Summary: This experimental study investigates the role of upstream traveling waves in transonic buffet using BOS technique and particle image velocimetry. The experiments focus on the spanwise organization of the buffet phenomenon and revealed that the upstream traveling pressure waves propagate at a non-zero orientation. The analysis confirms the UTWs behave as acoustic waves, traveling at the speed of sound relative to the flow, and hints at modulation of their strength during the buffet cycle in support of the feedback-mechanism description of transonic buffet.

Summary: In this paper, a Physics-Assisted Variational Autoencoder is proposed to identify dominant features of transonic buffet, which combines unsupervised reduced-order modeling with additional physical information embedded via a buffet classifier. Statistical results reveal that the buffet state can be determined exactly with just one latent space when a proper weight of classifier is chosen. Based on this identification, the displacement thickness at 80% chordwise location is proposed as a metric for buffet prediction, achieving an accuracy of 98.5% in buffet state classification.

Summary: In this paper, a closed-loop control using an active shock control bump (SCB) has been proposed to suppress the buffet on a supercritical airfoil flying at transonic speeds. The control law is designed based on the lift coefficient as the feedback signal and the bump height as the control variable. Numerical simulations show that the buffet can be effectively suppressed by optimizing the control law parameters, namely the gain and the delay time. The active SCB has advantages over the reference active trailing edge flap, including less sensitivity to control law parameters and a shorter response time.

Summary: As modern transport aircraft cruise at transonic speeds, the challenge of shock buffet alleviation becomes crucial for civil transport research. This study investigates the use of sub-boundary layer scale period roughness to act as a virtual shock bump and enhance the buffet margin. The experimental results showed that such periodic roughness can bifurcate the shock wave and delay shock-induced separations, offering potential for extending the safe flight envelope.

Summary: This study experimentally investigated the self-sustained shock wave oscillations on a supercritical airfoil under various aerodynamic conditions. The results showed that the inversion of shock motion is a necessary but not sufficient condition for buffet onset. The buffet amplitude was smaller, and buffet onset occurred at higher angles of attack compared to previous literature. The analysis also revealed a sensitivity of buffet features to numerical and experimental parameters, while being virtually insensitive to boundary-layer suction and gap flow.

Summary: This study numerically investigates the transonic buffet phenomenon over a prescribed-pitching airfoil using a validated simulation approach. The results show that the lift fluctuations in the pitching case are larger than those in the fixed case, and the presence of shock wave interactions and boundary separation contribute to higher pressure and velocity fluctuation levels. The unsteady flow in the pitching case exhibits a more disordered pattern compared to the periodic shedding in the wake of the fixed case. The analysis also reveals strong interactions between the shock oscillations and Karman vortex structure.

Summary: Transonic buffet refers to self-sustained flow unsteadiness caused by shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction over airfoils and wings. It is classified into laminar or turbulent types based on the state of the boundary layer. In this study, large-eddy simulations are used to directly compare the two types and analyze their dynamic features. The results show that the essential dynamic features remain the same for both types, suggesting a common fundamental mechanism.

Summary: The study found that there was no significant chemical reaction between the coal component and polyacrylamide. Due to the porosity of the polyacrylamide coating adhered onto the surface of the pore, it has a significant sorption capacity for methane. However, as the amount of residue entering the pores increases, the porous structure of the polyacrylamide coating becomes denser, leading to a decrease in the overall sorption capacity of the "coal-polyacrylamide" system.

Summary: The joint planes in fractured rock mass have a significant influence on the deformation and failure mode of engineering rock mass. The effect of joint roughness and infill thickness on the shear characteristics of joints was studied through numerical simulation tests. The results showed that rock bolts improved the shear strength of infilled rock joints, increased the number of micro-cracks, and made the dilatation more obvious. The shear stress and normal displacement of unbolted or bolted infilled rock joints increased with increasing joint roughness and decreasing infill thickness.
