With the aim of assessing internal wave-driven mixing in the ocean, we develop a new technique for direct numerical simulations of stratified turbulence. Since the spatial scale of oceanic internal gravity waves is typically much larger…
The present work studied various models for predicting turbulence in the problem of injecting a fluid microjet into the boundary layer of a turbulent flow. For this purpose, the one-equation Spalart-Allmaras (SA), two-equation k-$\epsilon$…
We present a stochastic turbulence generator based on a vorticity formulation where the generated turbulent field implicitly fulfills the kinematic constraints of an incompressible flow. The generator allows direct access to the turbulent…
The small-scale velocity gradient is connected to fundamental properties of turbulence at the large scales. By neglecting the viscous and nonlocal pressure Hessian terms, we derive a restricted Euler model for the turbulent flow along an…
Shale gas recovery has seen a major boom in recent years due to the increasing global energy demands; but the extraction technologies are very expensive. It is therefore important to develop realistic transport modelling and simulation…
A central obstacle to understanding the route to turbulence in wall-bounded flows is that the flows are composed of complex, highly fluctuating, and strongly nonlinear states. In the case of pipe flow, models have deepened our understanding…
The interaction between shear driven turbulence and stratification is a key process in a wide array of geophysical flows with spatio-temporal scales that span many orders of magnitude. A quick numerical model prediction based on external…
We present the results of a Direct Numerical Simulation of a particle-laden spatially developing turbulent boundary layer up to Re{\theta} = 2500. Two main features differentiate the behavior of inertial particles in a zero-…
We use interface-resolved simulations to study near-wall turbulence modulation by small inertial particles, much denser than the fluid, in dilute/semi-dilute conditions. We considered three bulk solid mass fractions, $\Psi=0.34\%$, $3.37\%$…
Fractal grids generate turbulence by exciting many length scales of different sizes simultaneously rather than using the nonlinear cascade mechanism to obtain multi-scale structures, as it is the case for regular grids. The interest in…
Small-scale turbulence can be comprehensively described in terms of velocity gradients, which makes them an appealing starting point for low-dimensional modeling. Typical models consist of stochastic equations based on closures for…
We investigate the statistics of turbulence in emulsions of two-immiscible fluids of same density. We compute for the first time velocity increments between points conditioned to be located in the same phase or in different phases and…
In supersonic and hypersonic flows, the near-wall density variation due to wall cooling poses a challenge for accurately predicting the near-wall velocity and temperature profiles using classical eddy viscosity turbulence models.…
Compressibility transformations are used to relate hypersonic zero-pressure-gradient (ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) to incompressible reference states, but their assessment has largely focused on the collapse of transformed mean…
One challenge in developing a statistical field theory of turbulence is the analysis of the functional equations that govern the complete statistics of the flow field. Simplified models of turbulence may help to develop such a statistical…
The influence of an underlying carrier flow on the terminal velocity of sedimenting particles is investigated both analytically and numerically. Our theoretical framework works for a general class of (laminar or turbulent) velocity fields…
We present results of direct numerical simulation of incompressible fluid flow over a thick bed of mobile, spherically-shaped particles. The algorithm is based upon the immersed boundary technique for fluid-solid coupling and uses a…
The observability of the flow field away from the wall in turbulent channel flow is studied using only wall observations. Reconstructions are generated from noiseless but limited wall data using linear stochastic estimation, with emphasis…
Wall-models are essential for enabling large-eddy simulations (LESs) of realistic problems at high Reynolds numbers. The present study is focused on approaches that directly model the wall shear stress, specifically on filling the gap…
Simulating spatiotemporal turbulence with high fidelity remains a cornerstone challenge in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) due to its intricate multiscale nature and prohibitive computational demands. Traditional approaches typically…
