| dc.description.abstract | An account is given of the effect on the boundary layer of a secondary air flow directed normal to a flat plate immersed in a primary flow field of uniform velocity. System design and tunnel operation are discussed briefly. Boundary layer profiles are compared to existing theory and secondary injection effects are discussed. The work described in this thesis was initiated by the author following exposure to the field of jet interaction. Boundary layer conditions during portions of flight where the airstream is subsonic and jet interaction is the means of control posed the problem considered herein. | |

On the Secondary Eyewall Formation of Hurricane Edouard (2014)
(2012-08);A first observationally-based estimation of departures from gradient wind balance during secondary eyewall formation is presented. The study is based on the Atlantic Hurricane Edouard (2014). This storm was observed during ... -
Are Eyewall Replacement Cycles Governed Largely by Axisymmetric Balance Dynamics?
(2015-01);The authors question the widely held view that radial contraction of a secondary eyewall during an eyewall replacement cycle is well understood and governed largely by the classical theory of axisymmetric balance dynamics. ... -
Departures from axisymmetric balance dynamics during secondary eyewall formation
(American Meteorological Society, 2014-10);Departures from axisymmetric balance dynamics are quantified during a case of secondary eyewall formation. The case occurred in a three-dimensional mesoscale convection-permitting numerical simulation of a tropical ...
