This book develops concepts and a methodology for a rational description of the organization of three-dimensional flows considering, in particular, the case where the flow is the place of separations. The descriptive analysis based on the critical point theory of Poincaré develops conventional but rather unfamiliar considerations from aerodynamicists, who face the understanding of complex flows including multiple separation lines and vortices. These problems concern industrial sectors where aerodynamics plays a key role, such as aerospace, ground vehicles, buildings, etc.

Contents

1. Skin Friction Lines Pattern and Critical Points.

2. Separation Streamsurfaces and Vortex Structures.

3. Separated Flow on a Body.

4. Vortex Wake of Wings and Slender Bodies.

5. Separation Induced by an Obstacle or a Blunt Body.

6. Reconsideration of the Two-Dimensional Separation.

7. Concluding Remarks.
