A proposed modification of the Germano subgrid-scale closure method

Open publisher page 4,053 citations

Abstract

The subgrid-scale closure method developed by Germano et al. is modified by use of a least squares technique to minimize the difference between the closure assumption and the resolved stresses. This modification removes a source of singularity and is believed to improve the method’s applicability.
