Illustration of daytime-warm-season boundary layer circulations and Cumulus cloud formation over complex terrain. Current research efforts in mesoscale and boundary-layer dynamics utilize novel ...

For decades, scientists have tried to understand how Earth’s inner core operates compared with the rest of the planet. Now, a team of researchers has found compelling evidence that it’s changing shape ...

A lthough the troposphere is often thought of as the closest layer of the atmosphere to the Earth's surface, the planetary boundary layer (PBL)—the lowest layer of the troposphere—is actually ...

The study of the processes that lead to the formation, growth, and precipitation of clouds in the boundary layer of the lower atmosphere. Develops models and analyzes observations to understand the ...

This is called the no-slip condition. Figure 7. Velocity profile in a boundary layer. The most powerful consequence of the no-slip condition is the appearance of strong velocity gradients near the ...

Shock wave and turbulent boundary layer interactions (SWBLI) are critical phenomena in fluid dynamics, particularly in the context of high-speed flows encountered in aerospace applications.

The Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel in the Hele-Shaw Laboratory within the Faculty of Engineering is a designated National Wind Tunnel Facility, supporting a diverse range of research activities for both ...
