Funded Activity Summary

Systematically model the large-scale complexity of turbulent floods and thin film flows. This project continues development of new models, and computer simulation, of turbulent flood, river and estuarine flow. The models will be based systematically upon established turbulence models to resolve accurately the complex physical processes. The development of new and robust computer models for thin layers of coating fluid will aid many industrial processes. We also aim to provide correct initial conditions and boundary conditions for simpler cases of the above flows. The approach leads to a greater understanding of the range of applicability of the models through better estimating the errors in the modelling process. The project develops a fundamental enabling methodology for engineering and the sciences.
