Abstract: Turbulent fluctuations of both velocity and temperature fields, issuing from high-resolution large-eddy simulations, have been analyzed in convective boundary layers. The numerically simulated flows are strongly anisotropic ...

Abstract: Temperature fluctuations in an atmospheric convective boundary layer are investigated by means of large eddy simulations (LESs). A novel statistical characterization for both weak temperature fluctuations and strong ...

Abstract: A 3D multiscale kinematic velocity field is introduced as a model to simulate Lagrangian turbulent dispersion. The incompressible velocity field is a nonlinear deterministic function, periodic in space and time, that ...
