On bounds of the drag for Stokes flow around a body without thickness

Didier Bresch (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to lower and upper bounds of the hydrodynamical drag T for a body in a Stokes flow. We obtain the upper bound since the solution for a flow in an annulus and therefore the hydrodynamical drag can be explicitly derived. The lower bound is obtained by comparison to the Newtonian capacity of a set and with the help of a result due to J. Simon [ 10 ] . The chosen approach provides an interesting lower bound which is independent of the interior of the body.

Computation of the drag force on a sphere close to a wall

David Gérard-Varet, Matthieu Hillairet (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider the effect of surface roughness on solid-solid contact in a Stokes flow. Various models for the roughness are considered, and a unified methodology is given to derive the corresponding asymptotics of the drag force in the close-contact limit. In this way, we recover and clarify the various expressions that can be found in previous studies.

On mathematical modelling of gust response using the finite element method

Sváček, Petr, Horáček, Jaromír

Similarity:

In this paper the numerical approximation of aeroelastic response to sudden gust is presented. The fully coupled formulation of two dimensional incompressible viscous fluid flow over a flexibly supported structure is used. The flow is modelled with the system of Navier-Stokes equations written in Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian form and coupled with system of ordinary differential equations describing the airfoil vibrations with two degrees of freedom. The Navier-Stokes equations are spatially...

Analytical solution of rotationally symmetric Stokes flow near corners

Burda, Pavel, Novotný, Jaroslav, Šístek, Jakub

Similarity:

We present analytical solution of the Stokes problem in rotationally symmetric domains. This is then used to find the asymptotic behaviour of the solution in the vicinity of corners, also for Navier-Stokes equations. We apply this to construct very precise numerical finite element solution.
