De Gruyter Series in Computational Science and Engineering
-
Edited by:
Eric Darve
The series is devoted to the publication of high-level monographs and specialized graduate texts which cover the modern mathematical foundations behind computational science and its applications in physical and life sciences, and in engineering.
One of its main objectives is to make available to the professional community expositions of results and in-depth presentation of techniques that are of current importance to technological and practical applications.
This book presents a comprehensive overview of the mathematics and physics behind the simulation of turbulent flows and discusses in detail (i) the phenomenology of turbulence in fluid dynamics, (ii) the role of direct and large-eddy simulation in predicting these dynamics, (iii) the multiple considerations underpinning subgrid modelling, and, (iv) the issue of validation and reliability resulting from interacting modelling and numerical errors.
