We propose a novel Particle Flow Map (PFM) method to enable accurate long-range advection for incompressible fluid simulation. The foundation of our method is the observation that a particle trajectory generated in a forward simulation…
A kinematic approach for the identification of flow instabilities is proposed. By defining a flow instability in the Lagrangian frame as the increased folding of lines of fluid particles, subtle perturbations and unstable growth thereof are…
FTLE (Finite Time Lyapunov Exponent) computation is one of the standard approaches to Lagrangian flow analysis. The main features of interest in FTLE fields are ridges that represent hyperbolic Lagrangian Coherent Structures. FTLE ridges…
Objective Eulerian Coherent Structures (OECSs) and instantaneous Lyapunov exponents (iLEs) govern short-term material transport in fluid flows as Lagrangian Coherent Structures and the Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent do over longer times.…
Fluid deformation controls myriad processes in random flows including mixing and dispersion, stress development in complex fluids, colloid transport and deposition, droplet breakup and emulsification, fluid-structure interaction, chemical…
The extraordinary aerial agility of hummingbirds and insects continues to inspire the design of flapping-wing drones. To replicate and analyze such flight, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations that couple flow solvers with rigid…
We provide an implementation of the unstructured Finite-Volume Arbitrary Lagrangian / Eulerian (ALE) Interface-Tracking method for simulating incompressible, immiscible two-phase flows as an OpenFOAM module. In addition to…
In the present paper, we study transport properties of coherent vortices. These structures are formed by tubes of fluid parcels that complete similar material rotation. Here, we demonstrate that time $t_0$ positions of such physical…
Understanding, quantifying and controlling transport and mixing processes are central in the study of fluid flows. Many different Lagrangian approaches have been proposed for detecting organizing flow structures that determine material…
A new method to describe hyperbolic patterns in two dimensional flows is proposed. The method is based on the Covariant Lyapunov Vectors (CLVs), which have the properties to be covariant with the dynamics, and thus being mapped by the…
The purpose of this paper is to examine the Lagrangian stochastic modeling of the fluid velocity seen by inertial particles in a nonhomogeneous turbulent flow. A new Langevin-type model, compatible with the transport equation of the drift…
Classical Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) of long-time processes with strongly separated time scales is computationally extremely demanding if not impossible. Consequently, the state-of-the-art description of such systems is not capable…
Advective transport of scalar quantities through surfaces is of fundamental importance in many scientific applications. From the Eulerian perspective of the surface it can be quantified by the well-known integral of the flux density. The…
An ideal compressible fluid is considered, with an equilibrium density being a given function of coordinates due to presence of some static external forces. The slow flows in such system, which do not disturb the density, are investigated…
A deterministic multi-scale dynamical system is introduced and discussed as prototype model for relative dispersion in stationary, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence. Unlike stochastic diffusion models, here trajectory transport and…

We study the dynamics near the unstable Lagrangian points in galactic bar models using dynamical system tools in order to determine the global morphology of a barred galaxy. We aim at the case of non-autonomous models, in particular with…
Coherent structures (CS) are known to be part of the foundations of turbulent flow dynamics. For a long time, their appearance was believed to be chaotic and unorganized. However, it has been demonstrated through numerical simulations and…
