Abstract
Finite element methods provide very low dissipation, higher order accurate discretizations for use in scale resolving simulations of turbulence. Their ability to use unstructured grids to match grid resolution to the local needs of the scale resolving simulation makes them particularly attractive and efficient for complex geometry flows and more fundamental flows with a large spatial variation in the smallest required scale that ...
