How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

X-ray Spectroscopy of Cooling Clusters (2005, background): “It was discovered quite early that many clusters do not have an isothermal structure (Ulmer & Jernigan 1978) and have softer X-ray spectra in the core.”
Overview of the self-sustaining mechanisms of wall turbulence (2001, background): “Bradshaw took photographs 99 and 100 of Van Dyke [45].”
Recent progresses in boundary layer theory (2015, background): “[27] M. Van Dyke, An Album of Fluid Motion, The Parabolic Press, Stanford, California, 1982.”
Experimental investigation of dynamic pressure loads during dam break (2013, background): “Considering the transitional values in flows across flat plates (see e.g. Van Dyke (1982)), it is expected to have a certain amount of turbulence developing on the boundary layer prior to the impact.”
Computational modelling and analysis of the hydrodynamics of a highly deformable fish pectoral fin (2010, background): “Interestingly, this tip vortex can be observed to be formed of helical vortex filaments which are reminiscent of the tip vortex structure of a lifting wing (Dyke 1982).”
