Vertical transport of pollutants by shallow cumuli from large eddy simulations [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2012
This study investigates the vertical transport of a passive tracer in a shallow cumulus boundary layer using large eddy simulations. The tracer source is at the surface in one case, and in the inversion layer in the other case.

Statistical ensemble of large-eddy simulations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2002
A statistical ensemble of large-eddy simulations (LES) is run simultaneously for the same flow. The information provided by the different large-scale velocity fields is used in an ensemble-averaged version of the dynamic model. This produces local model parameters that only depend on the statistical properties of the flow.

Large-eddy simulation of multi-component compressible turbulent flows using high resolution methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The ability of a finite volume Godunov and a semi-Lagrangian large-eddy simulation (LES) method to predict shock induced turbulent mixing has been examined through simulations of the half-height experiment [Holder and Barton.

Evaluation of a Buoyancy and Shear Based Mixing Length for a Turbulence Scheme

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2017
We present a new diagnostic mixing length for a turbulence scheme based on a prognostic equation for the turbulence kinetic energy. The formulation adds a local vertical wind shear term to the non-local buoyancy-based mixing length currently used in the ...

Systematic Validation Study of an Unsteady Cavitating Flow over a Hydrofoil Using Conditional Averaging: LES and PIV

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
We present results of Large-eddy simulations (LES) modeling of steady sheet and unsteady cloud cavitation on a two-dimensional hydrofoil which are validated against Particle image velocimetry (PIV) data.

Neurochemical Endpoints to Inform Early‐Stage Trials of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 2 and 3 in a Multisite Setting

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurochemical levels measured by brain MR spectroscopy (MRS) have been proposed as endpoints for clinical trials in early‐stage spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) trials. We tested their trial‐readiness by quantifying neurochemicals in three affected brain regions in early‐stage cohorts of SCA2 and SCA3, examining their reproducibility in ...

Spectral-Element Simulation of the Turbulent Flow in an Urban Environment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The mean flow and turbulence statistics of the flow through a simplified urban environment, which is an active research area in order to improve the knowledge of turbulent flow in cities, is investigated.

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

A Statistical Model for Isolated Convective Precipitation Events

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
We present a highly simplified model to describe the diurnal evolution of a convective cloud field in idealized large eddy simulations. The life cycles of individual precipitation events are detected by a storm tracking algorithm which records the ...

Large eddy simulations of wind loads on an external floating-roof tank

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Wind load of an external floating-roof tank is analyzed using large eddy simulation (LES). First, the governing equations and a LES solution procedure employing FLUENT software are presented. Subsequently, using two benchmark tank models, the accuracy of
