LARGE EDDY SIMULATION WITH ENERGY-CONSERVING SCHEMES AND THE SMAGORINSKY MODEL: A NOTE ON ACCURACY AND COMPUTATIONAL EFFICIENCY

Large Eddy Simulation with Energy-Conserving Schemes and the Smagorinsky Model: A Note on Accuracy and Computational Efficiency

Despite advances in turbulence modelling, the Smagorinsky model remains a popular choice for large eddy simulation (LES) due to its simplicity and ease of use.The dissipation in turbulence energy that the model introduces, is proportional to the Smagorinsky constant, of which many different values have been proposed.These values have been derived f

Compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction among psychologists: Can supervision and a reflective stance be of help?

The pleasure derived from helping others is referred to as compassion satisfaction (CS).When a psychologist feels a too heavy demand to be compassionate and effective in helping, however, this may result in compassion fatigue (CF).CF may take the form of burnout or secondary traumatic stress (STS).The present paper focuses on two factors that may p
