Over the past decade, the fluidic pinball has become a valuable benchmarkfor studying flow control strategies. The configuration consists of three independently rotating cylinders positioned at the vertices of an equilateral triangle, with the flow directed perpendicularly to one of its sides. The cylinder rotation rates serve as the control inputs, while velocity sensors located […]

This talk presents a comprehensive overview of advanced fluidic and thermal management strategies across biomedical and defense applications. We begin with a systematic evaluation of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), specifically addressing the challenges of simultaneous velocity and particle size measurement. By analyzing Gaussian intensity variations across the light sheet and the optical system’s depth of […]
