| Abstract | To investigate a range of phenomena arising in stratified flow over complex terrain, including flow separation, lee vortex generation, gravity wave drag, wake structure and boundary layer modification. An adaptive time-dependent numerical model using an unstructured tetrahedral mesh will be developed. The model will be designed to run on massively parallel computer architectures. The numerical modelling will be validated by means of comparisonswith laboratory and field data. | |
