The call for papers for the rUTAM-Symposium on Mechanics of Passive
and Active Flow Control brought an overwhelming response of
applications for contributions. Fi nally 12 invited lectures, 48
papers and 23 posters were selected by thc Scientific Com mittee to
be presented in the conference. 58 papers are published in this
volume. Due to the limited number of pages available, poster
presentations could not be considered for publication. The editors
would like to thank all the members of the Scientific Committee for
their very valuable assistance. The papers presented at the rUT AM
Symposium were classified under three groups de voted to * Passive
Control Methods, * Active Control Methods and * Control Concepts.
This was done to contrast at first between the passive techniques
where the control power is mainly supplied by the flow itself and
the active techniques where the power is pro vided by external
sources; the third group was devoted to control concepts for
presenting methods of control theory and new techniques of flow
control.
This volume contains the Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium on
Mechanics of Passive and Active Flow Control, held at the DLR,
GAttingen, in September 1998. This follows an earlier IUTAM
Symposium on Turbulence Management and Relaminarisation which was
held in Bangalore in 1987. The last decade has witnessed
significant advances and research activity in the area of flow
control/management, triggered by technological applications as well
as scientific curiosity in understanding the structure of complex
flows. This volume contains both review and contributed papers in
the area of flow control, with emphasis on fluid dynamical
mechanisms underlying different passive and active control
techniques used in a variety of flows such as bumps, roughnesses,
riblets, vortex generators, suction blowing, sound and MEMS; issues
such as new control concepts and control strategies are also
addressed. The application areas include drag reduction,
transition, turbulence and separation, many relevant to
aeronautical systems. This volume is very timely and contains a
wealth of information on current research in the broad subject of
flow control concepts and applications; it should be of particular
interest to scientists, engineers and students pursuing research in
flow control.
