Large eddy simulation of turbulent vortices and mixing layers

In this dissertation large-eddy simulation(LES) is used to study the transitional and turbulent structures of vortices and free shear layers. The recently developed dynamic model and the basic Smagorinsky model are utilized to model the subgrid-scale(SGS) stress tensor. The dynamic model has many ad...
