The quest for reductions in fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions in transport has been a
powerful driving force for scientific research into methods that might underpin drag-reducing …

The quest for drag reduction is driven by environmental concerns, in general, and the need
to reduce fuel consumption in transport applications, in particular. Turbulent friction is …

Reynolds-number dependence of turbulent skin-friction drag reduction induced by
spanwise forcing Page 1 J. Fluid Mech. (2016), vol. 802, pp. 553–582. c Cambridge …

Active skin-friction reduction in a turbulent boundary layer (TBL) is experimentally studied
based on time-periodic blowing through one array of streamwise slits. The control …

The effect of Reynolds number (Re τ) on drag reduction using spanwise wall oscillation is
studied through direct numerical simulation of incompressible turbulent channel flows with …

We present measurements of turbulent drag reduction (DR) in boundary layers at high
friction Reynolds numbers in the range of flows, targeting the lower-frequency, outer-scale …

Turbulent boundary layer control (TBLC) for skin-friction drag reduction is a relatively new
technology made possible through the advances in computational-simulation capabilities …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses are conducted to evaluate the gliding
performance of a three-dimensional (3-D) corrugated wing while considering variations in …

An improved phenomenological model is presented for numerical simulation of a Dielectric
Barrier Discharge (DBD) plasma actuator for separation control of high angle of attack flow …

It was believed that fluid flow and the laminar to turbulent transition delay were more easily
controlled on smooth surfaces until the discovery of the grooved shark skin surface that …
