ONE of the main goals in the development of theory of chaotic dynamical system has been to make progress in understanding of turbulence. The attempts to related turbulence to chaotic motion got strong impetus from the celebrated paper by…
How predictable are turbulent flows? Here we use theoretical estimates and shell model simulations to argue that Eulerian spontaneous stochasticity, a manifestation of the non-uniqueness of the solutions to the Euler equation that is…
The Navier--Stokes (NS) equations describe fluid dynamics through a high-dimensional, nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs). Despite their fundamental importance, their behavior in turbulent regimes remains incompletely…
A new formulation of the Navier-Stokes equation, in terms of the gradient of the total mechanical energy, is derived for the time-averaged flows, and the singular point possibly existing in the Navier-Stokes equation is exactly found.…
Local analysis of the two dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is used to obtain estimates on the energy and enstrophy fluxes involving Taylor and Kraichnan length scales and the size of the domain. In the framework of zero driving force and…
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…
A theory for the evolution of a metric $g$ driven by the equations of three-dimensional continuum mechanics is developed. This metric in turn allows for the local existence of an evolving three-dimensional Riemannian manifold immersed in…
In fairly general conditions we give explicit (smooth) solutions for the potential flow. We show that, rigorously speaking, the equations of the fluid mechanics have not rotational solutions. However, within the usual approximations of an…
We review the properties of the nonlinearly dispersive Navier-Stokes-alpha (NS-alpha) model of incompressible fluid turbulence -- also called the viscous Camassa-Holm equations and the LANS equations in the literature. We first re-derive…
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 development of turbulence closure models, parametrizing the influence of small non-resolved scales on the dynamics of large resolved ones, is an outstanding theoretical challenge with vast applicative relevance. We present a closure,…
Following the Gallavotti's conjecture, Stationary states of Navier-Stokes fluids are proposed to be described equivalently by alternative equations besides the NS equation itself. We propose a model system symmetric under time-reversal…
Mathematical estimates for the Navier-Stokes equations are traditionally expressed in terms of the Grashof number, which is a dimensionless measure of the magnitude of the forcing and hence a control parameter of the system. However,…
If a fluid flow is driven by a weak Gaussian random force, the nonlinearity in the Navier-Stokes equations is negligibly small and the resulting velocity field obeys Gaussian statistics. Nonlinear effects become important as the driving…
We apply non-extensive methods to the statistical analysis of fully developed turbulent flows. Probability density functions of velocity differences at distance r obtained by extremizing the Tsallis entropies coincide well with what is…
The concept of continuous topological evolution, based upon Cartan's methods of exterior differential systems, is used to develop a topological theory of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, within which there exist processes that exhibit…
This paper provides a rigorous mathematical analysis of the global regularity problem for the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations, specifically addressing the conditions under which smooth initial data may lead to a loss of…
The extent to which statistical equilibrium theory is applicable to driven dissipative dynamics remains an important open question in many systems. We use extensive direct numerical simulations of the incompressible two-dimensional (2D)…
Numerical simulations of turbulence provide non-intrusive access to all the resolved scales, although they often invoke idealizations that can compromise realism. In contrast, experimental measurements probe the true flow with lesser…
A fundamental aspect of turbulence theory is related to the identification of realizable phase-space statistical descriptions able to reproduce in some suitable sense the stochastic fluid equations of a turbulent fluid. In particular, a…
