WEBVTT

00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:29.818
Okay Thanksgiving <unk> Yeah. I'm very glad to be here. This
is a very, very interdisciplinary and interesting summer

00:00:29.818 --> 00:00:39.746
school apologies for not being able to attend the very
first part. But I was on holidays with my wife. And if I

00:00:39.746 --> 00:00:46.629
cancelled those holidays, I would have probably reached
the limits of life of my marriage. So apologies for that.

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:59.529
Another apology is I am an engineer <unk> how many engineers
are in the room. Okay? <unk> Okay, very good. So what we

00:00:59.529 --> 00:01:08.981
are going to talk about is is, again, a very interdisciplinary
subject, which is <unk> and you will have the view from

00:01:08.981 --> 00:01:18.330
from an engineer like me. So I'm trying to convince you
today that limits of life, non dimensional analysis <unk>

00:01:18.330 --> 00:01:26.970
studies that really belong today to the ecology and the
science really actually have a very important engineering

00:01:26.970 --> 00:01:36.109
application. I started working on eco hydraulics, so they
interact for me. <unk> Will give a better definition later on.

00:01:36.109 --> 00:01:44.838
But for me, <unk> the way I intend it is the interaction
between hydraulics and fish. That is what I do. And that is

00:01:44.838 --> 00:01:53.401
what we are going to talk today. It is not the case <unk>
is a much wider subject. But again, I was saying I started

00:01:53.401 --> 00:02:02.239
working on these, say, five, six years ago, when I went to
Southampton, and I started working with a fish biologist, a

00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:09.879
fish biologist, who works in Faculty of Engineering, which
is quite unusual. His name is Paul Camp. And we started

00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:16.580
chatting together. I was literally dragged into into the
subject. And I really loved it. It is a fascinating subject.

00:02:16.590 --> 00:02:23.630
But again, it is very interdisciplinary. I was doing the
hydrogennamics part. I do fluid mechanics in my in my research.

00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:31.313
So my knowledge of biology, of biology, physiology <unk> I
learned it a little bit, but clearly <unk> I always needed

00:02:31.313 --> 00:02:39.993
Paul to back me up. I'm going to show you something today
about fish biology and fish physiology. But I mean, it is not

00:02:39.993 --> 00:02:49.382
exactly my subject, but I'll try to call it as good as I can
<unk> we have three hours to spend today. Gabby called them

00:02:49.382 --> 00:02:59.754
a lecturing marathon <unk> so the lectures are split in two
slots. There is one slot this morning when that will cover

00:02:59.754 --> 00:03:08.178
general definition of <unk> life in moving fluids and will
be essentially a background lecture covering all the topics

00:03:08.178 --> 00:03:16.889
<unk> then we will be needed to better understand the lecture
this morning this afternoon. Sorry <unk> Which, is about

00:03:16.889 --> 00:03:25.882
research some sort of research topics. I'm working on, and I
would like to to share with you. So again, this morning we

00:03:25.882 --> 00:03:33.374
are going to talk about <unk> and life in moving through it.
There would be a first subslot, which I call the lecture

00:03:33.374 --> 00:03:38.079
one. I <unk> which is an introduction to
eco hydraulics and some typical subjects.

00:03:38.430 --> 00:03:45.359
In the second part, after a break, we will talk about
swimming and living in <unk> complex environments.

00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:54.483
I think the first sub slot is going to be shorter, then the
second will will play it by the year. Okay, but feel free to

00:03:54.483 --> 00:04:00.550
ask questions to interrupt me any time. If you have
curiosities on anything else? no problem at all.

00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:13.352
So an introduction to <unk> and fish locomotion. What is
eco hydraulics? well as the word suggests, this is an

00:04:13.352 --> 00:04:21.900
interdisciplinary subject. The interface between ecology and
hydraulics. Essentially, we are trying to investigate how

00:04:21.900 --> 00:04:31.350
hydrogennamics, mainly an open channel flows influence ecosystems,
essentially <unk> and I really like the definition of

00:04:31.350 --> 00:04:38.020
catapulties who say the <unk> deals
with the trilogy of of subjects.

00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:46.320
One is <unk> an ecosystem restoration including a dumb removal
and wetland station. Dumb removal now is a hot topic.

00:04:46.329 --> 00:04:52.657
Nobody really knows how to remove efficiently and sustainable
of dams @unoise@ uh, because they represent um um, a

00:04:52.657 --> 00:04:59.373
barrier for fish migration. For other, many other problems.
They @unoise@ they. Need to be removed in many parts of the

00:04:59.373 --> 00:05:06.329
world, like in Brazil, in Canada, there are works in
the U S. There are um works in that in that field.

00:05:06.610 --> 00:05:13.777
The other typical subject is ecological flows <unk>
essentially, it is the way of defining what is the flow that

00:05:13.777 --> 00:05:20.782
organisms like in rivers <unk> what defines good ecosystems
ecosystem from an either dynamic point of view. And then

00:05:20.782 --> 00:05:29.358
there is the last subject, which is today's focus, which
is passage systems for migration of fish, another aquatic

00:05:29.358 --> 00:05:39.113
organism. Forget about the other aquatic organisms. We were
going to talk about about fish. That is what this lecture

00:05:39.113 --> 00:05:50.363
will will actually cover. And there you go. You probably all
know better than me. Fish migrates and move in rivers or

00:05:50.363 --> 00:05:53.840
from the ocean to the rivers and vice versa.

00:05:54.199 --> 00:06:03.914
And the the big issue as I was introducing earlier on is the
rivers are heavily fragmented, did by Manmaid structures

00:06:03.914 --> 00:06:15.509
<unk> okay. Weirs, dams, and these structures represent
barriers to their movement so that we are essentially impeding

00:06:15.509 --> 00:06:24.450
fish to <unk> in fisher production. So they are not able
to reach the habitat they they use for spawning and and so

00:06:24.450 --> 00:06:32.978
forth. And this is a big problem in is causing the depression
of fish stocks around the world, the stocks of wheels are

00:06:32.978 --> 00:06:40.458
are depleting really, really, really fast <unk> which is a
big problem commercially as well as from an ecosystem point

00:06:40.458 --> 00:06:49.434
of view <unk> it is ah, it is a big problem, especially felt
and well founded in Northern Europe, not so much now in

00:06:49.434 --> 00:06:58.057
Italy, where I work. Ah, we are a bit behind. But ah, it
is gaining momentum also also also there. Um, there is a

00:06:58.057 --> 00:07:06.250
picture here on the on your right hand side here, showing
some salmons jumping over a waterfall. So you may say, okay,

00:07:06.250 --> 00:07:13.745
these barriers, you know, the fish are very, very strong.
They can jump and overcome them. Well, certainly they cannot

00:07:13.745 --> 00:07:21.650
overcome dance like these. These are really, really large
and represent imperable barriers for, for, for fish.

00:07:21.850 --> 00:07:30.582
As you know, dams are used very often for either power purposes.
So whenever fish migrating either upstream or might get

00:07:30.582 --> 00:07:38.758
it in downstream. So upstream means going from the ocean to
the to the spawning habitat upstream indeed, or or swimming

00:07:38.758 --> 00:07:47.456
from upstream to a meaning towards " ah " towards the ocean.
That is um. Whenever they do that, they actually Ah. They

00:07:47.456 --> 00:07:56.405
encounter threats because they might actually take the spillways
and make a big, a big jump here that would kill them,

00:07:56.405 --> 00:08:05.355
or they actually may swim through the through the turbines of
the of the hydropower station, and which would most likely

00:08:05.355 --> 00:08:12.147
kill them as well. So besides representing a barrier, they
are also a threat <unk> another typical structure that

00:08:12.147 --> 00:08:20.986
represent a barrier are weirs. This is we are in on the
river paw in Tuin, where I live. And as you can see, on the

00:08:20.986 --> 00:08:30.118
downstream side of the weird. There are very a fast and
shallow currents that prevent fish to actually swim <unk> so

00:08:30.118 --> 00:08:39.548
they are not even able to overcome this sort of obstacles.
These structures cannot be well at the time at the moment

00:08:39.548 --> 00:08:47.103
cannot be easily removed, because they, they serve important
purposes. As I say, dams are used to produce electricity,

00:08:47.103 --> 00:08:56.900
and we are really thirsty for energy worldwide. We are are
used for usually <unk> purposes. So they are used to measure

00:08:56.900 --> 00:09:04.820
discharge in rivers, which is extremely important for water
management purposes. So some of them that are worldwide.

00:09:04.830 --> 00:09:12.688
Some of them are recognized to be redundant so they can
be removed <unk> so diminishes that would diminish the

00:09:12.688 --> 00:09:20.613
fragmentation of the old river, but some others cannot be
removed. So we need to find solutions that allow these

00:09:20.613 --> 00:09:29.739
structures to be fish friendly. Essentially, we need to
provide passage for for fish. There is a nice sort of sketch

00:09:29.739 --> 00:09:31.959
here that explains the problem.

00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:42.006
Every time we have a barrier, which, like in this case, in
here, we need to provide ways for the fish to overcome the

00:09:42.006 --> 00:09:49.665
barrier. Imagine, let us assume this is we are talking about
upstream migrations of fish. Come here and want to go

00:09:49.665 --> 00:09:58.300
upstream against the floor. There are two ways. Essentially,
broadly speaking, although this is a bit brutal, but either

00:09:58.300 --> 00:10:10.960
we build a a natural sort of a natural canal that a bypass
it allows to to link the upstream in the downstream part of

00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:20.075
the other around the barrier, or we actually can build a
concrete structures, essentially some baffled channels were

00:10:20.075 --> 00:10:29.696
usually quite steep, where these buffals, these roughness
elements, are used to decrease the float and to increase the

00:10:29.696 --> 00:10:40.598
flow depths, and therefore to allow the fish to swim, to rise
these. They are called <unk> or fish passes <unk> <unk> in

00:10:40.598 --> 00:10:50.964
the design of this passes the questions and the problems we
have to address are, first of all, how do we attract fish to

00:10:50.964 --> 00:10:52.259
the fish pass.

00:10:53.000 --> 00:11:02.120
That is how, how, how can we let them know? look, you have
to go there, not there go there. You know, <unk> when we

00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:10.482
drive we have signs in the road. That is easy, but fish don't
recognize exactly arrows and stuff. So we need to attract

00:11:10.482 --> 00:11:17.637
them there. <unk> And how do we design fish passes? that is
another engineering questions, meaning okay <unk> usually

00:11:17.637 --> 00:11:24.724
these barriers are associated with head difference, which
are quite substantial, as we have seen in the dumb picture

00:11:24.724 --> 00:11:33.597
earlier on. So usually we have to build, like in this case,
if you look on the right inside, you know, <unk> channels

00:11:33.597 --> 00:11:40.560
buffal channels that are quite steep. So presumably they
will be characterized with the high velocities. Can fish

00:11:40.560 --> 00:11:49.471
sustain these high velocities? can they actually swim into
into these flows? how does turbulence and the mean flow and

00:11:49.471 --> 00:11:58.848
the <unk> of the flow within the channel effect swimming
<unk> form so that they can actually rise. Shall I do it a

00:11:58.848 --> 00:12:07.466
longer fish pass <unk> but less steep or a steeper fish pass,
but short. So that depends on the stamina of the fish on

00:12:07.466 --> 00:12:16.285
the <unk> fitness of the fish water temperature and many other
things. That is a very difficult ecological engineering

00:12:16.285 --> 00:12:17.870
problem.

00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:30.704
We have to address, which really pertains very well with
issues related to dumb and hydropower is, how do we repel fish

00:12:30.704 --> 00:12:41.321
from dangerous areas. We have seen that we have to track fish
to fish, pass <unk> but we also have to find ways to repel

00:12:41.321 --> 00:12:49.548
fish from the denters are, is like spillways like intakes
for the turbines, or like screens. Screens are essentially

00:12:49.548 --> 00:12:59.827
<unk> filters that that allow do not allow debris and other
things to go into the water intakes of the turbines. These

00:12:59.827 --> 00:13:06.952
screens are extremely dangerous. I'll show you some pictures
this afternoon. I suppose <unk> where eels and many fish

00:13:06.952 --> 00:13:15.448
get impinged, and they are not able to swim back <unk> so
that is a killer for for fish. We have find ways to repell

00:13:15.448 --> 00:13:18.460
fish from screens, from spillways and so forth.

00:13:19.669 --> 00:13:28.764
In summary, it is a big problem in order to adapt problems
of fish pass to allow fish migration and fish movement. We

00:13:28.764 --> 00:13:37.129
need to understand what attracts and water repels fish while
migrating. And this belong to the world of fish behavior,

00:13:37.129 --> 00:13:45.383
animal behavior in general, <unk> and in this context,
there is quite a strong literature now and evidence that

00:13:45.383 --> 00:13:54.072
hydrogennamics flu and seem to play really a key role in
determining the fish behavior at these small scales, in

00:13:54.072 --> 00:14:01.160
proximity of these structures. Fish behavior is dictated by
many things. You know, they are living organisms. So there

00:14:01.160 --> 00:14:08.255
are curious fish. There are less cutest fish, scary scared
fish @unoise@ if we are hungry and they are looking for food

00:14:08.255 --> 00:14:14.711
@unoise@ uh fish are tired, the fish are very fit. So
everything @unoise@ uh fish behavior in general is extremely

00:14:14.711 --> 00:14:17.610
complex and depends on a huge number of variables.

00:14:17.950 --> 00:14:26.903
As far as migration is concerned, however, it seems the
hydrogennamics plays a key role the way they respond to

00:14:26.903 --> 00:14:35.408
hydrogennamics determine determines where they go essentially,
and whether they go to the fish pass, or whether they get

00:14:35.408 --> 00:14:44.808
trimmed into the turbines % um the second. Okay, there
should be a two here. Not one, but doesn't matter. How do we

00:14:44.808 --> 00:14:52.553
facilitate swimming in fish passes. And this belonged to
the world of fish locomotion, which is belongs to a huge

00:14:52.553 --> 00:15:01.945
literature. Okay, there is a lot since 40s. I suppose there
were maybe the sixties there were. There were models trying

00:15:01.945 --> 00:15:12.614
to reproduce and to understand fish locomotion and more for
biometric purposes and to to get inspired design underwater

00:15:12.614 --> 00:15:14.859
vehicles and so forth.

00:15:14.970 --> 00:15:20.990
But it also has applications, as we
have seen in ecological contacts.

00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:30.369
And we will see that swimming in fish passes is not only
about mean velocities. Okay, you know, @unoise@ Ah, you have

00:15:30.369 --> 00:15:38.837
learned probably. Ah, you know, from your background, or in
the summer school, the drag of of any object really is is it

00:15:38.837 --> 00:15:47.135
depends on the square of the velocity. If we are in the.
Let us call inertia regime <unk> but it is not only that

00:15:47.135 --> 00:15:54.028
turbulence size of a this influence or may not influence. We
still don't know the the swimming performance of fish. We

00:15:54.028 --> 00:16:01.195
will see some examples this morning <unk> so we have fish
behavior and <unk> fish locomotion has two microscopic areas

00:16:01.195 --> 00:16:10.129
of study to address the problem of fish pass. And there there
you go @unoise@ um. When I say fish behavior, I just want

00:16:10.129 --> 00:16:16.970
to stress the fact that, ah, some species migrate and move
individually. Some others migrate and move collectively.

00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:25.694
And ah, fish behavior at the collective scale is, is, is,
is yet another discipline of of Ah complexity sciences

00:16:25.694 --> 00:16:34.636
@unoise@ um collective behavior is that <unk> there is a lot
to talk about. There is no time to talk about collective

00:16:34.636 --> 00:16:43.173
behavior in Ah today. But I do work on that un collective
behavior of fish. It is a fascinating subject. So if you are

00:16:43.173 --> 00:16:52.930
curious to know more about that. We can talk later on, going
back to the microscopic picture. We have fish behavior and

00:16:52.930 --> 00:17:02.021
fish locomotion to address the problem of fish pass. We
need two more mm. Let us say a knowledge of of two more Ah

00:17:02.021 --> 00:17:12.098
variables. One is, of course, hydrogennamics and turbulence
plays a key role, and the other one is flow sensing, as we

00:17:12.098 --> 00:17:22.481
will see in a few minutes. Fishes are living a sensors of
pressure and velocity. It is really incredible how they are

00:17:22.481 --> 00:17:31.610
able to sense the flow around them, and clearly what they
sense laughter, so dictate the behavior <unk> so. Whatever

00:17:31.610 --> 00:17:39.617
they they feel influence their choice of what to do. And
this is fairly, fairly intuitive. Hydrogennamics, of course,

00:17:39.617 --> 00:17:45.484
influences fish locomotion and fish locomotion, meaning
swimming ability, swimming performance, and that clearly

00:17:45.484 --> 00:17:55.549
influences fish behavior as well. A fish will never go to
to a fast current if he is not able to sustain the current.

00:17:56.019 --> 00:18:05.918
Hydrogennamics also influences flow sensing <unk> so this <unk>
let us call them <unk> physiological sensor they have in

00:18:05.918 --> 00:18:14.955
their body. @unoise@ can be um can be fooled by turbines. Okay,
so turbans is a noisy <unk> represent a noisy signal for

00:18:14.955 --> 00:18:21.728
them that can prevent them to actually detect meanwhileastic
gradients @unoise@ or or microscopic properties of the flow

00:18:21.728 --> 00:18:28.753
around them that actually would drive their decision that <unk>
that behavior so. Hydrogennamics <unk> in general can be

00:18:28.753 --> 00:18:36.782
can influence a lot flow senses and in turn, free fish
behavior. So this big picture is a system of interconnected

00:18:36.782 --> 00:18:46.183
blocks. This morning, in this first slot, we are going to
talk, learn a little bit @unoise@ ah. More about the fish

00:18:46.183 --> 00:18:55.781
locomotion and and flow sensing by fish @unoise@ ok <unk> i'm
going to go really. I would say a very intuitive level. We

00:18:55.781 --> 00:19:04.739
will keep it very, very, very easy and sweet <unk> okay, let
us talk about fish locomotion. Well, this is a huge world.

00:19:04.750 --> 00:19:14.121
Uh. Fish fishes come with different size, shape, uh swimming
abilities and so forth, but overall < laugh > Let us take

00:19:14.121 --> 00:19:26.017
this as A as A as a template for fish. You know of this, of
these shape. There is a <unk> <unk> in here in the tale of

00:19:26.017 --> 00:19:38.172
the fish <unk> the coward Finn is used as an air foil as a
sail. Let us say so. The the zigzaging of the of the tail and

00:19:38.172 --> 00:19:49.155
the cattle fen generates these lifts and drug forces moving
that vary in direction and magnitude during the excursion of

00:19:49.155 --> 00:20:00.171
the <unk> in its Ah zigzagin pattern. And overall, these lifts
and rock forces generate a positive thrust that overcomes

00:20:00.171 --> 00:20:10.309
the drag of the fish, which is mainly skin fiction. When a
swains there <unk> <unk> <unk> there is no <unk> if if the

00:20:10.309 --> 00:20:17.774
fish was steady and straight <unk> you would see no separation
of the boundary layers. So the only source of drug or

00:20:17.774 --> 00:20:25.612
flow resistance would be the friction between the skin of the
fish and the flow itself <unk> okay <unk> so overall this

00:20:25.612 --> 00:20:34.186
catalyst is responsible for the movement of fish along a
longitude in a direction of a velocity. You @unoise@ % um the

00:20:34.186 --> 00:20:46.220
lateral fines or the other fines are usually used as to
stabilize the fish in in water <unk> so that is how it works.

00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:56.179
The interesting bit is um. These movements of the <unk> are
used then to uh, generate different swimming activities.

00:20:56.190 --> 00:21:06.501
Okay, you can discern between cruising activity, which is,
uh, when the fish, uh, can swim for hours, maintaining this

00:21:06.501 --> 00:21:16.494
regime of swimming for hours. And this swimming cause no
major physiological change in the organisms, in the fish

00:21:16.494 --> 00:21:24.806
itself. So sort of a walk <unk> then there is the burst
activity, the burst activity, which is ecologically, extremely

00:21:24.806 --> 00:21:33.401
um, eh important, and most important for an engineering point
of view is when the fish essentially mm runs, goes really,

00:21:33.401 --> 00:21:39.950
really fast to overcome some very fast current,
or to escape from a predator, for example.

00:21:40.250 --> 00:21:48.541
And this requires a sustain and intense effort that cannot
be maintained, usually for more than @unoise@ um few seconds

00:21:48.541 --> 00:21:55.947
to tens of seconds. Okay, that depends on many, many things.
We are going to see this very, very soon @unoise@ among,

00:21:55.947 --> 00:22:01.958
which there is also water temperature. Sure @unoise@ ah,
usually when it is very, very cold. Fish are more lazy when it

00:22:01.958 --> 00:22:08.799
is hotter @unoise@ the water is is warmer sorry. They are
much more active and able to do @unoise@ ah to to swim a lot

00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:18.092
faster. There is something in between called sustained activity
<unk> which, has a very blurry definition, and it is not

00:22:18.092 --> 00:22:28.237
very relevant. In my opinion, what really I'm interested in,
and I think has a lot of ecological and engineering value

00:22:28.237 --> 00:22:36.807
is the definition of birth activity or maximum speed. Ok <unk>
this is important for the design of fish passes that are

00:22:36.807 --> 00:22:43.894
usually characterized by very steep slopes and fast currents.
So that is what we need to to know about fish. What is the

00:22:43.894 --> 00:22:51.444
maximum speed they can, they can reach. And for how long
if I know their maximum speed, and for how long they can

00:22:51.444 --> 00:22:59.919
sustain it. I've got speed times time. I've got a length. I
can design the lens of my of my fish pass. I know that most

00:22:59.919 --> 00:23:08.733
fishes will be able to to rise and and overcome the obstacle.
The fish pass is his helping to overcome. So what the term

00:23:08.733 --> 00:23:16.476
is maximum speed limits in different fish species. A big
question. There is a lot of literature on these. And while

00:23:16.476 --> 00:23:24.327
reviewing the material for the Summer School, I encountered
this very, very recent paper published in Nature Ecology by

00:23:24.327 --> 00:23:34.099
a German group actually? well, it is mixed. I think there is
also U K University and somebody else. I don't remember. It

00:23:34.099 --> 00:23:43.323
is quite a few authors involved, and it is very, very interesting
<unk> they pose the questions in general, the largest

00:23:43.323 --> 00:23:52.440
animals are not the fastest. A lion in faster than than
an elephant. So why? and the question is, eh makes sense?

00:23:52.440 --> 00:24:00.799
because if you think about it, you know, the largest animals
have larger muscles. They are bigger, they have more power.

00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:10.717
So in principle, they should run faster than smaller animals.
And usually this maximum theoretical velocity. V has an

00:24:10.717 --> 00:24:20.246
alometric relationship with mass. It is a power law, essentially,
where A and beer, two coefficients that depends on on,

00:24:20.246 --> 00:24:23.859
on, on, on the species and so forth.

00:24:24.349 --> 00:24:33.065
The explanation they give for this country. Intuitive
result is is based on on the acceleration on the stamina,

00:24:33.065 --> 00:24:40.714
essentially, of of animals. A mouse is able to reach to
saturate his velocity very quickly, can accelerate very, very

00:24:40.714 --> 00:24:47.277
click quickly reach ex maximum velocity and keep it an
elephant, although, has aoretical velocity, which is really,

00:24:47.277 --> 00:24:56.917
really high, because it is very powerful. As many muscles
accelerates very, very slowly. It gets tired for you can

00:24:56.917 --> 00:25:07.039
actually reach the the, the, the symptomatic velocity.
Okay, so it is a trade off between power and and stamina,

00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:17.219
essentially. And they developed a nice model, quite simple,
and they tested it against different species flying, running

00:25:17.219 --> 00:25:27.026
and swimming. And they all show this maximum. Okay, flying.
They have the maximum speeds on the Y axis. Here you have

00:25:27.026 --> 00:25:37.042
the speed on the X axis, you have the body mass. Okay, so
essentially there is a maximum meaning that the largest, the

00:25:37.042 --> 00:25:45.576
biggest animals are not the fastest @unoise@ the intermediate
animals are actually the fastest for Uh flying. Uh <unk>

00:25:45.576 --> 00:25:55.680
mammals, reptiles, and also for swimming animals like like
fish. You can see that there is clearly a maximum around,

00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:06.745
say, one hundred kilograms like tuna in the sea are really,
really fast, or a marine <unk> I think they can go up to

00:26:06.745 --> 00:26:16.468
fifteen meters per second. That is very, very, very fast.
And when I read this paper, I found it really, really

00:26:16.468 --> 00:26:26.817
fascinating and very, very ah. Let us say um, um, I'm <unk>
consistent with this summer school <unk> But I was surprised

00:26:26.817 --> 00:26:36.535
that this study did not include or mention another very
interesting study by <unk> and vase of two thousand and eight,

00:26:36.535 --> 00:26:46.716
where they actually um did um an analysis very complicated
one using air for a theory, trying to find the limits, the

00:26:46.716 --> 00:26:56.233
speed limits of fish and the results of their analysis is
fascinating. They say that small swimmers say one meter long

00:26:56.233 --> 00:27:05.652
are limited by power as before. So the largest fish, in
principle, have more muscles so they can go faster. Small fish,

00:27:05.652 --> 00:27:11.580
they don't have enough power. They are very,
very small, so they reach lower velocities.

00:27:12.359 --> 00:27:22.648
Large swimmers who, in principle, have really large masses
of very strong muscles and have a lot of of stored power in

00:27:22.648 --> 00:27:32.469
their body are actually limited by <unk>, which is fascinating
essentially when a fish starts sweeping the the fin if it

00:27:32.469 --> 00:27:34.340
sweeps it too fast.

00:27:36.140 --> 00:27:40.780
The water around the fin itself will
experience really high velocities.

00:27:41.170 --> 00:27:47.250
And if you remember the <unk> theorem in fluid
dynamics. If you have really high velocities.

00:27:47.420 --> 00:27:57.245
What happens is the pressure drops right now. You can boy
water either increase in the the temperature of it, or by

00:27:57.245 --> 00:28:05.143
decreasing a lot. The the water pressure. Whenever this
pressure goes beyond a certain limit, bubbles that forms from

00:28:05.143 --> 00:28:08.879
nuclei that are naturally present. Water starts to expand.

00:28:09.480 --> 00:28:17.915
And whenever these bubbles travels in the flow and reach
some areas where the pressure is restored, they start

00:28:17.915 --> 00:28:26.039
oscillating. These bubbles um behave. The behavior of bubbles
is is explained by the really place the equation <unk> it.

00:28:26.049 --> 00:28:32.347
Is a complicated differential equation <unk> although an
ordinary differential equation, which is good. But anyway, they

00:28:32.347 --> 00:28:35.879
are very nonlinear oscillators
that eventually lead to collapse.

00:28:36.180 --> 00:28:44.441
When a bubble collapses, collapses really violently inside
the bubble. You may have pressures up to one thousand

00:28:44.441 --> 00:28:53.531
atmospheres. <unk> Cavitation is used for for many purposes.
<unk> Usually <unk> like to avoid it <unk> because these

00:28:53.531 --> 00:29:01.600
habitation bubbles are able to break propellers like in
these pictures. You see, this is the damage of cavitation.

00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:09.265
Around is a shape propeller so they can really break everything.
And so they can really break and damage fish tails,

00:29:09.265 --> 00:29:17.367
essentially. And there are some pictures which I couldn't
find. Unfortunately, apologies for that of of tails. I think

00:29:17.367 --> 00:29:20.369
of tuna fish being damaged by habitation.

00:29:20.579 --> 00:29:26.894
Tuna can afford to reach habitation because they have bonytails,
so they don't have nerve systems, but they don't feel

00:29:26.894 --> 00:29:36.070
pain. But dolphins really do feel pain in the in their tail
so they avoid to actually trigger calvation, because that

00:29:36.070 --> 00:29:44.539
would really, really hurt. So for tuna, cavitation is a
problem. You set salimi for this, for the speed velocity.

00:29:44.549 --> 00:29:51.791
Because whenever you have <unk> around eh um eh any airfall
or any propeller @unoise@ the deficiency essentially of the

00:29:51.791 --> 00:30:02.118
propeller decreases a lot. You reach a solid. What is called
the <unk>, stall where where where were thrust diminishes a

00:30:02.118 --> 00:30:13.798
lot @unoise@ um. So my question when I was reading this paper
on the one hand, you have the velocity and acceleration, a

00:30:13.798 --> 00:30:23.713
concept developed by by here and and co workers. And they
and they say that that explains this maximum in the in, the

00:30:23.713 --> 00:30:33.002
speed versus body mass diagram. I wonder whether <unk> plays
a role in that. It was not mentioned. But I think, uh, I

00:30:33.002 --> 00:30:42.715
think it would um regarding <unk> what I'm working on in <unk>
<unk> hydraulics we are working essentially in this tale

00:30:42.715 --> 00:30:50.903
of the curve, because we deal mainly with fresh water. Well,
@unoise@ eh in this lecture, we will deer mainly on fresh

00:30:50.903 --> 00:30:58.112
waterfish. So we are here. We don't reach the size of of
whales and @unoise@ and so forth eh. In rivers like in the

00:30:58.112 --> 00:31:07.625
oceans @unoise@ so. This is not um a big deal, but um,
definitely as a general concept, in my opinion, <unk> so should

00:31:07.625 --> 00:31:16.085
be ah taken um should be taken into account. Let me just go
back to the previous light. An interesting thing is that

00:31:16.085 --> 00:31:23.477
cavitation sets speed limits, especially when fish is swing
close to the surface. So say, adept the tar less than ten,

00:31:23.477 --> 00:31:30.918
fifteen meters where pressures are low. If you go deeper in
the ocean. Clearly you, the fisher, experience very, very

00:31:30.918 --> 00:31:38.349
high pressures. And habitation is limited, because it is very
difficult to boil water. So perhaps deep inside the ocean,

00:31:38.349 --> 00:31:47.274
fish can go really, really fast, but close to the surface,
to death, that are we interest for, also for freshwater

00:31:47.274 --> 00:31:58.041
problems. <unk> Definitely cavitation can represent a phenomenon
dictating Eh speed limits @unoise@ @unoise@ and this is

00:31:58.041 --> 00:32:08.322
about it for fish locomotion. We will see this afternoon how
fish behaves and deals with with turbulent flows % um % uh

00:32:08.322 --> 00:32:17.994
<unk> <unk> later on four or something we will go into detail
on that. Now let me just keep going with the description

00:32:17.994 --> 00:32:27.523
of background material. And let us talk now a little bit about
flow sensing, flow sensing by fish is is incredible. In

00:32:27.523 --> 00:32:37.051
my opinion, <unk> and I have taken this paragraph from a
paper by Horse Blackman and Zelly Cross, black man. He is a

00:32:37.051 --> 00:32:44.683
scientist based near in Germany. In born, I was lucky enough
to go to one of his seminars is an excellent scientist

00:32:44.683 --> 00:32:54.975
working on the on the mechanical sensory system of fishes.
And it is really fascinating what it does @unoise@ ah and eh

00:32:54.975 --> 00:33:03.662
during this seminar. Um, I was really fascinated. So I, I
dig deeper into the into the topic and found out really

00:33:03.662 --> 00:33:10.953
interesting things. Essentially, as you can see from this
thick picture fishes that the surface, the skin of of fishes

00:33:10.953 --> 00:33:20.305
is covered by um. Some little dots in here that represents,
Ah, well, they are <unk> they are called <unk> and are

00:33:20.305 --> 00:33:30.083
spread around the body, mostly into this line, which is called
the latter line. And all these <unk> as are used to sense

00:33:30.083 --> 00:33:39.968
the flow to measure pressure and velocity around around the
fish. And there are so many and mostly concentrated in the

00:33:39.968 --> 00:33:50.349
head <unk> <unk> divide in superficial new must where there
are some cupola here. Essentially, these are sort of slender

00:33:50.349 --> 00:33:59.213
objects <unk> essentially protruding into the flow, or, let
us say, into the boundary layer forming around the fish

00:33:59.213 --> 00:34:05.820
itself. We are talking about microscopic scales here. So they
are really, really, really small <unk> and when they are

00:34:05.820 --> 00:34:12.917
exposed to the flow, they bend and they send a signal to the
nerve central nerve system, which analyzes the signal and

00:34:12.917 --> 00:34:37.747
dictates. Okay, here there is a high velocity or a high sheer
stress, perhaps more appropriately. And the other building

00:34:37.747 --> 00:35:47.385
block of the of the lateral line is called the canal <unk>
so. In the fish body there are some only small canals a bit

00:35:47.385 --> 00:35:56.885
larger, then the near the superficial nerves. Uh, these are
literally um <unk> essentially. You, have two holes which

00:35:56.885 --> 00:36:03.440
are connected to the outside. Sorry
by a by an under skin canal.

00:36:03.889 --> 00:36:11.660
And uh, the water inside this microscopic canal is driven
by the pressure difference between one hole and the other.

00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:21.339
And this pressure difference? Ah, drive the floor inside
@unoise@ um inside the the the canal and the <unk>. So the

00:36:21.339 --> 00:36:30.130
sensor characteristic sensor of the fish starts not bending,
because there is a bit more a blunt structure, but slides

00:36:30.130 --> 00:36:38.626
okay. And the degree to which these the <unk> lights
depends on the floor velocity, an intern on the pressure

00:36:38.626 --> 00:36:47.518
difference. So in general, you may say, superficial neuromasts,
which from now on we will call S. N are sensors for

00:36:47.518 --> 00:36:52.160
velocities or for boundary layer
philosophy, which is a big problem.

00:36:52.389 --> 00:37:00.305
Can we see why canal <unk> are censored for pressure pressure
differences <unk> okay <unk> that inter turbulent waters,

00:37:00.305 --> 00:37:09.470
or even in cal waters can be very, very small <unk> and they
are actually able really to detect really small variations.

00:37:09.940 --> 00:37:19.079
Ok <unk> for example, <unk> you can have hydrogennamic stimuli
by insects moving on on the surface of a lake. Fish are

00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:29.767
able to actually detect them and go and catch them. All right,
or add this generated by self generated eddies, or it is

00:37:29.767 --> 00:37:41.118
generated by other fish in in close proximity. This is a
picture of the superficial <unk> <unk> you see these these

00:37:41.118 --> 00:37:54.132
small dots in here. And there is also @unoise@ there. Are
also stained canal <unk> in here as you can see the poor

00:37:54.132 --> 00:38:02.150
associated with canal neuromas is slightly larger
than the superficial <unk> itself. There is this.

00:38:02.590 --> 00:38:11.299
Perhaps we could switch off the light here. Uh, there is
this nice picture of of, uh, I think this is a Mm. Well, I

00:38:11.299 --> 00:38:21.062
can't remember what sort of fish <unk> what species thanks
disease. But you can see all the <unk> in the fish skin <unk>

00:38:21.062 --> 00:38:31.112
figure B you can see the canal neuromas <unk> just a larger
diameter @unoise@ than the superficial um eh than the

00:38:31.112 --> 00:38:32.069
superficial <unk>.

00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:42.689
Um, again the superficial neurons work as a @unoise@ with
bending moments essentially and measured the velocity, as we

00:38:42.689 --> 00:38:53.090
say that the cupola inside the water, the canal neuromas,
which is slightly larger, instead glides. And there are these

00:38:53.090 --> 00:39:02.089
<unk> <unk> this hair bundle now. We are going deeper into the
physiology of fish, which I am not really confident with,

00:39:02.089 --> 00:39:09.450
but essentially they are responsible for generating the signal
that then is transferred to the central nerve system, and

00:39:09.450 --> 00:39:21.604
and as analyzed by the fish to work out the velocity field.
Um now, the distribution number and size of superficial and

00:39:21.604 --> 00:39:35.055
canal <unk> that is incredibly a lot among fish species.
<unk> Understanding why is definitely a very active area of

00:39:35.055 --> 00:39:45.102
research. There is an example here of three species <unk> and
you can see the number and the distribution of the canal

00:39:45.102 --> 00:39:56.553
neuromas is is really, really, really high. However, there
is a speculation saying that it seems that a fish with

00:39:56.553 --> 00:40:05.274
superficial neuromas. Abundance lives in calm water. Let
us say lakes, something like that, um? whereas fish with

00:40:05.274 --> 00:40:12.060
abundance of canal <unk> like well are
associated with um turbulent and faster waters.

00:40:12.449 --> 00:40:22.921
The literature on this is contradictory. Somebody says,"
It is true. Somebody else finds no whatsoever link between

00:40:22.921 --> 00:40:29.080
habitat and characteristics of the latter, a line to me.

00:40:29.500 --> 00:40:36.986
I don't really have an explanation. While superficial neuromas
are more useful in calm waters than Ah than canal <unk>

00:40:36.986 --> 00:40:42.136
my interpretation is that ah um superficial neuramas measure
@unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@

00:40:42.136 --> 00:40:47.973
@unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@
@unoise@ @unoise@ @unoise@ let us go back to these slides are

00:40:47.973 --> 00:40:54.219
mediated by the boundary layer. Okay, so around the fish,
whenever the fish moves, there is a boundary layer forming.

00:40:54.230 --> 00:41:00.621
And what they measure, since they are really, really small,
is developed in the boundary leaves. So the result is sort

00:41:00.621 --> 00:41:08.766
of a filter effect of what is really going on outside canal
<unk> measure pressure differences <unk> I don't know if you

00:41:08.766 --> 00:41:17.166
are familiar with boundary layer theory, but in a thin
boundary layer. The fact that the boundary layer is very, very

00:41:17.166 --> 00:41:25.059
thin, dictates the fact that the pressure over the direction
perpendicular to the surface locally is actually constant.

00:41:25.070 --> 00:41:32.277
Okay? so whatever they measure is is very much linked to what
is actually going on outside the boundary leaves, or what

00:41:32.277 --> 00:41:40.612
they really, really want to measure. So to me, kind of makes
sense that fish want to live in the inter turbulent waters

00:41:40.612 --> 00:41:49.023
have developed a system of canal <unk> which is more sorry.
A number of neurons that is more skewed towards canal <unk>

00:41:49.023 --> 00:41:55.854
rather than a superficial enormous. But that is my
interpretation. It could be totally, totally. It is the

00:41:55.854 --> 00:42:03.019
interpretation, again, of a free dynamicist, which should be
integrated within Ah biological framework, which Ah, which

00:42:03.019 --> 00:42:14.377
is something that is as I said," Ah, ah, an active Ah research
area. Ah, how are we doing with time? Hm @unoise@ almost

00:42:14.377 --> 00:42:25.023
there % um anyway. There is a general pan in terms of <unk>
density, it seems that they are more concentrated towards

00:42:25.023 --> 00:42:35.153
the head of the fish, and then they slowly decrease in
density along the body of the fish itself. This is of great

00:42:35.153 --> 00:42:46.803
interest, not only for for ecological purposes. <unk> Many
scientists are trying to reproduce the latter. A line of fish

00:42:46.803 --> 00:42:58.962
so that they can use it in underwater systems to detect obstacles
and so forth. <unk> Instead of <unk> essentially <unk>

00:42:58.962 --> 00:43:07.851
and let me just stress something which is very, very
fascinating. Fish use the latter line for many purposes <unk> so

00:43:07.851 --> 00:43:16.589
they essentially detect what is going on from a <unk> point
of view around them to detect praise or predators, to

00:43:16.589 --> 00:43:24.168
communicate, to do schooling schooling. It means essentially
when there will, when they want to stay together, to feel

00:43:24.168 --> 00:43:33.246
to to % uh to % um to follow each other in a coordinated manner,
and also for object discrimination. So incredibly fish,

00:43:33.246 --> 00:43:43.384
if you put a blindfish or a fish in total darkness within a
bath <unk> and you put a lot of obstacles <unk> the fish

00:43:43.384 --> 00:43:51.826
starts <unk> doing some tail beats most the water round. Get
the signal back from a free, dynamic perspective and has a

00:43:51.826 --> 00:43:59.691
sort of an hydrogennamic picture of the obstacle around the
fish. And there is an ice. Hopefully it will go. Video

00:43:59.691 --> 00:44:11.620
@unoise@ of a blind cave fish. This is a blindfish that was
that was immersed in this bucket essentially, and scientists

00:44:11.620 --> 00:44:21.500
monitored its movements. It is completely bad. You can't see.
But as you can see, well, it seems that there is touching

00:44:21.500 --> 00:44:33.569
the the obstacles, but actually is not. So he is able to avoid
them just by self propelling, and he never hurts himself

00:44:33.569 --> 00:44:52.703
<unk> and to me that is really, really incredible. The latter
line is a system. There you go, which is Key. Ah, for the

00:44:52.703 --> 00:45:04.601
for the health of fish. Whenever you um you um um I the <unk>
you switch off the latter line, you can do that. But I

00:45:04.601 --> 00:45:11.519
think with with some anesthetics, biologists can do that. The
fish are not able really to discriminate what is what is

00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:23.199
around them. So you really impede their life heavily um and
as we will see, understanding how the latter line works.

00:45:23.210 --> 00:45:34.505
What exactly is the <unk> signature felt by the fish as we
will see this afternoon has huge implications, even from an

00:45:34.505 --> 00:45:45.286
engineering point of view, slightly off topic <unk> we talked
about flow sensing <unk> site is also very much used by

00:45:45.286 --> 00:45:55.881
fish. And this summer school, well, this lecture is a bit a
mix of hydrogennamics and fish biology, and how hydrogen it

00:45:55.881 --> 00:46:04.584
has shaped fish, perhaps. And what is really, really interesting
is that, well, the the position of eyes in fish um is

00:46:04.584 --> 00:46:12.085
is really, really clever. So whenever a fish move, uh <unk>
due to the movement itself. There is a pressure field

00:46:12.085 --> 00:46:19.837
generating around the fish. We will have some high pressure
around the head and a little bit low pressure close to the

00:46:19.837 --> 00:46:31.641
tail. High pressure has the potential of distorting the the
the essentially the the eyes of the fish, and and therefore

00:46:31.641 --> 00:46:40.451
the vision of fish. But nature really shaped the position
of of the eyes in proximity of the efficient of <unk> where

00:46:40.451 --> 00:46:47.775
the efficient of pressure of the fish is actually zero Cp.
The coefficient of pressure is nothing but the difference

00:46:47.775 --> 00:46:54.769
between the the pressure and @unoise@ eh pressure infinities.
The background pressure @unoise@ normalized by the Ah, the

00:46:54.769 --> 00:47:03.263
the kinetic energy @unoise@ ah, the kinetic head, essentially
of the current, where the fish is a old imposition, or the

00:47:03.263 --> 00:47:11.992
the velocity itself of the fish. If the the water is standing.
So whenever the Cp is zero, that means essentially the

00:47:11.992 --> 00:47:20.048
pressure in proximity of of the fish surface is equal to the
background pressure. And that is where the eyes of the fish

00:47:20.048 --> 00:47:30.348
are located. So their vision is not @unoise@ % eh % eh is not
% um @unoise@ ah distorted a while % uh swimming @unoise@

00:47:30.348 --> 00:47:40.271
@unoise@ % um this is a list of reference that I've used to
this to do this. First slot of lecture <unk> they represent

00:47:40.271 --> 00:47:49.364
by no means a completely treachery word, but the review, but
they can be considered as a seed to branch out, okay? and

00:47:49.364 --> 00:48:00.229
and read more and learn more about all these topics that we
have covered as far as I understand now, it is time for a

00:48:00.229 --> 00:48:09.355
for a break <unk> ten minutes break but if there are questions
<unk> be @unoise@ unhappy to discuss of course, all

00:48:09.355 --> 00:48:19.341
curiosities or or or anything <unk> all good to start for the
recording videos. Yeah, <unk> okay <unk> right <unk> well

00:48:19.341 --> 00:48:31.572
come back we are now going to the second slot of these morning
lectures @unoise@ Which, is about swimming and living in

00:48:31.572 --> 00:48:33.239
<unk> complex environments.

00:48:33.400 --> 00:48:45.170
So if we go back to the initial big picture of of of um of
the first of the first slot um. Now we have learned a little

00:48:45.170 --> 00:48:54.282
bit more about fish locomotion. We have learned um how fish
sends the flow, what remains to be addressed is a little bit

00:48:54.282 --> 00:49:01.635
of hydrogennamics. Um, eh. So what is actually in rivers?
what? what? what? Uh? what sort of what is the environment

00:49:01.635 --> 00:49:03.090
that they live in.

00:49:04.139 --> 00:49:12.160
And rivers are definitely either. They have very <unk> complex
environments <unk> @unoise@ ah this is a nice picture of

00:49:12.160 --> 00:49:20.201
a river in New Zealand @unoise@ And. Ah you, can see it is.
It is a mandering river that Ah will show clearly strong the

00:49:20.201 --> 00:49:29.004
<unk> grades. So there will be an <unk> in the in the mean
flow @unoise@ uh. And obviously, most rivers are a flow in

00:49:29.004 --> 00:49:37.670
the turbulent regime. Um and turbulence is very, very < laugh
> complex phenomenon. I <unk> perhaps I shouldn't use the

00:49:37.670 --> 00:49:45.615
word complex, complex sciences. Now it is something else.
It belongs to the world of collective behavior and and the

00:49:45.615 --> 00:49:52.110
emergence of microscopic Uh phenomena out of the interaction
of individual elements. Perhaps I should say complicated.

00:49:52.119 --> 00:49:59.809
Okay, so it is < laugh > Turbine is complicated, is it? it is
also complex in, in, in, according to you, to some theory.

00:49:59.809 --> 00:50:08.197
But what I'm talking here today is about complicated things,
things that give headaches <unk> let. Us start with

00:50:08.197 --> 00:50:16.837
turbulence here. There is a little bit of material that
perhaps is is redundant. I think you have had the chance to

00:50:16.837 --> 00:50:25.097
learn what <unk> and the phenomenology during previous lecture.
So I'll go a little bit fast, but an open channel floor

00:50:25.097 --> 00:50:32.925
is a high Reynolds number flow, so it is exposed to the
dynamic instabilities that generate this building block of

00:50:32.925 --> 00:50:41.309
turbines, which are eddies or scales of motion eddies in
general extract energy from the mean flow. So it turbines is

00:50:41.309 --> 00:50:48.189
dissipative phenomenon, and eventually dissipates this energy
into heat through the energy cascade, going from large

00:50:48.189 --> 00:50:56.119
vortices to small vortages. I'm not going to go
farther into this, because I assume you know, that.

00:50:56.250 --> 00:51:06.588
And the if we, if we take a pictorial view of turbulence
based on the on on on spectrum of inspector. We can identify

00:51:06.588 --> 00:51:13.777
three ranges of turbulence going from the large scale ladies,
which contains most of the energy, and then through an

00:51:13.777 --> 00:51:20.606
intermediate range, which is called the inertia sub range
@unoise@ @unoise@ where ah, the scales of motion <unk> lose

00:51:20.606 --> 00:51:29.721
memory of day of the large scales in the flow <unk> but.
Still this, cosity is not important <unk> and then at a high

00:51:29.721 --> 00:51:38.184
wave number. So it is very small scales. Viscosity kicks
in, energy anticipated into it, a hit um. The intermediate

00:51:38.184 --> 00:51:46.050
range is usually called inertia sub range. And Ah, farther
down in the wave number, there is this dissipation range.

00:51:46.070 --> 00:51:54.398
They are both kind of predictable. Theoretically, there are
some issues here at the head overlap <unk> which we have

00:51:54.398 --> 00:52:02.323
worked on, but we, we have good predictions based on theoretical
princess pose. What really gives problems are the large

00:52:02.323 --> 00:52:08.457
the energy containing eddies. And this larger, this influence
essentially fish locomotion. Okay, you can. And this is

00:52:08.457 --> 00:52:16.280
pretty easy to imagine a vortex of this size. Well, whenever
you have fish of a certain size, and four clients, which is

00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:23.633
just the length of the fish. The ed this that will influence
its swimming ability will be an idea of the same size,

00:52:23.633 --> 00:52:29.729
roughly or larger. So we are definitely in the energy containing
regime. When we talk about fish turbines interaction.

00:52:29.739 --> 00:52:39.289
And unfortunately for us, these large scale ladies are
unpredictable. Our our case dependent any rivers you may have all

00:52:39.289 --> 00:52:50.496
sorts of Ed is generated by different. The um @unoise@
um <unk> by different % um @unoise@ ah <unk> ah <unk> ah

00:52:50.496 --> 00:53:00.105
conditions @unoise@ and. This is ah, ah, large. It is generated
by river confluence, which is, you know, it is a kind of

00:53:00.105 --> 00:53:08.610
mixing layer type of turbans @unoise@ that influences the
the Ah, the dispersion of of Ah of sediment @unoise@ % um.

00:53:08.610 --> 00:53:20.989
Then you have, we may have % uh wakes around obstructions
that are, uh, heavily family rivers. This can be man made

00:53:20.989 --> 00:53:29.126
structures like, uh, like bridges with column, while cylindrical
elements protruding the free surface. This give rise of

00:53:29.126 --> 00:53:38.963
very coherent voices <unk> @unoise@ % um @unoise@ % uh that
% um % uh, that form in procrastinity of the linders. And

00:53:38.963 --> 00:53:46.824
this is very, very topical in fish research. We will see that
most experiments are done in wake turbulence, because that

00:53:46.824 --> 00:53:58.834
triggers a special behavior of fish. There was rocks and
logs in torrents that fish use as a refuge, or that fish

00:53:58.834 --> 00:54:08.882
exploit to minimize energy consumption and to hold station
@unoise@ the the simplest let. Us consider the simplest case

00:54:08.882 --> 00:54:16.480
of a straight, rectangular channel that you can have in a
flum. So in a laboratory <unk> okay, I'm talking about this

00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:25.251
because <unk> most experiments on fish are done in the lab.
And so @unoise@ the turbulence properties that are that are

00:54:25.251 --> 00:54:33.155
um investigated belongs to, you know, are essentially <unk>
within the context of of wall turbines, because open

00:54:33.155 --> 00:54:42.816
channels usually have the depths, which is much smaller than
the width of the channel where they flow <unk> so most of

00:54:42.816 --> 00:54:51.988
the turbines is generated by, essentially, by the the friction
between water and and the bed of the channel. And this

00:54:51.988 --> 00:54:58.959
may be a simplistic view, but actually generates very
complicated turbulence. We still don't understand. And this

00:54:58.959 --> 00:55:07.039
worries me a lot, because if we don't understand turbulence
in a laboratory where everything is is controlled. There is

00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:14.200
a straight channel, shallow water. Everything is nice. I mean,
think about trying to model and understand these rivers

00:55:14.200 --> 00:55:25.252
here. I mean, it worries me a lot <unk> but that is what we
have. And in <unk> so in a name, in the digitalized case of

00:55:25.252 --> 00:55:33.504
a straight, open channel flow, uniform flow, the energy
containing Andes in rivers somewhat relate to what are called

00:55:33.504 --> 00:55:41.542
<unk> <unk> <unk> turbulence can it is a very colic phenomenon,
but not completely covered. There are some coherent

00:55:41.542 --> 00:55:48.006
structures. That is what they are called that are responsible
for figuring most of transport phenomena. Okay, momentum,

00:55:48.006 --> 00:55:56.768
scalar and so forth. As you probably have learned in in past
lectures, in this in the summer school <unk> and this high

00:55:56.768 --> 00:56:05.005
pin had. These are coherent structures that scale somewhat
linearly from from the bed. They grow in size when <unk>

00:56:05.005 --> 00:56:16.031
<unk> when you go ah <unk> away from the bed, and they really
have the shape of an Ipain. These are flow visualization

00:56:16.031 --> 00:56:24.667
from America, simulations of of past papers. Uh, okay. The
visualization is a complicated uh issue. Um essentially, uh,

00:56:24.667 --> 00:56:33.245
there are techniques based on the balustrade in Tensor. But
that does doesn't matter that are allowed to find diseases

00:56:33.245 --> 00:56:42.556
of, of, of, of swearing, essentially the swirling property
of um, of of of an Eddie and eh, eh, and how these

00:56:42.556 --> 00:56:50.843
distributes. So they captured the coherence of of this um of
lamps, of fluids that that share the same swearly swearing

00:56:50.843 --> 00:57:00.267
power in a very, very intuitive way <unk> and there are nice
<unk> nice <unk> <unk> this is a high pink forest that was

00:57:00.267 --> 00:57:08.731
captured by a ah woo and moan in two thousand and nine, which
is really impressive. In a flat boundary layer. Red means

00:57:08.731 --> 00:57:16.680
very high longitude of the lost is blue or lower velocity.
And you can really see that these hypothesis <unk> <unk> is

00:57:16.680 --> 00:57:26.674
forming in the near wall region or in the nearby region. In
case of of open China flows, then organize it into pockets

00:57:26.674 --> 00:57:35.326
<unk> essentially a brutal description of all turbulence can
be said that is made by individual hypothesis that then

00:57:35.326 --> 00:57:43.977
organizes into packets <unk> so in many urbanities that
these packets have a coherence themselves and form what are

00:57:43.977 --> 00:57:53.496
called a class of large scales. <unk> So large scales are
assist packets of these <unk>, which is really the building

00:57:53.496 --> 00:58:03.649
block of energy containing Aids in open China. Well, in any
world flows. Really, these large scale motions <unk> well.

00:58:03.659 --> 00:59:05.189
Let, us say this large scale ladies divides in large pockets
of Europeans are independent on the what is called the

00:59:05.189 --> 00:59:38.617
submergence duration between floor depths and the diameter
of spheres. Very large scale motion seems to be very much

00:59:38.617 --> 00:59:46.443
dependent according to different um submergence conditions.
Okay, which correspond to different symbols in here. Um the

00:59:46.443 --> 00:59:56.996
this. I mean, it is probably a little bit of topic today.
But I thought it was interesting. Ah, to show you that. I

00:59:56.996 --> 01:00:06.552
mean, there are scales that are up to fifty times the flow
depth <unk> so. If you have a river one meter deep. You have

01:00:06.552 --> 01:00:13.939
scales of turbines that are along fifty meters
long. Why? what is the origin of these skills.

01:00:14.150 --> 01:00:22.708
But what I really would like you to remember just for this
lecture is that these large scale ladies <unk> Lsm <unk>

01:00:22.708 --> 01:00:30.264
doesn't really matter <unk> scales with the flu depth <unk>
okay <unk> so they are x times the floor depths. That is

01:00:30.264 --> 01:00:37.918
what matters for fish research <unk> but just to give you a
word of caution. These scales are not fully understood. The

01:00:37.918 --> 01:00:45.808
scaling of these edges is not fully understood. Actually,
Cameron and and coworkers from Aberdeen suggests that the size

01:00:45.808 --> 01:00:55.225
of the very large scale motions depends not much on the ration
between the floor depths and and roughness diameter. So

01:00:55.225 --> 01:01:06.156
they are often a case, but rather on the on, the width of
the channel and the floor depths, which is @unoise@ why i

01:01:06.156 --> 01:01:15.176
Don't know don't ask me, because I don't have an answer,
but it is an open question. It is very interesting. It is

01:01:15.176 --> 01:01:24.689
fascinating. Clearly, what is spotted here is just a maximum
of these curves. Okay, <unk> because the size of the very

01:01:24.689 --> 01:01:33.812
large scale motions varies across the, across the vertical,
the vertical axis. Okay, <unk> why should it scale with the

01:01:33.812 --> 01:01:42.298
whist of the channel <unk> I don't know <unk> I thought that
perhaps another landscape that may get into the equation

01:01:42.298 --> 01:01:51.995
should be the the fetch over which the the boundary layer
develops <unk> if I have one meter flow depths, then I need a

01:01:51.995 --> 01:01:59.715
flu. That is at least <unk> well. Much more than fifty meters
long to observe this. This structure. So @unoise@ perhaps,

01:01:59.715 --> 01:02:07.206
depending on on where you measure things change. But I'm
<unk> this is just speculation @unoise@ my own speculation

01:02:07.206 --> 01:02:15.256
@unoise@ Um. There you go. These are, ah, a visualization
of these very large scale motions, they look like," Ah,

01:02:15.256 --> 01:02:23.339
@unoise@ i. Don't know elongated sausages really. They are
really sort of mandering structures. You see, these are the

01:02:23.339 --> 01:02:31.864
core bar here indicates velocity longitude in our velocity
fluctuations. These stripes in here are different

01:02:31.864 --> 01:02:40.595
experiments. Let us focus on this experiment in here, which
has the higher domain that the larger domain you see stripes

01:02:40.595 --> 01:02:48.841
of high momentum and low momentum here that are really, really,
really long and mandatory. And that is what very large

01:02:48.841 --> 01:02:57.920
scale motions look like. They are elongated structures, uh,
moving um around, um. And obviously this is a is a top view.

01:02:57.929 --> 01:03:07.063
Okay, these weaves are from, from, uh, from above. Imagine
that this is your flu, and you are putting a camera on top

01:03:07.063 --> 01:03:16.135
and observing how these scales develop. Ok, <unk> so big big
big head is <unk> um another thing that I need to introduce

01:03:16.135 --> 01:03:24.410
to interpret the results that I will present. Well, not a
result, but the the topic that I will present this afternoon

01:03:24.410 --> 01:03:31.569
is the concept of secondary currents @unoise@ in open China
flows, which is, in my opinion, @unoise@ ah a peculiarity

01:03:31.569 --> 01:03:39.663
of, of, of, of, of, of, open China flows themselves, essentially
what you have. It doesn't really matter if you have a

01:03:39.663 --> 01:03:43.109
<unk> or a tangular channel or any other shape.

01:03:43.670 --> 01:03:48.979
You always have effects of the
sidewalks containing the floor.

01:03:49.130 --> 01:03:57.256
This side was generate some sort of turbulence <unk> <unk>
turban and anthropy that is responsible to generate this

01:03:57.256 --> 01:04:06.666
secondary currents that look like cells in light, but in the
mean flu <unk> so you observe this is secondary cells in

01:04:06.666 --> 01:04:14.269
the mean flow. So it is not directly related to the turbulent
properties. I'm saying directly <unk> because they are in

01:04:14.269 --> 01:04:21.113
directly related to therapy. So we will see why in a second,
the secondary currents are characterized well. Essentially,

01:04:21.113 --> 01:04:31.062
they influence the friction over the the walls of the channels,
or whatever you have up going flows. You have a minimum

01:04:31.062 --> 01:04:41.432
infection wherever the flows go down here you have a maximum
infliction. This is a crush section of the channel flies is

01:04:41.432 --> 01:04:53.006
entering into the plane of the of the screen in here, the
origin of this secondary current is still, it is still under

01:04:53.006 --> 01:05:03.979
investigation. There are different ways to interpret their
their appearance. And one way to do that is to write down the

01:05:03.979 --> 01:05:06.070
transport of electricity equation.

01:05:06.289 --> 01:05:13.407
Well, longitude in Alabama, vorticity, so theorticity that
has a direction perpendicular vector is perpendicular to the

01:05:13.407 --> 01:05:21.780
screen <unk> and vorticity is something that fies locally
<unk> how much the flow is is swearing essentially okay <unk>

01:05:21.780 --> 01:05:31.828
which, is what a secondary current is it is just a cell that
is rotating <unk> if you write down this equation, you see

01:05:31.828 --> 01:05:39.782
that the source term into the equation depends on the
friends, between the the variants of the vertical velocity

01:05:39.782 --> 01:05:47.667
component and the balance of the of the latal balustic
component <unk> the difference between the two. The anisotropy

01:05:47.667 --> 01:05:55.361
gets a source there and generates laundry to the <unk> <unk>
which in my opinion is really fascinating. This secondary

01:05:55.361 --> 01:06:04.832
current seems to be very, very similar in structure to those
very large scale motions that I will show you earlier on

01:06:04.832 --> 01:06:14.984
<unk> but the link and relation between the two is not fully
understood. What really fascinates me is that these mean

01:06:14.984 --> 01:06:18.960
flow properties, % um comes from turbulence.

01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:26.416
So essentially secondary flows are, in my opinion, <unk>
well, we are talking about secondary flows in straight

01:06:26.416 --> 01:06:32.639
channels. <unk> Are mean flow characteristic of Turban flows.
If you don't have turbulence. They don't appear <unk> and,

01:06:32.639 --> 01:06:39.499
in my example are really, my opinion, are the secondary
flows are an example in their energy cascade. <unk> If you

01:06:39.499 --> 01:06:47.092
remember at the beginning, you know, the energy cascading
therapist goes from larger this to small ladies, and then the

01:06:47.092 --> 01:06:55.627
energy energies <unk> squared that is what it is. The energy
is taken by the main floor and dissipated into hit <unk>

01:06:55.627 --> 01:07:03.590
right that is the energy cascade turbines go to the
influences. Give me some energy. I'll dissipated in secondary

01:07:03.590 --> 01:07:08.070
currents world you have turbulence
that is generating meaningful.

01:07:08.920 --> 01:07:18.792
So it is a consistent with an embarrassment in energy cascade,
which personally I don't fully understand <unk> but. As

01:07:18.792 --> 01:07:27.477
far as this lecture is concerned, secondary currents do
exist. I have mentioned myself that have been measured in the

01:07:27.477 --> 01:07:36.639
field in many laboratory apparatus, and they are typical in
open channel flows. But the truth is, they appear in any

01:07:36.639 --> 01:07:45.572
fluid, dynamic facility Er, than it is now. They are. They
are discovering them in winters and said," <unk>, and I've

01:07:45.572 --> 01:07:54.260
got people now putting stripes of of roughness into into
wind tunnels and say," Look, I've got the secondary flows. I

01:07:54.260 --> 01:08:02.260
said," this has been known in open channel for since the'80s,
people do not communicate even the same <unk> discipline.

01:08:02.269 --> 01:08:09.762
But anyway, that doesn't really matter what really matters
today. Swimming in turbine floors. So now we have learned a

01:08:09.762 --> 01:08:18.269
little bit what characterized turbulence in the field, in
reverse, even in a the simple, simplest example of an open

01:08:18.269 --> 01:08:27.238
China flow in a laboratory which usually has rectangular
channels and shallow water. So now we know what we are dealing

01:08:27.238 --> 01:08:37.219
with when we put essentially a fish in the flu <unk> okay,
um. Now, when I started thinking about the material for this

01:08:37.219 --> 01:08:43.949
for the summer school." I said," I remembered this
paper again by Vladimir in two thousand and three.

01:08:44.210 --> 01:08:54.256
That time he was in New Zealand. And uh, I thought he was
very, very well. It is an excellent paper <unk> as usual from

01:08:54.256 --> 01:09:01.357
blood and uh, um. And it is a very nice example where swimming
performance is put is put in the context of dimensional

01:09:01.357 --> 01:09:05.543
analysis. @unoise@ ah um and ah, eh eh eh <unk> <unk> <unk>
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>

01:09:05.543 --> 01:09:09.232
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>

01:09:09.232 --> 01:09:12.921
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>

01:09:12.921 --> 01:09:16.609
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk>
<unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> i really thought it was consistent

01:09:16.609 --> 01:09:23.742
with the top is covering this in the school. And, uh, and a
very good example to explain how, uh, what are the problems

01:09:23.742 --> 01:09:30.603
related to understanding a swimming performance interval and
floors. Okay, so it is just an example. We will go through

01:09:30.603 --> 01:09:37.912
this. There are many other papers, and we will see that they
should actually contradictory results <unk> so you will see

01:09:37.912 --> 01:09:45.218
today I will not give you answers <unk> we will present only
open questions. Essentially, if you in this science, very

01:09:45.218 --> 01:09:54.864
little is known. I would say it is in its infancy. But
anyway, <unk> let us go back to the question, how does wall

01:09:54.864 --> 01:09:58.889
generated bed generated turbans
are fact swim in performance.

01:09:59.180 --> 01:10:09.777
So in this paper, they have used a species which is specific
in New Zealand, which is the galaxies <unk> we don't find

01:10:09.777 --> 01:10:18.070
here in Europe, but obviously New Zealand has a strong
ecological relevance @unoise@ pardon me a second @unoise@

01:10:18.070 --> 01:10:26.781
@unoise@ and um what they decided to do is @unoise@ right,
i? Want to know how turbines affect swimming performance. So

01:10:26.781 --> 01:10:34.377
I'll do time to fatigue tests @unoise@ this time to fatigue
tests is uh, uh. I mean, involved putting um, establishing a

01:10:34.377 --> 01:10:39.979
flow in the flow with a given Mim <unk>
put in the fish inside in the water.

01:10:40.100 --> 01:10:48.740
There is a very precise protocol to do that. But let us leave
it aside for a moment and measure the time it takes for

01:10:48.740 --> 01:10:57.980
the fish to get <unk> to get really tired and impinged in a
screen, usually put downstream to to catch the fish when he

01:10:57.980 --> 01:11:06.014
is too tired, essentially. K so again, you put the fish in
the floor, you time it, you see how long it can swim at a

01:11:06.014 --> 01:11:09.219
given flow velocity. That is a time
to fatigue test. Nothing else.

01:11:10.220 --> 01:11:17.631
They have done that. They used this flu, a very small flum.
To be honest, they kept their flow depth constant. They put

01:11:17.631 --> 01:11:24.275
a couple of screens to contain the fish while swimming. And
they have used two treatments. Essentially, they have done

01:11:24.275 --> 01:11:32.720
experiments with putting some sort of rough walls in the
lateral sorry. They put some roughness in the lateral walls.

01:11:32.729 --> 01:11:42.863
And then they did an experiment with smooth walls <unk> <unk>
and they views a large number of fish to have some sort of

01:11:42.863 --> 01:11:49.384
statistically relevant results. Statistically robust results
<unk> and fish were of different dimensions. A left stands

01:11:49.384 --> 01:11:54.859
for four lengths. There is nothing but the length
of the fish from the snout to tail, nothing else.

01:11:55.279 --> 01:12:04.989
And the size of the fish was five to nine centimeters a
sanction. You saw small fish in a small flum seems to be fine.

01:12:05.000 --> 01:12:13.595
They also measure the turbulence characteristics of the
floor inside the <unk>. This tactics section, which are

01:12:13.595 --> 01:12:20.654
obviously heterogeneous, because these screens are <unk>
essentially grades that create some sort of great turbines

01:12:20.654 --> 01:12:29.478
right downstream, then the flow gets influenced totally by
the roughness, or by the the the walls containing the water

01:12:29.478 --> 01:12:29.919
itself.

01:12:30.340 --> 01:12:38.106
So turbulence, properties, the main floor properties vary a
little bit along the along the test section. They monitored

01:12:38.106 --> 01:12:46.522
them very, very carefully <unk> and just to give you an idea
of what we are dealing with. I'm going to show you these

01:12:46.522 --> 01:12:53.772
plots. A K is the turbulent kinetic energy <unk> the turmoilant
can take energy we probably know just to refresh. It is

01:12:53.772 --> 01:13:04.151
the energy of the turbulent fluctuations. So it is the sum
of the of the viruses, of all the velocity fluctuations in

01:13:04.151 --> 01:13:13.720
the in the test section, field symbols are associated with
smooth wall channel. Experiments were empty symbols with the

01:13:13.720 --> 01:13:22.911
raft channel. So you can see that the rough channels has.
In general, these are turbulent kinetic energy versus mean

01:13:22.911 --> 01:13:29.271
longitudinal velocity, which varies in different locations.
You can tell that overall, within the test section, the

01:13:29.271 --> 01:13:35.336
microscopic differ between the two treatment is that one is
more turbulent or more energy is contained into terminus

01:13:35.336 --> 01:13:42.358
than the other, so that they could isolate the fact of
turbulent and see whether the time to fatigue or fish depended

01:13:42.358 --> 01:13:52.124
<unk> if there was a <unk> difference between the two
treatments. So it was a very good idea, um? and so they did

01:13:52.124 --> 01:14:04.490
@unoise@ and they came up with this with these interesting
results. What you are seeing is is a plot of the velocity of

01:14:04.490 --> 01:14:13.294
of water, which they demonstrated essentially coincides with
the <unk> fish. So I mean <unk> well, the relative the lost

01:14:13.294 --> 01:14:21.257
your fish with respect to water. Ok <unk> so overall, the
velocity of fish with respect to water was the mean <unk> of

01:14:21.257 --> 01:14:27.240
water because the fish was old in station all the time,
essentially moving very little. Yeah, so that is it.

01:14:27.539 --> 01:14:37.823
And on the X axis, we have the time to fatigue. So the time
it takes for the given <unk> of the float to the fish to get

01:14:37.823 --> 01:14:49.198
impinged to the downstream screen. So when it gets too tired.
And they have seen to have shown two important two main

01:14:49.198 --> 01:14:59.889
results. The first is about scale effects. It seems that all
the large, forgiven hue for a game v. Even velocity of the

01:14:59.889 --> 01:15:08.358
flow. Larger fish have time to fatigue that are larger than
smaller fish. And this makes sense is consistent with the

01:15:08.358 --> 01:15:17.135
introductory lecture earlier on a larger fish has more mass,
has more power. It can sustain a high flow for longer. Very

01:15:17.135 --> 01:15:25.568
simple. Conversely, smaller fish has less power and can sustain
the same velocity for shorter times <unk> now as you can

01:15:25.568 --> 01:15:35.202
see this time to fatigue is, uh, <unk> consider only the data
in this area, because this is where we go from seconds to

01:15:35.202 --> 01:15:42.829
minutes, which is the time interval, which is consistent with
the definition of Barst velocity of maximum velocity came.

01:15:42.840 --> 01:15:50.589
What we addressed at the beginning. So those velocities that
the fish can sustain for short time. <unk> That is what we

01:15:50.589 --> 01:15:57.738
are interested in ecologically. And from an engineering point
of view, these other experimental points belong to this

01:15:57.738 --> 01:16:05.270
prolonged swimming activity, which is something in between
the cruising and and the burst, which is unknown territory.

01:16:05.279 --> 01:16:08.340
So they, they were kind of neglected.

01:16:08.909 --> 01:16:17.022
So I was saying," There is this first result about scale
effects <unk> and this is interestingly, is the authors argue

01:16:17.022 --> 01:16:25.569
that this is due to physiological effects of power and mass
<unk> which we have already discussed. There is also Reno's

01:16:25.569 --> 01:16:35.859
number of fact, you probably know that the resistant coefficient
of the body immersed in a moving Floyd <unk> so the

01:16:35.859 --> 01:16:43.186
friction factor, the the drug efficient decreases with
increasing Reynolds. Number <unk> Yeah, <unk> so at lower

01:16:43.186 --> 01:16:50.089
Reynolds number, you have higher <unk> <unk> <unk> and
therefore smaller fish <unk> which are have a lower range of

01:16:50.089 --> 01:16:56.647
number, because simply because they are smaller, they are
exposed to a higher drug efficient <unk> so this contributes

01:16:56.647 --> 01:17:02.170
them to get them tired earlier than larger
fish that instead had a larger reinous number.

01:17:02.350 --> 01:17:09.193
But overall, these results show that what really matters is
the size of the fish <unk> so. At length for example, <unk>

01:17:09.193 --> 01:17:12.610
which, is a good proxy for for mass and for power.

01:17:13.029 --> 01:17:19.372
And Reynolds number, whenever the <unk> number kicks in. It
means that because the effects are relevant <unk> okay <unk>

01:17:19.372 --> 01:17:27.276
so this cost the plays are all the size of the fish do
play a role <unk> the second results which was very, very

01:17:27.276 --> 01:17:34.543
surprising is that these experimental results are not
shown. No turbulence effects whatsoever. So there is no

01:17:34.543 --> 01:17:42.928
certification of data points between turbulent so smooth.
Sorry, very turbulent. Which means the rough fall, the rough

01:17:42.928 --> 01:17:50.584
wall experiment, and the less urbanet let us call it, which
is the smooth wall experiment. There is no certification of

01:17:50.584 --> 01:17:57.310
data. The points are mixed <unk> which, suggests the fact
that turbulence has no <unk> act, at least turbulence

01:17:57.310 --> 01:18:04.376
intensity, which varied a lot between the two treatments
seems to have no effect on the swimming performance of these

01:18:04.376 --> 01:18:14.291
pieces. And this is a little bit in contrast with um, some
previous literature by Pavlov <unk> Ah two thousand although

01:18:14.291 --> 01:18:23.467
the original paper was in Russian, which I cannot read @unoise@
Ah mid nineties. I don't remember, but they have shown

01:18:23.467 --> 01:18:30.900
@unoise@ that actually for another fish Ah, whose Latin name
I don't remember @unoise@ ah um <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> the

01:18:30.900 --> 01:18:32.669
turmoil did have an effect.

01:18:32.810 --> 01:18:40.615
So is it species dependent <unk> the other issues that
these experiments by Pablo Vital were carried out um in a

01:18:40.615 --> 01:18:48.421
different way, not with the time to fatigue test, but with
what is called a critical velocity test, which is not

01:18:48.421 --> 01:18:56.508
directly comparable with this test. So bottom line is it is
an open question. This bed generated turbulence that we have

01:18:56.508 --> 01:19:05.474
learned that we have described a few minutes ago. Does it
or does does not. It doesn't extend an effect on swimming

01:19:05.474 --> 01:19:10.740
performance or not, not clear. It is definitely not clear.

01:19:11.619 --> 01:19:21.269
The authors went on, ended some uh um <unk> we. Will come
back to this point later on. But anyway, the the authors

01:19:21.269 --> 01:19:29.362
decided to to use these wealth of experimental data to do,
to do some to to build a predictive formula linking velocity

01:19:29.362 --> 01:19:37.496
with time to fatigue, and all the other relevant variables
in the problem <unk> so. If you remember, we said, it seems

01:19:37.496 --> 01:19:45.315
that the time to fatigue <unk> and the birth speed depends on
viscosity <unk> because the results are dependent on <unk>

01:19:45.315 --> 01:19:53.402
number on <unk> there you go. So birth speed depends on
Wisconsin burst length, time to fatigue. As we know from the

01:19:53.402 --> 01:20:02.311
previous graph. And a little bit of inertia. So they put
gravity into the into the equation after dimension analysis,

01:20:02.311 --> 01:20:10.455
using the bucking and theorem. They developed a functional
series of non-dimensional groups, which are related by

01:20:10.455 --> 01:20:18.847
functional relationship F and the dimension analysis shows
that the <unk> the birth speed is normalized, forming a

01:20:18.847 --> 01:20:28.638
non-dimensional group, which is essentially the squared of the
<unk> number of the fish fruit number is is a <unk> scale

01:20:28.638 --> 01:20:37.612
normalized by the square root of gravity, multiplied by a
characteristic lane scale. This is the square of it. And this

01:20:37.612 --> 01:20:46.962
is a function of the <unk> number nicely <unk> and another
non-dimensional parameter we <unk> Ah has <unk> no name. I

01:20:46.962 --> 01:20:55.875
would interpret it as the ratio between gravity and <unk>. The
mean acceleration of the fish swimming in the chamber. It

01:20:55.875 --> 01:20:57.780
does in Ebay.

01:20:58.819 --> 01:21:05.813
They did an incomplete similarity assumption following bar
and blood, uh theory, and they related the fish fruit number

01:21:05.813 --> 01:21:15.419
to um a <unk> number through a power law with an exponent.
It needs to be found empirically. There is no way to find

01:21:15.419 --> 01:21:24.417
this exponents theoretically, and a function F associated with
this. No name, dimensional number. And they did some sort

01:21:24.417 --> 01:21:32.914
of empirical fitting. And they came up with this @unoise@
with these ah with this law that allows to collapse the data

01:21:32.914 --> 01:21:40.811
fairly, fairly well <unk> and this is <unk> this is interesting
because they have now developed an equation that can be

01:21:40.811 --> 01:21:48.253
used for fish management and fish pass design. So once you
have your velocity in the channel, which is your design

01:21:48.253 --> 01:21:55.058
parameters, you decide," Okay, I want to design the
channels that its steepness and the roughness that I put in

01:21:55.058 --> 01:22:03.892
determines this will last to you. Then I go to this graph. I
know that the the time to fatigue. I know the size of the

01:22:03.892 --> 01:22:14.039
fish can work out whether the fish pass is well designed or
not. So very, very useful @unoise@ % um development out of

01:22:14.039 --> 01:22:23.102
dimensional analysis and experiments on fish um going back
to the previous question on why no turbulence effects are

01:22:23.102 --> 01:22:33.469
shown in the experiments. The authors, let us say they put
on the table values various <unk> hypothesis, and they

01:22:33.469 --> 01:22:42.089
actually say that uh, um. Essentially in the experiments they
have done. They have varied only the turbulence intensity.

01:22:42.100 --> 01:22:50.527
So the the strength of the fluctuations in the floor. That is
what that means. Okay, @unoise@ they did not body the size

01:22:50.527 --> 01:22:56.945
of their this, because the flow depths was kept constant. If
you remember these large scale motions, these large scale

01:22:56.945 --> 01:23:02.904
ladies that really influenced him in performance, scaled with
the flow depths, so between one treatment and the other,

01:23:02.904 --> 01:23:06.039
presumably the scale of the large edges was the same.

01:23:06.750 --> 01:23:17.206
And in the fluid mechanics literature. Whenever you investigate
the fact of turbulence on on the drag on a body. You

01:23:17.206 --> 01:23:28.071
body two things the size of the is and the intensity of the
had is okay. Fish makes no exception, apparently. And so

01:23:28.071 --> 01:23:37.172
they say," Okay, this study is probably incomplete, because
we didn't test different diseases. And they say there should

01:23:37.172 --> 01:23:46.759
be a wider range of experiments covering a wider range of
an Un. Dimensional number built as the ratio between their

01:23:46.759 --> 01:23:55.361
delines and the size of the fish <unk> which, makes sense I
liked it, but my criticism on that. Actually, they did <unk>

01:23:55.361 --> 01:24:03.181
because Ok, the Ed is in the floor were always the same <unk>,
but the fish changed it in size. Actually, there was the

01:24:03.181 --> 01:24:10.188
worst five centimeters fish and ten centimeters fish <unk>
yet. There is no effect of turbulence on their time to

01:24:10.188 --> 01:24:10.560
fatigue.

01:24:11.079 --> 01:24:21.089
So either we need to explore a wider range. But uh, I'm not
sure um, or perhaps Turban simply has no effects, which is

01:24:21.089 --> 01:24:29.234
country intuitive. If you think about it, um, okay, I'm
talking about that generated term. So the turbulent boundary

01:24:29.234 --> 01:24:38.580
layers, the turbans in here wakes. Mixing layers may have
a completely different uh, uh effects. But as far as bed

01:24:38.580 --> 01:24:49.855
generated turban is concerned, there seems to be no effect
on on fish swimming performance. <unk> We have touched bed

01:24:49.855 --> 01:24:59.929
generated turbulence. What about wakes? so the the terminus
generated by downstream of of objects. You know, does it

01:24:59.929 --> 01:25:09.483
influence swimming performance or behavior of fish. This is
what I'm going to talk next. And this is the topic that was

01:25:09.483 --> 01:25:17.123
addressed by James Leye, who is a big name in this field,
who did very nice experiment showing really fascinating

01:25:17.123 --> 01:25:25.909
results <unk> and what he did he said," Okay, let us start
from the simplest case of a wake generated by a cylinder

01:25:25.909 --> 01:25:35.193
actually used a half cylinders just fix the separation point.
That means the size of the Addis was always <unk>. It did

01:25:35.193 --> 01:25:45.144
not depend on the rein of numbers, essentially <unk> so.
I put this half cylinder within <unk> established some

01:25:45.144 --> 01:25:55.843
waterfalls. He put a in his co work. So of course, I think
trouts in the <unk> and started monitoring the behavior <unk>

01:25:55.843 --> 01:26:05.338
well the behavior the swimming kinematics of these trouts,
or the oscillations of the body or the of the <unk> and so

01:26:05.338 --> 01:26:05.770
forth.

01:26:06.329 --> 01:26:17.086
And % um, he varied a lot the size between a solidaration
between the fish body lenses and the diameter of the of the

01:26:17.086 --> 01:26:25.806
cylinder so that he could generate different editing frequencies
and decides at the size, okay? @unoise@ @unoise@ but

01:26:25.806 --> 01:26:36.131
ok, <unk> Forget about all these details. What was really,
really interesting to observe is that fish fishes tend to

01:26:36.131 --> 01:26:46.077
stay to hold station. Let us say one or two body lens
downstream of the cylinders, away from the low pressure region,

01:26:46.077 --> 01:26:54.940
where the <unk> forward there is Redesseparation, synchronizing
the tail beat to the the shedding. So there was this at

01:26:54.940 --> 01:27:02.657
this cylinder here, generating these eddies and the fish was
doing zigzaging among the eddies @unoise@ okay @unoise@ and

01:27:02.657 --> 01:27:11.998
what he observed is that the muscular activity of the fish
while staying in this in this wake was almost zero, like the

01:27:11.998 --> 01:27:18.089
fish could be dead and do that and use
no energy whatsoever to hold position.

01:27:19.390 --> 01:27:27.307
And fish actually do that, even in Ah, in rivers. So when
they are tired, they go, they, they, they find a log or an

01:27:27.307 --> 01:27:34.284
object that generates these eddies. And the rest I stay there.
It is fascinating. Now, @unoise@ this. Is a peculiar um

01:27:34.284 --> 01:27:43.409
behavior of fish, which is actually dictated by the latter.
A line without the latter a line they struggle to do it.

01:27:43.739 --> 01:27:51.646
Clearly, fish could save energy, even staying in the, in
the, in the, in the section region just downstream of the of

01:27:51.646 --> 01:27:59.290
the of the cylinder, like the cyclist too, during a race. Okay,
you want to to save some energy. You stay in the wake of

01:27:59.290 --> 01:28:06.234
the person in front of you. But that is not the case. That
is not what is making them saving energy is really the

01:28:06.234 --> 01:28:12.734
interaction between dead is generated by the slender and the
kinematics and the swimming of the of the fish, which is

01:28:12.734 --> 01:28:21.329
tuned to see to essentially do Islam among eddies. So exploit
the idea to save energy and the way this is explained is

01:28:21.329 --> 01:28:30.870
as following. Imagine a figure. Well, the panel A of this
figure that is a counter clockwise, a eddy, which is shed by

01:28:30.870 --> 01:28:31.699
the cylinder.

01:28:32.510 --> 01:28:41.083
The green hour, or determines the the, the, the direction of
the incident floated, the fish experiences, which will hit

01:28:41.083 --> 01:28:50.521
while the fish will adjust, having an angle of attack. This
angle of attack will determine the fish will impose to the

01:28:50.521 --> 01:28:58.992
fish. Essentially a drug force here. These are here, which is
parallel to the incident flow and a lift force <unk> which

01:28:58.992 --> 01:29:01.239
is perpendicular to the incident flow.

01:29:01.409 --> 01:29:10.744
These forces gave a net green. I'm a bit color blood. This
is green, right? Yeah, <unk> thank you <unk> the green force

01:29:10.744 --> 01:29:20.013
there, which is the the sum of the drug and lift force that
have a component upwards and an analogy to deny component,

01:29:20.013 --> 01:29:29.904
which is just enough to win the drug experienced by the fish.
So essentially here the fish is moved only upwards <unk>

01:29:29.904 --> 01:29:40.978
it stays in the same laundry to the opposition, but is moving
airports when the Ade travels, and is essentially next to

01:29:40.978 --> 01:29:52.670
the <unk> fish the incident flow is in this direction,
identified by the gray arrow. And at this very small angle of

01:29:52.670 --> 01:30:02.247
attacks you have. Ah, you have a <unk> essentially very
small drug and large lift, which determine a force, a total

01:30:02.247 --> 01:30:11.556
force that has only a vertical component. So again, the fish
tends to go down and again when the clockwise heady is, is

01:30:11.556 --> 01:30:19.848
shed again. This process is exactly the same. There is a lift
force. It is just the the signs are opposite on the floor,

01:30:19.848 --> 01:30:28.048
where the fish tends to go down and then up again, depending
on their on the @unoise@ on the on the um <unk> the

01:30:28.048 --> 01:30:35.753
porticity ah sign of of the Ed. So that is, that is the the,
the current apologies to explain this behavior. What is

01:30:35.753 --> 01:30:45.135
really fascinating is that the fish can adjust the angle of
attack, and to essentially generate the system of drug and

01:30:45.135 --> 01:30:54.052
lift forces to hold position spending almost no energy
whatsoever <unk> which is which is truly fascinating. I think I

01:30:54.052 --> 01:31:08.142
have. Yeah, I do a video showing you some experiment that I
meant. This is the James Leo website, where you can find all

01:31:08.142 --> 01:31:09.539
this uniform flow.

01:31:09.800 --> 01:31:14.580
So this is the car mongating there you go.

01:31:15.350 --> 01:31:23.683
That is how the fish moves <unk> and this is the fish
footprint overlap to some <unk> measurements of the flowfield

01:31:23.683 --> 01:31:31.176
measurement. That is what the fish does. Essentially, they
do Islam among edges <unk> and what is really interesting is

01:31:31.176 --> 01:31:35.579
this video of a dead trout in flowing water.

01:31:37.449 --> 01:31:41.379
And there you go. This is no flow."

01:31:41.600 --> 01:32:02.694
and the floor kicks in @unoise@ when the flow kicks in come
on, you can tell is dead @unoise@ the dead fish start to

01:32:02.694 --> 01:32:20.355
<unk> anyway which is which is very strong proof that there
is no energy. Spain, that is simply because the fish is dead

01:32:20.355 --> 01:32:29.560
<unk> okay @unoise@ okay @unoise@ now so. We have learned how
fish exploit vortices or turbulence to save energy, gee?

01:32:29.569 --> 01:32:36.560
and this is one of the few results. Actually, we know <unk>
clearly whenever we deal with such coherence at this.

01:32:36.939 --> 01:32:43.489
Everything is a lot easier when we go back to the bed generated
turbines. We have <unk> we. Have large scale motions

01:32:43.489 --> 01:32:50.239
that are packets of edges, then very large scale motions, outer
layers. Log layer is a lot more complicated, but in this

01:32:50.239 --> 01:32:58.233
case it is. It is a, I think it is a nice study to show how
clever are fish to exploit turbulence, and and Ah, how

01:32:58.233 --> 01:33:02.160
capable is the latter line. Ah, to
actually detect these flow fields.

01:33:03.060 --> 01:33:11.057
Fish, again, are extremely good experimentalists. Fluid are
experimental is because they really can measure flow fields

01:33:11.057 --> 01:33:20.176
and exploit them. Ah, to save energy. Okay, again, not
much. Now we are. We are not gonna talk much about, ah,

01:33:20.176 --> 01:33:29.411
turbulence, but just mean flow properties of of the of um,
that that can be exploited by fish to save energy. One of

01:33:29.411 --> 01:33:37.160
these energy saving strategies called entertainment, and is
always associated again with the flowfield generated % uh by

01:33:37.160 --> 01:33:46.631
a half cylinder @unoise@ or a semi eh infinite body like this,
with @unoise@ with the round head <unk> okay similar to

01:33:46.631 --> 01:33:56.964
this @unoise@ this half sealing the above so this is the work
by Horse Black Man that I mentioned later on, and and co

01:33:56.964 --> 01:34:04.972
workers, and again, likely out they did experiments with some
fish. They put this house cylinder or this other element

01:34:04.972 --> 01:34:12.583
in a flum, and they observed fish behavior, and they, they,
they just checked wherefish, like to stay <unk> and they

01:34:12.583 --> 01:34:20.920
observed that fish really liked to stay in proximity of these
half cylinder, not too far with an angle <unk> it would be

01:34:20.920 --> 01:34:29.546
a little bit of an angle of attacked with respect of the of
the mean flow. And they did also some numerical simulations

01:34:29.546 --> 01:34:37.192
<unk> but also measurements, detailed measurements of the
floor field when the <unk> fish is actually staying in this

01:34:37.192 --> 01:34:45.239
position, and what they notice that the fish stays there, and
the muscular activity, again, is very, very much reduced.

01:34:45.250 --> 01:34:53.780
So it is definitely an energy saving strategy. And what happens
here is that the flow in proximity of the of the slender

01:34:53.780 --> 01:35:02.079
is slightly deflected, which contribute to generate an angle
of attack of the the air foiled fish. Let us call it.

01:35:02.409 --> 01:35:12.391
And the interaction between this flow and the fish with this
anglovak that generates some sort of a system of lift and

01:35:12.391 --> 01:35:21.038
drag forces, as usual, which generates a total force upwards,
indicated by <unk>. However, this so in principle, this

01:35:21.038 --> 01:35:31.073
should move away the fish <unk> if we should not be able
to hold the position. What happens is that this force is

01:35:31.073 --> 01:35:38.494
counterbalanced by the very low <unk> very low pressure
generated here, because here the floor is going is squeezed

01:35:38.494 --> 01:35:42.789
between the half cylinder and the
fish, so accelerating the middle.

01:35:43.479 --> 01:35:52.118
High levels in low pressure, so low. Ah, Ah, Ah. So essentially
this, this total force is counterbalance, but is that is

01:35:52.118 --> 01:36:01.010
low pressure in in here. So the the fish is actually able
to stay to to old position in there. Unfortunately, the the

01:36:01.010 --> 01:36:09.174
shading of the of the of the half cylinder makes this position
a little bit unstable, so the fish would stay there for a

01:36:09.174 --> 01:36:17.678
bit, but then it would be dragged away by an eddy because, you
know, you have Ed is moving % Ah at theading around which

01:36:17.678 --> 01:36:24.612
Ah, which makes the stability of fish challenging. So that
is why they did the same infinite body experiment where the

01:36:24.612 --> 01:36:31.471
fish could stay in proximity of this half selling their
heads, but without their shedding. Then they noticed that the

01:36:31.471 --> 01:36:41.085
fish again liked really to stay sort of in a similar position,
uh? and it was a lot more stable um um. And this is

01:36:41.085 --> 01:36:47.362
called " and train." and please remember this word. It will
be very, very useful for this afternoon, when we talk about

01:36:47.362 --> 01:36:49.409
my own research, we will need that.

01:36:49.880 --> 01:37:00.689
So far, we have seen <unk> and entertainment as strategies
<unk> for energy and energy <unk> saving toward station.

01:37:00.829 --> 01:37:09.861
The last one is called bow wake riding, and was observed by
Leo once again. And essentially, what happens is that if you

01:37:09.861 --> 01:37:17.794
have a flow going upwards again in the flow, and there is
dissolved cylinder that behaves simply as an obstacle. Fish

01:37:17.794 --> 01:37:28.463
really tended to stay just in front of the of the of the
cylinder, and it really showed a reduced muscle or activity. So

01:37:28.463 --> 01:37:37.844
in simple words that reduced energy expenditure as well. The
reason why is not entirely clear to me. Um, they justify

01:37:37.844 --> 01:37:46.420
that. Because here, there is due to the impinging flow in
proximity of the cylinder. There is a reduced velocity and so

01:37:46.420 --> 01:37:53.988
reduced drug @unoise@ % uh that. Is what they say <unk> I
don't think this. This gives the complete picture <unk> but

01:37:53.988 --> 01:38:02.790
that is what we know what happens for sure is that in front
of the cylinder <unk> the tail beat frequency, the muscular

01:38:02.790 --> 01:38:10.636
activity of the fish, and therefore damage expenditure is
definitely low. So to summarize, after Leo, two thousand a

01:38:10.636 --> 01:38:20.299
beautiful review of Leo. Two thousand and seven. We have three
energy saving strategies that are known at the moment. Um

01:38:20.299 --> 01:38:32.839
with respect to a fish swimming in a uniform floor, a fish
<unk> that does bow wake riding um entertainment or <unk>

01:38:32.839 --> 01:38:41.809
<unk> experiences uh much less um energy expenditure. Please
do remember these these aspects, because we will be used

01:38:41.809 --> 01:38:50.971
this afternoon to, uh, talk about, uh, um, space use and
habitat selection in trouts um in my own uh " research. Again,

01:38:50.971 --> 01:39:00.099
this is a list of reference that you can consult to to go a
little bit, uh, to dig deeper in what we have just discuss.

01:39:00.109 --> 01:39:07.680
And that is it for this morning. If there
are questions, I'm happy to discuss.
