Yadala, Srikar (author), Hehner, M.T. (author), Serpieri, J. (author), Benard, Nicolas (author), Dörr, Philipp C. (author), Kloker, Markus J. (author), Kotsonis, M. (author)Control of laminar-to-turbulent transition on a swept-wing is achieved by base-flow modification in an experimental framework, up to a chord Reynolds number of 2.5 million. This technique is based on the control strategy used in the numerical simulation by Dörr & Kloker (J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys., vol. 48, 2015b, 285205). A spanwise uniform...journal article 2018

Yadala, Srikar (author), Hehner, M.T. (author), Serpieri, J. (author), Benard, Nicolas (author), Kotsonis, M. (author)In the present work, laminar flow control, following the discrete roughness elements (DRE) strategy, also called upstream flow deformation (UFD) was applied on a 45<sup>◦</sup> swept-wing at a chord Reynold’s number of Re<sub>c</sub> = 2.1 · 10<sup>6</sup> undergoing cross-flow instability (CFI) induced transition. Dielectric barrier...conference paper 2018

Serpieri, J. (author), Yadala, Srikar (author), Kotsonis, M. (author)In the current study, selective forcing of cross-flow instability modes evolving on a swept wing at is achieved by means of spanwise-modulated plasma actuators, positioned near the leading edge. In the perspective of laminar flow control, the followed methodology holds on the discrete roughness elements/upstream flow deformation (DRE/UFD)...journal article 2017
