Recent advances in aero-optics
TL;DR: A brief discussion of the traditional approach to quantifying aero-optic interactions is given in this paper, where the authors review how the development of high-speed wavefront sensors over the past 10 years has impacted the fluid-dynamics and optics fields.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple and rapid method to prepare multifunctional free-standing single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films with variable thicknesses ranging from a submonolayer to a few micrometers having outstanding properties for a broad range of exceptionally performing devices was reported.

The rough-wall turbulent boundary layer from the hydraulically smooth to the fully rough regime
TL;DR: In this paper, the root-mean-square roughness height was at least three orders of magnitude smaller than the boundary-layer thickness, and the Karman number was as high as 10100.

Density measurements using the Background Oriented Schlieren technique
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the implementation of a novel technique called background-oriented Schlieren that can produce quantitative visualization of density in a flow using only a digital still camera, a structured background, and inverse tomographic algorithms which can extract two-dimensional slices from a three-dimensional sional flow.
