Title: Laminar-Turbulent Transition
Description: The origin of turbulent flow and the transition from laminar to turbulent flow are the most important unsolved problems of fluid mechanics and aerodynamics. Besides being a fundamental question of mechanics, there are numerous applications for information regarding transition location and details of the subsequent turbulent flow. This volume contains two review papers and 60 technical papers presented by internationally recognised authorities covering new developments of transition research on three-dimensional and compressible boundary layers, receptivity, crossflow instability, turbulent spot and transition control.
