Machine Learning for sensing and control of dynamic stall in realistic conditions
Dynamic stall is an aerodynamic phenomenon that can occur on lifting surfaces in extreme conditions, such as gust encounters and rapid manoeuvres, and is characterised by the formation and convection of a distinct, rotating flow structure - the Dynamic Stall Vortex (DSV). Read more
Multifidelity models for uncertainty quantification, optimization and prediction in turbulent flows
Obtaining high-fidelity accurate data for turbulent flows using numerical simulations and laboratory experiments is challenging considering the cost and technical restrictions. Read more
