Abstract: Unsteady boundary layers are investigated very actively today as a part of the effort to fully understand and calculate unsteady flows and their applications. As a result a number of review ...

Abstract: Spectral analysis of laser Doppler velocimetry measurements and flow visualization are employed to study the wake of inclined cylinders piercing a free surface. The results indicate that the ...

Abstract: Trailing edge flows are visualized for a pitching airfoil. The validity of the quasi-steady and an extension to an unsteady Kutta condition, namely the Giesing-Maskell condition are examined. A ...

Abstract: The laminar boundary-layer equations for incompressible flow with a mild adverse pressure gradient were numerically solved for flows over downstream moving boundaries. It was demonstrated that the ...

Abstract: Skin friction, pressure, and heat transfer gages are employed to monitor the flow and heat transfer field along the periphery of a circular cylinder in steady and pulsed flow at Reynolds ...

Abstract: The interaction between a vortex and a small plate, are studied experimentally in a water tunnel using a computer-controlled laser-Doppler velocimeter. The interaction is proved to be a strong ...

Abstract: Laser-Doppler velocimetry is employed to measure the periodic field created by releasing spanwise vortices in a turbulent boundary layer. Phase-averaged vorticity and turbulence level contours are ...
