1. Receptivity of crossflow-dominated boundary layers
Abstract : This thesis deals with receptivity mechanisms of three-dimensional, crossflow-dominated boundary layers. The receptivity of two model problems, a swept-flat-plate and a swept-wing boundary layer, is investigated by solving the parabolised stability equations (PSE) as well as by performing direct numerical simulations (DNS).

2. Adaptive Mesh Refinement and Simulations of Unsteady Delta-Wing Aerodynamics
Abstract : This thesis deals with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)simulations of the flow around delta wings at high angles ofattack. These triangular wings, mainly used in militaryaircraft designs, experience the formation of two vortices ontheir lee-side at large angles of attack. READ MORE

3. Receptivity of Boundary-Layer Flows over Flat and Curved Walls
Abstract : Direct numerical simulations of the receptivity and instability of boundary layers on flat and curved surfaces are herein reported. Various flow models are considered with the aim to capture aspects of flows over straight and swept wings such as wall curvature, pressure variations, leading-edge effects, streamline curvature and crossflow.

4. On stability and receptivity of boundary-layer flows
Abstract : This work is concerned with stability and receptivity analysis as well as studies on control of the laminar-turbulent transition in boundary-layer flows through direct numerical simulations. Various flow configurations are considered to address flow around straight and swept wings. READ MORE

5. Numerical studies of receptivity, stability and transition of wing and turbine blade boundary layers
Abstract : In the present thesis, receptivity, stability and laminar-turbulent transition of different boundary-layer flows are addressed and investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. In particular, flows over a wing and a low-pressure-turbine (LPT) blade have been the main focus. READ MORE
