Fluctuations of Turbulent Bed Shear Stress
With the assumption that the bed shear stress fluctuates in a lognormal fashion, the probability density function (pdf) of the standardised bed shear stress is derived as a function of the relative shear stress intensity. The pdf is more skewed with larger relative intensities, but approaches a Gaussian function when the relative intensity is small. The computed pdf agrees well with the reporte...
متن کاملMultiscale interactions between surface shear stress and velocity in turbulent boundary layers
[1] Understanding and quantifying the multiscale interactions between surface shear stress and velocity in the boundary layer is essential to improving boundary condition parameterizations used in numerical models of turbulent boundary layers. In this study, high-frequencymeasurements obtained in a wind tunnel are used to identify dominant scales of interaction (quantified in terms of scale-dep...
متن کاملInstabilities in turbulent boundary layers
An investigation of a model of turbulence generation in the wall region of a turbulent boundary layer is made through direct numerical simulations. The model is based on the instability of a streak. First, a laminar boundary layer disturbed by a continuous blowing through a slot is simulated in order to reproduce and further investigate the results reported from the experiments of Acarlar & Smi...
متن کاملBoundary shear stress measurements in undular flows: Application to standing wave bed forms
Waters flowing in natural streams and rivers have the ability to scour and to deposit materials, hence to change the bed topography. It is recognized that undular flows have great potential for sediment transport. In the present study, a fixed-bed model was used to investigate the spatial variations of boundary shear stress under standing waves (i.e., undular flow). The results (Figure 8) highl...
متن کاملTransitional-turbulent spots and turbulent-turbulent spots in boundary layers.
Two observations drawn from a thoroughly validated direct numerical simulation of the canonical spatially developing, zero-pressure gradient, smooth, flat-plate boundary layer are presented here. The first is that, for bypass transition in the narrow sense defined herein, we found that the transitional-turbulent spot inception mechanism is analogous to the secondary instability of boundary-laye...
