A hypersonic inlet/isolator acts as the “compressor” for scramjet engines through a series of
shocks, which induces complex internal flows. This paper comprehensively reviews the …

The present paper aims to provide a summary report on recent research progress about
unstart mechanism, detection and control of hypersonic inlet to help the researchers working …

A review of recent research outcomes in downstream flow choking-driven unstart is
presented. Unstart is a flow phenomenon at the inlet that severely reduces the air mass flow …

The oscillation characteristics of the shock train in an isolator have been investigated in a
direct-connect wind tunnel at Mach 2.7. High-speed schlieren imaging and high-resonance …

A summary is presented of research progress in the design and technology of hypersonic air
intakes and variable-geometry turbine based combined cycle (TBCC) intakes. Development …

In constant area back pressured ducts, shock trains exhibit inherent unsteadiness where the
shock system fluctuates about its time-averaged position despite constant bulk inflow and …

The unstart phenomena in a model scramjet with a free stream Mach number of 4.5 were
investigated at an arc-heated hypersonic wind tunnel. High-speed schlieren imaging and …

A dataset of normal shock trains in a rectangular cross-section channel has been created
from direct numerical simulations in an effort to quantify the impact of inflow confinement …

The problem considered in this work is shock wave (SW) positioning control in shock-
dominated flows. Experiments are conducted to investigate the triggering effect of patterned …

This work is focused on the experimental characterization of shock-dominated flow
structures, parameters, and dynamics under control by a filamentary plasma array. Testing …
