Additional information

- EPSRC/EADS/Airbus-funded research on a central ambition in external aerodynamics: turbulent-drag reduction on wings. Of major interest to sponsoring civil aviation. Identifying the fundamental mechanisms that drive drag reduction due to oscillatory surface motion.

- First study to extend simulations to high Reynolds numbers, allowing estimation of Reynolds-number dependence.

- Three invited/keynote lectures and presentations in the UK, Europe and Japan, including Japan Society of Mechanical Engineering, Int. Computational Mechanics Symposium, Kobe, Japan, 2010.
