Fractal scaling and simulation of velocity components and turbulent shear stress in open channel flow

Moreover, the fractal dimension of Reynolds shear stress in bursting events (outward interaction, ejection, inward interaction, and sweep) was calculated and compared with each other. There were some differences among the fractal dimension of Reynolds shear stress for four quadrants of bursting process. The fractal dimension of u′v′ in sweep and ejection events were more than the fractal dimension of the overall Reynolds shear stress.
