    Understanding Turbulence Modeling Methods: LES, RANS, and DNS Explained

    Thanx bro! That does help a lot... I also asked some of my professors, and they did help me as well...Now except for the mathematics of these techniques, I think I have a fair enough idea of what they are. Thanks again!

    Understanding Turbulence Modeling Methods: LES, RANS, and DNS Explained

    I am a Mechanical engineering grad student..I just do not want you to be using terms a fluid dynamicist would be using teaching a physics grad student :) Your answer can be as in-depth as it could get without confusing me ..

    Understanding Turbulence Modeling Methods: LES, RANS, and DNS Explained

    Can anybody please provide me any information on the LES, RANS and DNS? What is the basic vice of each and what are the differences? Why use one over the other? And additionally, are there any online lectures/videos that would help me understand the turbulence modelling methods better? Please...

    Engineering Help : MS in Physics after Engineering in Mechanical

    Can that be made up for by taking some courses before the graduate program begins? Coz I have enquired with some program admins in the US universities and they said there are people from Engg backgrounds who are pursuing (have pursued) MS in Physics at their universities.

    Engineering Help : MS in Physics after Engineering in Mechanical

    fss thanks for your reply. I would like to know on what grounds did you conclude I would not be Qualified enough for the program. Again, this is not like asking why you said that, but I would seriously like to have your opinion so that I could make a fair judgement of my own. Again, thanks a lot...

    Engineering Help : MS in Physics after Engineering in Mechanical

    I am a Mechanical Engineer with two years of experience in CAD and manufacturing domain. I am planning for my MS. I have always been inclined towards physics. I want it to be the subject I take up for MS. What would you advise ? I don't know what field I would be suitable for, after I complete...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    To all those who think i should have had put the question in better words, i accept i wasnt able to put it in words you physicists would have done. But am glad you could still understand my question,and gave your valuable opinions..i would request all to overlook any lingo errors and continue...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    @ zielwolf - Thanks for your insight.. I am in complete agreement with your view of the feasibility of any experiment to test the existence of that 'non-state'...maybe we will never be able to come across anything that might be in the wildest fashion related to that 'not-state'..hence, I demand...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    There are two ways you can take my question. Either you can find Langauge errors and discard the question; OR you can be a realist and perceive the question in the sense in which I have asked (and many others have understood), having accepted that there are some lingo errors. "Before" here does...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    @ Chronos - Please elucidate your response with some supporting explanations. Just mentioning Q. Physics bizarre is not enough.

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    I do not find the fact that the light could travel for infinite time covering infinite distance indigestible; Just that there IS infinite space for it to travel that sounds impossible. I mean, how can one event result into something infinite in nature. I don't believe there is any other event...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    That is my very question. The fact that it will(or at least we assume it will) travel forever in space is not digestible. I have read about the spherical interpretation of the nature of space (which allows that ray of light to travel endlessly on the surface of the sphere but raises the question...

    State of the Universe before Big Bang

    We can safely assume that Big Bang is the accepted answer to the question "How did the Universe, as we know it today, come into existence ?" I will split my question in two parts - 1) What existed before the big bang ? I know Time and Space came into existence AFTER the Big Bang ; but its...

    What would a dimension with unstable forces be like?

    I am no physics major either...but can grasp some of it...But I am a big big fan of sci-fi... ==> Another Dimension? A good idea...but if you need to give your story a mind-bender angle, make that dimension 'TIME'...Say your antagonist takes the protagonist's mother back in time (what i mean...
