The strength of the nonlinearity is measured in decaying two-dimensional turbulence, by comparing its value to that found in a Gaussian field. It is shown how the nonlinearity drops following a two-step process. First a fast relaxation is…
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…
Large-eddy simulation developments and validations are presented for an improved simulation of turbulent internal flows. Numerical methods are proposed according to two competing criteria: numerical qualities (precision and spectral…
The Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach is adapted to the study of plasma microturbulence in a fully three-dimensional gyrokinetic system. Ion temperature gradient driven turbulence is studied with the {\sc GENE} code for both a standard…
The scale-invariant inverse energy cascade is a hallmark of 2D turbulence, with its theoretical energy spectrum observed in both direct numerical simulations (DNS) and laboratory experiments. Under this scale-invariance assumption, the…
Large-eddy simulation (LES) of a turbulent flow through an array of building-like obstacles is an idealized model to study transport of contaminants in the urban atmospheric boundary layer (UABL). A reasonably accurate LES prediction of…
Classical shell models of turbulence do not display dual cascade - inverse of energy and direct of enstrophy - because they fail to reproduce the right thermal spectra. We propose here a multi-branch shell model, including a geometry…
Standard eddy viscosity models, while robust, cannot represent backscatter and have severe difficulties with complex turbulence not at statistical equilibrium. This report gives a new derivation of eddy viscosity models from an equation for…
A phenomenological two-fluid model of the (time-reversible) spectrally-truncated 3D Euler equation is proposed. The thermalized small scales are first shown to be quasi-normal. The effective viscosity and thermal diffusion are then…
Based on ideas by Woodward et al., a subgrid scale model that is applicable to highly compressible turbulence is presented. Applying the subgrid scale model in large eddy simulations of forced supersonic turbulence, the bottleneck effect is…
Turbulent flows exhibit intriguing energy transfers. In this paper, we compute the renormalized viscosities, mode-to-mode energy transfers, energy fluxes, and shell-to-shell energy transfers for the two-dimensional (2D) and…
A version of the globally convergent convexification numerical method is constructed for the problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography in the 2D case. An important element of this version is the presence of the viscosity term. Global…
The stability of flows in layers of finite thickness $H$ is examined against small scale three dimensional (3D) perturbations and large scale two-dimensional (2D) perturbations. The former provide an indication of a forward transfer of…
We study the dynamics of a flexible fiber freely moving in a three-dimensional fully-developed turbulent field and present a phenomenological theory to describe the interaction between the fiber elasticity and the turbulent flow. This…
Numerical simulation of viscoelastic flows is challenging because of the hyperbolic nature of viscoelastic constitutive equations. Despite their superior accuracy and efficiency, pseudo-spectral methods require the introduction of…
We numerically study two-dimensional quantum turbulence with a Gross--Pitaevskii model. With the energy initially accumulated at large scale, quantum turbulence with many quantized vortex points is generated. Due to the lack of enstrophy…
Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models (such as k-\epsilon models) are still widely used for engineering applications because of their relatively simplicity and robustness. In fully developed plane channel flow (i.e. the…
A particular interest on two-dimensional turbulence is the inverse energy cascade from small to large sales, which leads to an energy condensation accompanied by the formation of large-scale vortical structures. Indeed, such a phenomenon is…
We present a Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) study of buoyancy-driven bubbly flows in the presence of large scale driving that generates turbulence. On increasing the turbulence intensity: (a) the bubble trajectories become more curved,…
Diapycnical eddy diffusivities are formulated from physical relations according to a simple fact that the different formulas are identical for the same parameter. It is found that the dispassion ratio \Gamma is a crucial parameter. When it…
