The data reside on several nodes and disks on our database cluster computer and are stored in small 3D subcubes. Positions are indexed using a Z-curve for efficient access. Access to the data is facilitated by a Web services interface that permits numerical experiments to be run across the Internet. We offer C and Fortran interfaces layered above Web services so that scientists can use familiar programming tools on their client platforms (MATLAB under development). Calls to fetch subsets of the data can be made directly from within a program being executed on the client's platform. Manual queries for data at individual points and times via web-browser are also supported. Evaluation of velocity and pressure at arbitrary points and time is supported using interpolations executed on the database nodes. Spatial differentiation using various order approximations (up to 8th order) are also supported (for details, see documentation page). Other functions such as spatial filtering are being developed. So far the database contains a 1024⁴ space-time history of a direct numerical simulation of isotropic turbulent flow, in incompressible fluid in 3D. The simulation was performed using 1024 grid points in each direction using a pseudo-spectral method, and forcing at large scales. The database allows access to 1024 time steps covering about one integral turn-over time-scale of the turbulence. The dataset comprises 27 Terabytes of data. Basic characteristics of the data sets can be found in the dataset description page. Technical details about the database techniques used for this project are described in the publications. The Turbulence Database Cluster project is funded by the US National Science Foundation .

The Turbulence Database is on-line but may periodcally be unavailable as we continue to add functionalities.
