| Abstract Note | The goals of the Symposium were to draw together researchers in turbulence and combustion so as to highlight advances and challenge the boundaries to our understanding of turbulent mixing and combus?? tion from both experimental and simulation perspectives; to facilitate cross-fertilization between leaders in these two fields. These goals were noted to be important given that turbulence itself is viewed as the last great problem in classical physics and the addition of chemical reaction amplifies the difficulties enormously. The papers that have been included here reflect the richness of our subject. Turbulence is rich and complex in its own right. And, its inner structure, hidden in the morass of scales, large and small, can dominate transport. Earlier IUTAM Symposia have considered this field, Eddy Structure Identification in Free Turbulent Flows, Bonnet and Glauser (eds) 1992 and Simulation and Identification of Organized Structures in Flows, Sorensen, Hopfinger and Aubry (eds) 1997. The combustion community is well served by its specialized events, most notable is the bi?? annual International Combustion Symposium, held under the auspices of the Combustion Institute. Mixing is often considered somewhere in between these two. This broad landscape was addressed in this Sym?? posium in a somewhat temporal linear fashion of increasing complexity. The lectures considered the many challenges posed by adding one ele?? ment to the base formed by others: turbulence and turbulent mixing in the absence of combustion through to turbulent mixing dominated by chemistry and combustion |

| Title | Flow Control : Fundamentals and Practices |
| Author(s) | Gad-el-Hak, Mohamed;Pollard, Andrew;Bonnet, Jean-Paul |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1998. |
| Description | XII, 527 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The potential benefits of realizing efficient flow-control systems range from saving billions of dollars in fuel costs for land, air and sea vehicles to achieving economically/environmentally more competitive industrial processes involving fluid flows. The understanding of some basic mechanisms in free-shear and wall-bounded turbulence suggests that the taming of turbulence is possible so as to eliminate some of its deleterious effects while enhancing others. Passive as well as active, including reactive, flow-control strategies are covered. Sophisticated reactive control systems heavily relying on parallel computers are envisioned for future practical devices to improve the ability to reduce drag, increase lift, suppress flow-induced noise, enhance mixing and achieve other desired flow-control goals. This book is intended for engineers, physicists, applied mathematicians and graduate students who have an interest in the physics and control of laminar, transitional and turbulent flows. The different contributions are written in a clear, pedagogic style and are designed to attract newcomers to the field. A knowledge of basic fluid dynamics is assumed, and the book should help the reader in navigating through the colossal literature available on flow-control fundamentals and practices |
