Abstract

The use of active surface deformations as an actuation strategy has been largely overlooked in the flow control literature. In this work, we investigate how active surface deformations applied over a range of frequencies and amplitudes affect a laminar boundary layer. We find that the strategy is capable of producing both high- and low-speed motions. These motions appear well-suited for flow control, especially at the lowest actuation frequencies.
