Modeling of structural uncertainties in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes closures. M. Emory, J. Larsson and G. Iaccarino. Physics of Fluids, 25(11):110822, 2013. (URL)
Estimation of the uncertainty in numerical predictions by Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes closures is a vital step in building confidence in such predictions. An approach to model-form uncertainty quantification that does not assume the eddy-viscosity hypothesis to be exact is proposed. The methodology for estimation of uncertainty is demonstrated for plane channel flow, for a duct with secondary flows, and for the shock/boundary-layer interaction over a transonic bump.
