\n􀀂 Pressure fluctuations can peak during boundary-layer transition and are also high during turbulent flow.  \n􀀂 Need to model transitional and turbulent fluctuations and spatial distribution to define the vehicle environments.  \n􀀂 Need to understand how component response is generated as a result of these environments.  \n8  \nBoundary Layer Transition and Pressure Loading   \nPressure fluctuations are generated by turbulent spots in the transitional boundary layer  \n􀀂 Need to model spot growth and spatial distribution to predict the pressure loading.  \n􀀂 Current models based on correlations to incompressible flow data.  \nWe have developed a similar model for high-speed flows using a turbulent-spot approach.  \nBoundary Layer Transition: Instability Wave Packets   \nSecond-mode waves in Mach 8 boundary layer.  \nThe second-mode instability is one of the dominant boundarylayer instabilities at hypersonic speeds.  \n􀀂 Acts like a trapped acoustic wave in the boundary layer.  \n􀀂 Dominant instability is 2D.  \n􀀂 Typically occurs at frequencies near 200-400 kHz.  \n􀀂 Too high to drive vibrational response of structure.  \nTransitional Boundary Layer, Mach 8
