Advances in effective flow separation control for aircraft drag reduction: modeling, simulations and experimentations

This book includes a collection of chosen research papers from the partners of a research project (the Seventh Framework Programme Grant Agreement (Grant Number: 266326)) named Manipulation of Reynolds Stress for Separation Control and Drag Reduction (MARS) conducted between 2010 and 2014. The project is jointly funded by the European Commission (EC) and the Ministry of Industrial and Information Technology (MIIT) of China. As you will notice, many of the papers reflect the bilateral EU-China collaborations as a result of the project. The MARS consortium was led by International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) in Spain and the University of Sheffield in UK on the European side, Chinese Aeronautical Establishment (CAE) and AVIC Aeronautical Research Institute (ARI) on the Chinese side. The consortium (details can be found at https://www.cimne.com/mars) was composed of 12 European partners and 10 Chinese partners, who have contributed to the volume.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
