Laminar-turbulent transition is a key phenomenon in fluid dynamics where a flow transitions from a smooth, ordered laminar state to a chaotic, turbulent state. This transition can affect the performance and efficiency of various engineering systems, such as aircraft wings, pipes, and turbines. Researchers study laminar-turbulent transition to better understand the mechanisms that drive the transition, predict when it will occur, and develop strategies to control or delay the onset of turbulence. This area of research has applications in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, and energy.
