We study analytically and numerically the corrections to scaling in turbulence which arise due to the finite ratio of the outer scale $L$ of turbulence to the viscous scale $\eta$, i.e., they are due to finite size effects as anisotropic…

Quantum turbulence is numerically studied by solving the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. Introducing both the energy dissipation at small scales and the energy injection at large scales, we succeed in obtaining the steady turbulence made by the…

We observe a crossover from strong to weak chaos in the spatiotemporal evolution of multiple site excitations within disordered chains with cubic nonlinearity. Recent studies have shown that Anderson localization is destroyed, and the wave…

Recent studies of turbulence in superfluid Helium indicate that turbulence in quantum fluids obeys a Kolmogorov scaling law. Such a law was previously attributed to classical solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations of motion. It is…
