TL;DR: The status and outlook of separation control for both steady and unsteady flows are reviewed and both passive and active techniques to prevent or to provoke flow detachment are considered.
Abstract: Under certain conditions, wall-bounded flows separate. To improve the performance of natural or man-made flow systems, it may be beneficial to delay or advance this detachment process. The present article reviews the status and outlook of separation control for both steady and unsteady flows. Both passive and active techniques to prevent or to provoke flow detachment are considered and suggestions are made for further research.
