We present a new application of Lagrangian Perturbation Theory (LPT): the stability analysis of fluid flows. As a test case that demonstrates the framework we focus on the plane Couette flow. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equation is…
A simple analytical solution for turbulent plane Couette flow is obtained from a subset of the Navier-Stokes equations. This approach analyses the effect of the unsteady state Lagrangian diffusion of viscous momentum on the smoothed phase…
The decay of turbulent and laminar oblique bands in the lower transitional range of plane Couette flow is studied by means of direct numerical simulations of the Navier--Stokes equations. We consider systems that are extended enough for…
Methods of dynamical system's theory are used for numerical study of transport and mixing of passive particles (water masses, temperature, salinity, pollutants, etc.) in simple kinematic ocean models composed with the main Eulerian coherent…
In Lagrangian turbulence one is faced with the puzzle that 2D Navier-Stokes flows are nearly as intermittent as in three dimensions although no intermittency is present in the inverse cascade in 2D Eulerian turbulence. In addition, an…
This work employs for the first time invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations to study the interaction between finite-size particles and near-wall coherent structures. We consider horizontal plane Couette flow and focus on…
When subcritical shear flows transition to turbulence, laminar and turbulent flow often coexists in space, giving rise to turbulent-laminar patterns. Most prominent are regular stripe patterns with large-scale periodicity and oblique…
Streamwise and quasi-streamwise elongated structures have been shown to play a significant role in turbulent shear flows. We model the mean behavior of fully turbulent plane Couette flow using a streamwise constant projection of the Navier…
Most researches on fluid dynamics are mostly dedicated to obtain the solutions of Navier-Stokes equation which governs fluid flow with particular boundary conditions and approximations. We propose an alternative approach to deal with fluid…
The Lagrangian and Eulerian transversal velocity structure functions of fully developed fluid turbulence are found basing on the Navier-Stokes equation. The structure functions are shown to obey the scaling relations inside the inertial…
On its way to turbulence, plane Couette flow - the flow between counter-translating parallel plates - displays a puzzling steady oblique laminar-turbulent pattern. We approach this problem via Galerkin modelling of the Navier-Stokes…
Invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations play an important role in the spatiotemporally chaotic dynamics of turbulent shear flows. Despite the significance of these solutions, their identification remains a computational…
We present a unified variational mechanics framework for cavitating turbulent flows and structural motions via a stabilized finite element formulation. To model the finite mass transfer rate in cavitation phenomena, we employ the homogenous…
We discuss chaotic advection in three-dimensional unsteady incompressible laminar flow, and analyse in detail the most important novel advection phenomenon in these flows; the global dispersion of passive scalars in flows with two slow and…
A simplified Lagrangean closure for the Navier-Stokes equation is used to study the production of intermittency in the inertial range of three dimensional turbulence. This is done using localized wavepackets following the fluid rather than…
Several new families of nonlinear three-dimensional travelling wave solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation, also known as exact coherent states, are computed for Newtonian plane Poiseuille flow. The symmetries and streak/vortex structures…
We model Lagrangian lateral mixing and transport of passive scalars in meandering oceanic jet currents by two-dimensional advection equations with a kinematic stream function with a time-dependent amplitude of a meander imposed. The…
We study the transport of a passive tracer particle in a steady strongly mixing flow with a nonzero mean velocity. We show that there exists a probability measure under which the particle Lagrangian velocity process is stationary. This…
The paper examines the issue of stability of Poiseuille type flows in regime of compressible Navier-Stokes equations in a three dimensional finite pipe-like domain. We prove the existence of stationary solutions with inhomogeneous Navier…
We prove a variational principle for stochastic Lagrangian Navier-Stokes trajectories on manifolds. We study the behaviour of such trajectories concerning stability as well as rotation between particles; the two-dimensional torus case is…
