Turbulent Shear Flows 8: Selected Papers from the Eighth International Symposium on Turbulent Shear Flows, Munich, Germany, September 9 - 11, 1991

This volume from the well-known series on turbulent shear flows contains four parts on wall flows, separated flows, compressibility effects and buoyancy, and rotation and curvature effects. Each section begins with an invited introductory article followed by a selection of thoroughly refereed papers rewritten and carefully edited for these proceedings. The book covers theoretical developments, experiments, and applications in the engineering sciences and geophysics, and addresses researchers, graduate students, and engineers.
