Abstract
The coherent structures within the turbulent boundary layers have been investigated extensively over the past five decades. In particular, the long alternating low- and high speed streaks in the near-wall region. Along these streaks ejection and sweep events occur which play a major role in the production of Reynolds shear stress. Hence, studies on turbulent boundary layer control were focused on manipulating the low-speed streaks, to either reduce wall skin-friction by attenuating the streaks or by intensifying the streaks for separation control.
