Fluid dynamics across scales: Insights from compressible turbulence and large-scale tropical atmospheric dynamics
Auditorium (AE 005), Department of Aerospace EngineeringFluid flows in nature and engineering exhibit a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. This talk presents two problems across this range: compressible turbulence in channel flows and large-scale vorticity dynamics in the tropical atmosphere. The first part of the talk focuses on compressible turbulence, which plays a key role in many aerospace flows, […]
