Extra Strain Rates in an unsteady spilling breaking wave

Abstract We analyze the extra strain rates that characterize a curved, thin mixing layer induced at an unsteady spilling breaker. We focus on the flow curvature, which induces some extra rates of strain that should be accounted for in algebraic-type turbulence closures. The comparison between the an...
