Abstract
In this paper, the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) are applied to analyze the 3D late transitional flow on the flat plate obtained from direct numerical simulation (DNS). POD is used to find the most persistent spatial structures while DMD is used to find single frequency modes. The Omesga method is applied as a vortex identification to visualize vortices with isosurfaces Ω = 0.52. The results in POD and DMD are discussed and compared to show the same and different features such as shapes, amplitudes and time evolutions.
