When a few bubbles are entrained in a travelling vortex ring, it has been shown that, even at extremely low volume loadings, their presence can significantly affect the structure of the vortex core (Sridhar & Katz, J. Fl ...

Combining geometric mechanics theory, laboratory robotic experiment, and numerical simulation, we study the locomotion in granular media of the simplest noninertial swimmer, the Purcell three-link swimmer. Using granular ...

This paper introduces a new perspective/direction on assessing and encouraging creativity in concept design for application in engineering design education and industry. This research presents several methods used to a ...
