\chapter*{Abstract}
We investigate the dynamics of incompressible flow around bluff bodies at
moderate Reynolds numbers, combining direct numerical simulation with a new
asymptotic expansion valid at the boundary of the laminar-turbulent transition.

\chapter{Introduction}
This thesis is concerned with the hydrodynamics of bluff-body wakes.
\section{Background}
The problem dates to early 20th-century experiments.
\section{Outline}
Chapter~\ref{ch:theory} develops the theory; Chapter~\ref{ch:num} describes numerical methods.

\chapter{Theoretical Framework}
\label{ch:theory}
\begin{equation}
  \partial_t u + (u \cdot \nabla)u = -\nabla p + \nu \Delta u, \qquad \nabla \cdot u = 0.
\end{equation}
We seek weak solutions in the Leray sense.

\chapter{Numerical Methods}
\label{ch:num}
We use a second-order projection scheme on staggered grids.

\chapter{Results}

    \toprule
    $Re$ & $C_D$ (ours) & $C_D$ (literature) \\
    \midrule
    40   & 1.54 & 1.56 \\
    100  & 1.35 & 1.34 \\
    200  & 1.32 & 1.31 \\
    \bottomrule
  \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\chapter{Conclusion}
The numerical results corroborate the asymptotic predictions to within 2\%.
