We present a new variational principle for the gyrokinetic system, similar to the Maxwell-Vlasov action presented in Ref. 1. The variational principle is in the Eulerian frame and based on constrained variations of the phase space fluid…

In Lagrangian turbulence one is faced with the puzzle that 2D Navier-Stokes flows are nearly as intermittent as in three dimensions although no intermittency is present in the inverse cascade in 2D Eulerian turbulence. In addition, an…
Fluid deformation and strain history are central to wide range of fluid mechanical phenomena ranging from fluid mixing and particle transport to stress development in complex fluids and the formation of Lagrangian coherent structures…
Linear fluctuating hydrodynamics is a useful and versatile tool for describing fluids, as well as other systems with conserved fields, on a mesoscopic scale. In one spatial dimension, however, transport is anomalous, which requires to…
