We consider advection of a passive scalar theta(t,r) by an incompressible large-scale turbulent flow. In the framework of the Kraichnan model the whole PDF's (probability distribution functions) for the single-point statistics of theta and…
This is an introductory course on fully developed turbulence. It discusses: in Lecture 1: the Navier Stokes equations, existence of solutions, statistical description, energy balance and cascade picture; in Lecture 2: the Kolmogorov theory…
A simple model of a passive scalar quantity advected by a Gaussian non-solenoidal ("compressible") velocity field is considered. Large order asymptotes of quantum-field expansions are investigated by instanton approach. The existence of…
Series of lectures on statistical turbulence written for amateurs but not experts. Elementary aspects and problems of turbulence in two and three dimensional Navier-Stokes equation are introduced. A few properties of scalar turbulence and…
The anomalous scaling behavior of the n-th order correlation functions ${\cal F}_n$ of the Kraichnan model of turbulent passive scalar advection is believed to be dominated by the homogeneous solutions (zero-modes) of the Kraichnan equation…
We present the first study of the dynamic scaling or multiscaling of passive-scalar and passive-vector turbulence. For the Kraichnan version of passive-scalar and passive-vector turbulence we show analytically, in both Eulerian and…
The Lagrangian view of passive scalar turbulence has recently produced interesting results and interpretations. Innovations in theory, experiments, simulations and data analysis of Lagrangian turbulence are reviewed here in brief. Part of…
The paper revisits the compressible Kraichnan model of turbulent advection in order to derive explicit quantitative relations between scaling exponents and Lagrangian particle configuration geometry.
We revisit the well-known problem of multiscaling in substances passively advected by homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flows or passive scalar turbulence. To that end we propose a two-parameter continuum hydrodynamic model for an…
We discuss application of methods from the Kraichnan model of turbulent advection to the study of non-equilibrium concentration fluctuations arising during diffusion in liquid mixtures at high Schmidt numbers. This approach treats nonlinear…
This is a set of four lectures devoted to simple ideas about turbulent transport, a ubiquitous non-equilibrium phenomenon. In the course similar to that given by the author in 2006 in Warwick [45], we discuss lessons which have been learned…
A Lagrangian method for the numerical simulation of the Kraichnan passive scalar model is introduced. The method is based on Monte--Carlo simulations of tracer trajectories, supplemented by a point-splitting procedure for coinciding points.…
The paradigmatic model of the directed percolation process is studied near its second order phase transition between an absorbing and an active state. The model is first expressed in a form of Langevin equation and later rewritten into a…
A compressible generalization of the Kraichnan model (Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 1016 (1994)) of passive scalar advection is considered. The dynamical role of compressibility on the intermittency of the scalar statistics is investigated for the…
The anomalous scaling in the Kraichnan model of advection of the passive scalar by a random velocity field with non-smooth spatial behavior is traced down to the presence of slow resonance-type collective modes of the stochastic evolution…
We consider the advection of a passive scalar by a divergence free random Gaussian field, white in time and H\"older regular in space (rough Kraichnan's model), a well established synthetic model of passive scalar turbulence. By studying…
The steady state existence problem for Kraichnan advected passive vector models is considered for isotropic and anisotropic initial values in arbitrary dimension. The model includes the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations, linear pressure…
A study of anomalous scaling in models of passive scalar advection in terms of singular coherent structures is proposed. The stochastic dynamical system considered is a shell model reformulation of Kraichnan model. We extend the method…
We present results from direct numerical simulations of the Kraichnan model for passive scalar advection by a rapidly-varying random scaling velocity field for intermediate values of the velocity scaling exponent. These results are compared…
Kraichnan's model of passive scalar advection in which the driving velocity field has fast temporal decorrelation is studied as a case model for understanding the appearance of anomalous scaling in turbulent systems. We demonstrate how the…
