A body of revolution spinning in a fluid drives an inherently three-dimensional boundary layer, in which a centrifugally driven secondary circulation lifts the layer off the surface and a centrifugal […]
Turbulence remains one of the outstanding problems of classical physics, and one that has challenged physicists and engineers alike for decades, even centuries. The fusion of classical approaches and tools […]
Hypersonic flight represents a major frontier in aerospace engineering, with its realization requiring a fundamental understanding of coupled chemical and fluid dynamic processes across multiple environments. Of particular importance are […]
Magneto-active solids couple their mechanical response to externally applied magnetic fields, providing a promising route toward remotely tunable materials and structures. Such functionality is particularly attractive for aerospace applications involving […]
