Streamwise-traveling waves of spanwise wall velocity for turbulent drag reduction [PDF]
, 2009 Waves of spanwise velocity imposed at the walls of a plane turbulent channel flow are studied by Direct Numerical Simulations. We consider sinusoidal waves of spanwise velocity which vary in time and are modulated in space along the streamwise direction.
