Paper of Matthew Turner to appear in Physics of Fluids

The paper “The boundary layer flow induced above the torsional motion of a disk” co-authored by Matt Turner and Patrick Weidman (University of Colorado) has been accepted for publication in Physics of Fluids. The paper presents an exact solution to the axisymmetric boundary-layer equations above a twisting elastic disk. The results are presented in terms of the twisting parameter m>1 and it is predicted that the flow becomes more stable as m increases due to the boundary layer thinning in this limit. The author final copy of the paper can be found here.
