With applications to climate, technology, and industry, the modeling and numerical simulation of turbulent flows are rich with history and modern relevance. The complexity of the problems that arise in the study of turbulence requires tools from various scientific disciplines, including mathematics, physics, engineering and computer science.

Authored by two experts in the area with a long history of collaboration, this monograph provides a current, detailed look at several turbulence models from both the theoretical and numerical perspectives. The k-epsilon, large-eddy simulation and other models are rigorously derived and their performance is analyzed using benchmark simulations for real-world turbulent flows.

"Mathematical and Numerical Foundations of Turbulence Models and Applications" is an ideal reference for students in applied mathematics and engineering, as well as researchers in mathematical and numerical fluid dynamics. It is also a valuable resource for advanced graduate students in fluid dynamics, engineers, physical oceanographers, meteorologists and climatologists.

There is no sanctuary for American business in the business war that is taking place today. Our competition is using our best practices against us and in many cases improving on them.

It is impossible to name a single discipline, professional skill, or business practice that is not being outsourced. This means that we must rethink our total business and its structures in a new way because everything that we have of now is obsolete.

This book introduces several exciting new concepts and can make a significant impact on the success of American business. A few of them that are discussed as follows: Adapting the Military Command Center to the Business Command Center will increase our speed and flexibility to react to market needs and opportunities quicker than our competition.

Circulatory Management obsoletes the traditional management structure that was built by the Roman Empire and will compliment the Command Center.

These two new ideas will reduce 50% of meetings and will eliminate silo kingdoms and waste. It will force the focus on critical objectives daily as output from the Command Center.

Using a WWII wingman approach, establish wingmen for all staff directors compensating them on their total results. These are the major concepts that are reinforced by proven fundamentals to buy time for the management teams to make the transition.
