… Shock/turbulent boundary-layer interactions (STBLI) with separation occur in numerous
aerospace-transportation applications and detrimentally affect the aerodynamic performance
and system integrity. For lightweight designs, many surfaces in aerospace systems are not rigid;
the strong and unsteady aerodynamic loads imposed by STBLIs therefore result in coupled
dynamics with the compliant surfaces. Our objective is twofold: reduce the detrimental effects
associated with shock-induced separation on these surfaces and understand the coupled …
