Abstract

At transitional Reynolds numbers, an elastically supported airfoil oscillating in pitch can undergo laminar separation flutter (LSF), which is characterized by self-sustained small-amplitude oscillations. To gain insight into the mechanism of LSF, we conduct wind tunnel tests for [Formula: see text] to investigate the LSF response of a freely rotating NACA0015 airfoil with various structural natural frequencies and positions of the elastic axis. The experimental results show that the dominant mode of flow around the NACA0015 airfoil abruptly changes at [Formula: see text], resulting in a change in the trend of LSF response. Then, an aeroelastic model is constructed to explain how the instability of LSF arises. This model can accurately predict the LSF frequency of airfoils with various structural natural frequencies. Moreover, based on the aeroelastic model, we perform linear stability analysis on the aeroelastic system and propose the instability criterion for LSF as [Formula: see text]. This instability criterion is identical to that for rotational galloping of square cylinder, indicating that LSF and rotational galloping of square cylinder are essentially the same aeroelastic phenomenon that appears in different aerodynamic profiles. This finding identifies the underlying cause for the remarkable similarities between the two phenomena.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
