High resolution numerical simulations of lock-exchange gravity-driven flows

This dissertation focuses on the analysis of lock-exchange gravity-driven flows at high Grashof numbers using highly resolved numerical simulations and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) techniques. The present method uses a non-dissipative Navier-Stokes solver in which the sub-grid scale (...
