Abstract: Discrete suction is deployed in a flat plate boundary layer to create spanwise mean velocity gradients (SVG) with the goal of delaying the onset of laminar-to-turbulent transition. It is shown that finite boundary layer suction… read more here.

Abstract: Aquatic animals have developed effective strategies to reduce their body drag over a long period of time. In this work, the influence of the scales of fish on the laminar-to-turbulent transition in the boundary layer… read more here.
