Direct numerical simulation of wind turbulence over breaking waves

Z Yang, BQ Deng, L Shen - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2018 - cambridge.org
We study wind turbulence over breaking waves based on direct numerical simulation (DNS)
of two-fluid flows. In the DNS, the air and water are simulated as a coherent system, with the …

Revised estimates of ocean surface drag in strong winds
