Title<\/strong>:Turbulence in open-channel flows: recent advances and implications for sediment transport, hydraulic resistance and flow-biota interactions<\/i><\/p>

Abstract<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/span>Open-channel flow (OCF, e.g., streams and rivers) occupies a special place in a family of turbulent flows. It may exhibit a set of properties that make this flow unique and exciting, i.e.: (1) flow boundaries (sedimentary bed and free surface) can be highly \u2018deformable\u2019 and dynamic, constantly changing in response to varying flow...... read more\u00a0<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Title<\/strong>:\u00a0Flow manipulation based on passive and localised fluid structure interactions<\/i><\/p>

Abstract<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/span>Surfaces covered by arrayed, slender, deformable, filamentous structures, anchored to a substrate and exposed to viscous flows are ubiquitous in nature, and increasingly seen in bio inspired technology. During this talk, two examples will be explored and discussed in details. The first one concerns the possibility of manipulating a bluff body wake using an array of elastic.... read more\u00a0<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Title<\/strong>:\u00a0Turbulence at rough topography in the deep ocean<\/i><\/p>

Abstract<\/strong>:<\/span>Turbulence is essential to maintain the observed stratification in the abyssal ocean and also strongly impacts the biogeochemical state of the ocean.\u00a0 Tidal flow over rough topography in the deep ocean generates internal gravity waves with a fraction of the wave energy breaking down into local<\/i> turbulence at the generation..... read more<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
