Diffraction waves on large aspect ratio rectangular submerged breakwaters (2020)
Journal Article
Masoudi, E., & Gan, L. (2020). Diffraction waves on large aspect ratio rectangular submerged breakwaters. Ocean Engineering, 209, Article 107474. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2020.107474

In this paper, hydrodynamic characteristics of two-dimensional submerged breakwaters in water of finite depth and infinite domain interacting with sinusoidal waves are studied from both analytical and numerical approaches. Added mass and damping coef... Read More about Diffraction waves on large aspect ratio rectangular submerged breakwaters.

Dynamics of Compact Vortex Rings Generated by Axial Swirlers at Early Stage (2020)
Journal Article

This work concentrates on the study of flow dynamics of swirl vortex rings at the Reynolds number Re = 20 000 using a combination of the planar- and stereo-particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements and dynamic delayed detached-eddy simulation. Pa... Read More about Dynamics of Compact Vortex Rings Generated by Axial Swirlers at Early Stage.

A Particle Image Velocimetry study of dual-rotor counter-rotating wind turbine near wake (2020)
Journal Article
Hollands, E., He, C., & Gan, L. (2020). A Particle Image Velocimetry study of dual-rotor counter-rotating wind turbine near wake. Journal of Visualization, 23(3), 425-435. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12650-020-00643-0

This experimental work studied the flow characteristics in the near wake region behind dual-rotor wind turbines using two-dimensional particle image velocimetry. Two auxiliary rotors of 50% and 80% scale of the main rotor were installed upwind and op... Read More about A Particle Image Velocimetry study of dual-rotor counter-rotating wind turbine near wake.

Instantaneous Pressure Determination from Unsteady Velocity Fields Using Adjoint-based Sequential Data Assimilation (2020)
Journal Article
He, C., Liu, Y., & Gan, L. (2020). Instantaneous Pressure Determination from Unsteady Velocity Fields Using Adjoint-based Sequential Data Assimilation. Physics of Fluids, 32(3), Article 035101. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5143760

A sequential data assimilation (DA) method is developed for pressure determination of turbulent velocity fields measured by particle image velocimetry (PIV), based on the unsteady adjoint formulation. A forcing term F, which is optimized using the ad... Read More about Instantaneous Pressure Determination from Unsteady Velocity Fields Using Adjoint-based Sequential Data Assimilation.

The role of flow rotation in the adult right atrium: a 4D flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance study (2020)
Journal Article
