecks are identified which are addressed in this thesis: the achievable measurement volume size, and the optical access to geometrically complex objects. Both aspects are well illustrated...doctoral thesis 2022

(author), Janssen, Hans (author)Salt water intrusion through the New Sea Lock of IJmuiden, Netherlands requires mitigation to ensure availability of enough fresh water further inland. For this purpose, a salt screen has been proposed for selective withdrawal of salt water from the Noordzeekanaal in the vicinity of the lock complex. Formulas to assess the withdrawal rate of...journal article 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author), Markine, V.L. (author)Railway ballast is normally made of crushed rocks with grading (particle size distributions). Ballast is inevitably suffering from more rapid degradation. Because ballast keeps undergoing and dissipating most of the train loadings, furthermore, the train speed and freight weight are increasing, causing more intensive loadings to ballast. To...book chapter 2022
