High–Reynolds Number Wall Turbulence (2011, background): “Head & Bandyopadhyay (1981) provided strong experimental evidence for their ubiquitous nature, but it was not until recently that computations by Wu & Moin (2009) corroborated their unambiguous and densely populated presence in boundary layers.”
Direct numerical simulation of spatially developing turbulent boundary layers with uniform blowing or suction (2011, background): “As for the upstream condition, Wu & Moin (2009) reproduce the transition in the upstream region, while the present study adopts the recycle method assuming fully developed turbulence.”
Physics and Computation of Aero-Optics (2012, background): “It is well-established that turbulent boundary layers contain packets of vortical structures with a preferred angular direction (e.g., Adrian 2007, Wu & Moin 2009).”
Colour of turbulence (2016, background): “…layer flows where experiments (Hutchins & Marusic 2007b; Mathis et al. 2009; Monty et al. 2009; Guala et al. 2011; Marusic et al. 2013) and simulations (Wu & Moin 2009; Schlatter & Örlü 2010; Sillero, Jiménez & Moser 2013, 2014) have provided insight into coherent flow structures and statistics.”
Very-large-scale motions in a turbulent boundary layer (2010, methodology): “…motions in a turbulent boundary layer 85 correlation of the streamwise velocity fluctuations were compared with the DNS data of Spalart (1988) and Wu & Moin (2009) and the experimental data of Hutchins & Marusic (2007), as shown in figures 2 and 3; xref and yref are the reference positions for…”
Interactions within the turbulent boundary layer at high Reynolds number (2011, methodology): “Despite the apparent ubiquity of hairpins in the experiments described above and, more recently, in the direct numerical simulation of Wu & Moin (2009), conclusive evidence of their existence has not been detected in the ASL, for example in the studies of Hommema & Adrian (2003) and Morris et al.…”
Turbulent boundary layers and channels at moderate Reynolds numbers (2010, methodology): “Our simulation bypasses transition, and would therefore probably be everywhere different from Wu & Moin (2009), but the newer one by Schlatter et al. (2009) goes through natural transition and, while its initial region is broadly similar to Wu & Moin (2009), it becomes as disorganized as figure 11…”
Generalized conservative approximations of split convective derivative operators (2010, methodology): “Dotted lines: baseline ive approximation (D-CONV); dashed lines: standard (non-conservative) approximation of split convective derivatives (D-); solid lines: ative approximation of split convective derivatives (C-); square symbols: standard split forms FE-SF and BL-SF; circles: density-weighted spli”
Turbulence in supersonic boundary layers at moderate Reynolds number (2011, background): “The iso-surfaces of the vortex strength indicator highlight the presence of a multitude of small-scale, tube-like structures, very few of which have shapes conforming to canonical hairpins, such as those found in transitional or post-transitional flows (Wu & Moin 2009).”
Uniform momentum zones in turbulent boundary layers (2014, result): “…simulations by Schlatter et al. (2014) at moderate Reynolds numbers have also highlighted that hairpin-like structures which extend to the wall are not observed instantaneously, in contrast to the findings of Wu & Moin (2009) (see also discussion in Marusic (2009) regarding this on-going debate).”
Data-driven prediction of unsteady flow over a circular cylinder using deep learning (2018, result): “Similar observations have also been reported in laboratory experiments and numerical simulations (Freymuth 1966; Ruderich & Fernholz 1986; Babucke, Kloker & Rist 2008; Wu & Moin 2009).”
Simulations of Spatially Evolving Turbulent Boundary Layers up to Reθ = 4300 (2010, background): “Very recently, Wu and Moin (2009) performed a spatial DNS of a boundary layer undergoing transition due to a periodically passing box of turbulence; the turbulent state just after transition was located Reθ = 900 close to the outlet.”
