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.

Structural subgrid-scale modeling for large-eddy simulation: A review

TL;DR: Recent studies on structural subgrid scale modeling are reviewed, focusing on evaluating how well these models predict the effects of small scales, including a priori and a posteriori test results.

Validation of a novel very large eddy simulation method for simulation of turbulent separated flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the validation of a very LES (VLES) method for the simulation of turbulent separated flow, which is a unified simulation approach that can change seamlessly from Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes to DNS depending on the numerical resolution.

Large-eddy simulation of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in compressible fluid

TL;DR: In this article, a large eddy simulation (LES) technique for the study of compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is developed, where the filtered equations of magnetodynamic dynamics of a compressible fluid are obtained with the use of a mass-weighted filtering procedure (Favre filtering).

Evaluation of Smagorinsky‐based subgrid‐scale models in a finite‐volume computation

TL;DR: In this article, the Navier-Stokes equations are solved with three different grid resolutions by using a co-located finite-volume method, and the effect of the subgrid-scale model is reduced as the grid is refined.

Simulation of airflow around rain gauges: Comparison of LES with RANS models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to calculate airflow around rain gauges by applying a high-resolution large eddy simulation (LES) model to determine the flow fields around a measuring system.

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.
