The framework of the linearised theory of water waves in the time domain is used to examine the horizontal motion of an unrestrained floating structure. One of the principle assumptions of the theory is that an infinitesimal disturbance of the rest state will lead to an infinitesimal motion of the fluid and structure. It has been known for some time that for some initial conditions the theory p...

Experiments and simulations are presented for the interaction of single bubbles rising in a viscous liquid against horizontal cylinder (Ø = 4 mm) varying wettability. The slide-off small cutting larger into two daughter observed experiment reproduced by phase-field simulations. It is shown that entire process bubble separated film, which eliminates any influence Before mother splits, thinning g...

The increasing trend in use of marmoset monkeys in behavioral studies has necessitated a greater understanding of their natural behavior, especially within confined spatial environments. One way to approach this issue is to examine locomotor and exploratory strategies using the cylinder test, as done recently for the rat by Gharbawie et al. [Gharbawie OA, Whishaw PA, Whishaw IQ. The topography ...

We report band formation and other pattern formation for a settling suspension of uniform non-Brownian particles in a completely filled horizontal rotating cylinder. The system shows a series of sharp pattern changes that are mapped out as a function of the rotation period and suspension viscosity. The experiment suggests that a large number of patterns and rich dynamics result from the interpl...

Laminar boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid along a stretching horizontal cylinder embedded in a porous medium is discussed. The governing system of partial differential equations is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations. Mathematics has been used to solve such system after obtaining the missed initial conditions. The obtained results are compared with previo...

In this study, divided into two parts, the effect on a two-dimensional backward-facing step flow (BFSF) of cylinder placed downstream was numerically investigated. While in Part 1, numerical simulations carried out without were validated using available literature data, 2 laminar regime, different Reynolds numbers considered. turbulent effects structure at horizontal and vertical locations comp...

Using the lubrication approximation we investigate two-dimensional steady flow of a thin film of fluid with temperature-dependent viscosity on a uniformly heated or cooled horizontal cylinder, which may be stationary or rotating about its axis, in the case when the Biot number (a measure of heat transfer at the free surface) is large. We show that the film thickness (but not the fluid velocity)...

Animal fliers frequently move through a variety of perturbed flows during their daily aerial routines. However, the extent to which these perturbations influence flight control and energetic expenditure is essentially unknown. Here, we evaluate the kinematic and metabolic consequences of flight within variably sized vortex shedding flows using five Anna's hummingbirds feeding from an artificial...
