Finite element LES and VMS methods on tetrahedral meshes

摘要

Finite element methods for problems given in complex domains are often based on tetrahedral meshes. This paper demonstrates that the so-called rational Large Eddy Simulation model and a projection-based Variational Multiscale method can be extended in a straightforward way to tetrahedral meshes. Numerical studies are performed with an inf–sup stable second order pair of finite elements with discontinuous pressure approximation.
