Shock wave-boundary-layer interaction (SBLI) is a fundamental phenomenon in gas dynamics that is observed in many practical situations, ranging from transonic aircraft wings to hypersonic vehicles and engines. SBLIs have the potential to pose serious problems in a flowfield; hence they often prove to be a critical - or even design limiting - issue for many aerospace applications. This is the first book devoted solely to a comprehensive, state-of-the-art explanation of this phenomenon. It includes a description of the basic fluid mechanics of SBLIs plus contributions from leading international experts who share their insight into their physics and the impact they have in practical flow situations. This book is for practitioners and graduate students in aerodynamics who wish to familiarize themselves with all aspects of SBLI flows. It is a valuable resource for specialists because it compiles experimental, computational and theoretical knowledge in one place.

Given the Navier-Stokes equations in general orthogonal curvilinear coordinates, specific equations for particular cases are indicated. In the notation of singular perturbation theory, the first approximation to the inner expansion (boundary-layer) is solved in simple cases. Some remarks are also made concerning shock-wave boundary-layer interactions; in particular, no approximation to the equations is found in the immediate vicinity of the interaction. Base flows are also mentioned. (Author).
