Near-wall, three-dimensional fluid measurements for advanced and synchronized fluid-structure interaction characterization
Abstract
This proposal aims to enable very-near-wall fluid measurements of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) between a multitude of aerodynamic flows and modern metamaterials at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This measurement tool will couple to other experimental capabilities to create a one-of-a-kind measurement system for detailed fluid-structure interaction measurements to drive advancements to metamaterial flow control. The system will also be used to train students in this new interdisciplinary research area that is of growing interest to the DoD. The PI and co-PIs have a history of collaborating with AFRL and will leverage these relationships to facilitate technology transition to the DoD laboratories. The proposed equipment will directly advance multiple AFOSR programs, including the Unsteady Aerodynamics and Turbulent Flows program and Multiscale Structural Mechanics and Prognosis directorates.
