Introduction

  • Conference paper
Turbulent Shear Flows 5

Abstract

The questions usually asked about turbulent boundary layers fall into three main groups: “what happens in the inner layer?”, “what happens in the outer layer?”, and “what is the response to perturbations?”. Between them, the papers in this section address most of these questions.
