Receptivity of the boundary layer in transonic flow past an aircraft wing

This thesis presents a theoretical analysis of the generation of Tollmien- Schlichting waves in a boundary layer on the wing surface due to external acoustic disturbances and elastic vibrations of the wing itself. An asymptotic approach based on the assumption that the Reynolds number, Re, is large...
