A square back Ahmed body is used toBruneau, C.-H. mimic a heavy vehicle, bus or truck, in order to derive control processes that yield a significantCreusé, E. drag reduction. The first step is to analyse carefully the structures in the flowDepeyras, D. that have a strong impact on the drag forces. Then, active and passive controls using blowing jets or porous medium layersGilliéron, P. are presented and discussed. The resultsMortazavi, I. are analyzed showing the direct impact of the control on the flow behaviour.
