Bluff-body wakes play an important role in many fluid
dynamics problems and engineering applications.
This book gives and up-to-date account of recent results
obtained in the study of bluff-body wakes. Experimental,
theoretical and numerical approaches are all comprehensively
covered and compared. Topics of particular interest include
hydrodynamic instability analyses, three-dimensional pattern
formation problems, flow control methods, bifurcation
analyses, numerical simulations and turbulence modelling.
The main originality of thisvolume is that recent
conceptual advances made to describe nonlinear phenomena in
general are put to the test on a classical problem in
fundamental fluid mechanics, namely the wake structure
generated behind a bluff object.
