Abstract

The second European Mechanics Colloquium, on the subject of three-dimensional boundary layers, was held at Liverpool University from 4 to 7 January 1966 and was attended by thirty-eight people closely associated with current work in this field.

The meeting was opened by an introductory review by J. C. Cooke, who successfully sought to provoke discussion by emphasizing areas of apparent agreement and disagreement. The discussions which followed were based on a series of contributions by participants in the Colloquium, and covered the following topics:

  1. Laminar boundary layers.

  2. Three-dimensional perturbations of two-dimensional turbulent boundary layers.

  3. Corner and secondary flows.

  4. Boundary layers associated with flow past obstacles.

  5. Flow over delta wings.

  6. Separation.

  7. Flow over rotating surfaces.

  8. Heat and mass transfer.

  9. Miscellaneous topics.

In all these cases, the emphasis was on the three-dimensional nature of the flow, and in this report the discussions are summarized under these headings.
