We develop a stochastic model for the velocity gradients dynamics along a Lagrangian trajectory. Comparing with different attempts proposed in the literature, the present model, at the cost of introducing a free parameter known in…
A semi-empirical three-dimensional model of turbulence in the approximation of the far turbulent wake behind a body of revolution in a passive stratified medium is considered. The sought quantities are the kinetic turbulent energy, kinetic…
This paper presents a simple model for such processes as chaos spreading or turbulence spillover into stable regions. In this simple model the essential transport occurs via inelastic resonant interactions of waves on a lattice. The process…
Waves propagating through weakly disordered smooth linear media undergo a universal phenomenon called branched flow. Branched flow has been observed and studied experimentally in various systems by considering coherent waves. Recent…
We study the dynamics of inertial particles in turbulence using datasets obtained from both direct numerical simulations and laboratory experiments of turbulent swirling flows. By analyzing time series of particle velocity increments at…
Correct prediction of particle transport by surface waves is crucial in many practical applications such as search and rescue or salvage operations and pollution tracking and clean-up efforts. Recent results have indicated transport by…
In this paper, we study both the direct and inverse random source problems associated with the multi-term time-fractional diffusion-wave equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion. Regarding the direct problem, the well-posedness is…
We review recent progress in modeling the probability distribution of wave heights in the deep ocean as a function of a small number of parameters describing the local sea state. Both linear and nonlinear mechanisms of rogue wave formation…
High-resolution numerical simulations are utilized to examine isotropic turbulence in a compressible fluid when long wavelength velocity fluctuations approach light speed. Spectral analysis reveals an inertial sub-range of relativistic…
The statistics of power fluctuations are studied in simulations of two-dimensional turbulence in both inverse (energy) and direct (enstrophy) cascade regimes from both Lagrangian and Eulerian perspectives. The probability density function…
Energy dynamics calculations in a 3D fluid simulation of drift wave turbulence in the linear Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [W. Gekelman et al., Rev. Sci. Inst. 62, 2875 (1991)] illuminate processes that drive and dissipate the turbulence.…
The instability and nonlinear evolution of directional ocean waves is investigated numerically by means of simulations of the governing kinetic equation for narrow-band surface waves. Our simulation results reveal the onset of the…
The Kolmogorov-Zakharov spectrum predicted by the Weak Turbulence Theory remains elusive for wave turbulence of flexural waves at the surface of an thin elastic plate. We report a direct measurement of the nonlinear timescale $T_{NL}$…
Elastic turbulence is the chaotic fluid motion resulting from elastic instabilities due to the addition of polymers in small concentrations at very small Reynolds ($\mbox{Re}$) numbers. Our direct numerical simulations show that elastic…
In this paper, we develop a model to describe the generalized wave-particle instability in a quasi-neutral plasma. We analyze the quasi-linear diffusion equation for particles by expressing an arbitrary unstable and resonant wave mode as a…
Gravitational waves (GWs) generated by a first-order phase transition at the electroweak scale are detectable by future space-based detectors like LISA. The lifetime of the resulting shock waves plays an important role in determining the…
We present a theoretical attack on the classical problem of intermittency and anomalous scaling in turbulence. Our focus is on an ideal situation: high Reynolds number isotropic turbulence driven by steady large scale forcing. Moreover, the…
This paper introduces a measure or statistics invariant through the flow of the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation and studies its stability, regarding a specific class of perturbation and in the idea of the wave turbulence theory.
Intermittency in fluid turbulence can be evidentiated through the analysis of Probability Distribution Functions (PDF) of velocity fluctuations, which display a strong non-gaussian behavior at small scales. In this paper we investigate the…
We introduce and systematically investigate the generation of dispersive shock waves, which arise naturally in physical settings such as optical waveguide arrays and superfluids confined within optical lattices. The underlying physically…
