TL;DR: In this paper, the Navier-Stokes equations on a rectangular domain are applied to the simulation of flow around the natural mitral valve of a human heart valve, where the boundary forces are of order h − 1, and because they are sensitive to small changes in boundary configuration, they tend to produce numerical instability.
TL;DR: In this article, the boundary-layer behavior on continuous surfaces is examined, and the basic differential and integral momentum equations of boundary layer theory are derived for such surfaces, for both laminar and turbulent flow in the boundary layer.
Abstract: This study deals with boundary-layer flow on continuous solid surfaces. Flow of this type represents a new class of boundary-layer problems, with solutions substantially different from those for boundary-layer flow on surfaces of finite length. In this paper the boundary-layer behavior on continuous surfaces is examined, and the basic differential and integral momentum equations of boundary-layer theory are derived for such surfaces. In subsequent papers these equations will be solved for the boundary layer on a moving continuous flat surface and a moving continuous cylindrical surface, for both laminar and turbulent flow in the boundary layer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Navier-Stokes equations permit the presence of an externally imposed body force that may vary in space and time, and the velocity is used to iteratively determine the desired value.
TL;DR: A particular type of plasma actuator that has gained wide use is based on a single-dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) mechanism that has desirable features for use in air at atmospheric pressures as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The term plasma actuator has now been a part of the fluid dynamics flow-control vernacular for more than a decade. A particular type of plasma actuator that has gained wide use is based on a single–dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) mechanism that has desirable features for use in air at atmospheric pressures. For these actuators, the mechanism of flow control is through a generated body-force vector field that couples with the momentum in the external flow. The body force can be derived from first principles, and the effect of plasma actuators can be easily incorporated into flow solvers so that their placement and operation can be optimized. They have been used in a wide range of internal and external flow applications. Although initially considered useful only at low speeds, plasma actuators are effective in a number of applications at high subsonic, transonic, and supersonic Mach numbers, owing largely to more optimized actuator designs that were developed through better understanding and modeling of...
