High-speed schlieren imaging was implemented to monitor the shock structure and quantify
the flow dynamics of a cylinder-induced shock-wave–boundary-layer interaction (SBLI) as …

Interest in the development of micro vortex generators (MVGs) to control high-speed flow
separation has grown in the last decade. In contrast to conventional vortex generators …

A cone-cylinder-flare model with sharp and blunt nosetips was tested at the AFRL Mach-6
Ludwieg Tube at a 0\(^{\circ}\) angle of attack. Surface-pressure fluctuation measurements …

Experiments were conducted on a cylinder-induced shock wave boundary layer interaction
(SBLI) as its state was brought through transition using a combination of boundary layer trips …

This study examines establishment times of shock-wave/boundary-layer interactions across
a range of interaction types and intermittent facilities. Successful design of a test article for a …
