Design Optimization of eVTOL Propellers using a Viscous-Extension Discrete Vortex Method
Potential flow theory remains a cornerstone of unsteady aerodynamics due to its computational efficiency in modeling complex flow phenomena.

A minimal wake-vortex model explains formation flight of flapping birds
Collective patterns of motion emerge across biological taxa: insects swarm, fish school, and birds flock. In particular, large migratory birds form strikingly ordered V-shaped formations, which experi…

X-VORTEX: Spatio-Temporal Contrastive Learning for Wake Vortex Trajectory Forecasting
Wake vortices are strong, coherent air turbulences created by aircraft, and they pose a major safety and capacity challenge for air traffic management.

Critical velocity for wake vortex generation behind a plate in a superflow
We study theoretically the critical velocity $U_c$ for quantum vortex generation by a thin plate-shaped obstacle moving through a uniform Bose-Einstein condensate.

Transient growth of a wake vortex and its initiation via inertial particles
The transient dynamics of a wake vortex, modelled as a strong swirling $q$-vortex, are investigated with a focus on optimal transient growth driven by continuous eigenmodes associated with continuous …

Radar detection of wake vortex behind the aircraft: the detection range problem
In this study, we showcased the detection of the wake vortex produced by a medium aircraft at distances exceeding 10 km using an X-band pulse-Doppler radar.
