The present study aims at analysing the Boussinesq constitutive relation validity in a corner separation flow of a compressor cascade. The Boussinesq constitutive relation is commonly used in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations for turbomachinery design. It assumes an alignment between the Reynolds stress tensor and the zero-trace mean strain-rate tensor. An indicator that measures the alignment between these tensors is used to test the validity of this assumption in a high fidelity large-eddy simulation. Eddy-viscosities are also computed using the LES database and compared. A large-eddy simulation (LES) of a LMFA-NACA65 compressor cascade, in which a corner separation is present, is considered as reference. With LES, both the Reynolds stress tensor and the mean strain-rate tensor are known, which allows the construction of the indicator and the eddy-viscosities. Two constitutive relations are evaluated. The first one is the Boussinesq constitutive relation, while the second one is the quadratic constitutive relation (QCR), expected to render more anisotropy, thus to present a better alignment between the tensors. The Boussinesq constitutive relation is rarely valid, but the QCR tends to improve the alignment. The improvement is mainly present at the inlet, upstream of the corner separation. At the outlet, the correction is milder. The eddy-viscosity built with the LES results are of the same order of magnitude as those built as the ratio of the turbulent kinetic energy k and the turbulence specific dissipation rate ω. They also show that the main impact of the QCR is to rotate the mean strain-rate tensor in order to realign it with the Reynolds stress tensor, without dilating it.

Seismic Moment Release

We analysed the one-year-long seismic swarm at the Alban Hills volcano which occurred during 1989-1990. We portray spatial distribution of seismic moment release, better delineating the activated volume during the swarm. The seismic structure is imaged as a 7-km long, 3-km wide, and 3-km thick volume, located between 2 and 5 km depth, and NW-SE striking. Fault plane solutions and scalar seismic moments for the largest earthquakes provide the description of the average strain rate tensor. The principal strain rate axes show a dominant extension in NE-SW direction, a SE-NW direction of compression and a negligible thickening rate. P and T axes direction of the smaller earthquakes suggests that the same mode of deformation is distributed all over the activated volume. These results are discussed in terms of seismic deforming processes active at the Alban Hills volcano, in the frame of magmatic inflation recently invoked to explain the rapid vertical uplift affecting part of the volcano. The observed average deformation is consistent with shear failures occurring on faults connecting stress-oriented dykes in response to an increasing fluid pressure.

Thickness Variations

In a study of the Rutford Ice Stream, strain rates were measured on a transverse section. Magnitudes ranged up to 40 × 10−3 a−1 but were typically in the order of 3 × 10−3 a−1 with an error of 0.1 χ 10−3 a−1. Variations in the strain rate between adjacent stakes of 0.2 χ 10−3 a−1 to 2 × 10−3 a−1 were matched to the thickness variations on the glacier. For each set of three adjacent stakes, the velocity gradient components of the surface strain rate tensor were calculated by assuming that the gradients were linear over the distance between adjacent stakes. When plotted against distance across the ice stream, each strain rate component revealed different aspects of the flow field. The longitudinal strain rate was compressive, with an almost constant magnitude of 10−3 a−1. The lateral strain rate is extensive, with an average value of 1.1 × 10−3 a−1 which agreed with the angle between the divergent flow lines observed on a Landsat image. Peaks in the lateral strain rate, corresponding to longitudinal bands of thicker ice, showed that these thicker bands were spreading more rapidly at the expense of thinner areas. The two velocity gradient components of the shear rate tensor also reflected differences in ice thickness.
