    Abstract:
    Reduced-order modeling and design of zero-net mass-flux actuators require an understanding of several fundamental flow mechanisms governing the performance of these devices. One such aspect is the pressure drop due to oscillatory flow through a slot. In this Brief Communication, we use numerical simulations and experiments to examine physics-based scaling laws for the various mechanisms that determine the net pressure drop, and critically evaluate a proposed phenomenological model for predicting the nonlinear component of the pressure drop in oscillatory slot flows.

    The response of a many body system to a time dependent coupling which passes through or approaches a critical point displays universal scaling behavior. In some regimes, scaling laws have been known since the 1970's. Recently holographic techniques have been used to understand the origins of such scaling. Along the way, new scaling behaviors in other regimes have been found in holographic models, which have later been shown to hold in a generic field theory regardless of holography. This contribution summarizes recent work on these various scaling regimes.

    We show, using detailed numerical analysis and theoretical arguments, that the normalized participation number of the stationary solutions of disordered nonlinear lattices obeys a one-parameter scaling law. Our approach opens a new way to investigate the interplay of Anderson localization and nonlinearity based on the powerful ideas of scaling theory.

    We discuss the universal scaling laws of order parameter fluctuations in any system in which the second-order critical behavior can be identified. These scaling laws can be derived rigorously for equilibrium systems when combined with the finite-size scaling analysis. The relation between order parameter, criticality and scaling law of fluctuations has been established and the connexion between the scaling function and the critical exponents has been found.
