Overview

Controlling turbulence is an important issue for a number of technological applications. Several methods to modulate turbulence are currently being investigated. All of them are based on the introduction of some sort of perturbation into the flow field which affects turbulence coherent structures responsible for turbulence transfer mechanisms.The book describes several aspects of turbulence structure and modulation and explains and discusses the most promising techniques in detail.
