Computational Turbulent Incompressible Flow

Applied Mathematics: Body and Soul 4

Johan Hoffman | Claes Johnson

Mathematics / Numerical Analysis

This book, Volume 4 of the book series of the Body and Soul mathematics education reform program, presents a unified new approach to computational simulation of turbulent flow starting from the general basis of calculus and linear algebra covered in Volumes 1 through 3. The book puts the Body and Soul computational finite element methodology in the form of General Galerkin (G2) up against the challenge of computing turbulent solutions of the inviscid Euler equations and the Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity. It shows that direct application of G2 without any turbulence or wall modeling, allows reliable computation on a PC of mean value quantities of turbulent flow such as drag and lift. The text presents new aspects of both mathematics and computation of turbulent flow, and challenges established approaches.

The authors are leading researchers in computational mathematics who have written various successful books.

The authors have been awarded several prizes:

  • Johan Hoffman: Bill Morton Prize, Leslie Fox Prize
  • Claes Johnson: Humboldt Research Prize
