A numerical investigation is performed to analyse the suppression of the boundary layer
separation first on a NACA 0015 airfoil and subsequently in a highly loaded subsonic …

Flow control over a NACA 0012 airfoil is carried out using a dielectric barrier discharge
(DBD) plasma actuator at the Reynolds number of 20 000. Here, the plasma actuator is …

Abstract The use of Active Flow Control (AFC) technologies to modify the forces acting on
streamlined bodies is one of the most active research fields in aerodynamics. For each …

Aerodynamic performances may be optimised by the appropriate tuning of Active Flow
Control (AFC) parameters. For the first time, we couple Genetic Algorithms (GA) with an …

The formulation of the optimization problem was based on the maximization of an objective
function, which was alternatively selected from the four integral quantities: volumetric flux …

In order to promote an in-depth understanding of the mechanism of leading-edge flow
