We study the Lagrangian flow associated to velocity fields arising from various models of fluid mechanics subject to white-in-time, $H^s$-in-space stochastic forcing in a periodic box. We prove that in many circumstances, these flows are…
We investigate the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with variable density. The aim is to prove existence and uniqueness results in the case of discontinuous ini- tial density. In dimension n = 2, 3, assuming only that the initial…

High resolution numerical simulations of stationary inverse energy cascade in two-dimensional turbulence are presented. Deviations from Gaussianity of velocity differences statistics are quantitatively investigated. The level of statistical…
In our recent works we proposed a theory of turbulence in inertial gas flow via the mean field effect of an intermolecular potential. We found that, in inertial flow, turbulence indeed spontaneously develops from a laminar initial…
We use an acoustic Lagrangian tracking technique, particularly adapted to measurements in open flows, and a versatile material particles generator (in the form of soap bubbles with adjustable size and density) to characterize Lagrangian…
Flow instability and turbulent transition can be well explained using a new proposed theory--Energy gradient theory [1]. In this theory, the stability of a flow depends on the relative magnitude of energy gradient in streamwise direction…

The dimensionality of turbulence in fluid layers determines their properties. We study electromagnetically driven flows in finite depth fluid layers and show that eddy viscosity, which appears as a result of three-dimensional motions, leads…

An exact relation is derived between scalar dissipation due to molecular diffusivity and the randomness of stochastic Lagrangian trajectories for flows without bounding walls. This "Lagrangian fluctuation-dissipation relation" equates the…
Using a recent alternative form of the Kolmogorov-Monin exact relation for fully developed hydrodynamics (HD) turbulence, the incompressible energy cascade rate $\varepsilon$ is computed. Under this current theoretical framework, for…
Singularity of Navier-Stokes equations is uncovered for the first time which explains the mechanism of transition of a smooth laminar flow to turbulence. It is found that when an inflection point is formed on the velocity profile in…
We study the problem of inviscid slightly compressible fluids in a bounded domain. We find a unique solution to the initial-boundary value problem and show that it is near the analogous solution for an incompressible fluid provided the…
Chemin has shown that solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in the plane for an incompressible fluid whose initial vorticity is bounded and lies in L^2 converge in the zero-viscosity limit in the L^2-norm to a solution of the Euler…
Anomalous dissipation, the persistence of a finite mean kinetic energy dissipation as the Reynolds number tends to infinity, occurs in flows with sufficiently spatially rough velocity fields. Compressible turbulence adds further anomalous…
To date it has not been possible to prove whether or not the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations develop singular behaviour in finite time. Some possible singular scenarios, as for instance shock-waves, are very important from…

The formation and transition of patterns of two-dimensional turbulent flows observed in various geophysical systems are commonly explained in terms of statistical mechanics. Different from ordinary systems, for a two-dimensional flow, the…
