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.

Influence of chemical schemes, numerical method and dynamic turbulent combustion modeling on LES of premixed turbulent flames

TL;DR: In this paper, a large eddy simulation of a turbulent premixed flame (the VOLVO rig) comparing Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) with globally reduced chemistry for propane-air combustion, a dynamic Thickened Flame (TFLES) model with the usual non-dynamic TFLES model and a high-order Taylor Galerkin numerical scheme with a low-order Lax-Wendroff scheme is presented.

Simulation of Turbulent Flow in a Ribbed Pipe Using Large Eddy Simulation

TL;DR: In this article, the spacing between the ribs is varied to form three representative surface roughness: d-type, intermediate, and k-type; the numerical results are validated against experimental measurements and other numerical data published in the literature.

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.

A dynamic subgrid‐scale model for compressible turbulence and scalar transport

TL;DR: Germano et al. as discussed by the authors generalized the dynamic subgrid-scale (SGS) model for the large eddy simulation (LES) of compressible flows and transport of a scalar.

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.
