    Motor equivalent strategies in the production of /u/ in perturbed speech

    No full text
    Several articulatory strategies are available during the production of /u/, all resulting in a similar acoustic output. /u/ has two main constrictions, at the velum and at the lips. A perturbation of either constriction can be compensated at the other one, e.g wider constriction at the velum by more lip protrusion, wider lip opening by more tongue retraction. This study investigates whether speakers use this relation under perturbation. Six speakers were provided with palatal prostheses which were worn for two weeks. Speakers were instructed to make a serious attempt to produce normal speech. Their speech was recorded via EMA and acoustics several times over the adaptation period. Formant values of /u/-productions were measured. Velar constriction width and lip protrusion were estimated. For four speakers a correlation between constriction width and lip protrusion was found. A negative correlation between lip protrusion and F1 or F2 could sometimes be observed, but no correlation occurred between constriction size and either of the formants. The results show that under perturbation speakers use motor equivalent strategies in order to adapt. The correlation between constriction size and lip protrusion is stronger than in studies investigating unperturbed speech. This could be because under perturbation speakers are inclined to try out several strategies in order to reach the acoustic target and the co-variability might thus be greater

    Comparison of winding-number sequences for symmetric and asymmetric oscillatory systems

    No full text
    The bifurcation sets of symmetric and asymmetric periodically driven oscillators are investigated and classified by means of winding numbers. It is shown that periodic windows within chaotic regions are forming winding-number sequences on different levels. These sequences can be described by a simple formula that makes it possible to predict winding numbers at bifurcation points. Symmetric and asymmetric systems follow similar rules for the development of winding numbers within different sequences and these sequences can be combined into a single general rule. The role of the two distinct period-doubling cascades is investigated in the light of the winding-number sequences discovered. Examples are taken from the double-well Duffing oscillator, a special two-parameter Duffing oscillator, and a bubble oscillator

    A Dynamic Subfilter-scale Stress Model for Large Eddy Simulations Based on Physical Flow Scales

    No full text
    We propose a new definition of the length scale in an eddy-viscosity model for large-eddy simulations (LES). This formulation extends and generalizes a previous proposal [Piomelli, Rouhi and Geurts, Proc. ETMM10, 2014], in which the LES length scale was expressed in terms of the integral length-scale of turbulence determined by the flow characteristics and explicitly decoupled from the simulation grid; this approach was named Integral Length-Scale Approximation (ILSA). As in the original ILSA, the model coefficient was determined by the user, and required to maintain a desired contribution of the unresolved, subfilter scales (SFS) to the global transport. We propose a local formulation (local ILSA) in which the model coefficient is local in space, allowing a precise control over SFS activity as a function of location. This new formulation preserves the properties of the global model; application to channel flow and backward-facing step verifies its features and accuracy

    Large-eddy simulation of a separated flow with a sub-filter scale model based on the integral length-scale

    No full text
    A new sub-filter scale model for large-eddy simulations, which uses a length-scale proportional to the integral scale of the turbulence instead of the grid resolution to parametrize the modelled stresses, will be assessed in the prediction of the flow of a boundary-layer over a rough surface, which includes separation and reattachment

    Near Wall PIV-Measurements on the Windward Slope of a Hill

    No full text
    The turbulent flow over periodic hills was measured near to the wall, using planar Particle-Image-Velocimetry (PIV) at high spatial resolution. Our focus is on the near wall turbulence structure on the windward slope of the hill. For large-eddy simulation (LES) we suspect that, if this was not predicted accurately, it affects the prediction of the velocity profiles over the hill crest which in turn will affect the recirculation length downstream of the hill. Regarding the time averaged velocities, we were able to resolve the linear viscous region of the boundary layer. The velocity distribution and also the Reynolds stress does not comply with the law of the wall as it is valid for a turbulent boundary layer at equilibrium

    Energy dissipation and flux laws for unsteady turbulence

    No full text
    Direct Numerical Simulations of spatially periodic unsteady turbulence show that the high Reynolds number scalings of the instantaneous energy dissipation rate and interscale energy flux at intermediate wavenumbers are qualitatively different from the well-known u(t)3/L(t)u'(t)^{3}/L(t) cornerstone scalings of equilibrium turbulence where u(t)u'(t) and L(t)L(t) are time-dependent rms velocity and integral length-scales. Instead, they both scale as U0L0u(t)2/L(t)2U_{0}L_{0}\:u'(t)^2/L(t)^2 where L0L_0 and U0U_0 are length and velocity scales characterizing initial/overall unsteady turbulence conditions

    Direct numerical simulation of turbulent Couette-Poiseuille flow with zero skin friction

    No full text
    The near-wall scaling of mean velocity U(y) is addressed for the case of zero skin friction on one wall of a fully turbulent channel flow. The present DNS results can be added to the evidence in support of the conjecture that U is proportional to √yw in the region just above the wall at which the mean shear dU/dy = 0
