摘要
This is a review of the mechanisms that control neutrally stable turbulent boundary-layer flow over hills and waves, their relative magnitudes, and how they exert their greatest effects in different regions of the flow We compare calculations based on various analytical and computational models with each other and with relevant experimental data. We discuss practical applications of these studies.
