Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a physical background to the subject of viscous-inviscid interactions (VII) and provide a discussion of some relevant features of integral and differential methods for turbulent boundary layers.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytic method is described which uses static experimental data to predict the separated flow effect on rigid and elastic vehicle dynamics, and an analytic theory is formulated that can predict the separation-induced unsteady aerodynamics if the static characteristics are known from theory or experiment.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The aerodynamic performance and controllability of advanced, highly maneuverable supersonic aircraft can be enhanced by means of vortex management, which refers to the purposeful manipulation and reordering of stable and concentrated vortical structures due to flow separations from highly swept leading edges and slender forebodies at moderate-to-high angles-of-attack as discussed by the authors.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the past history and current state of development of modern turboprops, noting that there has been very little recent development of high power units.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It will be shown that significant economies of execution can be attained if nodes are moved so that they remain concentrated in regions of rapid variation of the flow variables.
