Turbulence: from Complexity to Variety
Massimo Germano
In this note we advocate the notion of variety as juxtaposed to the notion of complexity. Laminar flows are complex, turbulence is various. When the gradients reach a critical poin…
The h-index and the Harmonic Mean
Massimo Germano
The Harmonic Mean between the number of papers and the citation number per paper is proposed as a simple single-value index to quantify an individual's research output. Two simple…
Relativistic tunneling through two "transparent" successive barriers
Massimo Germano
In the case of tunneling of relativistic particles, differently from the nonrelativistic case, a limit of "transparent" barrier can also lead to an apparent "superluminal" behavior…
A DG Implementation of a Novel Hybrid RANS/LES Technique With RANS Reconstruction
Antonella Abbà, Massimo Germano, Michele Nini +1
A new hybrid RANS/LES technique, based on the hybrid filter proposed by Germano in 2004, has been studied. The novelty herein introduced is represented by the reconstruction of the…
