Solution to the complete input-output problem • Initial value problem: flow stability • Forced problem: input-output analysis

Global view of Tollmien-Schlichting waves • Global temporal growth rate damped and depends on length of domain and boundary conditions • Single global mode captures local spatial instability • Sum of damped global modes represents convectively unstable disturbances • TS-wave packet grows due to local exponential growth, but globally represents a transient disturbance since it propagates out of the domain
3D Blasius optimals • Streamwise vorticies create streaks for long times • Optimals for short times utilizes Orr-mechanism
Input-output analysis • Inputs: • Disturbances: roughness, free-stream turbulence, acoustic waves • Actuation: blowing/suction, wall motion, forcing • Outputs: • Measurements of pressure, skin friction etc. • Aim: preserve dynamics of input-output relationship in reduced order model used for control design
