Porter The Optical Environment from the Tip Vortices of a Helicopter in Different Flight Regimes 2011 .txt text/plain 361 11 33 To date, aero-optics research has focused primarily on fixed-wing aircraft travelling at compressible-flow speeds, where compressible shear layers and turbulent boundary layers are the dominant source of aero-optic aberrations. Aero-optical aberrations associated with turbulent compressible flow fields can seriously degrade the performance of an optical system; the effect of these aberrations increases as the wavelength of the transiting light becomes shorter, and so is particularly strong at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. cache/9s161546d84.txt txt/9s161546d84.txt
