In order to gain insight into the one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model of Kerstein [1] as it pertains to residual stress closure in large-eddy simulation (LES), we develop ensemble mean closure (EMC), an algebraic stress closure based on the mappings and time scale physics employed in ODT. To allow analytic determination of the stress the ODT model is simplified, conceptually, such that eddy ...

During the Austral summer of 2006–07 a series of extreme oceanic events occurred in the Tasman Sea. Following a series of strong wind-driven upwelling events, an intense cold-core eddy developed off Sydney, Australia. A data-assimilating, eddy-resolving ocean model is used to create a threedimensional time-varying reanalysis of these events. The reanalysis indicates that the cold anomalies asso...

A forced KdV equation including the special topography effect is derived to describe nonlinear long wave and solitary eddy based on quasi-geostrophic potential vorticity model. We obtain theoretical solution of concrete form stream function through perturbation theory multi-scale analysis methods. It found that joint weak shear basic flow can change cyclone anticyclone structure eddy, in meanti...

Large eddy simulation (LES) seeks to predict the dynamics of spatially filtered turbulent flows. The very essence is that the LES-solution contains only scales of size ≥ , where denotes some user-chosen length scale. This property enables us to perform a LES when it is not feasible to compute the full, turbulent solution of the Navier-Stokes equations. Therefore, in case the large eddy simulati...

Communicated by D.B. Spalding) A model equation for the scalar dissipation rate, based on the Two Scale Direct Interaction Approximation (TSDIA) of Yoshizawa [1J was solved and applied to a turbulent round jet in conjunction with turbulence modelling based on the eddy viscosity and diffusivity. The model coefficients were adjusted by using a similarity analysis for the round jet. This led to an...

Pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR at high magnetic is used to study molecular self-diffusion of ethylene, ethane, and propylene in a 2-ethylimidazole (eIm) linker-doped ZIF-8. These eIm-doped materials were synthesized by incorporating increasing fractions the non-native eIm linker, which substitutes native 2-methylimidazole linker ZIF-8 framework. Self-diffusion three hydrocarbon gases was measu...

[1] The closure problem of turbulence arises because nonlinear interactions among turbulent fluctuations (eddies) lead to an infinite hierarchy of moment equations for flow statistics. Here we demonstrate with an idealized general circulation model (GCM) that many atmospheric flow statistics can already be recovered if the hierarchy of moment equations is truncated at second order, correspondin...

Pouchitis is the most frequent complication of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for treatment of ulcerative colitis. There are several possible explanations. Among them, we focus on the one that considers pouchitis as an extracolonic manifestation of ulcerative colitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between pouchitis and extra-intestinal manifestations (EIM), which are fr...
