Large Eddy Simulation is a relatively new and still evolving computatio- nal strategy for predicting turbulent flows. It is now widely used in research to elucidate fundamental interactions in physics of turbulence, to predict phe- nomena which are closely linked to the unsteady features of turbulence and to create data bases against which statistical closure models can be asses- sed. However, its applicability to complex industrial flows, to which statisti- cal models are applied routinely, has not been established with any degree of confidence. There is, in particular, a question mark...

This volume reflects the state of the art of numerical simulation of transitional and turbulent flows and provides an active forum for discussion of recent developments in simulation techniques and understanding of flow physics. Following the tradition of earlier DLES workshops, these papers address numerous theoretical and physical aspects of transitional and turbulent flows. At an applied level it contributes to the solution of problems related to energy production, transportation, magneto-hydrodynamics and the environment. A special session is devoted to quality issues of LES. The ninth...
