Variational Multiscale Residual-driven Turbulence Modeling for Large Eddy Simulation of Incompressible Flow

The objectives of recent variational multiscale work in turbulence have been to capture all scales consistently and to avoid use of eddy viscosities altogether. This holds the promise of more accurate and efficient LES procedures. In this work, we describe a new variational multiscale formulation, which makes considerable progress toward these goals.
