Classical shell models of turbulence do not display dual cascade - inverse of energy and direct of enstrophy - because they fail to reproduce the right thermal spectra. We propose here a multi-branch shell model, including a geometry…

The dual cascade of energy and enstrophy in 2D turbulence cannot easily be understood in terms of an analog to the Richardson-Kolmogorov scenario describing the energy cascade in 3D turbulence. The coherent up- and downscale fluxes points…
The tendency of turbulent flows to produce fine-scale motions from large-scale energy injection is often viewed as a scale-wise cascade of kinetic energy driven by vorticity stretching. This has been recently evaluated by an exact,…
