SPECIAL COURSE ON CONCEPTS FOR DRAG REDUCTION

Proceedings includes 9 papers dealing with various means for reducing skin friction drag (e.g. compliant walls, boundary layer control, etc.), induced drag (e.g. winglets), interference drag, transonic shock wave drag (supercritical wings), and supersonic wave drag. In addition, the internal aerodynamics of ducting, especially diffusers, are dealt with. Individual papers are indexed separately.
