Control of Flow Over a Bluff Body

TLDR
In this paper, the authors present control methods for flow over a bluff body such as a circular cylinder, a 2D bluff body with a blunt trailing edge, and a sphere.
Abstract
In this review, we present control methods for flow over a bluff body such as a circular cylinder, a 2D bluff body with a blunt trailing edge, and a sphere. We introduce recent major achievements in bluff-body flow controls such as 3D forcing, active feedback control, control based on local and global instability, and control with a synthetic jet. We then classify the controls as boundary-layer controls and direct-wake modifications and discuss important features associated with these controls. Finally, we discuss some other issues such as Reynolds-number dependence, the lowest possible drag by control, and control efficiency.

Actuators for Active Flow Control

TL;DR: This review provides a framework for the discussion of actuator specifications, characteristics, selection, design, and classification for aeronautical applications and attempts to highlight the strengths and inevitable drawbacks of each and highlight potential future research directions.

Coherent structures in wall-bounded turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe wall-bounded turbulence as a deterministic high-dimensional dynamical system of interacting coherent structures, defined as eddies with enough internal dynamics to behave relatively autonomously from any remaining incoherent part of the flow.

Dynamics and Control of Global Instabilities in Open-Flows: A Linearized Approach

TL;DR: In this article, the dynamics and control of low-frequency unsteadiness, as observed in some aerodynamic applications, were addressed, and a coherent and rigorous linearized approach was presented, which enables both to describe the dynamics of commonly encountered open-flows and to design open-loop and closed-loop control strategies, in view of suppressing or delaying instabilities.

Coherent Structures in Wall-Bounded Turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the current knowledge about some particular kinds of coherent structures in the logarithmic and outer layers of wall-bounded turbulent flows and argued that a concerned effort is required to quantitatively identify which one (or ones) of the plausible available dynamical models is a better representation of the observed behaviour.

Vortex-induced vibrations

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes fundamental results and discoveries concerning vortex-induced vibration (VIV) that have been made over the last two decades, many of which are related to the push to explore very low mass and damping, and to new computational and experimental techniques that were hitherto not available.
