Mathematics of Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Flows

by L.C. Berselli, T. Iliescu, W.J. Layton, et al.

Book Overview

This volume presents for the first time in book form the mathematical principles underlying the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method, which is rapidly finding new practical applications in engineering. LES seeks to predict the dynamics of organized structures in turbulent flows by approximating local, spatial averages of the flow. Since its introduction in 1970, LES has matured into a highly-developed computational technology, using the tools of...
