TRAIL part 2: A comprehensive assessment of ice particle fall speed parametrisations (2020)
Journal Article
McCorquodale, M. W., & Westbrook, C. D. (2020). TRAIL part 2: A comprehensive assessment of ice particle fall speed parametrisations. Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 147(734), 605-626. https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.3936

Results are presented from a comprehensive experimental campaign studying the aerodynamics of 3D-printed analogues of ice particles. Measurements of the drag coefficient of the analogues were acquired by using a novel experimental approach to digital...

TRAIL: A novel approach for studying the aerodynamics of ice particles (2020)
Journal Article
McCorquodale, M. W., & Westbrook, C. D. (2020). TRAIL: A novel approach for studying the aerodynamics of ice particles. Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 147(734), 589-604. https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.3935

A novel experimental approach for studying the aerodynamics of ice particles is presented. The Trajectory Reconstruction Algorithm implemented through Image anaLysis (TRAIL) produces digital reconstructions of the trajectory and orientation of 3D-pri...

Experimental study of oscillating-grid turbulence interacting with a solid boundary (2017)
Journal Article
McCorquodale, M. W., & Munro, R. J. (2017). Experimental study of oscillating-grid turbulence interacting with a solid boundary. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 813, 768-798. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2016.843

© 2017 Cambridge University Press. The interaction between oscillating-grid turbulence and a solid, impermeable boundary (positioned below, and aligned parallel to, the grid) is studied experimentally. Instantaneous velocity measurements, obtained us... Read More about Experimental study of oscillating-grid turbulence interacting with a solid boundary.
