Synopsis

First concise textbook on Large-Eddy Simulation, a very important method in scientific computing and engineering

From the foreword to the third edition written by Charles Meneveau: "... this meticulously assembled and significantly enlarged description of the many aspects of LES will be a most welcome addition to the bookshelves of scientists and engineers in fluid mechanics, LES practitioners, and students of turbulence in general."

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Pierre Saugaut is one of the leading scientists in scientific computing (Simulation, Analysis and Modeling of Compressible Turbulent Flows), and his books are considered the most important in the field of LES theory and applications (he has been given the ONERA award for the best scientific publication in 1997,1999, 2001). He is teaching at the Pierre et Marie Curie Universite Paris. The author has published several books with Springer ("Large Eddy Simulation for Incompressible Flows", ISBN 978-3-540-26344-9; "Introduction a la simulation des grandes échelles pour les écoulements de fluide incompressible", ISBN 978-3-540-64684-6; "Turbulence and Interactions", ISBN 978-3-642-00261-8; "Quality and Reliability of Large-Eddy Simulations", ISBN 978-1-4020-8577-2). He is in the Editorial/Advisory Board of the Springer Journals "Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics" and "Journal of Scientific Computing".

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The first and most exhaustive work of its kind devoted entirely to the subject, Large Eddy Simulation presents a comprehensive account and a unified view of this young but very rich discipline. LES is the only efficient technique for approaching high Reynolds numbers when simulating industrial, natural or experimental configurations. The author concentrates on incompressible fluids and chooses his topics in treating with care both the mathematical ideas and their applications. The book addresses researchers as well as graduate students and engineers. The second edition was a greatly enriched version motivated both by the increasing theoretical interest in LES and the increasing number of applications. Two entirely new chapters were devoted to the coupling of LES with multiresolution multidomain techniques and to the new hybrid approaches that relate the LES procedures to the classical statistical methods based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations.

This 3rd edition adds various sections to the text such as a careful error analysis of filtered density function models and multiscale models. It also contains two new chapters dealing with the mathematical representations of LES and the prediction of active and passive scalar dynamics, which are of considerable interest for engineering and geophysical modeling. The part on geophysical flow has much to offer on a critical current issue.

To quote from the foreword to the third edition written by Charles Meneveau: "... this meticulously assembled and significantly enlarged description of the many aspects of LES will be a most welcome addition to the bookshelves of scientists and engineers in fluid mechanics, LES practitioners, and students of turbulence in general."
