Linear stability analyses are performed to study the dynamics of linear convective instability
mechanisms in a laminar shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction at Mach 1.7. In order to …

We study practical strategies for producing optimal warped, finite-element meshes for
simulating flow problems involving mesh motions. Geometrical warping is obtained by …

A non-intrusive laser diagnostic known as molecular tagging velocimetry was used to find
quantitative off-body velocity measurements in the wake of a sphere in the Mach 7 Ludwieg …

The high-speed flowfield around a parent-store system is investigated in the present work
using CREATE-AV Kestrel. The store is held in close proximity of the parent body such that …

A blunt-nosed ogive-cylinder-flare model was tested in Mach 6 flow at Texas A&M
University's ACE blowdown tunnel with swept Reynolds number and angle-of-attack (AoA) …

Hypersonic vehicles are subjected to an extreme aerothermodynamic environment
dominated by intense thermal loading which is amplified further when the local boundary …

Laminar-turbulent transition is ubiquitous in viscous fluid flows and is critical in many
engineering applications. While it can be beneficial to enhance mixing, increase heat …

This thesis examined the effect of variations in the geometry of the juncture of a cylinder at a
flat plate. The effect on the pressure and skin friction on the face and surroundings were …
