Plasma flow control of the tip vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing (2022)
Journal Article
Dong, L., Choi, K. S., & Wang, Y. (2022). Plasma flow control of the tip vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing. Physics of Fluids, 34(8), Article 087101. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0101110

Flow control of the tip vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing was carried out using the dielectric-barrier-discharge plasma actuators. The results indicate a large change in the aerodynamic forces by plasma flow control, where the lift coefficie...

Development and interaction of vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing under pitch-up motion (2022)
Journal Article
Dong, L., Choi, K.-S., Mao, X., & Wang, Y. (2022). Development and interaction of vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing under pitch-up motion. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 943, Article A42. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2022.451

The vortical structures over a thin rectangular wing with a very low aspect ratio of 0.277 were investigated in a wind tunnel at an effective Reynolds number of 3×106. When applying pitch-up motion pivoted at mid-chord, the maximum lift angle was inc... Read More about Development and interaction of vortices over a very low aspect-ratio wing under pitch-up motion.
