You are working for a glider manufacturer and have been asked to analyse the laminar boundary layer at a certain point on the smooth wing. The velocity profile at this point, u(y), is given by: us 3 3³ (²) ² − ² (²) ²³ + +A ¹ (²5). + B where 8 is the boundary-layer thickness and us is the velocity at the edge of the boundary layer. A and B are constants.
