This volume contains the description of an EC-sponsered program to study all relevant aspects of shock/ boundary-layer interaction control, the latter designed to improve aircraft performance at design (cruise) and off-design conditions. The work being presented includes a discussion of basic control experiments and the corresponding physical modeling, to account for shock control and a discussion of the airfoil experiments conducted for code validation and control assessment, in conjunction with the basic experiments and computations. The contents is comprised of a section giving a broad overview of the research carried out here and more detailed individual contributions by the participants in the research.

Der Band enthalt den Abschlussbericht eines von EU gefoerderten Projekts EUROSHOCK, das alle relevanten Aspekte der Kontrolle von Stossfronten und Grenzschichten (wichtig z.B. fur die Verbesserung der Flugeigenschaften von Fluzeugen) untersuchte. Neben einer ausfuhrlichen Diskussion der grundlegenden Kontrollexperimente und der zugrundeliegenden Modellierung werden auch die Versuche an Tragflachen beschrieben, die zur Validierung von Modellrechnungen durchgefuhrt werden. Daruber hinaus enthalt der Band auch die detaillierten Ergebnisse der Teilnehmer an dem Forschungsprogramm.
