Shock - wave/ boundary-layer interactions on flat plate
Three-dimensional shock-wave/boundary-layer interactions (SWBLIs) generate highly complex flow structures that differ fundamentally from the simpler, spanwise-uniform behavior seen in 2D interactions.
Shock - wave/ boundary-layer interactions over ogive cylinder
Understanding these unsteady 3D interactions is critical for predicting and mitigating pressure fluctuations, buffet, and structural fatigue in high-speed aerospace systems.
Shock - wave/ boundary-layer interactions over axisymmetric body
High-fidelity simulations and advanced data analysis enable us to uncover the physical mechanisms underlying SWBLI unsteadiness which can aid in development of reduced-order models for flow control and design optimization.
