In modern learning environments, the lecturer or educational designer is often confronted with multi-national student cohorts, requiring special consideration regarding language, cultural norms and taboos, religion, and ethics. Through a somewhat provocative example we demonstrate that taking such factors into account can be essential to avoid embarrassment and harm to individual learners’ cult...

Large eddy simulation (LES) is regarded as one of the most promising numerical methods to predict unsteady turbulent flows at high Reynolds number. In LES the flow field is decomposed into grid and subgrid scales. The grid scale (GS) flow field is computed numerically using discrete filtered Navier-Stokes equation with a model for the subgrid scale (SGS) stress. Therefore, the reliability of th...
