Effect of Hydrofoil Trailing Edge Geometry on the Wake Dynamics

In the present study, the effect of a hydrofoil trailing edge shape on the wake dynamic and its interaction with the mechanical structure is investigated. This would help better describe the physical reasons for vibration reduction when using oblique and D ...

Experimental Investigation of the Aeroelastic Stability of an Annular Compressor Cascade at Reverse Flow Conditions

Virginie Anne Chenaux

Compressor surge events are unsafe operating regimes yielding highly unsteady flow fields in which complex aeroelastic phenomena occur. If the blade flutter and forced response behaviour (i.e. aeroelastic stability) can be predicted reliably for normal flo ...

The EPFL jumpglider: A hybrid jumping and gliding robot with rigid or folding wings

Dario Floreano, Mirko Kovac, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Wassim Hraiz, Oriol Fauria Torrent

Recent work suggests that wings can be used to prolong the jumps of miniature jumping robots. However, no functional miniature jumping robot has been presented so far that can successfully apply this hybrid locomotion principle. In this publication, we pre ...
