Control of Turbulent Boundary Layers: A Biased Overview Brianno Coller, Control and Dynamical Systems, California Institute of Technology Monday, October 9, 199511:00 AM to 12:00 PM Thomas 206 I begin by reviewing pertinent boundary layer phenomena whose dynamics are responsible for the majority of turbulent kinetic energy production. Most recent efforts to control or suppress such phenomena have either focused on heuristic quasi-static ideas, or upon methods with stronger mathematical foundation, but which are too computationally intensive for practical implementation on the Navier-Stokes equations. After briefly discussing these approaches, I present an alternative which, from the standpoint of dynamical complexity, lies between these extremes. |
