Self-propulsion of flapping bodies in viscous fluids: Recent advances and perspectives

Flapping-powered propulsion is used by many animals to locomote through air or water. Here we review recent experimental and numerical studies on self-propelled mechanical systems powered by a flapping motion. These studies improve our understanding of the mutual interaction between actively flapping bodies and surrounding fluids. The results obtained in these works provide not only new insights into biolocomotion but also useful information for the bio-mimetic design of artificial flyers and swimmers.

The Role of Depth and 1/f Dynamics in Perceiving Reversible Figures

When confronted with a reversible figure, such as the Necker Cube, viewers experience a spontaneously changing percept. We assess the dynamic of how the human visual system resolves perceptual ambiguity in stimuli that offer multiple interpretations. Subjects observed the Necker cube for one of three viewing durations during which they pressed a key each time they perceived a change in the orientation of the cube. Manipulations of binocular disparity served as a parameter to control perceptual stability. Low-depth conditions yielded more perceptual reversals than high-depth conditions. A Fourier analysis performed on the time series of reversals show 1/f (pink) noise was evident in their power spectra. These results together with theoretical models of complex systems (e.g., Bak, Tang, & Wiesenfeld, 1987) suggest that depth information may guide our perceptual system into a self-organized state to assist us in resolving ambiguous information. Moreover, slopes of the spectra were steeper in high-depth and brief viewing conditions, suggesting that the visual system relies more on previous perceptual states and filters more white noise in these conditions.

Transitions between two pictorial attractors

Two experiments exploring similarity judgments on pairs and triplets of stimuli drawn from pictorial series are described. The stimuli are the Man-Woman and Gypsy-Girl pictures that slowly change from one prototype to the other as one progresses along the series. These have been used previously to demonstrate hysteresis of category judgments on ambiguous figures; the Man Woman series has been both modelled as a problem in neural network theory and mapped onto part of a cusp catastrophe surface. It. is shown that the transition process is complicated with a zone of uncertainty and prevalence of bimodality in many of the pairwise similarity judgments. The dynamics are interpreted in terms of transitions between two saddle-node attractors that are themselves not a discrete pair but have some overlap in their composition.     

Coherent and random structure in reacting jets

Combustion rate and stability are strongly related to the interaction of fluid dynamics with the combustion process in reactive flow systems. The ability to control the combustion depends on the understanding of this interaction. This paper describes the use of the Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) technique to get insight into these processes, by looking at the coherent and random structures of a combusting jet. The coherent structures educed by phase-locked averaging are significantly different from instantaneous pictures, which are highly three dimensional. The PLIF images clarify the relationship between the large-scale structures and the generation of small-scale turbulence.

Experimental investigation of a hydrofoil designed via hydrostructural optimization

In the last decade, there has been an increased interest in the use of multidisciplinary optimization techniques for the design of aerospace, maritime, and wind engineering systems. However, validation of numerically optimized results using experimental measurements has been scarce. In this paper, numerical predictions are compared with experimental measurements of the hydrodynamic forces, deformations, and cavitation performance for a baseline NACA 0009 hydrofoil and an optimized hydrofoil. Both hydrofoils are made of solid aluminum, and are cantilevered at the root. One of the hydrofoils is optimized using a high-fidelity hydrostructural solver combined with a gradient-based optimizer, as detailed by Garg et al. (2017). The numerical predictions agree well with experimental measurements for both the baseline NACA 0009 and the optimized hydrofoils. For the optimized hydrofoil, the mean differences between the predicted and measured values for mean lift, drag coefficient, and moment coefficients, are 2.9%, 5.1%, and 3.0%, respectively. For the non-dimensional tip bending deflection, the mean difference is 3.4%. Although the optimized hydrofoil is significantly thicker to withstand higher loads than the baseline, it yields an overall measured increase in the lift-to-drag ratio of 29% for lift coefficients ranging from $-0.15$ to 0.75 and exhibits significantly delayed cavitation inception compared to the baseline. The improvement in hydroelastic and cavitation performance is attributed to the changes in the distribution of camber, twist, thickness, and the leading edge radius of the optimized hydrofoil. The results validate the analysis and optimization of the high-fidelity hydrostructural design optimization approach, and opens up new possibilities for the design of high-performance hydrofoils, marine propellers, and turbines.

Microfabricated Force Sensors and Their Applications in the Study of Cell Mechanical Response

Living cells are sensitive to their mechanical environments and they transduce mechanical stimuli into biological responses. Developing suitable experimental techniques is essential to explore the question on how cells respond to mechanical stimuli. The current major techniques normally induce small cell deformations and measure their corresponding cell force response (small) in the range of 1 pN to 10nN. However, in many physiological conditions, cell deformations can be large (comparable to the cell sizes) inducing large force response. In order to explore cell mechanical behavior under large deformations, we introduce a class of microfabricated force sensors. The sensors, consisting of a probe and flexible beams, normally measure cell force response in the range of 1nN to 1μN. Both the one- and two-component force sensors have been developed, and have been used in cell experiments. These experiments showed the versatility of the force sensors. Representative experimental results on cell stretch force response, cell indentation force response, and in situ observation of the actin cytoskeleton during indentation, will be given. These results provide significant insight on cell mechanical response under large deformations.     

Mechanical Stimuli for Left Ventricular Growth During Pressure Overload

Background

The mechanical stimulus (i.e., stress or stretch) for growth occurring in the pressure-overloaded left ventricle (LV) is not exactly known.

Objective

To address this issue, we investigate the correlation between local ventricular growth (indexed by local wall thickness) and the local acute changes in mechanical stimuli after aortic banding.

Methods

LV geometric data were extracted from 3D echo measurements at baseline and 2 weeks in the aortic banding swine model (n?=?4). We developed and calibrated animal-specific finite element (FE) model of LV mechanics against pressure and volume waveforms measured at baseline. After simulation of the acute effects of pressure-overload, the local changes of maximum, mean and minimum myocardial stretches and stresses in three orthogonal material directions (i.e., fiber, sheet and sheet-normal) over a cardiac cycle were quantified. Correlation between mechanical quantities and the corresponding measured local changes in wall thickness was quantified using the Pearson correlation number (PCN) and Spearman rank correlation number (SCN).

Results

At 2 weeks after banding, the average septum thickness decreased from 10.6?±?2.92 mm to 9.49?±?2.02 mm, whereas the LV free-wall thickness increased from 8.69?±?1.64 mm to 9.4?±?1.22 mm. The FE results show strong correlation of growth with the changes in maximum fiber stress (PCN?=?0.5471, SCN?=?0.5111) and changes in the mean sheet-normal stress (PCN?=?0.5266, SCN?=?0.5256). Myocardial stretches, however, do not have good correlation with growth.

Conclusion

These results suggest that fiber stress is the mechanical stimuli for LV growth in pressure-overload.

高焓膨胀管中压缩管最佳长度设计分析

中国空气动力研究与发展中心超高速所即将建成的高焓喷胀管采用自由活塞驱动,为了能够使该设备有效运行试验时间达到最长,需要对设备中的压缩管长度进行优化。针对压缩管中的自由活塞运动,本文通过数值求解单一组分和混合驱动气体条件下的活塞运动准一维常微分控制方程组,分析了不同试验设计参数和不同驱动气体介质对压缩管定压驱动时间的影响。采用数值解结合脊线(局部极值曲线)理论获得了定压驱动时间局部极值曲面,基于压缩管四种摩尔比例驱动气体(100%H2,85%H2+15%N2,100%He,85%He+15%Ar)和三组压缩比(λ=60,100,140)下的极值曲面,研究发现,定压驱动时间脊线高度随着压缩管的有效长度(初始活塞头部到压缩管末端膜片的距离)和内径之比L/D增加而增加。本文研究最终获得了给定参数条件下满足最长定压驱动时间要求的最佳压缩管长度。     

A comparison of the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave and ultrasound therapy in the management of heel pain

The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and ultrasound therapy (US) for managing heel pain. Thirty-seven subjects received either: ESWT (once a week), US (three times a week), or CONTROL (no treatment) for 3 consecutive weeks and were followed-up for 3 more weeks. A visual analogue scale (VAS), the maximum tolerable duration for prolonged walking or standing, and the Mayo clinical scoring system (MCSS) were evaluated. Mixed models treating baseline measures as covariates were adopted for statistical analysis. By week 3, intensity of heel pain on palpation was reduced by 37% (VAS score from 7.5 to 4.6) in the ESWT group, 24% (from 5.3 to 4.2) in the US group, and increased by 3% (5.6–5.7) in the control group; this difference was significant after adjusting for baseline VAS scores (p = 0.022). The improvements in the maximum tolerable duration of prolonged walking or standing was only significant in the ESWT group (157% increase, p = 0.043) but not the other two groups. Both active treatment groups maintained the treatment effect at the three-week follow-up. We conclude that ESWT is potentially more effective in reducing heel pain than ultrasound therapy but additional evidence is needed due to the various limitations of the study.
