TurBase: A Software Platform for Research in Experimental and Numerical Fluid Dynamics

We present a software infrastructure for the research community working on turbulence and complex flows (TurBase), an easily accessible web platform for high quality data. Its main goal is to host, standardize and manage a large collections of heterogeneous experimental and numerical data sets from high-end European fluid dynamics experimental facilities and from High Performance Computational centres. TurBase offers scalable performances when accessing/uploading/searching data, providing at the same time maximum flexibility and power (through Jupyter notebooks) when doing online computation directly on big datasets.
