▪ Abstract A Lagrangian description of turbulence has unique physical advantages that are
especially important in studies of mixing and dispersion. We focus on fundamental aspects …

Abstract The Elliptic Blending Reynolds Stress Model (EB-RSM), originally proposed by
Manceau and Hanjalić (2002) to extend standard, weakly inhomogeneous Reynolds stress …

Over twenty years have passed since the first large eddy simulation (Les) results by
Deardorff (1970) were published. During this period, this technique has matured …

The influence of rotation on the spectral energy transfer of homogeneous turbulence is
investigated in this paper. Given the fact that linear dynamics, eg the inertial waves regime …

A weak wave turbulence theory is established for incompressible fluids under rapid rotation
using a helicity decomposition, and the kinetic equations for energy E and helicity H are …

Abstract An unsteady incompressible Navier–Stokes solver that uses a dual time step**
method combined with spatially high‐order‐accurate finite differences, is developed for …

The directions of the triadic energy transfers assumed in a previous paper [Phys. Fluids A 4,
350 (1992)] agree with the spectral closures, in a similarity range, if the exponent of the …

To test the consistency of large-eddy simulation we have run four existing large-eddy codes
for the same case of the convective atmospheric boundary layer. The four models differ in …

In this Brief Communication, we first note the strong similarity between the
magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence and initially isotropic turbulence subject to …

Numerical simulations investigating the formation and stability of quasi-two-dimensional
coherent vortices in rotating homogeneous three-dimensional flow are described. In a …
