Q: What personal qualities have made your career possible? A: An advantage I have is having an open mind and being humble enough to realize that you can’t be an expert in everything. As problems become bigger, especially in the case of natural disasters, we have to work more with other scientists, other engineering groups, but also with the social sciences— psychologists, disaster managers, his...
متن کاملFlow Estimation of Boundary Layers Using Wall Shear Information
This paper investigates the problem of obtaining a state-space model of the disturbance evolution that precedes turbulent flow and the associated increase in skin-friction drag on aircraft surfaces. This problem is highly challenging since the flow system is governed by nonlinear, partial differential-algebraic equations (the Navier-Stokes equations) for which there currently exists no efficien...
متن کاملShear-induced convective mixing in bottom boundary layers on slopes
Field data from a stratified lake demonstrate that buoyancy-driven convective mixing can be an important mechanism for the formation of well-mixed bottom boundary layers (BBLs) on slopes. Convective turbulence is caused by differential transport of stratified water masses along the slope of a basin. Because the current velocity usually decreases toward the sediment, water at some distance from ...
متن کاملBoundary Layers and Heat Transfer on a Rotating Rough Disk
The study of flow and heat transfer over rotating circular disks is of great practical importance in understanding the cooling of rotatory machinery such as turbines, electric motors and design and manufacturing of computer disk drives. This paper presents an analysis of the flow and heat transfer over a heated infinite permeable rough disk. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the elliptic Nav...
متن کاملShear turbulence beneath the solar tachocline
Helioseismic inversions of the Sun's internal angular velocity profile show that the rotation changes from differential in latitude in the convection zone to almost uniform in the ra-diative region below. The transition occurs in a thin layer, the tachocline, which is the seat of strong shear in the vertical direction. In this Note we examine whether this rotation profile can lead to shear turb...
