This is the second part to our companion paper. The novel method to quantify artificial dissipation proposed in Part 1 is further applied in turbulent channel flow at $\mathrm{Re_\tau}=180$ using various subgrid-scale models, with an…
We study the propagation of monochromatic surface waves on a turbulent flow. The flow is generated in a layer of liquid metal by an electromagnetic forcing. This forcing creates a quasi two-dimensional (2D) turbulence with strong vertical…
The influence of transversely oriented sinusoidal wall corrugation on an incompressible isothermal flow in the near-wall region, subjected to adverse pressure gradient conditions at a friction Reynolds number of $Re_{\tau} = 2500$, is…
More than 1500 exoplanets have been discovered around a large diversity of host stars (from M- to A-type stars). Tidal dissipation in their convective envelope is a key actor that shapes the orbital architecture of short-period systems and…
We derive a nonlinear acoustic wave propagation model for analysing the thermoviscous dissipation in narrow pores with wavy walls. As the nonlinear waves propagate in the thermoviscous pores, the wave-steepening effect competes with the…
Mergers of supermassive black hole binaries release peak power of up to ~10^57 erg/s in gravitational waves (GWs). As the GWs propagate through ambient gas, they induce shear and a small fraction of their power is dissipated through…
(Abridged) Turbulence in the solar wind is believed to generate an energy cascade that is supported primarily by Alfv\'en waves or Alfv\'enic fluctuations at MHD scales and by kinetic Alfv\'en waves (KAWs) at kinetic scales $k_\perp…
To achieve decarbonization targets, wind turbines are growing in hub height, rotor diameter, and are being deployed in new locations with diverse atmospheric conditions not previously seen, such as offshore. Physics-based analytical wake…
It was shown in previous work that when a gravitational wave (GW) passes through a viscous shell of matter the magnitude of the GW will be damped and there are astrohysical circumstances in which the damping is almost complete. The energy…
In this paper we investigate the qualitative behaviour of the pressure function beneath an extreme Stokes wave over infinite depth. The presence of a stagnation point at the wave-crest of an extreme Stokes wave introduces a number of…
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of water cooled from below at 0^oC and heated from above. Taking advantage of the unusual property that water's density maximum is at about 4^oC, this set-up allows us to simulate in the laboratory…
Direct numerical simulations of fully-developed turbulent channel flows with wavy walls are undertaken. The wavy walls, skewed with respect to the mean flow direction, are introduced as a means of emulating a Spatial Stokes Layer (SSL)…
This paper discusses the numerical investigation of the wall roughness effect on the supercritical water flow susceptible to heat transfer deterioration (HTD). The simulation was carried in the vertical circular pipe using the SST k-omega…
The impact of surface reflection upon transmission through and energy distributions within random media has generally been described in terms of the boundary extrapolation lengths $z_b, z_b'$ at the input and output end of an open sample,…
Corrected analytical solutions describing the enhanced phase mixing of Alfven waves propagating in divergent stratified coronal structures are presented. These show that the enhanced phase mixing mechanism can dissipate Alfven waves at…
The Ocean's turbulent energy cycle has a paradox; large-scale eddies under the control of Earth's rotation primarily transfer kinetic energy (KE) to larger scales via an inverse cascade, while a transfer to smaller scales is needed to…
Shock waves play an important role in turbulent astrophysical media by compressing the gas and dissipating the turbulent energy into the thermal energy. We here study shocks in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence using high-resolution…

A key issue in stratified turbulence theory concerns the nature of the link between D(APE), the dissipation rate of available potential energy APE, and W_{r,turbulent}, the turbulent rate of change of background gravitational potential…
Variational turbulence is among the few approaches providing rigorous results in turbulence. In addition, it addresses a question of direct practical interest, namely the rate of energy dissipation. Unfortunately, only an upper bound is…
