We show the short-time existence and nonlinear stability of vortex sheets for the nonisentropic compressible Euler equations in two spatial dimensions, based on the weakly linear stability result of Morando--Trebeschi (2008) [20]. The…
In [Isett,13], the first author proposed a strengthening of Onsager's conjecture on the failure of energy conservation for incompressible Euler flows with H\"{o}lder regularity not exceeding $1/3$. This stronger form of the conjecture…
In this paper, the scaling property of the inverse energy cascade and forward enstrophy cascade of the vorticity filed $\omega(x,y)$ in two-dimensional (2D) turbulence is analyzed. This is accomplished by applying a Hilbert-based technique,…
We revisit the issue of whether thermal fluctuations are relevant for incompressible fluid turbulence, and estimate the scale at which they become important. As anticipated by Betchov in a prescient series of works more than six decades…
We report a high-resolution numerical study of two-dimensional (2D) miscible Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) incompressible turbulence with the Boussinesq approximation. An ensemble of 100 independent realizations were performed at small Atwood number…
The Euler-Poincar\'e approach to complex fluids is used to derive multiscale equations for computationally modelling Euler flows as a basis for modelling turbulence. The model is based on a \emph{kinematic sweeping ansatz} (KSA) which…
We study the Kolomogorov two-equation model of turbulence in one space dimension. Two are the main results of the paper. First of all, we establish a local well-posedness theory in Sobolev spaces even in the case of vanishing mean turbulent…
We establish Lagrangian formulae for energy conservation anomalies involving the discrepancy between short-time two-particle dispersion forward and backward in time. These results are facilitated by a rigorous version of the…
For any $\epsilon >0$ we show the existence of continuous periodic weak solutions $v$ of the Euler equations which do not conserve the kinetic energy and belong to the space $L^1_t (C_x^{\frac{1}{3}-\epsilon})$, namely $x\mapsto v (x,t)$ is…
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…
In this paper we introduce a new PDE model in frequency space for the inertial energy cascade that reproduces the classical scaling laws of Kolmogorov's theory of turbulence. Our point of view is based upon studying the energy flux through…
Turbulence cascade has been modeled using various methods; the one we have used applies to a more exact representation of turbulence where people use the multifractal representation. The nature of the energy dissipation is usually governed…
In recent work by Isett (arXiv:1211.4065), and later by Buckmaster, De Lellis, Isett and Sz\'ekelyhidi Jr. (arXiv:1302.2815), iterative schemes where presented for constructing solutions belonging to the H\"older class $C^{1/5-\epsilon}$ of…
Ertel's potential vorticity theorem is essentially a clever combination of two conservation principles. The result is a conserved scalar $q$ that accurately reflects possible vorticity values that fluid parcels can possess and acts as a…

We consider weak solutions to the incompressible Euler equations. It is shown that energy conservation holds in any Onsager critical class in which smooth functions are dense. The argument is independent of the specific critical regularity…

The way in which kinetic energy is distributed over the multiplicity of inertial (intermediate) scales is a fundamental feature of turbulence. According to Kolmogorov's 1941 theory, on the basis of a dimensional analysis, the form of the…
We develop a rigorous theory for a structure-preserving discretisation of the incompressible Euler and Navier--Stokes equations, based on discrete exterior calculus on prismatic Delaunay--Voronoi meshes over closed Riemannian manifolds. The…
Energy conservations are studied for inhomogeneous incompressible and compressible Euler equations with general pressure law in a torus or a bounded domain. We provide sufficient conditions for a weak solution to conserve the energy. By…
