A new statistical field-theory model of isotropic turbulence is introduced. The model renormalizes the effects of turbulent stresses into a velocity-gradient-dependent random force. The model is well-defined within the context of the…
We review the Parisi-Frisch MultiFractal formalism for Navier--Stokes turbulence with particular emphasis on the issue of statistical fluctuations of the dissipative scale. We do it for both Eulerian and Lagrangian Turbulence. We also show…
In this perspective, we consider the development of statistical hydrodynamics, focusing on the way in which the intrinsic stochasticity of turbulent phenomena was identified and is being explored. A major purpose of our discussion is to…
We present a new design for a stirred tank that is forced by two parallel planar arrays of randomly actuated synthetic jets. This arrangement creates turbulence at high Reynolds number with low mean flow. Most importantly, it exhibits a…
ONE of the main goals in the development of theory of chaotic dynamical system has been to make progress in understanding of turbulence. The attempts to related turbulence to chaotic motion got strong impetus from the celebrated paper by…
We present high-resolution direct numerical simulations of turbulent three-dimensional Rayleigh-Benard convection with a focus on the Lagrangian properties of the flow. The volume is a Cartesian slab with an aspect ratio of four bounded by…
Breakup of small solid aggregates in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is studied theoretically and by using Direct Numerical Simulations at high Reynolds number, Re_{\lambda} \simeq 400. We show that turbulent fluctuations of the…
This article establishes a first-principles statistical field theory of fully developed isotropic turbulence. Applying an exact Helmholtz decomposition to the local angular momentum field ($\Lvec = \rvec \times \uvec$) reveals a segregation…
Turbulence is a complex system exhibiting both universal statistical features and prominent coherent structures. We model turbulence using coherent vortices distributed within a multi-scale statistical framework, termed `woven turbulence'.…
This two-part review summarizes interstellar turbulence and its implications. The first part begins with diagnostics and energy sources. Turbulence theory is considered in detail, including the basic fluid equations, solenoidal and…
MHD Turbulence is a critical component of the current paradigms of star formation, particle transport, magnetic reconnection and evolution of the ISM. Progress on this difficult subject is made via numerical simulations and observational…
A stochastic EDQNM approach is used to investigate self-similar decaying isotropic turbulence at high Reynolds number ($400 \leq Re_\lambda \leq 10^4$). The realistic energy spectrum functional form recently proposed by Meyers & Meneveau is…
Local isotropy, or the statistical isotropy of small scales, is one of the basic assumptions underlying Kolmogorov's theory of universality of small-scale turbulent motion. While, until the mid-seventies or so, local isotropy was accepted…
Turbulence governed by the Navier-Stokes equations shows a tendency to evolve towards a state in which the nonlinearity is diminished. In fully developed turbulence this tendency can be measured by comparing the variance of the nonlinear…
In a series of recent works it was proposed that shell models of turbulence exhibit inertial range scaling exponents that depend on the nature of the dissipative mechanism. If true, and if one could imply a similar phenomenon to…
We investigate the single-point probability density function of the velocity in three-dimensional stationary and decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence. To this end we apply the statistical framework of the Lundgren-Monin-Novikov…
The statistical geometry of dispersing Lagrangian clusters of four particles (tetrahedra) is studied by means of high-resolution direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional homogeneous isotropic turbulence. We give the first evidence…
We report numerical investigations of wave turbulence in a vibrating plate. The possibility to implement advanced measurement techniques and long time numerical simulations makes this system extremely valuable for wave turbulence studies.…
We present a numerical investigation of two-dimensional decaying turbulence in the Lagrangian framework. Focusing on single particle statistics, we investigate Lagrangian trajectories in a freely evolving turbulent velocity field. The…
The decay of homogeneous isotropic turbulence in a variable viscosity fluid with a viscosity ratio up to 15 is analyzed by means of highly resolved direct numerical simulations (DNS) at low Reynolds numbers. The question addressed by the…
