DNS of the flow around 5:1 rectangular cylinder (credits: A. Cimarelli, A. Leonforte, D. Angeli)

BARC in a nutshell

BARC addresses the high Reynolds number, external, unsteady flow around a stationary, sharp-edged rectangular cylinder, and the associated aerodynamic actions.

The breadth (B) to depth (D) ratio is set equal to 5:1.

Given the possible interest of Research Institutions and Industries operating in different fields of Engineering, BARC addresses both numerical and experimental approaches.
