Multi-scale analysis of flow over heterogeneous urban environments
Maarten van Reeuwijk, Jingzi Huang
A computationally efficient multi-scale planar-averaging framework for urban areas is developed, which enables efficient computation of coarse-grained velocity and scalar fields. W…
Transition from shear-dominated to Rayleigh-Taylor turbulence
Stefano Brizzolara, Jean-Paul Mollicone, Maarten van Reeuwijk +2
Turbulent mixing layers in nature are often characterized by the presence of a mean shear and an unstable buoyancy gradient between two streams of different velocity. Depending on…
Connecting the time evolution of the turbulence interface to coherent structures
M. M. Neamtu-Halic, D. Krug, J. P. Mollicone +3
The surface area of turbulent/non-turbulent interfaces (TNTIs) is continuously produced and destroyed via stretching and curvature/propagation effects. Here, the mechanisms respons…
Unified description of turbulent entrainment
Maarten van Reeuwijk, J. Christos Vassilicos, John Craske
We present a mathematical description of turbulent entrainment that is applicable to free shear problems that evolve in space, time or both. Defining the global entrainment velocit…
