Presidential Young Investigators Award: New Directions in Computational Fluid Dynamics

这项研究是由一位年轻的总统研究员进行的，主要研究流体流动中的混合、湍流、不稳定性和相干涡旋结构。主要的工具将是计算流体力学(CFD)，因此这项研究也包含了开发准确和高效的计算技术和计算机体系结构的强大组成部分。CFD中更好、更快的方法将允许预测更复杂的流动，到目前为止，这些流动还没有被模拟，但只有实验才能实现。

This research by a Presidential Young Investigator is focused on mixing, turbulence, instabilities, and coherent vortex structures in fluid flows. The principal tool will be computational fluid dynamics (CFD), so that the research also contains a strong component towards developing accurate and efficient computational techniques and computer architectures. Better and faster methods in CFD will permit the prediction of more complex flows, heretofore not simulated but accessible only to experiments.
