- The paper gives a novel numerical computation of the stability of boundary-layer flows including temperature-dependent viscosity for the first time.The research has implications for the drag reduction in aerodynamic flows, as well as the design of semiconductor and graphite sheets in the electronics industry. The article led to further papers by the authors in 2018 and 2020, and subsequently to a recent EPSRC New Investigator Award (EP/V006614/1) for Griffiths in 2021. Furthermore, it has led to a new experimental project to be led by Prof. Peter Thomas at Warwick, with Hussain as Co-I.
