Our objective in this project was to derive a mathematically exact theory of unsteady fluid flow separation. We have obtained analytic formulae for the location and shape of separation profiles in terms of measurable, wall-based physical quantities. These formulae can now be used to design feedback controllers that alter, destroy, or create separation. Our main achievements are as follows: (1) We have developed a mathematical theory of unsteady three-dimensional separation for flows with a steady mean component. (2) We have developed a theory of moving unsteady separation for flows with a time-varying mean component. (3) We have developed a theory of separation for two-dimensional flows with a slip boundary ((1)-(3) above cover no-slip boundaries) (4) We also conducted experiments to prove existence of a new three-dimensional separation pattern (separation along a limit cycle of the wall shear field) first predicted by our 3D steady separation theory.
This textbook is aimed at newcomers to nonlinear dynamics and chaos, especially students taking a first course in the subject. The presentation stresses analytical methods, concrete examples, and geometric intuition. The theory is developed systematically, starting with first-order differential equations and their bifurcations, followed by phase plane analysis, limit cycles and their bifurcations, and culminating with the Lorenz equations, chaos, iterated maps, period doubling, renormalization, fractals, and strange attractors.
This is the first textbook on a generally applicable control strategy for turbulence and other complex nonlinear systems. The approach of the book employs powerful methods of machine learning for optimal nonlinear control laws. This machine learning control (MLC) is motivated and detailed in Chapters 1 and 2. In Chapter 3, methods of linear control theory are reviewed. In Chapter 4, MLC is shown to reproduce known optimal control laws for linear dynamics (LQR, LQG). In Chapter 5, MLC detects and exploits a strongly nonlinear actuation mechanism of a low-dimensional dynamical system when linear control methods are shown to fail. Experimental control demonstrations from a laminar shear-layer to turbulent boundary-layers are reviewed in Chapter 6, followed by general good practices for experiments in Chapter 7. The book concludes with an outlook on the vast future applications of MLC in Chapter 8. Matlab codes are provided for easy reproducibility of the presented results. The book includes interviews with leading researchers in turbulence control (S. Bagheri, B. Batten, M. Glauser, D. Williams) and machine learning (M. Schoenauer) for a broader perspective. All chapters have exercises and supplemental videos will be available through YouTube.
