Control of plane mixing layer - Some novel experiments

Current research on the manipulation of plane mixing layers at Tel-Aviv University, University of Arizona, and Technical University of Berlin is described. The objective of the research is to study the evolution of the streamwise and spanwise span instabilities, their possible interaction, and their role in the development of the turbulent structures.
