We find strong evidence for intermittency in forced two dimensional (2D) turbulence in a flowing soap film experiment. In the forward enstrophy cascade the structure function scaling exponents are nearly indistinguishable from 3D studies.…
We use momentum transfer arguments to predict the friction factor $f$ in two-dimensional turbulent soap-film flows with rough boundaries (an analogue of three-dimensional pipe flow) as a function of Reynolds number Re and roughness $r$,…
We present experimental evidence of statistical conformal invariance in isocontours of fluid thickness in experiments of two-dimensional turbulence using soap films. A Schlieren technique is used to visualize regions of the flow with…
This thesis presents an experimental study of the inverse energy cascade as it occurs in an electromagnetically forced soap film. It focuses on characterizing important features of the inverse cascade such as it's range, how energy is…
We study the direct enstrophy cascade in a two-dimensional flow generated in an electromagnetically driven thin layer of fluid. Due to the presence of bottom friction, the energy spectrum deviates from the classical Kraichnan prediction…
Working directly from the 3D magnetohydrodynamical equations and entirely in physical scales we formulate a scenario wherein the enstrophy flux exhibits cascade-like properties. In particular we show the inertially-driven transport of…
We present a detailed direct numerical simulation (DNS) designed to investigate the combined effects of walls and Ekman friction on turbulence in forced soap films. We concentrate on the forward-cascade regime and show how to extract the…
Velocity differences in the direct enstrophy cascade of two-dimensional turbulence are correlated with the underlying flow topology. The statistics of the transverse and longitudinal velocity differences are found to be governed by…
Insight into the problem of two-dimensional turbulence can be obtained by an analogy with a heat conduction network. It allows the identification of an entropy function associated to the enstrophy dissipation and that fluctuates around a…
We follow the diffusive motion of colloidal particles in soap films with varying $h/d$, where $h$ is the thickness of the film and $d$ the diameter of the particles. The hydrodynamics of these films are determined by looking at the…
We study inertial-range statistics in the direct enstrophy cascade of two-dimensional turbulence via a numerical simulation of the forced Navier-Stokes equation. In particular, we obtain the distribution of the enstrophy flux and of the…
The forward enstrophy cascade in two-dimensional quantum turbulence in a superfluid film connected to a thermal bath is investigated using a Fokker-Planck equation based on Kosterlitz-Thouless renormalization. The steady-state cascade is…
Deformation of material lines drives transport and dissipation in many industrial and natural flows. Here we report an exact Eulerian formula for the stretching rate of a material line, also known as the topological entropy, in a prototype…
The Reynolds number dependency of intermittency for 2D turbulence is studied in a flowing soap film. The Reynolds number used here is the Taylor microscale Reynolds number R_{\lambda}, which ranges from 20 to 800. Strong intermittency is…
We observe tracer particles diffusing in soap films to measure the two-dimensional (2D) viscous properties of the films. We make soap films with a variety of water-glycerol mixtures and of differing thicknesses. The single-particle…
We generalize the `filtering spectrum' [1] to probe scales along different directions by spatial coarse-graining. This multi-dimensional filtering spectrum quantifies the spectral content of flows that are not necessarily homogeneous. From…
The first paper of this series [J. Chem. Phys. 158, 034103 (2023)] demonstrated that excess entropy scaling holds for both fine-grained and corresponding coarse-grained (CG) systems. Despite its universality, a more exact determination of…
We inquire about the properties of 2d Navier-Stokes turbulence simultaneously forced at small and large scales. The background motivation comes by observational results on atmospheric turbulence. We show that the velocity field is amenable…
In this work we investigate, by means of direct numerical simulations, how rotation affects the bi-dimensionalization of a turbulent flow. We study a thin layer of fluid, forced by a two-dimensional forcing, within the framework of the…
We discuss two possible scenario for the direct cascade in two dimensional turbulent systems in presence of friction which differ by the presence or not of enstrophy dissipation in the inviscid limit.They are distinguished by the existence…
