A model is presented to describe the dynamic physical processes that occur in a transitional boundary layer flow. The CS-solitons, the closed vortex, the secondary closed vortex and the chain of ring-like vortices are postulated to be the basic flow structures of the transitional boundary layer as well as the turbulent boundary layer. It is argued that the central features of transitional and developed turbulent boundary layer flows can be explained in terms of how the series vortices interact with each other, and with the CS-solitons. The physical process that leads to the regeneration of the new closed vortex along the border of the CS-soliton, as well as the processes of evolution of the vortices to high frequency vortices, is described. The model is supported by the important developments in a number of “kernel” experiments, which illustrate both transitional and developed turbulent boundary layer. An important aspect of the model is that it has been formulated to be consistent with accepted rational mechanics concepts that are known to provide a proper physical description of other flows.
