Fluid Mechanics Research.

Abstract

Several studies on geophysical fluid mechanical phenomena and two on diffusion flames are reported. Other ongoing but unfinished studies are listed. Experimental investigations of laminar and turbulent boundary layer flows with polymers are reported. The existence of a family of velocity fluctuations distinct from turbulence is documented.
