“…One thing common to all the above methods is that their results are meaningful only when a su$cient spatial resolution is employed; therefore, these methods are memory intensive and require a lot of processing time. Ohya et al (1992) demonstrated that using a 2-D analysis it was possible to simulate the discontinuity of Strouhal number for 6)06B/D68)0 at Re"10. Nozu & Tamura (1997) pointed out the variation of #ow mechanisms around a square cylinder using 3-D computation, showing that 3-D structures begin to appear already as early as Re"2;10, and clusters of small-scale eddies which are a manifestation of three-dimensionality exist in the vortex structure of the wake at Re"10.…”
