Understanding the boundary layer transition and the influence of surface roughness in hypersonic flows is critical for advancing aerospace design and safety. At these extreme speeds, the interplay ...

It is precisely in these transition regions (lift plateaus in the wing polar region) that the flow field around a laminar wing changes abruptly, which has a direct effect on the aerodynamic forces. In ...

NASA is mounting an experiment the agency hopes will shed light on boundary layer transition, which caused considerable uncertainty during the space shuttle's return-to-flight mission in August 2005.

Spectral link of the generalized Townsend-Perry constants in turbulent boundary layers. Physical Review Research, 2021; 3 (4) DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevResearch.3.043054 ...

The fit is then applied to a slab layer hurricane wind field model, and combined with a boundary layer transition model to estimate surface winds over both marine and land surfaces. The Journal of ...
