Self-sustained dynamics and forced resonant oscillations in flows: cross-junction jets and sloshing liquids

In engineering, oscillatory instabilities and resonances are often considered undesirable flow features and measures are taken to avoid them. This may include avoiding certain parametric regions or implementing control and mitigation strategies. However, t ...
