โฆ Synopsis
Different realizations of variational multiscale (VMS) methods within the framework of finite element methods are studied in turbulent channel flow simulations. One class of VMS methods uses bubble functions to model resolved small scales whereas the other class contains the definition of the resolved small scales by an explicit projection in its set of equations. All methods are employed with eddy viscosity models of Smagorinsky type. The simulations are performed on grids for which a Direct Numerical Simulation blows up in finite time.

An algebraic variational multiscale-multigrid method is proposed for large eddy simulation of turbulent flow. Level-transfer operators from plain aggregation algebraic multigrid methods are employed for scale separation. In contrast to earlier approaches based on geometric multigrid methods, this pu
