Multi-Agent Search Using Voronoi Partition
(2010-08-05)
This thesis addresses a multi-agent search problem where several agents, equipped with sensors and communication devices, search an unknown area. Lack of information about the search space is modeled as an uncertainty ...
The Effect Of Energy Deposition In Hypersonic Blunt Body Flow Field
(2010-09-23)
A body exposed to hypersonic flow is subjected to extremely high wall heating rates, owing to the conversion of the kinetic energy of the oncoming flow into heat through the formation of shock waves and viscous dissipation ...
Motion Optimistion Of Plunging Airfoil Using Swarm Algorithm
(2010-06-03)
Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) are battery operated, remote controlled miniature flying vehicles. MAVs are required in military missions, traffic management, hostage situation surveillance, sensing, spying, scientific, rescue, ...
A Study Of A Vortex Particle Method For Vortex Breakdown Phenomena
(2010-07-06)
Vortex breakdown is an important phenomenon observed in swirling flows involving the development of a stagnation point on the axis of the vortex followed by a region of recirculation when the swirl increases beyond a ...
Instabilities In Supersonic Couette Flow
(2010-07-15)
Compressible plane Couette flow is studied with superposed small perturbations. The steady mean flow is characterized by a non-uniform shear-rate and a varying temperature across the wall-normal direction for an appropriate ...
Investigations On Film Cooling At Hypersonic Mach Number Using Forward Facing Injection From Micro-Jet Array
(2010-07-16)
A body in a hypersonic flow field will experience very high heating especially during re-entry. Conventionally this problem is tackled to some extent by the use of large angle
blunt cones. At the cost of increased drag, ...
Dynamics and Stability of Multiple Jets in Geophysical Flows
(2018-04-18)
The effect of rotation on the stability of multiple jets in planetary atmospheres is system- atically investigated. Typically in Jovian planetary atmospheres, multiple zonal jets have been observed and their morphology has ...
Creation of an Orderly Jet and Thrust Generation in Quiescent Fluid from an Oscillating Two-dimensional Flexible Foil
(2018-02-22)
In nature, many of the flapping wings and fins in swimming and flying animals have various degrees of flexibility with strong and coupled solid-fluid interactions between the structure and the fluid. In most cases, the ...
