SUMMARY:Effect of gaps and bumps on boundary layer transition
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Marcello Augusto Faraco de Medeiros\n Faculty:Escola d
 e Engenharia de São Carlos (EESC)\n Institute:University of São Paulo\n 
 Location:Classroom 165\, ground floor\, Library\, Aerospace Eng.\n Zoom: h
 ttps://technion.zoom.us/j/93549691766\n Abstract: Transition to turbulence
  is challenging research with importance to both low and high speed flight
  vehicle. This seminar will focus on the long standing topic of the effect
  of surface irregularities on transition\, including the long researched p
 roblem of bumps and the much less investigated gaps. Despite having been i
 nvestigated for almost a century\, there are still many open questions abo
 ut the effect of bumps on transition. The seminar will include low-speed l
 ow-turbulence wind tunnel experiments\, direct numerical simulations\, loc
 al/global instability analysis\, advanced signal processing. The talk will
  cover receptivity\, interaction with TS waves and by pass transition. Mos
 t of the seminar will focus on the subsonic regime\, but applications to s
 upersonic regime will also be covered.\n\nProf. Marcello A. Faraco de Mede
 iros holds a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Federal 
 University of Rio de Janeiro (1987)\, a master's degree in Mechanical Engi
 neering from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (1990)\, and a Ph.D.
  in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Cambridge (1996). He is a
  faculty member of the University of São Paulo since 2002\, and was visit
 ing professor at the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid (2012-2013)\, at th
 e University of Liverpool (2018-2019) and at Technion\, Israel Institute o
 f Technology (2025). He has experience in Aerospace Engineering\, with emp
 hasis on Aerodynamics\, working primarily on the following topics: hydrody
 namic instability\, boundary layers\, transition\, turbulence\, and aeroac
 oustics. Among the main applications were natural transition in boundary l
 ayers and the effect of surface imperfections\, including receptivity\, To
 llmien-Schlichting waves and by-pass transition\; and slat and cavity nois
 e. He uses experiments\, theory and numerical simulations and has designed
  low turbulence wind tunnels and developed codes for numerical simulations
 \, linear stability analysis and beamforming. He collaborated with the ind
 ustrial section including Boeing\, SAAB\, American Air Force\, Embraer and
  Petrobras\, among others. He has received a number of awards (including E
 mbraer prize of best thesis)\, represents Brazil in a number of organizati
 ons (among them\, the IUTAM)\, and gave seminars in many institutions and 
 events.\n Details: \n
