The quest for reductions in fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions in transport has been a powerful driving force for scientific research into methods that might underpin drag-reducing …
This article provides a review of recent progress in understanding and predicting polymer drag reduction (DR) in turbulent wall-bounded shear flows. The reduction in turbulent friction …
The book aims to provide the reader with an updated general presentation of multiscale/ multiresolution approaches in turbulent flow simulations. All modern approaches (LES …
The objective of this paper is to introduce the essential ingredients of linear systems and control theory to the fluid mechanics community, to discuss the relevance of this theory to …
The injection of gas bubbles into a turbulent boundary layer of a liquid phase has multiple different impacts on the original flow structure. Frictional drag reduction is a phenomenon …

A theoretical decomposition of mean skin friction generation into physical phenomena across the whole profile of the incompressible zero-pressure-gradient smooth-flat-plate …
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the momentum and energy transfer in compressible turbulent boundary layers based on integral identities. By considering data …
Turbulence is the major cause of friction losses in transport processes and it is responsible for a drastic drag increase in flows over bounding surfaces. While much effort is invested into …
