In three-dimensional turbulent flows energy is supplied at large scales and cascades down to the smallest scales where viscosity dominates. The flux of energy through scales implies the generation of small scales from larger ones, which is…
Recent studies have shown that entrainment effectively describes the behaviour of natural and forced separating/reattaching flows developing behind bluff bodies, potentially paving the way to new, scalable separation control strategies. In…
