(2012-10-19)Infrared transition location estimates can be fast and useful measurements in wind tunnel and flight tests. Because turbulent boundary layers have a much higher rate of convective heat transfer than laminar boundary layers, ...

(2014-04-17)The effects of surface roughness on boundary-layer disturbance growth and laminar-to-turbulent transition are not well understood, especially in hypersonic boundary layers. The transient growth mechanism that produces ...

(2022-08-03)Laminar-to-turbulent transition of boundary layers remains a critical subject of study in aerodynamics. The differences in surface friction and heating between laminar and turbulent flows can be nearly an order of magnitude. ...
