    • Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerators for Atmospheric Re-entry 

      Nair, Prasanth Balakrishnan
      Atmospheric re-entry is the most challenging part of human space flight. In the re-entry phase of flight, the crew module (or re-entry vehicle) is required to bring the onboard astronauts from orbital velocities, which ...

    • Self-sustained oscillations in high-speed cylinder wake flows 

      Premika, T S
      Flow in the wake generated by a solid body presents an important class of problems in fluid dynamics, with wide ranging scientific implications and engineering applications. The present work investigates the structure and ...

    • Small-amplitude Oscillations in Hypersonic Double-cone Flow 

      Kumara, Akshaya G
      Unsteady compressible flows typically pose problems with rich dynamics. The broad concern of this thesis is the shock wave unsteadiness that arises in external high-speed flow over a double-cone body. This unsteadiness is ...
