IMG Seminar: Integrated Study of Separation Control; Unsteady Circulation Control for High-Performance Low-Noise Aircraft

Event date: 
Fri, 07/22/2011 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm

John Griffin will be giving a talk on nonlinear flow interactions that dominate separated flows. He will discuss the methodology for implementing effective, low power control strategies using various actuators in realistic separated flows. Ashley Jones will be speaking on unsteady circulation control:  the motivation as well as the ongoing research on its potential applications in today's technology.

IMG Seminar: Transonic Flow over a Turret; Microfluidic Device for Second Hand Smoke Detection

Event date: 
Fri, 07/08/2011 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm

At this week's IMG seminar, Benjamin George will give a talk to outline the initial steps in using flow control to improve the aero-optic performance of flow behind a three dimensional turret.
