In wall-modeled large-eddy simulations (WMLES), the near-wall model plays a significant role in predicting the skin friction, although the majority of the boundary layer is resolved by the outer large-eddy simulation (LES) solver. In this…
Recent research has shed light on the role of coherent structures in forming layers when stably stratified turbulence is forced with horizontal shear (Lucas, Caulfield & Kerswell, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 832, 2017, pp. 409-437). Here we extend…
In an idealized way, some turbulent flows can be pictured by assemblies of many vortices characterized by a set of particle distribution functions. Ultrasound provide an useful, nonintrusive, tool to study the spatial structure of vorticity…
