Investigation of turbulence in stratified fluids and multi-phase systems, addressing the complexities of mixing and transport phenomena in such environments. - Experimental Techniques:
Application of advanced experimental methodologies, such as particle image velocimetry (PIV) and laser-induced fluorescence, to study turbulence and validate numerical models.
Trending and Emerging
- High Reynolds Number Turbulence:
Increased focus on high Reynolds number flows, particularly non-equilibrium conditions, which are critical in aerospace and engineering applications, as evidenced by numerous studies addressing these scenarios. - Advanced Computational Techniques:
Emergence of innovative computational methods, such as deep learning and reduced-order modeling, which are being applied to turbulence modeling and simulation to improve efficiency and accuracy. - Turbulence in Stratified Flows:
Growing interest in the dynamics of stratified turbulent flows, including interactions with buoyancy and multi-phase systems, which are essential for environmental and industrial applications. - Non-equilibrium Boundary Layer Flows:
Significant research on non-equilibrium turbulent boundary layers, particularly in the context of rough surfaces and complex geometries, indicating a shift towards practical applications in engineering. - Hybrid Modeling Approaches:
Trend towards hybrid turbulence models that combine various techniques, such as LES and RANS, to enhance predictive capabilities in complex flow scenarios.
Declining or Waning
- Classical Turbulence Theory:
Research on traditional turbulence theories, such as Kolmogorov's theories of turbulence, appears to be less prominent, suggesting a shift towards more complex and application-based studies. - Simplified Models:
The use of overly simplified turbulence models that do not account for high Reynolds number effects or complex flow interactions is decreasing, as researchers favor more sophisticated and accurate modeling techniques. - Basic Experimental Studies:
There is a noticeable decline in publications focusing solely on basic experimental studies without substantial theoretical or computational frameworks, indicating a preference for integrated approaches.
