The turbulent channel flow database is produced from a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of wall bounded flow with periodic boundary conditions in the longitudinal and transverse directions, and no-slip conditions at the top and bottom walls. In the simulation, the Navier-Stokes equations are solved using a wall {normal, velocity {vorticity formulation. Solutions to the governing equations are provided using a Fourier-Galerkin pseudo-spectral method for the longitudinal and transverse directions and seventh-order Basis-splines (B-splines) collocation method in the wall normal direction. De-aliasing is performed using the 3/2-rule [3]. Temporal integration is performed using a low-storage, third-order Runge-Kutta method. Initially, the flow is driven using a constant volume flux control (imposing a bulk channel mean velocity of U = 1) until stationary conditions are reached. Then the control is changed to a constant applied mean pressure gradient forcing term equivalent to the shear stress resulting from the prior steps. Additional iterations are then performed to further achieve statistical stationarity before outputting fields.more » « less

Many physical-layer security works in the literature rely on purely theoretical work or simulated results to establish the value of physical-layer security in securing communications. We consider the secrecy capacity of a wireless Gaussian wiretap channel using channel sounding measurements to analyze the potential for secure communication in a real-world scenario. A multi-input, multi-output, multi-eavesdropper (MIMOME) system is deployed using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) over an 802.11n wireless network. Channel state information (CSI) measurements were taken in an indoor environment to analyze time-varying scenarios and spatial variations. It is shown that secrecy capacity is highly affected by environmental changes, such as foot traffic, network congestion, and propagation characteristics of the physical environment. We also present a numerical method for calculating MIMOME secrecy capacity in general and comment on the use of OFDM with regard to calculating secrecy capacity.more » « less
