The recent development of a statistical model for incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) fluids based on inverse kinetic theory (IKT, 2004-2008) poses the problem of searching for particular realizations of the theory which may be relevant for…
We examine the multi--point velocity field for non--Gaussian models as a probe of non--Gaussian behavior. The two--point velocity correlation is not a useful indicator of a non--Gaussian density field, since it depends only on the power…
Turbulent convection systems are known to give rise to prominent large scale circulation. At the same time, the `background' (or `small-scale') turbulence is also highly relevant and e.g. carries the majority of the heat transport in the…
In this paper, we analyze the scaling of velocity structure functions of turbulent thermal convection. Using high-resolution numerical simulations, we show that the structure functions scale similar to those of hydrodynamic turbulence, with…
The internal interactions of fluids occur at all scales therefore the resulting force fields have no reason to be smooth and differentiable. The release of the differentiability hypothesis has important mathematical consequences, like scale…
Anomalous dynamics characterized by non-Gaussian probability distributions (PDFs) and/or temporal long-range correlations can cause subtle modifications of conventional fluctuation relations. As prototypes we study three variants of a…
We investigate the possibility to detect primordial non-Gaussianity by analysing the bulk of the probability distribution function (PDF) of late-time cosmic density fluctuations. For this purpose we devise a new method to predict the impact…
We present three numerical simulations of randomly driven, isothermal, non-magnetic, self-gravitating turbulence with different rms Mach numbers Ms and physical sizes L, but approximately the same value of the virial parameter, alpha approx…
We discuss averaged turbulence modeling of multi-scales of length for an incompressible Newtonian fluid, with the help of the maximum information principle. We suppose that there exists a function basis to decompose the turbulent…
The mean momentum and heavy mass fraction, turbulent kinetic energy, and heavy mass fraction variance fields, as well as the budgets of their transport equations, are examined at several times during the evolution of a narrowband…
The possibility to derive an equation for the mean velocity field in turbulent flow by using classical statistical mechanics is investigated. An application of projection operator technique available in the literature is used for this…
The formula for probability density functions (PDFs) has been extended to include PDF for energy dissipation rates in addition to other PDFs such as for velocity fluctuations, velocity derivatives, fluid particle accelerations, energy…
We obtain a general solution for the probability density function of wave intensities in non-stationary Wave Turbulence. The solution is expressed in terms of the wave action spectrum evolving according the the wave-kinetic equation. We…
Taylor-Couette flow -- the flow between two coaxial co- or counter-rotating cylinders -- is one of the paradigmatic systems in physics of fluids. The (dimensionless) control parameters are the Reynolds numbers of the inner and outer…
A fluctuation law of the energy in freely-decaying, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is derived within standard closure hypotheses for 3D incompressible flow. In particular, a fluctuation-dissipation relation is derived which relates…
The non-Gaussian normal diffusion, i.e., the probability distribution function (PDF) is non-Gaussian but the mean squared displacement (MSD) depends on time linearly, has been observed in particle motions. Here we show by numerical…
In homogeneous and isotropic turbulence, measurements of the longitudinal velocity derivative, $\partial_1 u_1$, make it possible to estimate a surrogate of the rate of energy dissipation per unit mass, $\epsilon$: $\epsilon_s = 15 \nu…
Protostellar jets and outflows are signatures of star formation and promising mechanisms for driving supersonic turbulence in molecular clouds. We quantify outflow-driven turbulence through three-dimensional numerical simulations using an…
This paper introduces a novel mathematical framework for examining the regularity and energy dissipation properties of solutions to the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations. By integrating Sobolev-Besov hybrid spaces, fractional differential…
The statistics of velocity fluctuations of turbulent Taylor-Couette flow are examined. The rotation rate of the inner and outer cylinder are varied while keeping the Taylor number fixed to $1.49 \times 10^{12}$…
