an eerie type of chaos can lurk just behind a facade of order, and yet deep inside the chaos
lurks an even eerier type of order.” Douglas Hofstadter Bypass transition to turbulence in …

The Savonius wind turbine is a vertical-axis wind turbine invented in 1930s consisting of a
cylindrical drum with semi-circular blades attached to the drum. It is popular for its simple …

Statistical analysis of transitional boundary layers in pressure gradients is performed using
the flow fields from direct numerical simulations of bypass transition. Laminar–turbulent …

The secondary instability of boundary layer streaks is investigated by means of direct
stability analysis. The base flow is computed in direct simulations of bypass transition. The …

We present a discussion on theoretical, experimental, and computational research studies

Görtler vortices developed in laminar boundary layer experience remarkable changes when
the flow is subjected to compressibility effects. In the present study, five. The subharmonic …

This study investigates the stability and transition of Görtler vortices in a hypersonic
boundary layer using linear stability theory and direct numerical simulations. In the …

Shockwave/turbulent boundary layer interaction on flat plate are investigated by using direct
numerical simulation at different wall temperature of T w/T r= 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 respectively …

Hypersonic boundary layer transitions caused by unsteady blowing and suction are
investigated with linear stability analyses and direct numerical simulations (DNS). Three …

Abstract In this paper, Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) are carried out in order to capture
