Proper Orthogonal Decomposition Based

Prof. Roger Shaw (University of California, Davis) describes new developments in the analysis of the turbulent velocity fields in vegetative canopies, using proper orthogonal decomposition (a technique for eddy identification first introduced by J. Lumley in 1967). He argues that this technique complements the previous studies based on statistical models and large eddy simulation numerical methods. 

For microfluidic systems with strong nonlinear effects, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD)-based MOR (also called Karhunen-Loeve decomposition) is employed to locate the low-dimensional subspace for modeling. POD is...
