Abstract

This talk addresses the mathematical approach in which we bridge some of the gap between theory and computational practices. Accurate, efficient and reliable simulation of turbulent flows is an essential difficulty in many current industrial applications. Mathematical insights into physical fidelity of the turbulence models of fluid will enable such simulations. To that end, I will present the investigation of the energy cascade and a numerical analysis of the Crank-Nicholson scheme for an attractive family of models. The analysis will be followed by numerical experiments
