Colloquium FLUID DYNAMICS 2009

Conference - Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v.v.i., Prague, October 21 – 23, 2009

The Colloquium will be held in the building of the Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR in Prague. The purpose of the Colloquium is to bring together experts on theoretical and experimental fluid mechanics from the academician institutes, universities and other research and development establishments and to offer the opportunity to exchange up-to-date information on the solved problems and to serve as a forum of discussion with leading scientists.  »»» 

Phase Reconstruction of Shear Layer Instabilities Using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition

Lecture - Dr. Kilian Oberleithner, Technische Universität Berlin, Fachgebiet Experimentelle Strömungsmechanik, Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v. v. i., Dolejškova 5, Prague, lecture room B , September 25, 2009 (Friday), 10:00-11:00

Abstract:
Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) is widely used in the field of Reduced Order Modeling (ROM). Based on a large data set of a turbulent flow, a few POD modes are sufficient to characterize the dynamics of the underlying flow. Instability waves that grow in turbulent shear layers are usually represented by two coupled POD modes.  »»»
