Investigation of the Physics of the Turbulent Boundary Layer Focusing on Vortex Structures

Abstract

The report describes summary results of a community-wide assessment of our understanding of the structure and dynamics of turbulent boundary layers. It also summarizes the findings of an in depth numerical study of vortex structures in the boundary layer. Turbulence, Boundary layers, Vortex.
