Mind the gap: a guideline for large eddy simulation
Journal article, 2009
This paper briefly reviews some of the fundamental ideas of turbulence as they relate to large eddy simulation (LES). Of special interest is how our thinking about the so-called 'spectral gap' has evolved over the past decade, and what this evolution implies for LES applications.
