A vibrational model of transport properties of dense fluids assumes that solid-like oscillations of atoms around their temporary equilibrium positions dominate the dynamical picture. The temporary equilibrium positions of atoms do not form…
Periodically-driven flows are known to generate non-zero, time-averaged fluxes of heat or solute species, due to the interactions of out-of-phase velocity and temperature/concentration fields, respectively. Herein, we investigate such…
We demonstrate the sweeping effect in turbulence using numerical simulations of hydrodynamic turbulence without a mean velocity. The velocity correlation function, C(k, {\tau} ) decays with time due to the eddy viscosity. In addition, C(k,…

In the classical transport theory, the coefficients such as the diffusion, thermal conductivity and viscosity of fluid are usually expressed in a form proportional to the mean free path of molecules. We point out that this may cause a great…
Spatially resolved transport in two-dimensional quantum materials can reveal dynamics which is invisible in conventional bulk transport measurements. We predict striking patterns in spatially inhomogeneous transport just above the critical…

We study existence, uniqueness, regularity and asymptotic spatial behavior of a Navier-Stokes flow past a body moving by a time-periodic translational motion of period $T$, and with zero average. For example, $\mathscr B$ moves in an…
We observe oscillatory decay in the two-point, non-equal time, velocity correlation function of homogeneous, isotropic turbulence. We found this through a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the three dimensional Navier-Stokes ($3-D$ NS)…
We performed high-resolution numerical simulations of hydrodynamic turbulence with and without mean velocity ($U_0=0,10$), and demonstrate the sweeping effect. For $U_0=0$, the velocity correlation function, $C({\bf k},\tau)$ decays with…
We calculate numerically the normal modes of vibrations in 3D jammed packings of soft spheres as a function of the packing fraction and obtain the energy diffusivity, a spectral measure of transport that controls sound propagation and…
Turbulent convection is thought to act as an effective viscosity in damping equilibrium tidal flows, driving spin and orbital evolution in close convective binary systems. Compared to mixing-length predictions, this viscosity ought to be…
Using a nonperturbative classical model for ionic motion through one-dimensional (1D) solids, we explore how thermal lattice vibrations affect ionic transport properties. Based on analytic and numerical calculations, we find that the mean…
We describe the nature of charge transport at non-zero temperatures ($T$) above the two-dimensional ($d$) superfluid-insulator quantum critical point. We argue that the transport is characterized by inelastic collisions among thermally…
The dispersed phase in turbulence can vary from almost inviscid fluid to highly viscous fluid. By changing the viscosity of the dispersed droplet phase, we experimentally investigate how the deformability of dispersed droplets affects the…
