Introduction
The IUTAM Symposium on Boundary-Layer Separation, suggested by
the UK National Committee of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics and
supported by the International Union of Theoretical and Applied
Mechanics, was held at University College London on August 26-28, 1986.
The proposed theme and scope of the Symposium were designed to
help to bring about the necessary interaction between experimentalists,
computationalists and theoreticians for the furthering of understanding in
this challenging subject. The talks and discussions were aimed at
representing the very wide range and application of separating-flow
phenomena, which often substantially affect the whole of fluid dynamics at
medium to large Reynolds numbers, covering in particular both laminar
and turbulent flow, steady or unsteady, two- or three-dimensional, small
or large-scale, incompressible or compressible, external or internal, from
the experimental, computational and theoretical standpoints.
It was intended that about 80 scientists would participate in the
Symposium, with about 25 talks being delivered, to which poster sessions
with 8 contributions were added subsequently. All the speakers and
poster presenters were selected by the scientific committee, although two
late replacements of speakers were required. Fruitful discussions, well
led by the session chairmen, took place formally after each talk and after
the poster sessions and informally on other occasions including the social
events.
The present proceedings of the Symposium appear to reflect much of
the current state of experimental, computational and theoretical work and
progress in boundary-layer separation. We hope that they provide also
ideas, questions and stimulation, in addition to major recent developments.
