//! Boundary-layer kernels for wall-bounded turbulent flow.
//!
//! Includes wall shear stress (Newtonian), friction velocity, viscous length
//! scale, dimensionless wall distance `y⁺`, viscous-sublayer and log-law
//! velocity profiles, and the skin-friction coefficient.
//!
//! Conventions: `WallShearStress<R>` stores the magnitude `|τ_w|`. The von
//! Kármán constant `κ ≈ 0.41` and the log-law constant `B ≈ 5.0` are taken
//! as inputs by `log_law_velocity_kernel` so the caller can pick the value
//! convention used by their reference data.
