Computational Simulation of Turbulent (Jocaj Vortex Merger and Decay
Pradeep Raj,James D. Iversen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction and eventual merger of corotational vortices and the decay of a single vortex have been studied by employing zero-, one-and two-equation turbulent-flow models in order to gain a better understanding of the role of turbulence.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Correlation of Magnus force data for slender spinning cylinders
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived a correlation parameter for analysis of experimental Magnus force data, which is a function of angle of attack, the fineness ratio, and the Reynolds number for finless slender spinning circular cylinders.
Particle motion in atmospheric boundary layers of Mars and Earth
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental investigation of the flow field around a model crater in an atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel and numerical solutions of the two-and three-dimensional equations of motion of a single particle under the influence of a turbulent boundary layer were conducted.

Autorotating decelerating system for aerodynamic body
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for decelerating an aerodynamic body includes at least two pair of rotor members mounted on the exterior of the body, at diametrically opposite locations on the body.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Estimated grain saltation in a Martian atmosphere.
TL;DR: In this article, both experimental investigation in an atmospheric wind tunnel and numerical solutions of the equations of motion of a single grain under Martian surface conditions were conducted to study the eolian mechanics of saltating grains.
