- The paper gives definitive theoretical proof of an alternative transition mechanism within the family of boundary-layer flows with potential implications for the design of ballistics and rotating machinery. The work has prompted new experimental studies and simulations (led by Lingwood FREng) jointly between Brunel and KTH Stockholm, funded by the SRC under the ASTRiD project. Furthermore, it led to the award of an EPSRC New Investigator Award (EP/R028699/1) for Hussain and an RAEng Senior Research Fellowship award for Garrett.
