Bio-inspired designs have been serving as a great inspiration for Aerodynamists for the past
several decades. The biological features of each species have evolved through generations …

This comprehensive review aims to provide a critical overview of the work on tubercles in the
past decade. The humpback whale is of interest to aerodynamic/hydrodynamic researchers …

Abstract The Scale-Adaptive Simulation (SAS) approach has emerged as an improved
unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) formulation to bridge the gap …

Multi-megawatt floating vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are a promising solution to
exploit offshore wind energy resources in deep water sites. At this large-scale, the VAWT's …

The present work examines the influence of blade thickness-to-chord ratio (t/c) on dynamic
stall phenomenon in an H-type Darrieus wind rotor. A 2D incompressible numerical study is …

The dynamic stall development on a pitching airfoil at Re= 10 6 was investigated by time-
resolved surface pressure and velocity field measurements. Two stages were identified in …

A parametric study has been performed to analyse the flow around the thick-symmetric
NACA 0021 airfoil in order to better understand the characteristics and effects of long …

Dynamic stall (DS) on a wind turbine is encountered when the sectional angles of attack of
the blade rapidly exceeds the steady-state stall angle of attack due to in-flow turbulence …

The blades of a large Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) are subjected to significant
vibrations during operation. The vibrations affect the dynamic flow field around the blade …

Dynamic stall often leads to unsteady load and performance degradation in horizontal axis
wind turbines. Therefore, accurate modeling of dynamic stall is crucial. However, due to the …
