Local dissipation scales are a manifestation of the intermittent small-scale nature of turbulence. We report the first experimental evaluation of the distribution of local dissipation scales in turbulent pipe flows for a range of Reynolds…
Properties of the turbulent cascade of kinetic energy are studied using direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional hydrodynamic decaying turbulence with a moderate Reynolds number and the initial Mach number $M=1$. Compressible and…
Turbulence in stratified and rotating turbulent flows is characterized by an interplay between waves and eddies, resulting in continuous exchanges between potential and kinetic energy. Here, we study how these processes affect the turbulent…
Turbulence is ubiquitous in plasmas, leading to rich dynamics characterized by irregularity, irreversibility, energy fluctuations across many scales, and energy transfer across many scales. Another fundamental and generic feature of…
We consider the steady state statistics of turbulence in general classes of dissipative hydrodynamic equations, where the fluctuations are sustained by a random source concentrated at large scales. It is well known that in some particular…
We present an experimental investigation of intense turbulence generated by a class of low-blockage space-filling fractal square grids. We confirm the existence of a protacted production region followed by a decaying region, as first…
Magnetized turbulence is ubiquitous in many astrophysical and terrestrial plasmas but no universal theory exists. Even the detailed energy dynamics in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence are still not well understood. We present a suite of…
In this paper we investigate the properties of rapidly rotating decaying turbulence using numerical simulations and phenomenological modelling. We find that as the turbulent flow evolves in time, the Rossby number decreases to $\sim…
The free decay of non-helical relativistic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is studied numerically, and found to exhibit cascading of magnetic energy toward large scales. Evolution of the magnetic energy spectrum $P_M(k,t)$ is self-similar in…
Rotating turbulence is an example of a three-dimensional system in which an inverse cascade of energy, from the small to the large scales, can be formed. While usually understood as a byproduct of the typical bidimensionalization of…
We investigate the locality of interactions in hydrodynamic turbulence using data from a direct numerical simulation on a grid of 1024^3 points; the flow is forced with the Taylor-Green vortex. An inertial range for the energy is obtained…
We consider the statistical description of steady state fully developed incompressible fluid turbulence at the inertial range of scales in any number of spatial dimensions. We show that turbulence statistics is scale but not conformally…
Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon in solar physics, plasma physics and astrophysics and governs many properties of the flows of well-conductive fluids. Recently, conflicting spectral slopes for the inertial range of…
The scaling properties of three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence are obtained from direct numerical simulations of decaying turbulence using $512^3$ modes. The results indicate that the turbulence does not follow the…
We study the statistical properties of helicity in direct numerical simulations of fully developed homogeneous and isotropic turbulence and in a class of turbulence shell models. We consider correlation functions based on combinations of…
The effect of Kolmogorov-size spherical particles on homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is investigated using particle-resolved direct numerical simulations at a Taylor-scale Reynolds number of $150$. Four monodisperse suspensions of…
In the standard picture of fully-developed turbulence, highly intermittent hydrodynamic fields are nonlinearly coupled across scales, where local energy cascades from large scales into dissipative vortices and large density gradients.…
Two common definitions of the spatially local rate of kinetic energy cascade at some scale $\ell$ in turbulent flows are (i) the cubic velocity difference term appearing in the generalized Kolmogorov-Hill equation (GKHE) (structure function…
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…
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the majority of natural systems, including the interstellar medium, the solar corona, and the solar wind, has Reynolds numbers far exceeding the Reynolds numbers achievable in numerical experiments.…
