Motor Learning at Intermediate Reynolds Number: Experiments with Policy Gradient on a Heaving Plate
This work describes the development of a model-free reinforcement learning-based control methodology for the heaving plate, a laboratory experimental fluid system that serves as a model of flapping flight. Through an optimized policy gradient algorithm, we were able to demonstrate rapid convergence (requiring less than 10 minutes of experiments) to a stroke form which maximized the propulsive e...
متن کاملEnhancement of Heat Transfer by an Electric Field for a Drop Translating at Intermediate Reynolds Number
The enhancement of heat transfer by an electric field to a spherical droplet translating at intermediate Reynolds number is numerically investigated using a finite volume method. Two heat transfer limits are considered. The first limit is the external problem where the bulk of the resistance is assumed to be in the continuous phase. Results show that the external Nusselt number significantly in...
متن کاملLow-Reynolds-number swimming at pycnoclines.
Microorganisms play pivotal functions in the trophic dynamics and biogeochemistry of aquatic ecosystems. Their concentrations and activities often peak at localized hotspots, an important example of which are pycnoclines, where water density increases sharply with depth due to gradients in temperature or salinity. At pycnoclines organisms are exposed to different environmental conditions compar...
متن کاملQuiet swimming at low Reynolds number.
The stresslet provides a simple model of the flow created by a small, freely swimming and neutrally buoyant aquatic organism and shows that the far field fluid disturbance created by such an organism in general decays as one over distance squared. Here we discuss a quieter swimming mode that eliminates the stresslet component of the flow and leads to a faster spatial decay of the fluid disturba...
متن کاملCompensatory escape mechanism at low Reynolds number.
Despite high predation pressure, planktonic copepods remain one of the most abundant groups on the planet. Their escape response provides one of most effective mechanisms to maximize evolutionary fitness. Owing to their small size (100 µm) compared with their predators (>1 mm), increasing viscosity is believed to have detrimental effects on copepods' fitness at lower temperature. Using high-spe...
