+Description
+    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)
+
+    \verbatim
+    Klein, M., Sadiki, A., and Janicka, J.
+        A digital filter based generation of inflow data for spatially 
+        developing direct numerical or large eddy simulations,
+        Journal of Computational Physics (2003) 186(2):652-665.
+        doi:10.1016/S0021-9991(03)00090-1
+    \endverbatim
+
+    - Forward-stepwise method-based generator (FSM)
+
+    \verbatim
+    Xie, Z.-T., and Castro, I.
+        Efficient generation of inflow conditions for large eddy simulation of 
+        street-scale flows, Flow, Turbulence and Combustion (2008) 81(3):449-470
+        doi:10.1007/s10494-008-9151-5
+    \endverbatim
+
+    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.
+
+    Synthetic turbulence is produced on a virtual rectangular structured-mesh
+    turbulence plane, which is parallel to the actual patch, and is mapped onto
+    the chosen patch by the selected mapping method.

+    Minimal example of the boundary condition specification with commented
+    options:

+    <patchName>
+    {
+        type                turbulentDigitalFilter;
+        variant             digitalFilter;          // reducedDigitalFilter;

+        value               uniform (0 0 0);        // mandatory placeholder

+        isInsideMesh        false;          // placeholder
+        isTaylorHypot       true;           // placeholder
+        mapMethod           nearestCell;    // planarInterpolation
+        threshold           1e-8;
+        modelConst          -1.5707;        //-0.5*PI;
+        perturb             1e-5;
+
+        // Optional entries for only FSM with default input
+        const1FSM           -0.7854         //-0.25*PI;
+        const2FSM           -1.5707;        //-0.5*PI;
+    }
+    \endverbatim 
+
+    Among the dictionary entries, two entries can be input as patch profiles:
+
+    \verbatim
+     - Reynolds stress tensor, R
+     - Mean velocity, UMean
+    \endverbatim
+
+    Profile data and corresponding coordinates are then input in the following
+    directories:
+
+    \verbatim
+     - $FOAM_CASE/constant/boundaryData/\<patchName\>/points
+     - $FOAM_CASE/constant/boundaryData/\<patchName\>/0/\{R|UMean\}
+    \endverbatim
+
+    The profile data and corresponding coordinates take the same form used by
+    the \c timeVaryingMappedFixedValue and \c turbulentDFSEMInlet boundary
+    conditions, consisting of a \c points file containing a list of 3-D
+    coordinates, and profile data files providing a value per coordinate.
+
+    Reynolds stress tensor and mean velocity input are in the global coordinate
+    system whereas integral length scale set input is in the local patch
+    coordinate system.
+
+    It is assumed that the patch normal direction is \c e1, and the remaining
+    patch plane directions are \c e2 and \c e3 following the right-handed
+    coordinate system, which should be taken into consideration when the
+    integral length scale set is input. The first three integral scale entries,
+    i.e. L_e1u, Le1v, Le2w, should always correspond to the length scales
+    that are in association with the convective mean flow direction.
+
+Note
+    - \c mapMethod \c planarInterpolation option requires point coordinates
+    which can form a plane, thus input point coordinates varying only in a
+    single direction will trigger error.
+    - \c adjustTimeStep = true option is not fully supported at the moment.
