Simulation and Modeling of Turbulent Flows (Icase/larc Series in Computational Science and Engineering)

The book provides an up-to-date overview of turbulent flow research in the areas of simulation and modelling. Starting with a review of the spectral dynamics of homogenous and inhomogenous turbulent flows, succeeding chapters deal with numerical simulation techniques, renormalization group methods and turbulent closure modelling. Each chapter is authored by recognized leaders in their respective fields, and each provides a thorough and cohesive treatment of the subject.
