Exact theory of unsteady separation for two-dimensional flows. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 512, 257-311 （2004））. By analyzing the distribution of the finite-time Lyapunov exponent （FTLE） along the no-slip wall, it can be found that the periodic separation takes place at the point of the zero FTLE. This new criterion is verified with an analytical solution of the separation bubble and a numerical simulation of lid-driven cavity flows.展开更多
