Mathematical Problems in Transonic Flow

Abstract

This research was a continuation of the PI's studies of transonic flow about two and three dimensional lifting wings. The work was carried out in close collaboration with Prof. J.D. Cole, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The investigations were carried out within the framework of small disturbance theory. Flows about not-so-slender wings were investigated, chokes wind tunnel flows were analyzed, and the question of the perturbation of shock free flows was considered. In addition a minisymposium for ICIAM'91 was organized around these topics, and the contributions are to be organized as a SIAM monograph.
