A novel method for boundary layer flow that uses asymptotics and the Wiener-Hopf technique (2024)
Thesis
Adamu, H. (2024). A novel method for boundary layer flow that uses asymptotics and the Wiener-Hopf technique. (Thesis). University of Salford

We consider the theory by (Chadwick, 2019) on the applications of Navier-Stokeslets (NSlets) by a Green’s integral distribution of fundamental solutions in boundary layer flow which we call BL-lets. This research investigates the application of the t... Read More about A novel method for boundary layer flow that uses asymptotics and the Wiener-Hopf technique.

An experimental test for the existence of the Euler wake velocity, validating Eulerlet theory by using a bluff body in a low-speed wind tunnel (2020)
Thesis
Chalasani, K. An experimental test for the existence of the Euler wake velocity, validating Eulerlet theory by using a bluff body in a low-speed wind tunnel. (Thesis). University of Salford

The application of manoeuvrability problems in aerodynamics mainly works for Reynolds average Navier-Stokes equations particularly for a uniform, steady flow past a fixed body. Further, consider large Reynolds number such that the flow is not turbule...

A novel boundary element method for low Reynolds number external flow of biological fluid dynamics (2020)
Thesis
Dang, B. A novel boundary element method for low Reynolds number external flow of biological fluid dynamics. (Thesis). University of Salford

Consider two dimensional low Reynolds number flow past a body. In this thesis, the problems of steady flow past a circular cylinder, steady flow past an elliptical cylinder, and the motion of a generic tail-like body are investigated. The theoretical...

An extension to thin aerofoil theory obtained by using eulerlets and oseenlets (2013)
Thesis
Kapoulas, A. An extension to thin aerofoil theory obtained by using eulerlets and oseenlets. (Thesis). University of Salford

An extension and theoretical underpinning of thin aerofoil theory is given. To enable
this requires first a novel mathematical representation for a new matched asymptotic
approach. The new matched asymptotic approach is to match near - field Euler... Read More about An extension to thin aerofoil theory obtained by using eulerlets and oseenlets.

Experimental verification and computational comparison of an oseen flow slender body theory (2010)
Thesis
Khan, H. Experimental verification and computational comparison of an oseen flow slender body theory. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This project further develops recent work which proposes a new theory that predicts
the forces on slender bodies, and slender and thin wings. A steady, incompressible uniform
field for high Reynolds numbers (although aerodynamically low-speed) is a... Read More about Experimental verification and computational comparison of an oseen flow slender body theory.

An investigation into inviscid theory applied to manoeuvring bodies in fluid (2005)
Thesis
Hatam, A. An investigation into inviscid theory applied to manoeuvring bodies in fluid. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This thesis focuses on the appropriateness of the inviscid potential flow model for determining
the manoeuvring characteristics of a body moving through fluid. This model is
widespread in many key applications for ships, submarines, aircraft, rocke... Read More about An investigation into inviscid theory applied to manoeuvring bodies in fluid.

Manoeuvring characteristics of slender bodies through fluid (2004)
Thesis
Fishwick, N. Manoeuvring characteristics of slender bodies through fluid. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This research addresses the difficulties in determining the manoeuvring characteristics
of a slender body through a fluid. This work has direct applicability in many areas
of hydrodynamics and aerodynamics. For example the manoeuvring of ships and... Read More about Manoeuvring characteristics of slender bodies through fluid.

A novel optimised design using slots for flow control and high-lift performance of UCAVs
Thesis
Ali, U. (in press). A novel optimised design using slots for flow control and high-lift performance of UCAVs. (Thesis). University of Salford

In this study, two UCAV planforms are considered based around generic 40° edge-aligned configurations. One configuration has a moderate leading and trailing edges sweep of Λ = 40°, while the other configuration is highly swept with a leading-edge swe...

The diffraction of monsters from complex apertures
Thesis
Middleton-Spencer, H. (in press). The diffraction of monsters from complex apertures. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The research presented in this MSc thesis is concerned with understanding the way incoming electromagnetic waves are diffracted by various different types of scattering screens. These classes of problem are fundamental in the laser optics community,... Read More about The diffraction of monsters from complex apertures.

An investigation of the Oseen differential equations for the boundary layer
Thesis
Darghoth, R. (in press). An investigation of the Oseen differential equations for the boundary layer. (Thesis). University of Salford

The thesis is on an investigation of the Oseen partial differential equations for the problem of laminar boundary layer flow for the steady two-dimensional case of an incompressible, viscous fluid with the boundary conditions that the velocity at the...
