Performing LES of compressible flows is a challenging affair. On the one hand, one strives to minimize numerical dissipation to preserve ‘all’ scales of motions. On the other hand, introducing some dissipation is necessary to guarantee numerical stability near sharp gradients and to capture shocks....
