The method has been applied to various types of configurations in several wind-tunnel investigations conducted by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics at Mach numbers up to 4, and in all cases the calculated roughness height caused premature boundary-layer transition for the range of test conditions.

This new edition of the near-legendary textbook by Schlichting and revised by Gersten presents a comprehensive overview of boundary-layer theory and its application to all areas of fluid mechanics, with particular emphasis on the flow past bodies (e.g. aircraft aerodynamics). The new edition features an updated reference list and over 100 additional changes throughout the book, reflecting the latest advances on the subject.
