About this title

Synopsis

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of compressible flows is still a widely unexplored area of research. The authors, whose books are considered the most relevant monographs in this field, provide the reader with a comprehensive state-of-the-art presentation of the available LES theory and application. This book is a sequel to "Large Eddy Simulation for Incompressible Flows", as most of the research on LES for compressible flows is based on variable density extensions of models, methods and paradigms that were developed within the incompressible flow framework. The book addresses both the fundamentals and the practical industrial applications of LES in order to point out gaps in the theoretical framework as well as to bridge the gap between LES research and the growing need to use it in engineering modeling.

About the Author

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".
