Since at least the 1920s, scientists have been puzzled by the turbulence that arises when a liquid hits a wall. For instance, what happens when water violently sloshes against the side of a pool or ...

Boundary layer transition and turbulence modelling represent central challenges in fluid dynamics, with profound implications for the design and performance of aerospace, automotive, and energy ...

ADELPHI, Md. -- Army researchers have designed a computer model that more effectively calculates the behavior of atmospheric turbulence in complex environments, including cities, forests, deserts and ...

In order to push flight technology beyond the supersonic regime, fundamental research on viscous hypersonic flow will be essential. It is widely recognized that this research must have both a strong ...

The state and properties of boundary layer (BL) flows are very important issues for the design and operation of high performance air- and ground- vehicles as well as for many industrial flow ...

Researchers have designed a computer model that more effectively calculates the behavior of atmospheric turbulence in complex environments, including cities, forests, deserts and mountainous regions.
