Log-layer mismatch and modeling of the fluctuating wall stress in wall-modeled large-eddy simulations

XIA Yang, GI Park, P Moin - Physical review fluids, 2017 - APS
Log-layer mismatch refers to a chronic problem found in wall-modeled large-eddy simulation
(WMLES) or detached-eddy simulation, where the modeled wall-shear stress deviates from …

Pressure gradient effects on the large-scale structure of turbulent boundary layers
