Strong shear layers in high Reynolds number turbulence obtained by large-scale direct numerical simulation of turbulence.
Essential understanding of turbulent flow phenomena and improvement of turbulent models are indispensable for elucidating, predicting, and controlling complex flows related to heat and mass transport. Data-driven science is a novel approach to understanding and controlling nonlinear phenomena such as turbulence. In our laboratory, we study various challenges related to turbulent flow, called the last problem in classical physics, using data science methods such as numerical simulation, dynamical systems analysis, statistical physics, optimization, and machine learning. We will develop data-driven computing methods and build a platform of engineering applications in cooperation with scientists in other research areas and industries.
