Numerical study of turbulence structures affected by body forces in a turbulent boundary layer

Even though it is understood that introduction of spanwise wall oscillation into a turbulent boundary flow is a promising technology in reducing the skin friction drag, the physical mechanism behind this phenomenon is not fully explored. This study is an attempt to understand the mechanism of the dr...
