Boundary Layer and Drag

Build the boundary layer from the no-slip wall outward, separate laminar from turbulent growth and estimate the boundary layer thickness, compute drag and lift from the drag and lift coefficients and the dynamic pressure, read flow separation and streamlining, and find the terminal velocity of a settling sphere on the Hydraulics and Geotechnical Engineering paper of the CELE.
