The statistics of the velocity gradient tensor in turbulent flows are of both theoretical and practical importance. The Lagrangian view provides a privileged perspective for studying the dynamics of turbulence in general, and of the…
The understanding of the dynamics of the velocity gradients in turbulent flows is critical to understanding various non-linear turbulent processes. The pressure-Hessian and the viscous-Laplacian govern the evolution of the…
The Lagrangian dynamics of the velocity gradient tensor A in isotropic and homogeneous turbulence depend on the joint action of the self-streching term and the pressure Hessian. Existing closures for pressure effects in terms of A are…
Understanding the non-local pressure contributions and viscous effects on the small-scale statistics remains one of the central challenges in the study of homogeneous isotropic turbulence. Here we address this issue by studying the impact…
The local statistical and geometric structure of three-dimensional turbulent flow can be described by properties of the velocity gradient tensor. A stochastic model is developed for the Lagrangian time evolution of this tensor, in which the…
In order to model pressure and viscous terms in the equation for the Lagrangian dynamics of the velocity gradient tensor in turbulent flows, Chevillard & Meneveau (Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 174501, 2006) introduced the Recent Fluid Deformation…
A new phenomenological model of turbulent fluctuations is constructed by considering the Lagrangian dynamics of 4 points (the tetrad). The closure of the equations of motion is achieved by postulating an anisotropic, i.e. tetrad shape…
Motivated by results from recent particle tracking experiments in turbulence (Xu et al., Nat. Phys. 7, 709 (2011)), we study the Lagrangian time correlations of vorticity alignments with the three eigenvectors of the deformation-rate…
The equation for the fluid velocity gradient along a Lagrangian trajectory immediately follows from the Navier-Stokes equation. However, such an equation involves two terms that cannot be determined from the velocity gradient along the…
We develop a stochastic model for the velocity gradients dynamics along a Lagrangian trajectory. Comparing with different attempts proposed in the literature, the present model, at the cost of introducing a free parameter known in…
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…
The orientation dynamics of small anisotropic tracer particles in turbulent flows is studied using direct numerical simulation (DNS) and results are compared with Lagrangian stochastic models. Generalizing earlier analysis for axisymmetric…
Analyzing the fluid velocity gradients in a Lagrangian reference frame provides an insightful way to study the small-scale dynamics of turbulent flows, and further insight is provided by considering the equations in the eigenframe of the…
We present results from a systematic direct-numerical simulation study of pressure fluctuations in an unforced, incompressible, homogeneous, and isotropic, three-dimensional turbulent fluid. At cascade completion, isosurfaces of low…
We formulate and implement the Euler equations with SGS dynamics and provide numerical tests of an SGS turbulence energy model that predicts the turbulent pressure of unresolved velocity fluctuations and the rate of dissipation for highly…
Turbulent flows consist of a wide range of interacting scales. Since the scale range increases as some power of the flow Reynolds number, a faithful simulation of the entire scale range is prohibitively expensive at high Reynolds numbers.…
Direct numerical simulation of turbulence at realistic Reynolds numbers is still beyond current computational capability, necessitating models that reduce the number of resolved spatial scales. Motivated by phenomenology and recent…
We developed a novel autonomously dynamic nonlocal turbulence model for the large and very large eddy simulation (LES, VLES) of the homogeneous isotropic turbulent flows (HIT). The model is based on a generalized (integer-to-noninteger)…
The modelling of fluid particle accelerations in homogeneous, isotropic turbulence in terms of second-order stochastic models for the Lagrangian velocity is considered. The basis for the Reynolds model (A. M. Reynolds, \textit{Phys. Rev.…
In this work, we discuss some points relevant for stochastic modelling of one- and two-phase turbulent flows. In the framework of stochastic modelling, also referred to PDF approach, we propose a new Langevin model including all viscosity…
