Quadratic flows have the unique property of uniform strain and are commonly used in turbulence modeling and hydrodynamic analysis. While previous application focused on two-dimensional homogeneous fluid, this study examines the geometric…
We numerically investigate the flow structure of periodic steady water waves of fixed relative mass flux propagating on rotational flows with piece-wise constant vorticity. We show that for wave solutions along the global bifurcation…
The long-time behavior is one of the most fundamental properties of dynamical systems. Poincar\'e studied the Poisson stability to capture the property of whether points return arbitrarily near the initial positions. Birkhoff studied the…
We describe necessary and sufficient conditions for an orientation preserving fixed point free planar homeomorphism that preserves the standard Reeb foliation to embed in a planar flow that leaves the foliation invariant.
We investigate the particle trajectories in an irrotational shallow water flow over a flat bed as periodic waves propagate on the water's free surface. Within the linear water wave theory, we show that there are no closed orbits for the…
We study Poincar\'e recurrence for flows and observations of flows. For Anosov flow, we prove that the recurrence rates are linked to the local dimension of the invariant measure. More generally, we give for the recurrence rates for the…
The aim of this paper is to study dynamical and topological properties of a flow in the region of influence of an isolated non-saddle set or a $W$-set in a manifold. These are certain classes of compact invariant sets in whose vicinity the…
Planar linear flows are a one-parameter family, with the parameter $\hat{\alpha}\in [-1,1]$ being a measure of the relative magnitudes of extension and vorticity; $\hat{\alpha} = -1$, $0$ and $1$ correspond to solid-body rotation, simple…
To investigate the topological structure of Morse flows with a sink on the 2-sphere we use the planar tree as complete topological invariant of the flow. We give a list of all planar tree with at least 7 edges. We use a list of rooted…
We revisit the canonical Rayleigh-Taylor instability and investigate the case of a thin film of fluid upon the underside of an inclined plane. The presence of a natural flow along the plane competes with the conventional droplet forming…
In this paper, we prove that finite-dimensional topological flows without fixed points and having a countable number of periodic orbits, have the small flow boundary property. This enables us to answer positively a question of Bowen and…
We study wave-current interactions in two-dimensional water flows of constant vorticity over a flat bed. For large-amplitude periodic traveling waves that propagate at the water surface in the same direction as the underlying current…
We introduce a notion of stability for non-autonomous Hamiltonian flows on two-dimensional annular surfaces. This notion of stability is designed to capture the sustained twisting of particle trajectories. The main Theorem is applied to…
The small-scale statistical properties of velocity circulation in classical homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flows are assessed through a modeling framework that brings together the multiplicative cascade and the structural descriptions…
While several articles have been written on water waves on flows with constant vorticity, little is known about the extent to which a nonconstant vorticity affects the flow structure, such as the appearance of stagnation points. In order to…
We identify incompressible planar linear flows that are generalizations of the well known one-parameter family characterized by the ratio of in-plane extension to (out-of-plane) vorticity. The latter `canonical' family is classified into…
In this paper, we define the recurrence and "non-wandering" for decompositions. The following inclusion relations hold for codimension one foliations on closed $3$-manifolds: $\{$minimal$\} \sqcup \{$compact$\}$ $\subsetneq$ $\{$pointwise…
By studying the weak closure of multidimensional off-diagonal self-joinings we provide a criterion for non-isomorphism of a flow with its inverse, hence the non-reversibility of a flow. This is applied to special flows over rigid…
As stated in the title, the present research proposes a mathematical definition of laminar and turbulent flows, i.e., a definition that may be used to conceive and prove mathematical theorems about such flows. The definition is based on an…
A recent prominent result asserts that steady incompressible Euler flows strictly away from stagnation in a two-dimensional infinitely long strip must be shear flows. On the other hand, flows with stagnation points, very challenging in…
