This book aims to present modern thinking and developments in the theory, computation and experimental measurement of boundary layers, with particular emphasis on separation. Boundary-layer separation is a common occurrence in external and internal fluid flows at medium to high Reynolds numbers, and the understanding of the phenomenon has increased greatly in recent years. This book, bringing together contributions from theoreticians, computationalists and experimentalists, is an attempt to reflect much of the recent progress as well as point out future goals and provide ideas and stimulation. The work covers the effects of incompressibility and compressibility, steadiness and unsteadiness, two - and three - dimensionality, small - and large - scale behaviour, and various theories, computational methods and experimental findings, for laminar, transitional and turbulent separating flows.
