Two-dimensional statistically stationary isotropic turbulence with an imposed uniform scalar gradient is investigated. Dimensional arguments are presented to predict the inertial range scaling of the turbulent scalar flux spectrum in both…
In many simulations of turbulent flows the viscous forces $\nu\nabla^2 {\bf u}$ are replaced by a hyper-viscous term $-\nu_p(-\nabla^2)^{p}{\bf u}$ in order to suppress the effect of viscosity at the large scales. In this work we examine…
The central problem of fully developed turbulence is the energy cascading process. It has revisited all attempts at a full physical understanding or mathematical formulation. The main reason for this failure are related to the large…
High resolution direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional turbulence in stationary conditions are presented. The development of an energy-enstrophy double cascade is studied and found to be compatible with the classical Kraichnan…
We investigate dissipative anomalies in a turbulent fluid governed by the compressible Navier-Stokes equation. We follow an exact approach pioneered by Onsager, which we explain as a non-perturbative application of the principle of…
Stratification can cause turbulence spectra to deviate from Kolmogorov's isotropic -5/3 power-law scaling in the universal equilibrium range at high Reynolds numbers. However, a consensus has not been reached with regard to the exact shape…
We present experimental evidence for a double cascade of kinetic energy in a statistically stationary rotating turbulence experiment. Turbulence is generated by a set of vertical flaps which continuously injects velocity fluctuations…
In this paper, using Pao's conjecture [Y.-H. Pao, Phys. Fluids 11, 1371 (1968)], we derive expressions for the spectra and fluxes of kinetic energy and enstrophy for two-dimensional (2D) forced turbulence that extend beyond the inertial…
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…
We consider the inviscid generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equation (gSQG) in a patch setting, where the parameter $\alpha \in (1,2)$. The cases $\alpha = 0$ and $\alpha = 1$ correspond to 2d Euler and SQG respectively, and our choice…
In this paper, we analyze the sea surface temperature obtained from the global drifter program. The experimental Fourier power spectrum shows a two-decade power-law behavior as $E_{\theta}(f)\propto f^{-7/3}$ in the frequency domain.…
We revisit the two-dimensional SABRA model, in the light of recent results of Frisch {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 108}, 074501 (2012)] and examine, systematically, the interplay between equilibrium states and cascade (turbulent)…
Turbulent flows driven by a vertically invariant body force were proven to become exactly two-dimensional above a critical rotation rate, using upper bound theory. This transition in dimensionality of a turbulent flow has key consequences…
We study a viscous two-layer quasi-geostrophic beta-plane model that is forced by imposition of a spatially uniform vertical shear in the eastward (zonal) component of the layer flows, or equivalently a spatially uniform north-south…
The properties of decaying turbulence is studied with the help of a Generalized Hydrodynamic (GHD) fluid model in the context of two dimensional visco - elastic medium such as a strongly coupled dusty plasma system. For the incompressible…
We establish the existence of quasi-periodic traveling wave solutions for the $\beta$-plane equation on $\mathbb{T}^2$ with a large quasi-periodic traveling wave external force. These solutions exhibit large sizes, which depend on the…
We study the direct enstrophy cascade at small spatial scales in statistically stationary forced-dissipated 2D Navier-Stokes equations subject to the Coriolis force in the $\beta$-plane approximation. We provide sufficient conditions…
The field theoretic renormalization group is applied to the stochastic Navier--Stokes equation that describes fully developed fluid turbulence. The complete two-loop calculation of the renormalization constant, the $\beta$ function, the…
An enstrophy cascade is exhibited for the Navier-Stokes equations in physical scales independently of boundary conditions under physically reasonable assumptions on the flow.
We consider the asymptotic behavior of the surface quasi-geostrophic equation, subject to a small external force. Under suitable assumptions on the forcing, we first construct the steady states and we provide a number of useful a posteriori…
