TLDR
In this paper, the subgrid-scale closure method developed by Germano et al. is modified by use of a least squares technique to minimize the difference between the closure assumption and the resolved stresses.
Abstract
The subgrid‐scale closure method developed by Germano et al. is modified by use of a least squares technique to minimize the difference between the closure assumption and the resolved stresses. This modification removes a source of singularity and is believed to improve the method’s applicability.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new strategy for turbulence model employment with emphasis on the model's applicability for industrial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is presented, in which the Reynolds stress and mean rate of strain tensors are coupled via Boussinesq's formula as in the standard k-emodel.

General circulation experiments with the primitive equations

TL;DR: In this article, an extended period numerical integration of a baroclinic primitive equation model has been made for the simulation and the study of the dynamics of the atmosphere's general circulation, and the solution corresponding to external gravitational propagation is filtered by requiring the vertically integrated divergence to vanish identically.

A dynamic subgrid‐scale eddy viscosity model

TL;DR: In this article, a new eddy viscosity model is presented which alleviates many of the drawbacks of the existing subgrid-scale stress models, such as the inability to represent correctly with a single universal constant different turbulent fields in rotating or sheared flows, near solid walls, or in transitional regimes.

On the application of the eddy viscosity concept in the Inertial sub-range of turbulence

K. Lilly
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that an eddy diffusion hypothesis for use in numerical solutions of turbulent flow problems is consistent with the existence of an inertial subrange at the smallest resolvable scale of the numerical model.
