Implicit time-stepping for advection is applied locally in space and time where Courant numbers are large, but standard explicit time-stepping is used for the remaining solution which is typically the majority. This adaptively implicit…
We consider the movement of a particle advected by a random flow of the form $\vv+\delta \bF(\vx)$, with $\vv\in\R^d$ a constant drift, $\bF(\vx)$ -- the fluctuation -- given by a zero mean, stationary random field and $\delta\ll 1$ so that…
We consider planar traveling fronts between stable steady states in two-component singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion-advection equations, where a small quantity $\delta^2$ represents the ratio of diffusion coefficients. The fronts…
Incompressible flows can be effective mixers by appropriately advecting a passive tracer to produce small filamentation length scales. In addition, diffusion is generally perceived as beneficial to mixing due to its ability to homogenise a…
We use direct numerical simulations to compute turbulent transport coefficients for passive scalars in turbulent rotating flows. Effective diffusion coefficients in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the rotations axis are…
We study statistical properties of the process $Y(t)$ of a passive advection by quenched random layered flows in situations when the inter-layer transfer is governed by a fractional Brownian motion $X(t)$ with the Hurst index $H \in (0,1)$.…
