The dynamics of transitional and turbulent flows is often dominated by organized structures with a life-time much longer than a characteristic time scale of the surrounding small-scale turbulence. Organized structures may appear as secondary flows as a result of an instability but they persist in turbulent flows. They manifest themselves as eddies or localized vortices and play an important role in e.g. mixing and transport processes. Al though the existence of organized structures has been revealed by many experiments and by numerical simulations they are somewhat elusive, as there is no consensus on how to define them and technically how ...

Reviews for IUTAM Symposium on Simulation and Identification of Organized Structures in Flows
`I have read this book with great interest and found that most papers provide something new, inspiring, and applicable in hydraulic research. In summary, this book is a valuable source of information that should stimulate new approaches and developments in hydraulic research, especially in studying the physics of hydraulic resistance, sediment transport, flow-biota interactions, and ...
