Department of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: High-speed flows are challenging to predict due to their multi-physics nature. Simulations are the tool of choice for predicting the operational capabilities of high-speed vehicles, but ground-test experiments are needed for verification and validation. In particular, non-intrusive off-body measurements of the velocity field in proximity to the vehicle are valuable for comparison to simulations. In this talk I will discuss the...
