The field of Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and hybrids is a
vibrant research area. This book runs through all the potential
unsteady modelling fidelity ranges, from low-order to LES. The
latter is probably the highest fidelity for practical aerospace
systems modelling. Cutting edge new frontiers are defined.
One example of a pressing environmental concern is noise. For the
accurate prediction of this, unsteady modelling is needed. Hence
computational aeroacoustics is explored. It is also emerging that
there is a critical need for coupled simulations. Hence, this area
is also considered and the tensions of utilizing such simulations
with the already expensive LES.
This work has relevance to the general field of CFD and LES and
to a wide variety of non-aerospace aerodynamic systems (e.g. cars,
submarines, ships, electronics, buildings). Topics treated include
unsteady flow techniques; LES and hybrids; general numerical
methods; computational aeroacoustics; computational aeroelasticity;
coupled simulations and turbulence and its modelling (LES, RANS,
transition, VLES, URANS). The volume concludes by pointing forward
to future horizons and in particular the industrial use of LES. The
writing style is accessible and useful to both academics and
industrial practitioners.
From the reviews:
"Tucker's volume provides a very welcome, concise discussion of
current capabilities for simulating and modellng unsteady
aerodynamic flows. It covers the various possible numerical
techniques in good, clear detail and presents a very wide range of
practical applications; beautifully illustrated in many cases. This
book thus provides a valuable text for practicing engineers, a rich
source of background information for students and those new to this
area of Research & Development, and an excellent
state-of-the-art review for others. A great achievement."

""This is a very useful book with a widecoverage of many aspects in
unsteadyaerodynamics methoddevelopment and applicationsfor internal
and external flows."

Engineering, Oxford University, U.K."
"This comprehensive book ranges from classical concepts in both
numerical methods and turbulence modelling approaches for the
beginner to latest state-of-the-art for the advanced practitioner
and constitutes an extremely valuable contribution to the specific
Computational Fluid Dynamics literature in Aeronautics. Student and
expert alike will benefit greatly by reading it from cover to
cover."
