description Based on the numerical and experimental visualization methods, the flow patterns around a uniformly moving plate located at an arbitrary angle of attack are studied. The study is based on the fundamental equations of continuity, momentum and stratifying substance transport for the cases of strong and weak stratified fluids, as well as potential and actually homogeneous ones. The visualization technique and computation codes were compiled bearing in mind conditions of internal waves, vortices, upstream, and downstream wakes registration, as well as the resolution of ligaments in the form of thin interfaces in schlieren flow images. The analysis was carried out in a unified mathematical formulation for a wide range of plate motion parameters, including slow diffusion-induced flows and fast transient vortex flows. The patterns of formation and subsequent evolution of the basic structural components, such as upstream disturbances, downstream wake, internal waves, vortices, and ligaments, are described both at start of motion and subsequent uniform movement of the plate. Calculations of forces acting on the obstacle in the flow were carried out to study effects of variations in fluid properties, flow conditions and plate parameters on the dynamic characteristics of the obstacle. The numerical and experimental results on the flow patterns around a plate are in a good agreement with each other for different flow regimes.
