The origins of turbulent ?ow and the transition from laminar to
turbulent ?ow are the most important unsolved problems of ?uid
mechanics and aerodynamics. - sides being a fundamental question of
?uid mechanics, there are numerous app- cations relying on
information regarding transition location and the details of the
subsequent turbulent ?ow. For example, the control of transition to
turbulence is - pecially important in (1) skin-friction reduction
of energy ef?cient aircraft, (2) the performance of heat exchangers
and diffusers, (3) propulsion requirements for - personic aircraft,
and (4) separation control. While considerable progress has been
made in the science of laminar to turbulent transition over the
last 30 years, the c- tinuing increase in computer power as well as
new theoretical developments are now revolutionizing the area. It
is now starting to be possible to move from simple 1D eigenvalue
problems in canonical ?ows to global modes in complex ?ows, all -
companied by accurate large-scale direct numerical simulations
(DNS). Here, novel experimental techniques such as modern particle
image velocimetry (PIV) also have an important role. Theoretically
the in?uence of non-normality on the stability and transition is
gaining importance, in particular for complex ?ows. At the same
time the enigma of transition in the oldest ?ow investigated,
Reynolds pipe ?ow tran- tion experiment, is regaining attention.
Ideas from dynamical systems together with DNS and experiments are
here giving us new insights.
