The dynamic interplay between surface and subsurface flow in the presence of a permeable
boundary was investigated using low and high frame-rate particle-image velocimetry …

Large-eddy simulations (LES) are conducted to study the transport of momentum and
passive scalar within and over a real urban canopy in the City of Boston, USA. This urban …

In this study, a series of large-eddy simulations are conducted to explore the dynamics of
turbulence within the urban canopy. Two idealized urban-like geometries (staggered and …

In the present work, a boundary layer developing over a rough-wall consisting of staggered
cubes with a plan area packing density λ p= 25% is studied within the wind tunnel using …

Hot-wire measurements were performed in a zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary
layer overlying both a smooth and a rough wall for the purpose of investigating the details of …

Urban wind power shows a great potential and plays a significant role for a sustainable city.
As a fundamental issue, the interaction between the wind-turbine wake and a building array …

High-Reynolds-number experiments are conducted in the roughness sublayer of a turbulent
boundary layer developing over a cubical canopy. Stereoscopic particle image velocimetry …

The sinusoidal roughness effect is investigated using a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of
a spatially developing turbulent boundary layer (TBL) over three-dimensional sinusoidal …

We describe and explain the turbulent processes at play in the lower part of the urban
boundary layer through performing a large-eddy simulation of the flow over an urban-like …

In the present study, we perform a series of water-tunnel experiments to investigate the flow
around an in-line sphere array at the Reynolds number of 1000, based on the free-stream …
