1. Those that use the physical hypothesis of scale similarity (Bardina et. al., 1980)


\tau_{ij} = L_{ij} = \widetilde{\bar{u}_i} \widetilde{\bar{u}_j} - \widetilde{\bar{u}_i \bar{u}_j}


2. Those derived by formal series expansions (Clark et. al., 1979)


\tau_{ij} = G_{ij} = \frac{\Delta^2}{12} \frac{\partial \bar{u}_i}{\partial x_{k}} \frac{\partial \bar{u}_j}{\partial x_{k}}

3. Mixed models, which are based on linear combinations of the eddy-viscosity and structural types


\tau_{ij} = G_{ij}-2\nu_{sgs} S_{ij}

or


\tau_{ij} = L_{ij}-2\nu_{sgs} S_{ij}

4. Dynamic structure models, which divide the modeled SGS stress into a model for the SGS kinetic energy and a model for the structure of the SGS stress tensor (relative weights of each of the components) (Pomraning and Rutland, 2002; Lu et. al. 2007, 2008; Lu and Porte-Agel, 2010)


\tau_{ij} = 2k_{sgs} \left(\frac{L_{ij}}{L_{kk}}\right)

or


\tau_{ij} = 2k_{sgs} \left(\frac{G_{ij}}{G_{kk}}\right)

The transport equation for the SGS kinetic energy can be used to close the model (Pomraning and Rutland, 2002; Lu et. al., 2008)

 \frac{\partial \overline k_{\rm sgs}}{\partial t} + \frac{\partial \overline u_{j} \overline k_{sgs}} {\partial x_{j}} = - \tau_{ij} \frac{\partial \overline u_{i}}{\partial x_{j}}     - C_{\varepsilon} \frac{k_{\rm sgs}^{3/2}}{\Delta} + \frac{\partial}{\partial x_{j}} \left( \nu_t \frac{\partial k_{\rm sgs}}{\partial x_{j}}  \right)

or use a zero-equation procedure (Lu and Porte-Agel, 2010) to predict the SGS kinetic energy.
