Keywords: incompressible turbulent boundary layers

Incompressible turbulent boundary layers are discussed. Experimental and Direct Numerical Simulation data for various Reynolds numbers and pressure gradients is compared. The results depict some details of the various parts of the boundary layer, and show some common features of all boundary layers.
