  Doctoral Research :“On transitional characteristics of unsteady wakes in flow past axi-symmetric bodies”. The major objectives that where addressed in the dissertation include:• Study the wake (flow structures and transitions) and dynamic (hydrodynamic forces) characteristics of two/three dimensional flow behind axi-symmetric rotating bluff bodies with variations in parameters such as inter-cylinder spacing, Reynolds number, rotational speed, blockage ratios, rotational oscillation frequency and rotational oscillation amplitude.• Investigations on the temporal evaluation of wake with control parameters using sophisticated analysis techniques that are capable of evaluating non-linear and non-stationary transitions. The techniques used include Recurrence analysis, Dynamic Mode Decomposition and Hilbert spectral analysis.• Identification of parametric bands that correspond to wake transitions, drag reductions and mixing enhancement.• Comparison of three-dimensional flow simulation results obtained from two different flow solvers, one based on Finite Volume Method (FVM) and another using Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). Further studies were carried out using LBM due to observed advantages. Show less
