Sensitivity of flows over three-dimensional swept wings at low Reynolds number.

The article in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics delves into the sensitivity of flows over three-dimensional swept wings at low Reynolds numbers, using linear stability analysis to study flow instability and receptivity. The research identifies regions of maximum flow receptivity to momentum forcing, which vary with Reynolds number and wing sweep angle, impacting flow control applications. The document also references studies on topics like vortex shedding, cavity oscillations, and three-dimensional flows around flat plate wings, exploring aspects such as frequency selection and the effects of aspect ratio on flow behavior. Researchers like Theofilis, Sipp, and Zhang have contributed to this body of work, available online through Cambridge University Press. [Extracted from the article]
