Ebook: Applications of Circulation Control Technologies

Based on papers from the 2004 NASA/ONR Circulation Control Workshop, this collection is an invaluable, one-of-a-kind resource on the state-of-the-art in circulation control technologies and applications. Filling the information gap between 1986, when the last such symposium was held, and today, it summarizes the applications, experiments, computations and theories related to circulation control, emphasizing fundamental physics, systems analysis and applied research. The papers presented cover a wide variety of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic applications including; naval vehicles, fixed-wing aviation, V/STOL platforms, propulsion systems, and ground vehicles.
