Digital-Filter Based Synthetic Turbulence Generation Method for LES/DES Inflow

See merge request !235

The following three synthetic turbulence inflow boundary conditions are
examined through single-cell-domain smooth-wall plane channel flow setup:

- turbulentDFSEMInlet
- turbulentDigitalFilterInlet variant=digitalFilter
- turbulentDigitalFilterInlet variant=reducedDigitalFilter

The examinations are performed in terms of the first-/second-order turbulence
statistics provided by (Moser et al., (1999)) doi.org/10.1063/1.869966
from smooth-wall plane channel flow direct numerical simulations at Re=395.

Serial executing:

./Allrun

Parallel (decompositionMethod=scotch) executing:

./Allrunparallel

    Velocity boundary condition generating synthetic turbulence-alike
    time-series for LES and DES turbulent flow computations.

    To this end, two synthetic turbulence generators can be chosen:
    - Digital-filter method-based generator (DFM)

    In DFM or FSM, a random number set (mostly white noise), and a group
    of target statistics (mostly mean flow, Reynolds stress tensor profiles and
    length-scale sets) are fused into a new number set (stochastic time-series,
    yet consisting of the statistics) by a chain of mathematical operations
    whose characteristics are designated by the target statistics, so that the
    realised statistics of the new sets could match the target.

    Random number sets ---->-|
                             |
                         DFM or FSM ---> New stochastic time-series consisting
                             |           turbulence statistics
    Turbulence statistics ->-|

    The main difference between DFM and FSM is that the latter replaces the
    streamwise convolution summation in DFM by a simpler and a quantitatively
    justified equivalent procedure in order to reduce computational costs.
    Accordingly, the latter potentially brings resource advantages for
    computations involving relatively large length-scale sets and small
    time-steps.

Integration adjoint

See merge request !269

A set of libraries and executables creating a workflow for performing
gradient-based optimisation loops. The main executable (adjointOptimisationFoam)
solves the flow (primal) equations, followed by the adjoint equations and,
eventually, the computation of sensitivity derivatives.

Current functionality supports the solution of the adjoint equations for
incompressible turbulent flows, including the adjoint to the Spalart-Allmaras
turbulence model and the adjoint to the nutUSpaldingWallFunction, [1], [2].

Sensitivity derivatives are computed with respect to the normal displacement of
boundary wall nodes/faces (the so-called sensitivity maps) following the
Enhanced Surface Integrals (E-SI) formulation, [3].
