Research\ Interactions between Micromechanoreceptors & Wall Turbulence

Coupled interactions between hair-like micromechanoreceptors & wall turbulence (commenced Summer 2022)

Funding agency: National Science Foundation (NSF), Award no. 2224849

Students: Pratik Deshpande (PhD candidate), Greeshma Daniel (PhD candidate) Keyu Vadaliya (undergraduate), Graham Holt (undergraduate), Samuel Mueller (undergraduate)

Goals

Understand the interactions between hair-like High aspect ratio micropillars (HAMuP) and wall turbulence - What effect does the HAMuP properties i.e., arrangement, geometry, stiffness etc. have?
What role does this interaction play in the performance of HAMuP as distributed sensors?
